Catholicism is no body of Christ.

It is not HIS church.

Jesus didn’t tolerate sin in the seven churches in His letters to them in the book of Revelation. He took them out because they refused to repent.

No way he’s going to protect the drug abusing, child molesting, homosexual infiltrated religious organization that calls itself a “church”.

With its toleration of sin and complicity in the child abuse that they knew about and refused to address, and the homosexuality which has been a problem in the clergy for well over a thousand years, Catholicism long ago forfeited any right to identify as a church. Nor can it expect Jesus to protect it in its sin. That is absolutely contrary to the way Jesus addresses sin in anyone’s life.

Catholicism is big on confession and doing penance in the lives of its adherents, even to threatening them with hellfire, but gives itself a pass to the sin within itself. It expects and demands of people what is not happening at the clergy level. Nice racket if you can get it.

Catholicism may be being protected, but it’s not God protecting it, not until and unless they show the same repentance and turning from sin they demand of their parishioners.

What about your pal John MacArthur now being accused of protecting a child abusing pastor? Sent a wife back home to an abuser too, didn’t he?You post his stuff every day. What about the skeletons falling out of the closet of his church now? What about the abuse in the Southern Baptist convention? Child abuse and homosexuality are occurring at the same percentage in every Protestant denomination as the Catholic Church and every HONEST person here knows it and admits it.
