And in vain they worship Me, Teaching as doctrines the commandments of men. Mark 7:7
How can Catholics pray to Mary and a plethora of other ‘ saints’ and ignore that there is only one mediator between God and man, which is Christ?
For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus, 1 Timothy 2:5 - this verse is why I am an ex-catholic...
Jesus said no one jot or tittle would pass from the law, and yet Catholics still practice idolatry, ignoring the Second Commandment of the Decalogue...
For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled. Matthew 5:18
Furthermore, the Sabbath is a perpetual covenant instituted by God and will still be kept in heaven.. eternally....
“For as the new heavens and the new earth
Which I will make shall remain before Me,” says the Lord,
“So shall your descendants and your name remain.
23 And it shall come to pass
That from one New Moon to another,
And from one Sabbath to another,
All flesh shall come to worship before Me,” says the Lord.
Isaiah 66:22-23
Exodus 31:13
“Speak also to the children of Israel, saying: ‘Surely My Sabbaths you shall keep, for it is a sign between Me and you throughout your generations, that you may know that I am the LORD who sanctifies you.
Ezekiel 20:12
Moreover I also gave them My Sabbaths, to be a sign between them and Me, that they might know that I am the LORD who sanctifies them.
Ezekiel 20:20
hallow My Sabbaths, and they will be a sign between Me and you, that you may know that I am the LORD your God.’
As a former Roman Catholic, it is quite evident that the Catholic religion is a populist religion based on traditions of men and set forth by the bishops of Rome, that ignores the pure teaching of the Bible and replaces the study of God’s word with liturgies and catechism, which offers erring fundamentals concepts regarding the “ faith once delivered to the saints”...
It is purely based on Romish fundamental beliefs, contrary to the Word of God...
Many Roman Catholic core beliefs, have no basis on the Bible whatsoever...
Only recently are Masses given in languages other than Latin... Also, studying the Bible is now allowed, because the present information society is no longer as gullable as in the Dark Ages... During the Catholic Inquisition, you could be burned at the stake for possessing a Bible by the very bishops of Rome.
Roman Catholic apologetics, such as this are seriously flawed and easily disproven by any self- respecting Bible student of any Protestant faith...
Isaiah 40:8
The grass withers, the flower fades, But the word of our God stands forever.”
John 8:32
You shall know the Truth and the Truth, shall set you free” ... Like it did me...
How many times do we Catholics need to tell you that we do not pray “to” the Blessed Virgin Mary or the saints?
We only ask them to ask Jesus for a prayer — or whatever we might be praying about.
We only ask — we do not worship.
Got that?
Then please don’t repeat the falsehood again!
Did you slip into Catholic bashing?
