HOW DOES A CATHOLIC THINK THEY GET TO HEAVEN?

Seven Reasons I am not a Roman Catholic:
The first reason why the Roman Catholic church is wrong is because of the doctrine of Christ's being offered over and over in the Mass.
The second reason is because of the excessive place that Mary.
Thirdly, because they have elevated tradition over the Scripture. Mass, with their doctrine of Mary.
Fourthly, because of the reverence or worship of images. The scriptures tell us that God should not be reduced to a physical form. He will not be worshipped by anything we can make with our hands.
Fifthly, Because of the false teachings about the sacraments. The Roman church teaches that grace is infused through these sacraments and that grace can be earned instead of imputed by God.
Sixthly, the teaching of the Roman Catholic church about purgatory is a falsehood.
Finally, many Roman Catholic practices are tied to ancient paganism’s rites. Some people in the Catholic Church have met Jesus Christ, and I praise God for that, but they had to do it circumventing their own theology if they even knew their own theology.
Christ's message for them and to us today is: Stay separate from false doctrine and evil.

I was a cradle Catholic. After my husband died two and a half years ago, I had a real moment. Basically, born again. I left the Catholic church, my late husband was Catholic as well and before he passed we both had a moment. Some of his family thinks he's still in Purgatory. I couldn't handle that.

[@bradk7310]

You was born again when you was baptized, as that is what John 3:3-5 means. Also, this guy is misrepresenting what purgatory actually is. Since you was a catholic, you should have known exactly what the church teaches about what it is and isn’t.

[@dianelawrence1087]

I was baptized in this church early 40s. An infallible pope lived veniel and mortal sins. I grew up in fear of going to hell. So I had to go to a priest for forgiveness. This is a horrible way to live as a child. My mom was greatly deceived. She believed everything taught. I was always suspicious of the teachings. Getting Bible Studies dies wonders

Ephesians <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="128">2:8</a>-9 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.

[@bibleman8010]

The New Testament writers are emphatic that salvation is by grace alone (Rom. 3:24, 28; 4:5; 11:6; Gal. 2:16-21; Eph. 2:8-10; Titus 3:5-8). . For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them" (Ephesians 2:8-10) ... Now separate works of the law Mosaic Law Paul was speaking about circumcision's from Good Works charity which Paul calls charity love which is greater than faith "And if I should have prophecy and should know all mysteries, and all knowledge, and if I should have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing." 1 Corinthians 13:2 (St Paul). What is charity other than helping the needy? Charity is clearly considered among good works. "And now there remain faith, hope, and charity, these three: but the greatest of these is charity." (1 Corinthians 13:13). This clearly puts charity BEFORE faith, so to say "faith alone" is all that is required of us is clearly contrary to Scripture. Rm 2:6-7 Here’s what Paul says: For he will render to every man according to his works: to those who by patience in well-doing seek for glory and honor and immortality, he will give eternal life. Galations 5:6 in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love. Wherefore, brethren, labor the more, that by good works you may make sure your calling and election." 2 Peter 1:10 Then there's verse Titus 3:14, where Paul says, “Let our people learn to devote themselves to good works, so as to help cases of urgent need.” You see a need, and in love you try to meet it-that's a good work. Good works are the overflow of love for Christ that meets the needs of others. This is exactly what Paul says in Titus 3:8: “The saying is trustworthy, and I want you to insist on these things, so that those who have believed in God may be careful to devote themselves to good works.” By your stubbornness and impenitent heart, you are storing up wrath for yourself for the day of wrath and revelation of the just judgment of God, who will repay everyone according to his works: eternal life to those who seek glory, honor, and immortality through perseverance in good works, but wrath and fury to those who selfishly disobey the truth and obey wickedness." (Rom 2: 5-8)..

Thankfully, there are many rebels in the Catholic Church, who dont buy into all the heresies. Some are priests who actually use their position to preach the Gospel of Salvation according to the scripture......repentance of sins and the sin of unbelief, putting their faith/belief in Christ alone. I wish that were true across the board, in all churches......... I witnessed to a married Catholic couple for years...........then moved away.......years later, they came to see me, to let me know that a group of Nuns explained the Gospel to them, and they "believed" and accepted Christs work on the Cross as the only means of Salvation. They tossed out all the statues, paraphernalia of many kinds, and the beads also. praise the lord......

