    ANALYSIS OF MATTHEW 24:12-13 - WHY IT DISPROVES OSAS

    So, since we cannot trust in OSAS (seeing that it is an idea that cannot stand the test of Biblical scrutiny), let us trust in Jesus to keep us saved as we remain daily surrendered to Him by His grace.

    The Catholic Church gets put down a lot, but it was all that could help

    I'll let your own Catholic officials answer your assertion that Catholicism traces itself all the way back to Jesus and His Word: This is an ultimatum from the cardinals of the Roman court to Pope Julius III immediately after his ascension to the papal throne in 1550. It is contained in a...

    Who Is "the Restrainer" In 2 Thess. 2:6-7

    I think my last post should be sufficient for anyone who reads it with his eyes open to see that my position is of one that condemns BOTH the Papacy as Antichrist... -and- ..."apostate Protestantism" (Protestantism which started out sincerely seeking truth but eventually began rejecting it...

    The Catholic Church gets put down a lot, but it was all that could help

    Religion is simply a "method of practiced faith". Practices are what define a religion, and since the practices of Catholicism cannot traced to Jesus, but can clearly be seen rooted in paganism, it is simply a capitol mistake to claim Catholicism is rooted in the Bible and first century...

    Vatican = "divining serpent". Nothing to see here, though, move along, move along.

    Who Is "the Restrainer" In 2 Thess. 2:6-7

    I'm not sure what quote by him disrupts my theory because the fact the apostate Protestantism adopted a similar course of treatment by the Papacy of dissenters only serves to prove that Bible prophecy never fails. Protestantism was once pure, but chose to go the same route of apostasy as did the...

    Who Is "the Restrainer" In 2 Thess. 2:6-7

    So, do the crimes of Protestantism somehow excuse the Papacy or make it any less the object of the identifying marks of the Antichrist in Bible prophecy? No, the Papacy (union of church and state) is just as corrupt as the union of Jezebel and Ahab, both individuals being representations of the...

    Two Ways of thinking about OSAS

    I don't reject OSAS b/c I'm trying to obtain salvation in a way other than prescribed in Scripture - I reject it b/c it's ludicrous. OSAS allows lost people to feel themselves secure in salvation while they continue breaking God's commandments. True believers that love Jesus will eventually...

    ANALYSIS OF MATTHEW 24:12-13 - WHY IT DISPROVES OSAS

    You have confused agape with idolatry, which is the satanic counterfeit. Agape is unselfish love which does not seek for itself and comes down from Heaven alone. Idolatry is selfish, self-seeking idolatrous devotion/compassion/empathy/sacrifice/etc. and is rendered for the purpose of...

    Please provide a Scripture that says the church needs the Mass to talk to God.

    Who Is "the Restrainer" In 2 Thess. 2:6-7

    You are utterly misinformed, friend, and you have my pity. The Papacy will be judged for the horrors it enacted on so many millions of God's faithful, and anyone who refuses to give up their sad devotion to this apostate system of Sun Worship and "come out of Babylon, My people" will be consumed...

    Who Is "the Restrainer" In 2 Thess. 2:6-7

    What we don't have a right to are the lies of revisionist historians. The papacy slaughtered millions according to true history, and as one erudite scholar wrote: "That the Church of Rome has shed more innocent blood than any other institution that has ever existed among mankind, will be...

    The Catholic Church gets put down a lot, but it was all that could help

    I'm glad you agree that it is not necessary to obtain the mediation of the pope or his subordinates, and that we can approach the throne of God ourselves in order to obtain grace.

    The Catholic Church gets put down a lot, but it was all that could help

    Not implying anything. Your beloved system makes this claim in blatant full frontalism. I cannot accept that. No sinful man or otherwise can take to himself the names, titles, or attributes of God. Catholicism is an apostate system of Babylonian sun worship and the enemy of Christ's true body of...

    The Catholic Church gets put down a lot, but it was all that could help

    Friend, Your organization authored this: “All the names which are attributed to Christ In Scripture, implying His supremacy over the church, are also attributed to the Pope.”---Bellamin, "On the Authority of Councils," book 2, Chapter 17. Since "Jesus" means "Savior", how can you not see...

    Who Is "the Restrainer" In 2 Thess. 2:6-7

    Have you never heard of the slaughter of the Albegensians? Or the Waldensians? Or the Hugenots? Or St. Bartholomew's Massacre? Or the millions of others who were burned at stake, beheaded, etc? Brother, I cannot discuss any further with you the facts of history if you are unwilling to accept...

    The Catholic Church gets put down a lot, but it was all that could help

    I have no doubt that you found Jesus in Catholicism. Millions have. But, God says in Revelation 14 "Come out of her (Babylon) MY people, that you partake not of her sins and recieve not of her plagues."

    Two Ways of thinking about OSAS

    So, as a Christian, are you at liberty to have Satan as your primary God? What about sleeping with your best friend's wife? What about stealing money from your boss? It's plain and simple, friend: if you love God, you will keep the first four and if you love your neighbor, the last six. The...

    Who Is "the Restrainer" In 2 Thess. 2:6-7

    You have no idea what you're talking about. The most common offense which called forth the death penalty during the Dark Ages was the refusal to acknowledge that the wafer held out before the kneeling, doomed Protestant "heretic" was Divinity. Please read Foxe's Book of Martyrs instead of...

    The Catholic Church gets put down a lot, but it was all that could help

    Who said you had to know Greek and Hebrew in order to obtain salvation? That is not the issue here. The issue here is false teachers which make of none effect the Word of God by Catholic tradition. Here is the best statement ever written which reveals Roman Catholicism for what it is: "A...
