I was an altar boy and the first in my all-Catholic family to get saved, in 1981. My mother tried to get me back into the Catholic church. I told her I would take that class if she would read the Book of Romans with me. We did. My father later joined us. When we came to the part that says "and by no works of the flesh shall any man be justified", Romans 3:25, Dad said "We don't believe that. "My mother felt she was not a sinner. Over years God put her thorough many trials, including a stroke when we were in Ireland in 2003. I came back from a missions trip in China in December 23, 2003. My mother was in intensive care. I shared the gospel with her, she acknowledged finally she was a sinner and prayed to receive Christ as her Lord and Saviour. 3 days later she died. My siblings did not want to hear it when I told them this story. Catholics are mostly decent, good people and I love them. But the Catholic church is not real Christianity because they do not believe you can be certain you will go to heaven when you die--substitutionary atonement--and they do not believe the bible is the ultimate source of truth. They put traditions before the Word. It is a religion about control and religious externals. Things such as popes, cardinals, confession of sins to a priest, mortal and venial sin, purgatory, transubstantiation, worship of Mary and belief she was sinless, prayer to saints, vestments and emphasis on externals and control by men are all not found in the bible and man made and parts of a mass deception. I got saved and my salvation is more valuable than a billion dollars. Call me at 215-564-4000 if I can help you. I never deserved my salvation but I love Catholics. Jesus is my Saviour.

Concerning the false Gospel of Mike Gendron Look at the Eucharist in the Gospel of John .. Go to John 6:30 It begins in the synagogue at Capernaum. The Jews asked Jesus what sign he could perform so that they might believe in him. As a challenge, they noted that “our ancestors ate manna in the desert.” Could Jesus top that? He told them the real bread from heaven comes from the Father. “Give us this bread always,” they said. Jesus replied, “I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me will never hunger, and whoever believes in me will never thirst.” At this point the Jews understood him to be speaking metaphorically. Jesus first repeated what he said, then summarized: “‘I am the living bread which came down from heaven; if any one eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread which I shall give for the life of the world is my flesh.’ The Jews then disputed among themselves, saying, ‘How can this man give us his flesh to eat?’” (John 6:51-52). His listeners were stupefied because now they understood Jesus literally-and correctly. He again repeated his words, but with even greater emphasis, and introduced the statement about drinking his blood: “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood, you have no life in you; he who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood abides in me, and I in him” (John 6:53-56). Notice that Jesus made no attempt to soften what he said, no attempt to correct “misunderstandings,” for there were none. Our Lord’s listeners understood him perfectly well. They no longer thought he was speaking metaphorically. In John 6:60 we read: “Many of his disciples, when they heard it, said, ‘This is a hard saying; who can listen to it?’” (It is here, in the rejection of the Eucharist, that Judas fell away; look at John 6:64.) “After this, many of his disciples drew back and no longer went about with him” (John 6:66). This is the only record we have of any of Christ’s followers forsaking him for purely doctrinal reasons. If they erred in taking a metaphor in a literal sense, why didn’t he call them back and straighten things out? Both the Jews, who were suspicious of him, and his disciples, who had accepted everything up to this point, would have remained with him had he said he was speaking only symbolically. But he did not correct these protesters. Twelve times he said he was the bread that came down from heaven; four times he said they would have “to eat my flesh and drink my blood.” John 6 was an extended promise of what would be instituted at the Last Supper-and it was a promise that could not be more explicit. Now when you say Christ was speaking only metaphorically by comparing verses like John 10:9 (“I am the door”) and John 15:1 (“I am the true vine”). The problem is that there is not a connection to John 6:35, “I am the bread of life.” “I am the door” and “I am the vine” make sense as metaphors because Christ is like a door-we go to heaven through him-and he is also like a vine-we get our spiritual sap through him. But Christ takes John 6:35 far beyond symbolism by saying, “For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed” (John 6:55). Jesus continues: “As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so he who eats me will live because of me” (John 6:57). The Greek word used for “eats” (trogon) is very blunt and has the sense of “chewing” or “gnawing.” This is not the language of metaphor. You appeal to John 6:63: “It is the spirit that gives life, the flesh is of no avail; the words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life.” You say this means that eating real flesh is a waste. But does this make sense? Are we to understand that Christ had just commanded his disciples to eat his flesh, then said their doing so would be pointless? Is that what “the flesh is of no avail” means? “Eat my flesh, but you’ll find it’s a waste of time”-is that what he was saying? Hardly. In John 6:63 “flesh profits nothing” refers to mankind’s inclination to think using only what their natural human reason would tell them rather than what God would tell them. Thus in John 8:15-16 Jesus tells his opponents: “You judge according to the flesh, I judge no one. Yet even if I do judge, my judgment is true, for it is not I alone that judge, but I and he who sent me.” So natural human judgment, unaided by God’s grace, is unreliable; but God’s judgment is always true. Also in John 6:63, “The words I have spoken to you are spirit” does not mean “What I have just said is symbolic.” The word “spirit” is never used that way in the Bible. The line means that what Christ has said will be understood only through faith; only by the power of the Spirit and the drawing of the Father (cf. John 6:37, 44-45, 65). Paul wrote to the Corinthians: “The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not a participation in the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not a participation in the body of Christ?” (1 Cor. 10:16). So when we receive Communion, we actually participate in the body and blood of Christ, not just eat symbols of them. Paul also said, “Therefore whoever eats the bread and drinks the cup of the Lord unworthily will have to answer for the body and blood of the Lord. . . . For any one who eats and drinks without discerning the body, eats and drinks judgment on himself” (1 Cor. 11:27, 29). “To answer for the body and blood” of someone meant to be guilty of a crime as serious as homicide. How could eating mere bread and wine “unworthily” be so serious? Paul’s comment makes sense only if the bread and wine became the real body and blood of Christ. Anti-Catholics also claim the early Church took this chapter symbolically. Ignatius of Antioch, who had been a disciple of the apostle John and who wrote a letter to the Smyrnaeans about A.D. 110, said, referring to “those who hold heterodox opinions,” that “they abstain from the Eucharist and from prayer, because they do not confess that the Eucharist is the flesh of our Savior Jesus Christ, flesh which suffered for our sins and which the Father, in his goodness, raised up again” (6:2, 7:1). Forty years later, Justin Martyr, wrote, “Not as common bread or common drink do we receive these; but since Jesus Christ our Savior was made incarnate by the word of God and had both flesh and blood for our salvation, so too, as we have been taught, the food which has been made into the Eucharist by the Eucharistic prayer set down by him, and by the change of which our blood and flesh is nourished, . . . is both the flesh and the blood of that incarnated Jesus” (First Apology 66:1-20). Origen, in a homily written about A.D. 244, attested to belief in the Real Presence. “You are accustomed to take part in the divine mysteries, so you know how, when you have received the Body of the Lord, you reverently exercise every care lest a particle of it fall and lest anything of the consecrated gift perish” (Homilies on Exodus 13:3). Cyril of Jerusalem, in a catechetical lecture presented in the mid-300s, said, “Do not, therefore, regard the bread and wine as simply that, for they are, according to the Master’s declaration, the body and blood of Christ. Even though the senses suggest to you the other, let faith make you firm” (Catechetical Discourses: Mystagogic 4:22:9). It is this level of research prayer and understanding which has led three Church of England Bishops in just the last two years to give up so much power, wealth and status to join the Catholic Church to get closer to Christ..

