The Muslim religion came into existence in 635 A.D. just like the Catholic religion came into existence in 300 A.D. Their beliefs aren’t aligned with the Bible & Gospel. Jesus said that the only way to heaven is thru Him, John 14:6. Both religions believe & teaches that you got to do good works by following the 7 Sacraments & believe in Mohammed to obtain Salvation! The Bible says in Ephesians 2:8-9 that are Saved & obtain God Salvation by trusting & putting our faith in Jesus❣️

The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Truth, He will not add to or take away from the Person and Work of Messiah Jesus. He will not take or add to the work of salvation. Any religious system that adds or takes away from the finish work of Messiah Jesus. Is blasphemy against the Person and Work of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Truth. Selah!!

Lutheranism preaches salvation through baptism, eating the Sacrament of the Altar (which they also believe is the actual body and blood of Christ) and Absolution (which a Lutheran confesses their sins to their Pastor & which Lutherans believe has the power to forgive sins). Martin Luther retained and taught these false Roman Catholic teachings. Just read the Small Catechism of Martin Luther and see 👀 for yourself ☺️

I’m a lay person and catholic I I love how my Protestant friends are trying to save me, my sin is called being a good catholic, as if God Almighty is some kind of cruel creature who will send me to eternal damnation because I pray feverishly to Jesus in the sacrament of the Eucharist and being humble enough to think that I am not worthy to pray to Jesus Christ but sometimes I feel that I should ask his mother to intervene for me in my prayers to her son who humiliates himself for me and does his Father’s WILL and dies in the most horrible way humanly possible for ME a sinner and now he’s so sadistic that he wants to punish me for trying to hard and being born in country that evangelised more of the world than any other country, the same country that our Protestant brothers burned their Catholic neighbours out of their homes for marching for civil rights , The Catholic Church was infested by masons probably around 80 years or so and Rome is practically Protestant so we who are “ trying to practice take Rome with a dose of salt and pray for them, when the church ( original) is betrayed again which is probably envisioned we who are left “ The Remnant” are going to bring the world to compassionate son of God , And for what it’s worth among the friends who are in the full of this apparently wrong religion are healer’s or regular communication on matters of faith with the apparently confused Jesus , When asked by the apostles about men who were performing miracles in Jesus Christ name was they good men Jesus replied that if they are not against us and doing good work then they are with us, do you think that he will actually abandon those who are with him?abandon those who fast pray and do good works who respect him in the Eucharist? Who love and respect his Mother, who love and respect those who spent their lives in devotion to Christ who we call saints ?? Seriously Folks the god You proclaim is a sad sad bitter god Be careful that you are not like the pharsises experienced in reading the book but pathetic in its daily practice and its simplicity, Jesus Christ didn’t come for the reader of books but rather for sinners, which is why all of my catholic friends are happy to admit that they are!

The Gospel According to Matthew was written to Jews. And "the exception" to remarry can only happen if the unfaithfulness happens during the Jewish Betrothing period which lasted about one year. Hence why "Queen Mary" was still a virgin after her first day of officially being married. Once the marriage ceremony is complete, one cannot remarry after divorce. Jews already understand this and so do true Christians. The book of Mark was written to Polytheist Gentile or Christians who were never Jewish. And the message is: NO REMARRYING AFTER DIVORCE NO EXCEPTIONS. Why? Because Christians do not have a one year betrothing period. Who teaches adultery is ok? That be the psycho Protestants. Where in God's Creation does a written language supersede Oral Authority? NOWHERE. SCOTUS supersedes the Constitution and any Tom, Dick and Harry with a copy of it. A licensed surgeon supersedes the book "Essentials for General Surgery" and any Tom, Dick and Harry with a copy of it. There is only One Order, and that is God's, Oral Authority ALWAYS supersedes written language. Hence St. Paul discusses Abe in Romans 4, Jesus and the Apostles could not possibly contradict Scripture because Oral Authority ALWAYS has and ALWAYS will supersede any written language or Scripture. Jesus states in Matthew: The Church (not some church or all churches) is The FInal Authority with disputes among believers and sin. Furthermore, he says, The Church decides what is permitted and prohibited under The Law of Christ in Heaven and on Earth.

