Explaining the Heresy of Catholicism (John MacArthur)
Grace To You ^ | Pastor John MacArthur

Posted on 05/26/2014 4:13:56 PM PDT by Dr. Thorne

Praying to Mary, celebrating the Mass, venerating the Pope—you won’t find those doctrines in the Bible. And yet more than one billion Roman Catholics throughout the world follow such practices in line with the official teaching of the Roman Catholic Church.

With that many Catholics around the globe, it’s likely you know some of them as relatives, friends, neighbors, or co-workers. Find out what they don’t know—the origin and error of Catholic doctrine—so you can help the Catholics you know out of the darkness and into the light.

Keep mumbling. Mary can’t help you.

you don’t think it’s incumbent on us to tell others the truth? you think we should pretend everyone knows and walks in the truth? I base my life on biblical truth and unfortunately, there are many religions that do not. And when you point it out, THEY become hostile.

Does loving your neighbor mean turning a blind eye?

Clearly not.

Please listen to what Pastor MacArthur has to say. We don't “just worship differently”. Catholicism blunts the message of salvation in the Gospel and redirects its adherents to worshipping humans instead of God. That means the church is actively trying to stop people from being saved! Is that serious enough for you to care?

It is not shameful to tell the truth. Shame on you for suggesting that it is.

"Catholics don't know the Truth because they have allowed their church to tell them lies which only serve to oppress them."

Wow. Just wow.

After reading #47, I must refer you to #46.

Seriously. If you really want to show you’re not just out here flamethrowing, stop now.

Go ask a priest to figure this out for you. Why think for yourself? Maybe Pope Frank, the South American Socialist, can clue you in.

As a Protestant, I’ve noticed more Catholic bashing by those who would do well in a music video for Ray Stevens’ “Mississippi Squirrel Revival.”

And as Protestant, I've noticed the exact reverse.

I believe the Catholics have the most to fear, as their Traditions are just that, the inventions of men, and when that is stripped away, all they have left is the Gospel, which is more or less what Protestants have been preaching.

I can do what I wish. If you don’t like it, don’t read it.