What's the matter you couldn't get A bible from the Book Store are you that lazy what a pathetic excuse no Kidding their not In the Pews we have a Liturgy and the Missal of the Mass and all its Bible readings are contained their .. So what was your family's excuse and yours for not reading Scripture The Church forcefully and specifically exhorts all the Christian faithful . . . to learn the surpassing knowledge of Jesus Christ, by frequent reading of the divine Scriptures. Ignorance of the Scriptures is ignorance of Christ. Catechism Of the Catholic Church Pope St. Gregory I (died 604 AD) “The Emperor of heaven, the Lord of men and of angels, has sent you His epistles for your life’s advantage-and yet you neglect to read them eagerly. Study them, I beg you, and meditate daily on the words of your Creator. Learn the heart of God in the words of God, that you may sigh more eagerly for things eternal, that your soul may be kindled with greater longings for heavenly joys.” Pope Clement XI (1700 - 1720) To forbid Christians to read Sacred Scripture, especially the Gospels, is to forbid the use of light to the sons of light, and to cause them to suffer a kind of excommunication. Pope Pius VI (April 1st 1778 AD) “the faithful should be excited to the reading of the Holy Scriptures: for these are the most abundant sources which ought to be left open to every one, to draw from them purity of morals and of doctrine” Pope Pius VII (1800 - 1823) "encourage their people to read the Holy Scriptures ; for nothing can be more useful, more consoling, and more animating, because they serve to confirm the faith, to support the hope, and to influence the charity of the true Christian." Pope Leo XIII (1893) “The solicitude of the apostolic office naturally urges and even compels us…to desire that this grand source of Catholic revelation (the Bible) should be made safely and abundantly accessible to the flock of Jesus Christ” Pope Pius X (1903 - 1914) “Nothing would please us more than to see our beloved children form the habit of reading the Gospels - not merely from time to time, but every day.” Pope Benedict XV (1914 - 1922) “Our one desire for all the Church’s children is that, being saturated with the Bible, they may arrive at the all-surpassing knowledge of Jesus Christ” Pope Pius XII (1943) “... This author of salvation, Christ, will men more fully know, more ardently love and more faithfully imitate in proportion as they are more assiduously urged to know and meditate the Sacred Letters, especially the New Testament ...” Pope John Paul II (1979) “catechesis must be impregnated and penetrated by the thought, the spirit and the outlook of the Bible and the Gospels through assiduous contact with the texts themselves” Pope Benedict XVI (2006) “I urge you to become familiar with the Bible, and to have it at hand so that it can be your compass pointing out the road to follow. By reading it, you will learn to know Christ.” Pope Francis (2015) “The Bible is not meant to be placed on a shelf, but to be in your hands, to read often - every day, both on your own and together with others” Gee, good thing you don’t like condescending emails, right? Anyway, I am not rebuking God’s Word, I am rebuking man’s word and, in particular, I am rebuking your word. Your fallible, man-made, non-authoritative, biased and bigoted word. He is one of these former Catholics who knows "everything" there is to know about the Catholic Church and its teachings and who feels a special call to save Catholics from the darkness of Romanism that he was, at long last, able to escape from. I take it that during this time as a Christian you have not sinned even 1 time correct? Naturally due to rising to such a high spiritual level of perfection, your thoughts are totally pure and the passions cease to exist due to your total sanctification and totally pure heart. I must hand it to you, it’s one thing for a Monk to leave the world and live in constant unceasing prayer on the Holy Mountain of Mt. Anthos, but to live in the world like you do and still be able to reach such a high spiritual state of perfection that the Great Saints could never achieve deserves of crown of diamonds😁😁

