At least they were opposed??? By killing them? Nowhere is the directive given to do that. Put the axe down. The damage that is done with that method is beyond comprehension. Vengeance is the Lord's. To try to take it for him, makes one both a murderer, and a thief. One cannot covert dead bodies. But if one's aim is to let all here know about the raw hatred, and remind us all of the implicit threat of violence to those who dare resist the papists, then I must say you are doing a fine job.

I am grateful for the compliment. Heretics, no matter how well intentioned will be Judged to hell. Scripture is clear.

The sneering, snarling hatreds have been re-invigorated in the last few months. One need not a particular gifting in the discernment of spirits, to recognize what spirits are behind the carnality.

Very good. I believe that Asmodeus, one of the princes of hell, was the principal demon behind the Reformation. Since nothing of the netherworld is worth anything over time but only for the moment, it is unraveling as the 'churches' of the Reformation show. I will remind you too, of the Popes versus the various televangelists, their various demeanours.

There is only one true God.

Peter is the apprentice of Jesus.

The Pope prays to God.

The children of the Reformation pray on peoples' souls.

Good post although we RC’s have to be careful. Take a look at the Fr. Corapi controversy. Have said that, at least Fr. Corapi had to submit to the authority of the Church. To whom does Osteen or Swaggart submit?

In fairness the Protestants that I know outside of this forum (and probably many here) reject the Prosperity Gospel with strong condemnation.

What was all of that but just so much more justification For the desire to be preying on [so-called]heretics necks?

The Albigensian and Waldensians were simple Christians. There was no justification for killing them. It was a big fat worldly mistake.I pay no compliment to those whom celebrate (or would even repeat?) those type of mistakes.

The Lord's kingdom is not of this world. Missing that, is to miss a crucial truth.

Vengeance is the Lord's. It does not belong to men, though I must say there is much competition nowadays amongst those whom would take it upon themselves to "do God a favor" by killing others, in his name.

There is no shortage of those whom run to do so. They all have one thing in common. They congratulate themselves for doing it! That particular sickness, is most assuredly not of God.