HI Pastor Mike thank you for your frank and sincere testimony in a works-based and meritious righteousness earned salvation in your former life as a Roman Catholic. Here is my own testimony. I was raised up in a Chinese Mehodist Church in Klang, Selangor, Malaysia and like all good Protestants Christians and also Ex-Roman Catholics like you was encouraged and even ''bribe'' by my devout grandmother to go to MYF (Mehodist Youth Fellowship, MIF (Methodist Intermediate Fellowship) on Week-ends (Friday or Saturday) and to faithfully attend Chucrch Services on Sunday, the Lord's Day.. However ignorant of the True Gospel of Jesus Christ and the Great Orthodox Doctrines of the Bible as a youth, I was soon confused and lead astray by the agressive missionary activities of the Modern Cults like the Jehovah's Witnesses of the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society, the Church of Christ (Campbelism) which recently started a new branch, a household church in my town and the attractive Propaganda of the Worldwide Church of God founded by the late Herbert W.Armstrong, their glossy so called ''Plain Truth'', :""GoodNew" magazines and became indoctrinated and confused with the 'Legalistic Armstrogism'' of the Ambassador's College Correspondence Course. Deceived and Sceptical of all Traditional Christian Denominations, I soon left the Evangelical Church that I was physically born into. However, the Unmerited Mercy and Undeserved Grace of God led me out of my Spiritual darkeness into the Wonderful Light and Truth of the Goodnews of Jesus Christ in November 1983 which was the 500th anniversary of the Birth of Martin Luther when I chanced to come across and read the October issue of the National Geographic Magazine which covers ''The World of Luther' The reading of the article and the Holy Sciptures especially Paul's letter to the Christians in Rome and the province of Galatia. God's Holy Spirit soon opened my eyes to the TRUTH OF THE GOSPEL and I was soon back attending Bible Studies, Cell Groups and faithfully attending Church Services, worshipping and fellowshipping with other Gospel believing Brothers and Sisters in Christ in the Methodist Church into which I was born into (but not yet as a ''born again'' Christian) in my younger days. May God use you, Brother Mike and your bold miniistry and testimony (inspite of rejections, oppositions and even persecutions that may come) from your Ex-Roman Catholic relatives and former friends that many more Roman Catholics and even members of other Self Proclaimed " ONE TRUE CHURCH'' deceived Cult members can be witnessed to and COME OUT OF DARKNESS INTO THE WONDERFUL LIGHT AND TRUTH of THE ONE AND ONLY TRUE ''GOSPEL'' or GOODNEWS OF JESUS CHRIST! God Bless!

That is why Satan was able to bring our Lord Jesus Christ tell Mountaintop and offered him the world if only cries would Bow Down and Worship Him. That is why Christ had to come and be a good Jewish boy so that he could fulfill the requirements of Satan to get us sinners out from under the curse death. Christ came to destroy the one who has the power of death that is the devil. Christ did not come to destroy his own father and father God would not use tools of the devil

1) I appreciate your commitment to lovingly sharing the word of God, that's something that a lot of Christians don't aim form Catholic or otherwise :) 2) I believe that your two criticisms here are from misunderstandings of Catholic teachings. Yes, justification is absolutely by faith and salvation comes from God alone. Christ taught this and Catholics believe it. But it is possible to lose that salvation by continuing to sin without trying to repent. If someone says they believe in Christ but none of their works are good, then they are saying no to God's grace, and rejection of God equals rejection of Heaven. Faith without works is dead. This isn't a Catholic invention, it comes straight from scripture (James 2:14-26). See also Matt 7:21-26, Matt 19: 16-22, Romans 2:2-10, Gal 5:6, James 2:20-24. 3) while the doctrine of papacy may have been clarified in the 1800s, Papacy was founded by Christ when He declared Peter the rock on which He would build His Church, which the gates of Hell would not prevail against (Matthew 16:17-19).

A branch - one who is attached to Christ, the vine - and thus ... SAVED, can be cutoff, bundled and thrown to the fire. How is this? By sinning mortally AND _failing_ to repent. God out of love, gives us the freedom to say no to his gift.

" how can one lose it?" Dying in mortal sin. _"Mortal sin is sin whose object is grave matter and which is also committed with full knowledge and deliberate consent." (CCC __#1857__)_ Scripture speaks to the two types of sin, moral and not (venial) ... in 1 Jn 5: _16 If any one sees his brother committing what is not a mortal sin, he will ask, and God will give him life for those whose sin is not mortal. There is sin which is mortal; I do not say that one is to pray for that. 17 All wrongdoing is sin, but there is sin which is not mortal._ The Catechism (#1864) speaks further about one being unrepentant: _"Therefore I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven." There are no limits to the mercy of God, but anyone who deliberately refuses to accept his mercy by repenting, rejects the forgiveness of his sins and the salvation offered by the Holy Spirit.