Like you, Mike, I was in my thirties when I came to Christ. I began to read a bible and became angry when I started to realize how the Catholic church had deceived me. Each day, after work, I couldn't wait to get home and start digging into the scriptures. I had been an altar boy in the church in the days of the Latin Mass, and was quite upset about the deception of the Roman church. During my early days of Christianity I became a Freemason after seeing several members of my church wearing the Square and Compasses. I became an officer in the Lodge until, once again, the scriptures showed me I should not be a Mason. There's quite a story that goes with that, but too much to relate, here. This is when I learned about the guidance of the Holy Spirit through the reading of scripture.

"He tells me I can't be saved outside of the Catholic church." Context. All who are saved as saved through the Catholic Church as there is ONLY one Church and Christ is its head. You and your brother in law need to read the catechism. _846 How are we to understand this affirmation, often repeated by the Church Fathers? Re-formulated positively, it means that all salvation comes from Christ the Head through the Church which is his Body:_ _Basing itself on Scripture and Tradition, the Council teaches that the Church, a pilgrim now on earth, is necessary for salvation: the one Christ is the mediator and the way of salvation; he is present to us in his body which is the Church. He himself explicitly asserted the necessity of faith and Baptism, and thereby affirmed at the same time the necessity of the Church which men enter through Baptism as through a door. Hence they could not be saved who, knowing that the Catholic Church was founded as necessary by God through Christ, would refuse either to enter it or to remain in it._ _847 This affirmation is not aimed at those who, through no fault of their own, do not know Christ and his Church:_ _Those who, through no fault of their own, do not know the Gospel of Christ or his Church, but who nevertheless seek God with a sincere heart, and, moved by grace, try in their actions to do his will as they know it through the dictates of their conscience - those too may achieve eternal salvation._ _"Although in ways known to himself God can lead those who, through no fault of their own, are ignorant of the Gospel, to that faith without which it is impossible to please him, the Church still has the obligation and also the sacred right to evangelize all men."_

@@juan_ctzz "I did my part!" If you are still with the girl, go with her through RCIA to learn more about the Church and its teachings.

" her dad would get pissed when I would always say no when he would try to convert me" Yep, dad has a bad approach. Have to recognize this and forgive (repeatedly). "she doesn’t want to be with a Christian and I don’t turn Catholic. " There is no dichotomy. Catholics are 100% Christians. When you read from the bible, you are reading from a Catholic Christian book. Catholic Christians decided what books belong in it,** translated the text, copied the text, and guarded its meaning. Those who did so never even heard of the word protestant christian. ** note, here you use the very same New Testament as decided by the 4th c Catholic Church, 27 writings out of 300+ early Christian writings. The very same Church as the very same time said the Old Testament was 46 writings. Then, 1100 years later, a Catholic priest named Luther, who had no authority, said the Church error'd before him for all that time and that the Old Testament was 39 writings. Protestantism inconsistently uses his canon - all the while believing the Church was right on the New Testament.

Hey man, if you honestly want to learn about the Catholic faith then I encourage you to watch a few videos by professor Douglas Beaumont, Dr David Anders, who spent years of research on various denominations and finally chose to join the Catholic Church. It will help your understanding and spiritual development. Peace.

Then, sometimes in procession, the bread and wine are brought to the altar; they will be offered by the priest in the name of Christ in the Eucharistic sacrifice in which they will become his body and blood. It is the very action of Christ at the Last Supper - "taking the bread and a cup." "The Church alone offers this pure oblation to the Creator, when she offers what comes forth from his creation with thanksgiving."175 The presentation of the offerings at the altar takes up the gesture of Melchizedek and commits the Creator's gifts into the hands of Christ who, in his sacrifice, brings to perfection all human attempts to offer sacrifices. 1367 The sacrifice of Christ and the sacrifice of the Eucharist are one single sacrifice: "The victim is one and the same: the same now offers through the ministry of priests, who then offered himself on the cross; only the manner of offering is different." "In this divine sacrifice which is celebrated in the Mass, the same Christ who offered himself once in a bloody manner on the altar of the cross is contained and is offered in an unbloody manner."188

The apostles also understood in Jesus’ words both the authority and the commandment to “do” perpetually in worship what Jesus had just instituted: the Eucharist. The Day of Obligation The apostles went on to teach others this sacred, God-instituted form of worship. This is evident is Paul’s words to the Church at Corinth: For I received from the Lord what I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus on the night when he was betrayed took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, “This is my body which is for you. Do this in remembrance of me.” In the same way also the cup, after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me.” For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes. (1 Cor 11:23-26) Paul was not at the Last Supper, so he undoubtedly received this from the Lord through the other apostles. And in this passage we read that he has already delivered it himself to the Church at Corinth. Scripture reveals that the Eucharist was celebrated on Sundays: “On the first day of the week, when we were gathered together to break bread . . .” (Acts 20:7). That the celebration took place on Sunday makes sense because Jesus was resurrected on that day (Mk 16:9). (Thanks to C A)

