The popes changed the Sabbath from the 7th day to the 1st day of the week. They stopped celebrating the Leviticus Feasts days for pagan days like Christmas on Dec 25 and Easter( Ishtar or Astarte) not on First Fruits. The RCC could be saved, but what are the odds? They have made Mary into Jezebel and worship idols. Eating things sacrificed to idols is referring to your Eucharist. The first pope is easily provable to be in the 4th century. James, the brother of Jesus, took the church when Jesus ascended. There was a Jewish church founded by the Apostles 300 years before the RCC was even thought of. Look back through your history of 12yo popes, bastard boys becoming popes, the buying of offices, and on and on. The Bible is infallible, not the RCC. It is the Babylonian pagan idol worship combined with a similitude of Christian tradition. That is called adultery in Bible terms.
This was written in love, not to make you mad. If we can never have this conversation, the RCC will die in it's sin. They have heard lies and obfuscation for so long, they cannot even read the words on the page. I've been there. I was raised baptist and no one ever spoke about the Holy Spirit. I was almost 60 when I received the Baptism in the Holy Spirit. I could not even read the words on the page until the scales fell off. John 1 tells us the Word is God. The Ruach became Flesh and then became Logos. Jesus came to save, but His Word will judge us. Don't listen to me or anyone else with your relationship with God. Read the verses and pray God will show you the truth. The Woman rides the Beast would be a good start. If you are wrong, wouldn't you want to know? If you are right, what would it hurt? There are no popes, nuns, or cardinals in the Scriptures. it's made up to make you think you owe allegiance to men over Jesus. As a Christian, you are a priest and King. A vote in Italy doesn't affect your station with God. You are a saint when you accept Jesus as Savior. It has nothing to do with how good you are or what church you attend, but what your relationship is with Jesus. If you are the child of the King, you are automatically a prince. A prince in Bible terms is an angel, or messenger of God. Just as I broke off of the Baptist denomination, you can leave the RCC and you are still the child of God. They cannot excommunicate you or hurt your salvation in anyway. Francis is just a man, a fallible man, a socialist man. He would deny Jesus to get more food stamps for Venezuela.
If you do a study on Nimrod and Babylon and see the pagan foundation of much of what we believe today, you can see how paganism has worked it's way deep into what Christians believe today. Look up Madonna and child to see the beginnings of Mary worship thousands of years before Mary. Look up Tammuz and Semiramis and see what they represent. Look up Semiramis coming back as an egg to hatch as the mother of god. It has to wake any thinking person up. A Christian today would look closer to a believing Jew than a Catholic or a Baptist. The RCC is almost totally man made and confused verse reading.
That's where I quit reading and lose all respect for the author.
G’Nite, dear.
You said it better than I could. also every one should take
very serious what Jesus said to the religious leaders of his
day.
You are of your father the devil, have religious leaders
become men of God? or are they still the wealthiest men in
the neighborhood?
There are a lot of preacheers who are poor but the ones I
know do not call them selves religious but
like the early Christians gave up every thing to follow
Christ.
“The RCC is almost totally man made and confused verse reading.”
So says the person who makes up their own truth and religion by interpreting sacred scripture as they see fit, ignores the early writings of the Church fathers with there eye on the oral tradition(talked about in the Bible depite so many denials to the contrary) which was handed down to them with each passing generation from the very apostles themselves who taught orally prior to them having writen anything down which came later and prior to the sacred texts being placed together by the very same Church(sacred texts you try to use against the same Church)you call the “whore of babylon” in the late 300’s. It’s rather ironic you do the same thing that you accuse the Church, ie the mystical body of Christ, meaning the Church is Christ here on earth. How dare you defame our Blessed Lord, Jesus Christ like that with your malice born out of wilful ignorance. You manifest the same liberal mindset in theology as is seen in the politcal world. Turn away from that haughty pride of yours, there is nor room for it in heaven
