You're operating under a false assumption.

I know full-well what the RCC thinks of reformers and Protestants and all those who do not bow to Rome. I don't care what they think. And I don't care what they say about me or my church.

Unlike the RCs on this forum, I don't demand that anyone stop disagreeing with me or my church. I think the more the light of Scripture is proclaimed, the better we all can see.

I am fully confident that everyone is where God wants them to be today. Tomorrow will be different for many. God instructed us to preach the Gospel in order for men to know that "Jesus Christ" is the only name under heaven by which they can be saved. All to whom God gives ears to hear will know the truth of their salvation by Christ risen, each according to God's gift of the indwelling Holy Spirit given at a time of His choosing.

I don't know how much idolatry God winks at. I don't know how long God will keep an acquitted man in a church that prays to the creature and believes there are "another Christ" and who thinks Mary "shares Christ's work of redemption on the cross."

Certainly not forever. Post Tenebras Lux.

Thankfully, it's His call, not mine. But His word tells me clearly not to praise, venerate, worship, glorify or kneel to any name but His.

As to your last sentence-—I agree—in the understanding that all praise, veneration, worship. glory and kneeling is directed to, in and with The Lord of Lords, Christ Jesus.

As for the rest—I regret your tone to me.

If your posts are any guide, that's false.