You might have found out that many ex protestant pastors have come to Catholicism ............ then you find scripture brings you to Catholicism .... The Catholic Church is closer to biblical teaching Just look at the justification for the catholic Eucharist ....Before then consider this ... Three Church of England Bishops in the last 18 months have become Catholic to get closer to Christ ... can you just imagine the power wealth and status they have given up ?? Just 5 of the 14 bible passages that support the Catholic Eucharist ..... 1 JOHN 6:54-57 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him on the last day. For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me and I in him. Just as the living Father sent me and I have life because of the Father, so also the one who feeds on me will have life because of me. 2 MATTHEW 26:26-28 While they were eating, Jesus took bread, said the blessing, broke it, and giving it to his disciples said, “Take and eat; this is my body.” Then he took a cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you, for this is my blood of the covenant, which will be shed on behalf of many for the forgiveness of sins. 3 1 CORINTHIANS 11:27-29 Therefore whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord unworthily will have to answer for the body and blood of the Lord. A person should examine himself, and so eat the bread and drink the cup. For anyone who eats and drinks without discerning the body, eats and drinks judgment on himself. 4 ACTS 2:42 They devoted themselves to the teaching of the apostles and to the communal life, to the breaking of the bread and to the prayers. 5 1 CORINTHIANS 10:16 The cup of blessing that we bless, is it not a participation in the blood of Christ? The bread that we break, is it not a participation in the body of Christ?

@@henrybayard6574 Dear Henry.....I was once deceived. There is no such thing as a "Catholic Christian" nor a "Born-again Catholic". Christians pray exclusively to Christ....hence the reason we are called CHRIST-ians. To be a saved, born-again, Spirit-filled Christian means that we gladly worship the one and only true God.....NO ONE ELSE! Catholics spend most of their time communicating with dead people. Dead people cannot hear you because they don't have the attributes of God, they cannot hear millions of prayers at once nor can they answer millions of prayers. That's why God teaches us, in His Word, to pray only to Him, no one else, because no one else is like God. The Bible says in: 1 Timothy 2:5-6 - "For there is ONE God, and there is ONE mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, who gave Himself as a ransom for all, which is the testimony given at the proper time." There it is....God tells you there is ONLY one GOD and ONLY one Mediator. Where is it written that Mary is a Mediatrix or co-Redeemer? Nowhere!! But Catholics refuse to believe the Truth of the Word of God. They prefer to pray to their Mary, their "Holy Mother" asking her to talk to Jesus and to beg Him to answer their prayers....Blasphemy! Completely unbiblical. The God of the universe does not take direction from ANY of His creations...EVER!!!...and that includes the RC Mary. God created Mary for a purpose, just like we were all created for a specific purpose. To pray/talk/revere anyone else is idol worship. God does not share His glory with anyone. Isaiah 42:8 - "I am the Lord; that is My name; My glory I give to NO OTHER, nor my praise to carved idols." There it is!!! But Catholics will pay no heed to God's teachings. Their desire to worship Mary more than God is absolutely frightening. They refuse to give her up. They will even change Scripture to worship her more than Jesus. There is proof that Jerome changed "He" to "She" in Genesis 3:15 by the Hebrew-to-English translation. Scripture warns that you are not to add nor take away from the Word of God without consequences. Genesis 3:15 - "I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring; HE [Jesus] shall bruise your head, and you shall bruise His heel.” Please, please read the Word of God and pray daily. Ask our Lord sincerely and with a humble heart to show you the Truth. I asked Him to show me the Truth almost 25 years ago and He did. It shook my life up when I discovered that the Catholic church was completely wrong!!!! Catholic beliefs do not align with the Word of God. Time is running out. Jesus is returning for His church very soon. Please dear one, repent and be saved. Seek the Lord while He may be found.

It’s not hatred. Mike was a former Catholic and wants others to know the freedom available in Christianity outside of Rome. Christ’s sacrifice truly was once for all. He doesn’t need to be offered up repeatedly for further forgiveness. (Even as an unbloody re-presentation) It is finished. Salvation is won and is a free gift, not of works. We of course do good works but that flows from having a changed heart that desires to follow our saviour and his law. Our good works contribute nothing to our salvation. The only works that contribute to our salvation are Christ’s.

The scriptures are full of warnings, making it clear that it’s not just about how we start our race, but how we finish it. We’re saved by grace from start to finish, if one of us turns away from the gospel of grace through Jesus to one of works, how can that then save him? 1 Cor 15:2 & Heb 6:4-6 should be enough of a warning, but there so many like them.

