I have to say that it is astonishing what those who are not filled with the Holy Spirit will believe.

Are you three Spirit-filled? There is absolutely no doubt when you are and the Spirit will give you discernment and a clear understanding of Scripture.

My prayer for all of you is that you will seek the Lord and ask to be born again of His Spirit. Without a spiritual rebirth you will never see the Kingdom of God. That you will become indwelt by the Spirit and that you will be led to truth and understanding even if it leads you out of the Catholic church.

So which of you is willing to lay everything on the line for Christ even if it means giving up the comfort of your organized man-made religion? Do any of you really want Jesus Christ so badly that you are prepared to walk away from Catholicism? Is He more important to you than it? Pray that He reveals the truth to you even if it means leaving something you have held so dear all your life. Which one of you is brave enough to lose everything in order to know the Savior?

As my husband said years ago to a daily-Mass Catholic who was leaving the Church to attend his wife's denomination, "I'd rather have knives thrown at me during the Catholic Mass, than to sit in the pews of Luther." (Does that answer your question?)
