You guys are like a dog with bone. The Catholics have beliefs that are an accumulation of events over 2000 years. Are you jealous because you do not have that. "Hey we know everything because we are the newest Christians!" Makes no since! There is a condemning nature that can be seen in everything you guys have said. But why aim it at the largest and oldest
Christian Church in the world? It is a hatred for Catholics not just condemnation. You are not defending the truth or you would condemn some of the Protestant denominations that are satanic. Why? Why are you not condemning satanic behavior in some of the Protestant denominations?
It is not a hatred of Catholics at all. And it is not about how Catholics behave. The only acidic, acrimonious ones, are the one or two I have experienced on the forum. The ones I know personally are decent people who have never done me any harm.
No. What I am opposed to is the idolatrous worship of Mary, and the treatment of her as the Queen of Heaven, which is a direct incarnation of the pagan Queen of Heaven which God totally condemns in Jeremiah 4. This doctrine, which is an abomination to God, robs good people of a true faith and substitutes a fraudulent one, deceiving them that they are members of the true Church, when in fact it became corrupted by the sixth century, and has been the cause of the deaths of millions of faithful Christian believers who would not worship Mary or accept the usurped authority of successive popes who not only took over the Church but called the shots for the governments of the time and made denial of Mary worship, owning a Bible, holding to Sola Scriptural a capital offence punishable by burning, or just wholesale massacre of whole cities.
I don't hate Catholics. I hate any system that robs people of true faith in Christ and substitutes false doctrine and then kills people for not subscribing to it. I also hate seeing good people going to hell because they are 'backing the wrong horse'. Therefore, I feel that I would not be faithful to the God of the Bible to be forthright in my warning to flee from the wrath that will come on all those who practice idolatry, paganised worship, spiritual abuse and bullying, false doctrine, false hope, preaching a false gospel.
You say that I should say the same about Protestant denominations. If you saw my posts on Christianforums.com you will see that I am just as "out there" against false Cessationist doctrine, prosperity teaching, guaranteed healing. And I have been called a liar, ignorant, friend of Satan there as well - by Evangelical Protestants!
I have a Charismatic background, and I have expressed my opposition to wacky kundalini out of control behaviour, pagan mind control techniques involved in the "Power of Positive Thinking" name it and claim it, "new" revelation teaching, voices in the head, appearances of demons pretending to be Jesus, or angels, and false "prophecy for the nation". So, don't worry, I have been very clear that such people will also come off second best in the Judgment, along with all who are deceived by these false teachers.
So, the Catholic worship of Mary is just small fry compared to the other false teaching in the very movement that I was associated with for the first 12 years of my Christian life. I walked out of the Charismatic movement because of the gossiping, spiritual abuse, and false "shepherding movement" teaching that had invaded that church.
I will not apologise for being Sola Scriptura, and roundly opposing anything that I see is not consistent with the Bible. If God hasn't said it in the 66 books of the Bible, then God hasn't said it at all. It is the invention of man.