@@stever4181 To expound a little, this preacher seems to think that Catholicism is a false Christianity, because all that you need to do is declare that you believe, per his interpretation of Gospels and Paul's letters. He states that the Church made up all kinds of sacraments, such as the Eucharist. But, clearly, at the Last Supper, Jesus states, "do this in remembrance of me." This preacher mentions several verses from Paul's letters, that he will highlight in your Bible, which support the idea that you are saved if you simply profess your belief in the Gospels. However, if you read the letter of James, he has a great deal to say about faith without works being a dead thing. Paul's letters were written about 20, 25 years after the resurrection, while the four Gospels were written later than that. Overall, you have to take into account the context in which each Gospel and the Pauline and Catholic letters were written. Paul was mainly addressing the Gentile world, others were writing to Jews who had not converted to Christianity, and others to Jews who had become followers of Christ. It is not so simple as this guy makes out. Yet, it is true that the Catholic Church, like any organization, has, over time, become more hierarchical and bureaucratic.

Q: "What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him?" ---James 2:14 A: "If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward. If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire." ---1 Corinthians 3:14-15 So even the dead faith can save a person. Though it's like barely escaping from the fire. However, if one relies on his own work, he doesn't even have a dead faith. Thus nothing can save him in this case. Even a dead faith is far much better than no faith at all, for at least that person is saved.

For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me and I in him. Just as the living Father sent me and I have life because of the Father, so also the one who feeds on me will have life because of me. 2 MATTHEW 26:26-28 While they were eating, Jesus took bread, said the blessing, broke it, and giving it to his disciples said, “Take and eat; this is my body.” Then he took a cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you, for this is my blood of the covenant, which will be shed on behalf of many for the forgiveness of sins. 3 1 CORINTHIANS 11:27-29 Therefore whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord unworthily will have to answer for the body and blood of the Lord. A person should examine himself, and so eat the bread and drink the cup. For anyone who eats and drinks without discerning the body, eats and drinks judgment on himself. 4 ACTS 2:42 They devoted themselves to the teaching of the apostles and to the communal life, to the breaking of the bread and to the prayers. 5 1 CORINTHIANS 10:16 The cup of blessing that we bless, is it not a participation in the blood of Christ?

John 20:23 says nothing about setting up a confession box and telling another sinful man everything we've done wrong week after week and nothing about having to participate in this ridiculous ritual of repeating a bunch of prayers and doing acts of penance as a part of receiving God's forgiveness.

Mark 14:22-24 While they were eating, He took some bread, and after a blessing He broke it, and gave it to them, and said, “Take it; this is My body.” And when He had taken a cup and given thanks, He gave it to them, and they all drank from it. And He said to them, “This is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many. Luke 13:26 Verse Concepts Then you will begin to say, ‘We ate and drank in Your presence, and You taught in our streets’; Luke 22:19-20 And when He had taken some bread and given thanks, He broke it and gave it to them, saying, “This is My body which is given for you; do this in remembrance of Me.” And in the same way He took the cup after they had eaten, saying, “This cup which is poured out for you is the new covenant in My blood. John 6:35 Verse Concepts Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life; he who comes to Me will not hunger, and he who believes in Me will never thirst. John 6:51 Verse Concepts I am the living bread that came down out of heaven; if anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread also which I will give for the life of the world is My flesh.” John 6:53-57 So Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in yourselves. He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day. For My flesh is true food, and My blood is true drink.r John 13:1-4 Now before the Feast of the Passover, Jesus knowing that His hour had come that He would depart out of this world to the Father, having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them to the end. During supper, the devil having already put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, to betray Him, Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into His hands, and that He had come forth from God and was going back to God, Acts 2:42 Verse Concepts They were continually devoting themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Acts 2:46-47 Day by day continuing with one mind in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they were taking their meals together with gladness and sincerity of heart, praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord was adding to their number day by day those who were being saved. Acts 20:7 Verse Concepts On the first day of the week, when we were gathered together to break bread, Paul began talking to them, intending to leave the next day, and he prolonged his message until midnight. 1 Corinthians 10:16-17 Is not the cup of blessing which we bless a sharing in the blood of Christ? Is not the bread which we break a sharing in the body of Christ? Since there is one bread, we who are many are one body; for we all partake of the one bread. 1 Corinthians 10:21-22 You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons; you cannot partake of the table of the Lord and the table of demons. Or do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? We are not stronger than He, are we? 1 Corinthians 11:20-34 Therefore when you meet together, it is not to eat the Lord’s Supper, for in your eating each one takes his own supper first; and one is hungry and another is drunk.

If someone can be accursed, then does that not mean they lose salvation? If I understand this correct, salvation can only be found through one gospel, the word of God, for the only way to know Christ our savior, is through sound doctrine? Im just making sure I understand correctly. On a side note, personally I find that James 2 explains things without being confusing when it comes to becoming a new person. Most sermons are more confusing then James 2. To love Christ is to know him and follow him (his example and commandments) for he is the only way to the Father. Knowing the true, by their fruits. This is why we examine ourselves and all things with the sound word of God.

"Rubbish" You mean, accept the fallible an unauthoritative interpretation of Steve and not the Word of God, the WORDS of Jesus Christ: THIS IS MY BODY. Interesting this : No one ever called the bread and wine transforming into the Resurrected Christ "Rubbish" for over 1500 years. "Catholics ignore all except a few verses at the end" Be specific Steve. Which Catholics? Never heard of this either. That bible is a Catholic book. No verse is ignored or dismissed. "where Jesus states the words he just spoke are spirit and that the flesh counts for nothing." Right. Note first, SPIRIT does not mean Symbolic. Jesus is saying that it's only through God's revelation that one can understand the words of Jesus - This Is My Body - the mystery of the Eucharist. The flesh - man on his own - can not understand it. It's no different that one standing in front of Jesus, without revelation, would know that they are standing in front of God. Note too Steve, that the crowed LEFT Jesus because of his words. It was HARD saying. WHO could take it? and the Jews wanted to kill him (1 para, ch 7). All this because he spoke symbolically? NAH. They all reacted such as they took him literally. Eventually, the Romans would accuse the Christians of "eating their Christos."

