Of the many called, so few will let HIM do it ... because their secret pride in their fidelity to the man-made sacraments by which they believe they 'will obtain' salvation. The scene on the Day of Pentecost shows salvation is immediate ... and it is not like a yoyo which comes and goes, despite what catholiciism teaches to Catholics.
The anti-Catholic heretic may not realize that many are invited to follow God’s will and receive His Sacraments but few are chosen because of their pride and their choice to follow their own judgement instead of the teachings of Jesus and His Catholic Church.
The Sacraments are all Bible based and initiated by Jesus and His Church.
I realize that many may be confused and think they know precisely when one receives salvation (and that you have your own personal interpretation of the teachings of Jesus), but the Bible says the following:
Scripture teaches that ones final salvation depends on the state of the soul at death. As Jesus himself tells us, “He who endures to the end will be saved” (Matt. 24:13; cf. 25:3146). One who dies in the state of friendship with God (the state of grace) will go to heaven. The one who dies in a state of enmity and rebellion against God (the state of mortal sin) will go to hell.
Like the apostle Paul I am working out my salvation in fear and trembling (Phil. 2:12), with hopeful confidence in the promises of Christ (Rom. 5:2, 2 Tim. 2:1113).”
I do hope one finds salvation, but anti-Catholic views on the principle doctrines may not help.