All sorts of things are thrown up mostly one liner claims against the Catholic Church which have been systematically refuted and shown to be false. It is easy to claim one thing without any evidence - a sound bite that Gendron and the hate preachers use as a rallying voice But it is more complex to explain with evidence why such claims are wrong one claim was made to me below "There is not one bit of evidence that Peter was ever in Rome " ............ My first degree being history I am well versed in weighing up historical evidence and the sort of and the amount of evidence from different historical periods . I agree with all but a few historians that there is conclusive evidence that Peter was in Rome for a period of time and on the basis of evidence that Peter was executed in Rome ... the Bible nowhere explicitly says Peter was in Rome; but, on the other hand, it doesn’t say he wasn’t. In fact, very little is said about where he, or any of the apostles other than Paul, went in the years after the Ascension. For the most part, we have to rely on books other than the New Testament for information about what happened to the apostles in later years. What the Bible Says In the greeting at the end of the first epistle: “The Church here in Babylon, united with you by God’s election, sends you her greeting, and so does my son, Mark” (1 Pet. 5:13, Knox). Babylon is a code word for Rome. It is used that way multiple times in works .... In The Chronicle, composed about A.D. 303, noted that “It is said that Peter’s first epistle, in which he makes mention of Mark, was composed at Rome itself; and that he himself indicates this, referring to the city figuratively as Babylon.” ‘Babylon’ means ‘Rome,’” . The authorities knew that Peter was a leader of the Church, and the Church, under Roman law, was considered organized atheism. Peter would do himself, not to mention those with him, no service by advertising his presence in the capital. Why encourage a manhunt? Early Christian Testimony William A. Jurgens, in his three-volume The Faith of the Early Fathers, a masterly compendium that cites at length everything from the Didache to John Damascene, includes thirty references to this question, divided, in the index, about evenly between the statements that “Peter came to Rome and died there” and that “Peter established his See at Rome and made the bishop of Rome his successor in the primacy.” A few examples must suffice, but they and other early references demonstrate that there can be no question that the universal-and very early-position was that Peter certainly did end up in the capital of the empire. A Very Early Reference Tertullian, in The Demurrer Against the Heretics (A.D. 200), noted of Rome, “How happy is that church . . . where Peter endured a passion like that of the Lord, where Paul was crowned in a death like John’s [referring to John the Baptist, both he and Paul being beheaded].” You admit Paul died in Rome, so the implication from Tertullian is that Peter also must have been there. In the same book, Tertullian wrote that “this is the way in which the apostolic churches transmit their lists: like the church of the Smyrnaeans, which records that Polycarp was placed there by John; like the church of the Romans, where Clement was ordained by Peter.” This Clement, known as Clement of Rome, later would be the fourth pope. Clement wrote his Letter to the Corinthians before the year 70, just a few years after Peter and Paul were killed; in it he made reference to Peter ending his life where Paul ended his. In his Letter to the Romans (A.D. 110), Ignatius of Antioch remarked that he could not command the Roman Christians the way Peter and Paul once did, such a comment making sense only if Peter had been a leader, if not the leader, of the church in Rome. Irenaeus, in Against Heresies (A.D. 190), said that Matthew wrote his Gospel “while Peter and Paul were evangelizing in Rome and laying the foundation of the Church.” A few lines later he notes that Linus was named as Peter’s successor, that is, the second pope, and that next in line were Anacletus (also known as Cletus), and then Clement of Rome. Clement of Alexandria wrote at the turn of the third century. A fragment of his work Sketches is preserved in Eusebius of Caesarea’s Ecclesiastical History, the first history of the Church. Clement wrote, “When Peter preached the word publicly at Rome, and declared the gospel by the Spirit, many who were present requested that Mark, who had been for a long time his follower and who remembered his sayings, should write down what had been proclaimed.” Lactantius, in a treatise called The Death of the Persecutors, written around 318, noted that “When Nero was already reigning [Nero reigned from 54-68], Peter came to Rome, where, in virtue of the performance of certain miracles which he worked by that power of God which had been given to him, he converted many to righteousness and established a firm and steadfast temple to God.” These citations could be multiplied. (Refer to Jurgens’ books or to the Catholic Answers tract Peter’s Roman Residency.) No ancient writer claimed Peter ended his life anywhere other than in Rome. What Archaeology Proved There is much archaeological evidence that Peter was at Rome Pope Paul VI announced officially something that had been discussed in archaeological literature for years: that the actual tomb of the first pope had been identified conclusively. The story of how all this was determined is discussed in John Evangelist Walsh’s book, The Bones of St. Peter. It is enough to say here that the historical and scientific evidence is such that no one willing to look at the facts objectively can doubt that Peter was in Rome. (thanks to C A)

The early Christians many of them Italian were also thrown to the wild beast and died as martyrs for Christ in the Coloseum in Rome. However Roman Catholicism became the Official Religion of the Roman Empire only when Emperor Constantine converted to Roman Christianity (whether real or false is a matter of dispute amongst Church Historians.) and stop the Imperial Persecutions against Christians throughout his empire at the Edict of Milan and joined the Roman State with the Roman Church which by the fourth century had starting to become Roman Catholic (claiming to be "Universal") for the entire world. Satan the Devil unable to stamp out Christianity from without by Persecutions now sought to infiltrate the Church from within by deceiving the early Church "Fathers" with Pagan Roman Religious Practices, Traditions, Customs and Festivals and syncretised the Worship of the Sun God (Sol Invictus) with that of the Worship of the Son of God...that's how Roman Catholicism arose in the fourth century C.E (as a False Works-Based Religion like Islam did in the Seventh Century C E ) and put out the light and truth of the Gospel until Luther rediscovered it in his "Tower Experience" which ignited the Protestant Reformation in 1517 AD about 505 years ago.