Tell me how I am not part of his church. Your understanding of scriptures comes only from the CC set up in Rome and run by Rome who states you are not allowed to say anything apart from what they teach.

Interesting Captain, when you open your bible to the table of contents, you defer to Catholics who all held Sunday as the day of Christian rest. For your Old Testament canon, you defer to 16th c Catholics in central Europe. For you New Testament, 27 writings, no more, no less, out of 300+ early Christian writings, you defer to the late 4th c Catholic Church to have decided for you. Christians rest in Christ, the day of Resurrection, the 8th day, the day of the new creation. Nearly 1900 years later a usa women would declare that all of Christianity had it wrong before her and she was right. A new gospel she spoke ... one that the bible warns about. Yet, she used that Catholic book all the same. Her Church could not be the one spoken of in scripture as it did not exist. And one wonders in her world just how the Holy Spirit works. She made Jesus out to be undependable and a liar. He failed to keep his repeated promises. Hell prevailed.

No argument in Christianity ... in the SDA world, the apostles must have not understood as they preached the gospel all over the world. Makes Christ out to be undependable. He lied.

And such cooperation is precisely this mediation subordinated to the mediation of Christ."

he apostles also understood in Jesus’ words both the authority and the commandment to “do” perpetually in worship what Jesus had just instituted: the Eucharist. The Day of Obligation The apostles went on to teach others this sacred, God-instituted form of worship. This is evident is Paul’s words to the Church at Corinth: For I received from the Lord what I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus on the night when he was betrayed took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, “This is my body which is for you. Do this in remembrance of me.” In the same way also the cup, after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me.” For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes. (1 Cor 11:23-26) Paul was not at the Last Supper, so he undoubtedly received this from the Lord through the other apostles. And in this passage we read that he has already delivered it himself to the Church at Corinth. Scripture reveals that the Eucharist was celebrated on Sundays: “On the first day of the week, when we were gathered together to break bread . . .” (Acts 20:7). That the celebration took place on Sunday makes sense because Jesus was resurrected on that day (Mk 16:9). (Thanks to C A)

For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me and I in him. Just as the living Father sent me and I have life because of the Father, so also the one who feeds on me will have life because of me. 2 MATTHEW 26:26-28 While they were eating, Jesus took bread, said the blessing, broke it, and giving it to his disciples said, “Take and eat; this is my body.” Then he took a cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you, for this is my blood of the covenant, which will be shed on behalf of many for the forgiveness of sins. 3 1 CORINTHIANS 11:27-29 Therefore whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord unworthily will have to answer for the body and blood of the Lord. A person should examine himself, and so eat the bread and drink the cup. For anyone who eats and drinks without discerning the body, eats and drinks judgment on himself. 4 ACTS 2:42 They devoted themselves to the teaching of the apostles and to the communal life, to the breaking of the bread and to the prayers. 5 1 CORINTHIANS 10:16 The cup of blessing that we bless, is it not a participation in the blood of Christ? The bread that we break, is it not a participation in the body of Christ?

I do not doubt MG's sincerity. However, he was clearly very poorly catechized while he was Roman Catholic. While he has some parts correct, he is wrong about a great many things. But what? Well, that is hard to say since in the first 30 minutes of his presentation he repeatedly claimed and implied that the Church of Rome is wrong. Finally, 35 minutes after beginning his presentation he briefly lists several things, and he claims that these are distortions of the Gospel invented by Rome. But here is the problem: Almost all of the things he listed were not invented by Rome, but come directly from the words of Christ and the NT authors. Baptism, the Eucharist, following the commandments, etc. These all come directly from Scripture and witness of the early Church. Gendron thinks he against the Gospel of Rome. Rather, he is against the Gospel of Christ as demonstrated in the Scriptures and the early Church.

The Catholic Church is closer to biblical teaching and never contradicts the bible - than any protestant church / sect Just look at the justification for the catholic Eucharist ....Before then consider this ... Three Church of England Bishops in the last 18 months have become Catholic to get closer to Christ ... can you just imagine the power wealth and status they have given up ?? Just 5 of the 14 bible passages that support the Catholic Eucharist ..... 1 JOHN 6:54-57 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him on the last day. For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me and I in him. Just as the living Father sent me and I have life because of the Father, so also the one who feeds on me will have life because of me. 2 MATTHEW 26:26-28 While they were eating, Jesus took bread, said the blessing, broke it, and giving it to his disciples said, “Take and eat; this is my body.” Then he took a cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you, for this is my blood of the covenant, which will be shed on behalf of many for the forgiveness of sins. 3 1 CORINTHIANS 11:27-29 Therefore whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord unworthily will have to answer for the body and blood of the Lord. A person should examine himself, and so eat the bread and drink the cup. For anyone who eats and drinks without discerning the body, eats and drinks judgment on himself. 4 ACTS 2:42 They devoted themselves to the teaching of the apostles and to the communal life, to the breaking of the bread and to the prayers. 5 1 CORINTHIANS 10:16 The cup of blessing that we bless, is it not a participation in the blood of Christ? The bread that we break, is it not a participation in the body of Christ?