A Martin Luther Moment for ya Even Martin Luther saw the inescapable principle of fragmentation and disunity that lies at the heart of sola scriptura. In a letter to Urlich Zwingli, he complained bitterly about the doctrinal anarchy that was even then rampant among Protestants: "If the world lasts, it will be necessary, on account of the differing interpretations of Scripture which now exist, that to preserve the unity of faith, we should receive the [Catholic] councils and decrees and fly to them for refuge." Martin Luther, concurred that the Bible is indeed a Catholic Book. He had this to say: "We are compelled to concede to the Papists that they have the Word of GOD, that we received it from them, and that without them, we should have no knowledge of it at all." Martin Luther, commentary on St. John👏👏

[@ricksonora6656]

@@bibleman8010 Luther’s information about the Bible is obsolete, and his journey from Catholicism to the faith preserved in the scriptures was incomplete, being weighed down by baggage from his Roman Catholic training. The canon of scriptures was established centuries before there was a hegemonic Catholic corporation, more centuries before there was a Roman Catholic corporation, and over a millennium before the Roman corporation decided the previous “infallible” councils were wrong and added the apocryphal books to its particular canon. Hegemony is the reason Catholic apostasies became ubiquitous. The Holy Spirit revealed through Apostle Paul, in 1 Corinthians, that alternative churches (or denominations) were necessary so that apostates (such as Catholics - “I am of Cephas (Peter)”) could be separated out from among Christ’s sheep. As for (Roman) Catholics being the source of the scriptures, thanks to archaeological and historical research, we no longer depend on Rome’s version edited by the monk Erasmus. But, thanks for the outdated quotes.

​@@ricksonora6656 So, before the early fourth century, was everybody wasting their time? C'mon, Billy Graham, were people Christians before ca. 300 AD? Before there was a New Testament? You're well read, but sophomoric. You seem to have an animus towards Catholicism. Next thing, you'll be saying Catholics aren't Christians. You're really very silly. You haven't really bothered to think things through. The Early Church practiced sacraments, read from whatever sources they trusted, split into laity and clergy, established traditions and customs. Luther erred. The Church is more than a book, even the Bible. It is works, evangelizing, bringing the sacraments into a commnicant's life, spreading the Faith, retreating from the world, embracing mysticism. You think your rationality is the only view. It is most assuredly not. Indeed, I for one, and I'm one of legions, find your views cold and sterile. As a professional editor, your prose is overwrought, turbid, and tedious, frankly.

If our salvation was contingent upon our works and it was possible for us to achieve sinless perfection by what we do or don't do after believing in Christ, then what would be the purpose of Jesus Christ's crucifixion. The sole reason Jesus was crucified was because we can not save ourselves at all by any works. We will never achieve sinless perfection. Sanctification is a lifelong work of the Holy Spirit. Which leads us to repentance and convicts us to confess our sins before the Lord. Not mortal men. The mosaic law never saved anyone. Which is why we needed a redeemer. If purgatory was a stepping stone into heaven and deceased sinners were able to be set free by the works of the living, then Jesus's death on the cross was in vain because it implies the Lord's sacrifice was not enough to fully save and redeem a sinner from hell. Jesus's death is sufficient enough to save all who put their faith and trust in Him. No one has any form of authority to redeem a sinner by any work. No man under the sun has the power to do what only God can do through Christ Jesus. We accept the fact that we play no part in our redemption other than faithfully trusting the Lord to be for us what the gospel has said He is. Our Lord and Savior. Where in Christ alone is redemption and the forgiveness of sins. There is no other way. Purgatory is a false catholic doctrine made up by mortal men who exalted themselves up to be more than what they are. They are sinners who need a redeemer just like everyone else. No priest or pope is our mediator between us and God. There is only One, and His name is Jesus Christ.

I dont understand where does purgatory etc comes from tbh...

[@jeffc5474]

It is a made up doctrine by the RCC.

[@beadoll8025]

The RCC came up with this doctrine to keep people tied to their false religious system and apostate church. A mortal sin would be like intentionally missing mass, so if a person was originally in a state of grace but then intentionally missed mass as an example, that person would go to purgatory but indulgences can be given and the family can then pray the person out of purgatory and possibly elevate them to heaven status. Catholicism is not Christianity... it's not even close. It is really Satan's Greatest Deception. He doesn't care how he gets you, as long as he gets you.

[@bibleman8010]

Since you claim there is no "purgatory " Then please explain where Jesus' Spirit went for the 3 days his body was dead? Sacred Scripture says ",, that he went and preached to the spirits who lay in prison. " ( 1 Peter 3:19) Where was this prison? was it in Heaven? If so why would there be a prison in Paradise? Was the prison in the Hell of the Damned? If so why would the damned need to hear the Gospel? . as you say there is no "purgatory" then Jesus did not have to die on the cross. If Moses and Abraham and the rest of the OT Faithful were already in the presence of the Lord then Jesus did not have to die. His death on the cross opened the narrow gate and the OT faithful passed through that narrow gate from the wilderness into the Promised land. The OT Faithful that died waiting for the Messiah weren't in slavery in Egypt- the antetype of hell of the damned for they had been rescued but they weren't in the Promised land of heaven either. Jesus' death opened the narrow gate and fulfilled the Covenant. Please study the Hebrew thoughts of Sheol and the grave, and note that Sheol is NOT Gehenna. Gehenna is for the accursed and the Damned not Abraham or Moses. The waiting in the spiritual wilderness is the best explanation of "purgatory" I can think of right now. Thanks for listening and remember Revelation 21 :17 & 1 Cor 3:15 especially verses 10-15. ---- the word hell means Hades or Sheol, the collective abode of the dead, divided into Paradise or Abraham's Bosom--the state of God-fearing souls--and Gehenna, the state of ungodly souls. Thus the descent into hell suggests that the Son of God carried the sins of the world to hell; or the Son of God carried Good News of deliverance to the godly dead such as Lazarus the beggar and the repentant thief.

