No doubt about it, but it is the organization which is pagan based from it's origin, and continues to defy God and His Holy word in the Bible..as Jesus said "by their fruits they will be known" Matthew 15 to 20...
Unfortunately many denominations are daughters of Rome to varying degrees and do not follow the true word of God...Revelation 17
Many websites to research about the misconduct of popes and "church" leaders over the years....after you do research do they really sound christian to you? Website "The antichrist is hidden in plain sight" is an excellent start to understand this issue.

Hmmm . . . just out of curiosity, can you tell me how the Catholic Church is "pagan from its origin"?

I order to do this, you'll have to provide some actual evidence like:
1. What doctrines are of "pagan origin"?
2. When was the Church established - since you said it is pagan from its origin?

This should be a good starting point for a fruitful discussion . . .

I've posted this link maybe 10 times. Either hte is afraid of it, he can't read it, he doesn't know how to open a link, or doesn't want reality to spoil his vicious hateful fantasies.
Is Catholicism Pagan? Maybe it's the facts and logic that he finds so disturbing.

This should be a good starting point for a fruitful discussion . . .yes, with those who are socially functional.

ya, good luck finding your way to anything other than your own personal god with facts and logic, no offense.

If your faith in God is predicated upon something that you know for a fact, you are in big trouble, and i can demonstrate this from Scripture.

So far, the only thing I've seen you demonstrate from Scripture - is your ignorance of it.
The same goes for your limited grasp of history and linguistics . . .

well, that doesn't mean that many or even most Catholics are not good hearted people, though.

ok so maybe there are some exceptions? lol

Of course, there are good people in every religious organization including the Roman religious system..Revelation 17 and 2nd Thess 2 3&4..It is the organization itself which has to be analyzed...Does it follow the Holy Bible, word of God? If not then run away from it..People however become blinded by satan (Lucifer angel of light 2nd Cor 11...the colours, the music, and the buildings and think this cannot be satanic...think again...and ask yourself the question: DOES IT FOLLOW GOD'S HOLY WORDS IN THE BIBLE?

Who are you to talk? You don't even have a church or a fellowship. And you only follow 2 chapters, the ones twisted by liars and bigots that feed your hate addiction.

It seems the pagan based Roman religious system has captured the market on lies, bigots and hate, and worse still counterfeit christianity..sad, but they have deceived the whole world just as Jesus said they would in Matthew 24...oops I forgot you do not follow the Bible or the words of God/Jesus..guess this is what you classify as hate literature right?

I think you have captured the market in bigotry on this forum.

By your own admission you believe your own prejudices rather than facts presented to you if those facts are presented by a Catholic. Personally I doubt you would accept facts that contradict your prejudices if they were presented by anyone.

What gives the popes authority to forgive sin? They seem to believe in their own ability to forgive sin..John Paul "don't go to God to forgive sin, come to me" as one example

More lies from you heretoeternity

Read "Don't go to God for forgiveness of sins, come to me." - LIE EXPOSED!

Time for a Bible lesson . . .

The practice of telling our sins directly to a priest is based directly in Scripture. Three times in the Gospels (Matt. 16:19, 18:18 and John 20:23), we read where Jesus gave the Apostles the power to forgive sins or to hold them bound. This is not a something that Jesus took lightly. In John 20:21-23, Jesus (who is God) breathes on the Apostles as he is giving them this power:
Jesus said to them again, "Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I send you."
And when he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them, "Receive the holy Spirit. Whose sins you forgive are forgiven them, and whose sins you retain are retained."

The fact that Jesus breathed on the Apostles when entrusted them with this ministry is highly significant because he doesn’t do this anywhere else in the New Testament. In fact, there are only two times in ALL of Scripture where God breathes on man:
The first is when he breathed life into Adam.
The second is here in John’s Gospel when he is giving them the power to forgive or retain sins.

Paul makes NO small case for this ministry of reconciliation clearly in 2 Cor. 5:18-20:
“And all this is from God, who has reconciled us to himself through Christ and given us the ministry of reconciliation, namely, God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting their trespasses against them and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation. So we are ambassadors for Christ, as if God were appealing through us. We implore you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God.”
In 2 Cor. 2:10, he states, “Whomever you forgive anything, so do I. For indeed what I have forgiven, if I have forgiven anything, has been for you in the presence of Christ.”

In the Greek, the word “presence” in this phrase is Prosopone, which means Person. In the PERSON of Christ is a more correct translation.
Paul was indicating that they were forgiving sins in the PERSON of Christ, which is translated into Latin as In Persona Christi.

I eagerly await your well-thought-out response . . .

How about replying to my history lessons I gave you on your Roman religious system? How about replying to what the Bible in Revelation 17, 18, 13 and 2nd Thess 2 thinks about your pagan based antichrist religious system? Seems you like to ignore this while trying to promote your Bible ignoring Roman religious system...Matthew 24

Wrong - I never had that discussion with you. You must be confusing me with somebody else.

YOU asked a question:
"What gives the popes authority to forgive sin?"

I gave you a pretty comprehensive answer in post #32 - and you have failed to address it.
Now - if you disagree with it - tell me WHY and give me Scriptural proof to refute it.

If you can't refute it - that's no big surprise coming from the likes of you . . .

heretoeternity · Jan 10, 2017

Bottom line is the popes/priests do NOT have the authority to forgive sin, only God does..through our intercessor Jesus Christ...do not need some fallible human being such as the pope (even though he thinks he is infallible).....true Christians have direct access to God..A..cts 17, Hebrews 10, Matthew 27 and John 14.6...
Read 2nd Thess 2 3&4 again, which identifies the false prophet, and Revelation 13, 17

And THIS is a well-thought-out response??
Denial??

You need to explain away the verses of Scripture that emphatically show that YOU are wrong:

If you cannot debunk this - you have NO case.

I have here-to-insanity on ignore, but I see he can't get off the whore-duh-babble-on rebelation 17 bandwagon, despite many efforts to expose his funnymentalist lies and hate propaganda.

Dave Hunt's book "A Woman Rides the Beast" is so bad, some Christian book stores won't buy it.

We are cautioned more than once not to be pulling tares, and to let the tares grow with the wheat. Not that anyone much listens, i mean i still prolly spend half of my day trying to pull tares lol. If someone has imagined some enemy it is likely better to not be wising up the marks, if one could anyway, by revealing that this belief of theirs is a manifestation of their faith, because then a smart wolf will just adjust their language, and be harder to discern. Of course any corporate church must also have the whore as a component, because all of our individual churches are corrupted, and the corporate church can only reflect the individuals in it. We are, each one of us, "two men in a bed," and any adversary perceived outside of ourselves is really only a reflection of our inner struggle, right? One is taken, and the other is left.

heretoeternity should tell his doctor about Rev. 17 and the Catholic Church, he has medications that can help him. I don't mean to be facetious or condescending, I say that out of concern for his mental health.