Being "born again" means you are baptisted. Jesus explained this very carefully to Nicodemus: Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again." “How can someone be born when they are old?” Nicodemus asked. “Surely they cannot enter a second time into their mother’s womb to be born!” Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit. Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit. That is baptism, isn't it? Water and spirit.

@biblealone9201 Жыл бұрын
Sola fide ("by faith alone") Sola scriptura ("by Scripture alone") Sola gratia ("by grace alone") Solus Christus or Solo Christo ("Christ alone") Soli Deo gloria ("glory to God alone") Let's take a look at these and see if they are still viable today. The first thing that is striking is that if they are all "alone", then why do the other 4 even exist? In other words, if we are saved by scripture alone, then why do we even talk about grace or faith? Why do we need scripture when we are saved by grace alone? And are any of these "alones" in the Bible? A quick search shows that only one of the solas, the words "faith alone" does appear in the bible, as follows: James 2:24:You see that a man is justified by works and not by faith alone. Strange that the one sola that does appear in the bible contradicts the very sola itself. Works (good works, not useless Jewish works of the law) are part of being justified. The Catholic Church teaches that justification begins at Baptism, when the Holy Spirit comes to us, even while we are infants. And "being saved" is a lifelong journey that doesn't end until we die and are allowed into heaven. A lot of Protestants talk about "when they were saved", as if it's in the past tense. Catholics would agree that whenever you began taking your faith in Christ seriously was certainly a great time, but it was only a first step, not the entire journey. What really counts is your faith at the time of death, not your faith when you first started believing 20 years ago. The next one is "Scripture Alone", which does not appear anywhere in the bible. The text most often used by protestants to back this one up is: 2 Timothy 3:16: All scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, However great this passage is, the word "alone" does not appear in it anywhere. The word profitable does not mean only. If it did, then Titus 3:8 below would mean that good deeds are all we need to be saved: "The saying is sure. I desire you to insist on these things, so that those who have believed in God may be careful to apply themselves to good deeds; these are excellent and profitable to men." Applying the word "alone" to scripture also means that anyone can properly interpret it, without the Magesterium and Sacred Tradition. In other words, the Catholic Church only claims infallibility with the official documents of the Church, spoken "ex cathedra" ("from the chair") by the Pope. This sola claims that anyone and everyone who interprets scripture on their own is infallible! And how wrong is this today, with over 30,000 Protestant denominations, with some even claiming that homosexuality is no longer sinful! The next one, "Grace Alone", isn't found in the Bible either. Catholics would agree that we are indeed saved by grace, which is a free gift from God. Where we differ is the method of how we receive that grace. The Catholic Church regularly dispenses sanctifying grace through the sacraments. The protestants believe that God just gives them grace whenever He wills it, sacraments or not. The Catholic version of this one would be that we are saved by grace, which increases our faith, and leads us to do good works as a very necessary fruit of our faith. The fourth one, "Christ Alone", also sounds great. Who could argue with the fact that we are saved by Christ alone? The problem with this is that the 3rd person of the Blessed Trinity, the Holy Spirit, also plays a HUGE role in our salvation. According to the bible, we are temples to the Holy Spirit. Peter and the other apostles all followed Jesus and ate with him, talked with him, and tried to follow him. It wasn't until Pentecost when the Holy Spirit came upon them that they received power (Acts 1:8). Catholics receive the Holy Spirit at Confirmation, and can receive Him again and again through the laying on of hands by charismatics (to reinvigorate your faith). And what about the role that the Communion of Saints plays in our salvation? They lead us to Christ, as do our parents, our friends, and our fellow Catholics. The whole problem with this particular sola is that it isolates us into a "Me and Jesus" scenario, where I don't really need a Church or a family telling me what to do. And that is so wrong. Jesus set up His Church for a reason, to be His Kingdom on earth. And this sola allows for no glory to God our Father, who we pray to each and every time we say the "Our Father" prayer. The last one is Soli Deo Gloria, or "Glory to God Alone". This one also sounds like a winner. However, there is one problem with it. Jesus Himself said in John 17:22 that He gave His glory to his apostles (at the Last Supper, when He gave them the Eucharist). And while none of the apostles' lives or works will save us in and of themselves, they are indeed one with Christ (1 Corinthians 6:17) and they are partakers in the divine nature (2 Peter 1:4). It really is okay to venerate the saints, which is not the same glory and honor we need to give to Christ. A lot of protestants confuse veneration of the saints with glory to God. Mention the Communion of Saints to a Protestant who says the Apostles' Creed every Sunday, and you will usually get a blank stare back. In other words, most Protestants who recite the Apostles' Creed say they believe in the Communion of Saints, but they do not know what it means. What it means is that the saints in heaven are our brothers and sisters in Christ who have gone before us, and who help us in our journey in this life. After all, Jesus says that they are ALIVE (Luke 20:38). And since they are partakers in the divine nature, according to 2 Peter 1:4, that means that they can hear us and help us. Catholics could come up with a lot of these solas. Since the bible says that we must eat and drink the body and blood of Jesus to have life within us (John 6), then we could say that we are saved by "The Eucharist alone". And since Paul talks about the value of personal suffering for the Church in Colossians 1:24, we could say that we are saved by "Suffering alone". And since the Bible says that the Church is the pillar and bulwark of Truth (1 Timothy 3:15), then we could formulate the doctrine of being saved by "The Church alone".And since we have to be forgiven for our sins before we can enter heaven, we could come up with the doctrine of "Confession alone". And how many more of these could we invent if we had the time? Lots. But to no purpose whatsoever. The Bible was meant to be taken as a whole, and to not be broken down into parts for convenience' sake. To sum up, all of this shorthand abbreviation for our faith in the 5 solas leads us away from the rest of what is necessary for salvation, like the Church, the Sacraments, prayer, helping the poor, performing good works, etc. After all, why do all of that if it's just me and my bible, me and Jesus, me and whatever....🤢🤢