[@michaelmappin4425]

​@bibleman8010 There were formerly 2 compartments in hell with a great gulf fixed between them. Old Testament believers could not be in heaven because Jesus Christ had not given the sacrifice that takes away sin. God's holiness could not be in the presence of unatoned sin any more than darkness can exist in the presence of light. Jesus Christ died and went to hell for 3 days and 3 nights. He then led captivity captive, and hell enlarged her borders. No purgatory.

​@@michaelmappin4425 Hell" is english, "sheol" is Hebrew, "hades" is Greek. Purgatory is Latin for the same The Abode of the Just - Abraham's Bosom (Lk 16:22-26) This is where they awaited their promised deliverance. Gehenna (Greek): This is the lake of fire. Eternal damnation (Mt:18:9) The good guys went to the Abode of the Just (Abraham's Bosom), the bad guys when to gehenna. There was a great chasm between the two places and there was no way to get to one side from the other. (Mt:18:9). Christ descended into hell on Good Friday so he could rescue the righteous from the part of hell where the righteous were.(1 Pt 3:18-19) Jesus is the only way to Heaven so it was important that he descended to the dead. (Jn 14:6) Jesus didn't go to hell as a dead guy. He went there as the Saviour. Jesus blew down the doors of the Abode of the Just and grabbed out every faithful servant of God from the beginning of history. He rescued them and freed them from this prison on Holy Saturday.

[@ricksonora6656]

It might be both. It might be neither. Depends on motives and ultimate results. Hypotheticals like yours that pose false dichotomies are useful only if you learn from the answers. So, pay attention. A drowning man isn’t going to listen to scripture. You have to preserve his biological life so he can think about the scriptures. Read James. On the other hand, if he’s going to die later and go to hell, you have saved his earthly life by putting off the inevitable; but you’ve done nothing to save his soul’s everlasting life from perdition. You need to do one and then the other. Works don’t count against sins because they’re already owed to God. You can’t pay July’s rent with June’s check. So, until you’ve received the gift of redemption from Christ, the best your good works can do is minimize your punishment in hell. If you’ve received the gift *as a gift* by trusting God instead of Self, your debt has been paid, so works actually count for something. Works for salvation minimize punishment but cannot save one’s soul from hell. Works done because of salvation bring rewards.

My fellow brethren, this is a distortion. The Apostolic Church is fully aware that we are only saved by grace through faith, not by works, which is why babies who are incapable of works are baptized. The Church has a mechanism of believers to maintain their service (works) for the Lord all throughout our lives. Once again, salvation is a free gift from God which cannot be earned, but remember that Saint James inspiringly said that faith without works is dead (James <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="137">2:17</a>), and according to Saint Paul we must work out our salvation with fear and trembling (Philippians <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="132">2:12</a>). So, faith and works are two sides of the same coin-you cannot separate them. Further, Saint Paul commands us to keep the ordinances (traditions) given to him by God for the Church (1 Corinthians <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="661">11:1</a>-2). Yes, traditions, meaning the Orthodox traditions from the time of the Apostles. This means that the patriarchy of Bishops, Priests, and Deacons must persist with its God-ordained liturgical duties to simulate the Throne Room of God which is purely patriarchal and liturgical. You see, beloved, the Protestant reformation did just that-it reformed the ancient Church rather than restoring Orthodoxy.

Not sure where your warped view of catholicism came from, probably due to the fact that humans corrupted peter's church. But you are wrong if you think that's how catholics find jesus in heaven.

PETERS CHURCH????? That says it all……

[@michaelscott1778]

Then explain. Back yourself up with scripture

Actually it is a solid view of the RCC.

[@ricksonora6656]

If you don’t find Jesus now, you won’t find Him in heaven, either, because you won’t be there. Catholics don’t represent Catholicism. There isn’t even consistency from Jesuit to Dominican to Benedictine. But if you go to the defining documents of the -ism (catechism, papal bulls, church councils, Sacramentum Mundi), you’ll find that the video is spot on.

@rick wraps it up rather succinctly. RELIGION is not the same as Christ’s Gospel, but in fact is its antithesis. The RCC is among the world’s most corrupt and POLITICAL organizations, and is about 90% Pagan. Study the actual history - it’s an abomination.