Absolutely! And to top it all - they prevented the congregation from reading the bible for themselves! Thereby keeping them in the dark - the diabolical darkness that still abounds today. But the saddest thing is that even though the word of God is now freely available, the goats still continue to believe the lies ( called traditions ) of the papacy - and they even defend it as if it's the truth - as witnessed on this page!!! That is the real sadness.

"However Roman Catholicism became the Official Religion of the Roman Empire only when Emperor Constantine converted to Roman Christianity " No Chew. Who taught you this?? Constantine legalized Christianity, stopping to a degree the persecution in 313 (the Edict of Rome). It wouldn't be official religion of Rome until the Edict of Thessalonica in 380 under Emperor Theodosius I. " Satan the Devil unable to stamp out Christianity from without by Persecutions now sought to infiltrate the Church from within " Then for sure, you should put your bible down and question how the very same Church - in the late 4th century - got the Canon of the New Testament right, 27 writings, no more, no less, out of 300+ early Christian writings! A list of writings, NOT found in scripture! Your statement too makes Jesus out to be undependable and a liar. He failed completely to keep his promises below. Christ is the head of his Church. (Col 1: 18) Christ''s Church is the pillar of truth (1 Tim 3: 15) Christ's Church is the bulwark of truth. (1 Tim 3: 15) Christ's Church is where the manifold wisdom of God is made known. (Eph 3: 10) Christ PROMISED to lead it to ALL Truth. [by sending the Holy Spirit] (Jn 16: 13) Christ PROMISED that he would NEVER leave it. (Mt 28: 20) Christ PROMISED that the gates of hell would not prevail (it will not teach doctrinal error) ; (Mt 16: 18)

@TruthHasSpoken Truth in the Roman Catholic Church and Roman Catholicism? Who can believe that after studying Church History and the Protestant Reformation. No Rome has persecuted True Christians from the very beginning with the Apostles Peter and Paul and the Vatican and Papal Rome has continued the same old "Traditions" of Oppressing and Martyring True Believers in Christ and defenders of the Christian Gospel (Evangel). She (Rome) is but one of the daughter cities of her Mother, the Purple and Scarlet Prostitite whose "Mystery" is now Unveiled in these last days as "Babylon the Great and Strong City to be rebuilt in the Land of Shinar or Babylonia or Modern Iraq, like Idolatrous Tyre, Sidon, Athens, Memphis, Rameses, Persepolis, Pergamum, Mecca, Medina, Samaria, etc. etc.. and even Jerusalem the "Holy" City that had become a Whore and Apostate like her Bloodthirsty mother who killed the Prophets and the Apostles and daughter bitches who also did the same atrocities against the True Christian Saints!

@@TruthHasSpoken ''TruthHasSpoken? What ''Truth''? Gospel Truth based on the 27 Books of the New Testament or the Dogma decreed at the Council of Trent? The Roman Catholic Church and Roman Catholics like you today still wants to retain her Absolute Heresy or rather ""Hogwas"" against the Goodnews as revealed as the Evangelical GOSPEL TRUTH preached and defended by Paul in the Book of Romans and the letter to the ''bewitched'' Galatians. ,, THE TRUTH OF THE GOSPEL HAS SPOKEN AND DEFENDED ITSELF!

@@BombshellBibleProphecies Trent responded in part to the heretical teaching of a Catholic priest named Luther who said after 1,100 years, without any authority, that 7 books of the bible were not scripture because he disagreed with one of the books. Why follow the teaching of heretic? He didn't even agree with the other two heretics, Father Zwingli and a Catholic lawyer named Calvin. All the result of the man-made doctrine and heretical teaching of Sola Scriptura. It's fruit was then and even more today, is chaos and confusion. And it makes Jesus Christ out to be undependable and a liar.

Basically Mr Gendron is saying look Catholics have to be baptised (John 3 + 4 other scripture) receive the sacraments (In the Gospel Jesus said "For those whose sins you forgive they are forgiven for those whose sins you retain they are retained .... "" which is Catholic Act of Reconciliation (Confession) Eucharist John 6 3 times Jesus says "You must eat my body and drink my blood " and later "Many of his followers said this is intolerable language and they followed him no more " Does that last sentence sound familiar ?? To me it sounds like Mr Gendron with his criticism of the Bible and Catholicism !! btw 3 Church of England Bishops have converted to Catholicism in the last 18 months.