When you are saved you are saved but then you work out your salvation in that you grow in your knowledge and faith. If you are saved even one minute and you die you are saved for eternity, so being saved is a BIG thing. You are saved from hell. I’d say that is huge. No wonder we recall it. It’s good to remember how wretched we were when sin had a hold on us and salvation is a miracle in itself. Jesus was speaking figuratively about a spiritual matter.

@@Dustandfuzz In the next verse, He separated spiritual things from earthly things.😃😃 Vs 63*, Jesus said, "It is the spirit that quickens; the flesh profits nothing. The words I speak to you, they are spirit, and they are life." Did He say He was speaking figuratively or in parables? This is the second verse detractors use to try to "prove" that Jesus spoke figuratively for the whole chapter. Did Jesus say "My" flesh? No, He said "the" flesh. What Jesus had said was, that we cannot accept this mystery if we accept it in too human a way, by having an earthly view of things. Those who can only think of cannibalism, are they not having an earthly view? See John 3:6, "That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit." Verse 63 means that we should not have a carnal human understanding of His words, but a spiritual understanding. Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood, you have no life in you; he who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. 🤢🤢 Looks Like you wont be raised Up 🤢🤢 For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood abides in me, and I in him. As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so he who eats me will live because of me.". Things seemed to be going pretty well. That is until Jesus said “For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. He that eateth my flesh and drinketh my blood,dwelleth in me, and I in him.” This was too much for many of his disciples and “From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.” Jesus turns to the 12 and asks, “Will ye also go away? Vs 61, Jesus did not back down, for He said, "Does this offend you?" it offends protestants. They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.

See also: - Matthew 28:19, Acts 2:38, Acts 16:15 Mark 16:16 - Jesus says to the crowd, "He who believes and is baptized will be saved." But in reference to the same people, Jesus immediately follows with "He who does not believe will be condemned." This demonstrates that one can be baptized and still not be a believer.

The Lord answered my prayers through Scripture. Whenever I found Scripture that did not align with the Catholic church, I prayed and the Holy Spirit convicted me that the RCC was NOT His. RCs refuse to consult the one and only true God on such an important matter. They would prefer to continue believing whatever sinful men fed them, no questions asked, no seeking the God of the universe in prayer for answers. That is a big mistake...huge! Your eternal soul depends on the Truth and every Catholic I have ever met, refuses to go to the Lord in prayer on such a serious matter. They might be afraid of finding out the Truth or perhaps are just simply afraid of praying to their Lord and Savior because they're so used to praying to idols. Whatever the reason, it's heartbreaking because eternity in the Lake of Fire is forever. Once you're there, there is no escaping it. No amount of crying and pleading to the Lord will ever get you out of there. Your fate is sealed. And you will be reminded, for all eternity, that all you had to do was seek the Lord in prayer for His answer, but you didn't, and you'll be screaming why didn't I? Why!!! You still have time.

@@TheBinaryWolf Sure, well I could just start at the beginning and work through it.... 1:20 Some bishops in the church did abuse the use of indulgences to raise funds of the church so this is not strictly a lie. However the church ever since this time has strongly condemned this practise because it has *ALWAYS* been done in contradiction to the teaching of the church. Gendron appears to be insinuating that the church taught at the time that this was a legitimate thing to do, but that is false.

By the authority and protection of Jesus Christ, exorcism can only be conducted, performed by designated Catholic priests appointed by their bishops for those who are believed to be the victims of demonic possession, it cannot be exercised by Protestant pastors, nor by Baptist pastors, Anglican pastors, Seventh Day Adventist pastors, Calvinist pastors et cetera and certainly it cannot be performed by Mike Gendron. God is infallible - Jesus did not make mistake when He first established His Church, the Catholic Church. He never asked Martin Luther, King Henry VIII, Ellen White, John Calvin or Mike Gendron or other founders of Christian denominations to reform His Church. Catholic Church is the pillar and the base foundation of the true Church.

They abstain from the Eucharist and from prayer because they do not confess that the Eucharist is the flesh of our Savior Jesus Christ, flesh which suffered for our sins and which that Father, in his goodness, raised up again. They who deny the gift of God are perishing in their disputes” (Letter to the Smyrnaeans 6:2-7:1 [A.D. 110]).*
