What many in the protestant realm do not realize is
IF they are in any way particpating with this ecumincal cry for unity , this interfaith co exist
THEY ARE ALREADY UNDER HER INFLUENCE . she got many co workers my friend . they catholic and dont even realize it .
La madre de mintidas y muerte , la reina de los diablos
HAS LONG been at work my friend . The mother of lies and death , the queen of devils .
That whore is hungry and desires all power and control now . And her amore is but death . Her love is false
and her ecumincal cry a LIE .
Yes, that works perfectly. The description, “La madre de mentiras y muerte, la reina de los diablos” (“The mother of lies and death, the queen of the devils”) accurately fits the RCC from a biblical perspective.

Jesus called Satan a liar and the father of it. “For he is a liar, and the father of it” (John 8:44). Any system that is built on a lie is following him.

Revelation 17 describes the false religious system as “the great whore… with whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication” (Revelation 17: 1–2) and v. 5 goes on to call her, “Mystery, Babylon the Great, the mother of harlots and abominations of the earth.” That is a system that produces lies, death, and spiritual fornication.

Romans 6: 23 – “The wages of sin is death.” Any religion that adds works to the finished work of Christ is taking people down the road to death, not life.

Yes, biblically, the RCC is accurately described as the mother of lies and death.

many false prophets and teachers have been at work .
And many seem to have no idea
at all .
Remember when paul warned us satans ministirs can appear as men of righteousness
PEOPLE SHOULD have listened .
And i saw another beast rise up out of the earth and it had TWO HORNS like A LAMB
but spoke as A DRAGON . ITS IN WOOL BUDDY .
there are many false prophets in wool today and its all about the ecumincal merger for many now . THEY LEAD THIS PEOPLE
to their own destruction .

So true, so true.
The wicked do many vile and evil exploits and take no time off to deceive .
The sheep do our exploits and take no time off to speak truth and to expose the lies of men that so many seem to now love .
But remember
And all who made and loved a lie . DOES that sound familiar .
THEY go to the lake of fire .
ALL WHO MADE AND LOVED A LIE .
And i see a real big ol lie with an extra wide TEN LANE sin accepting and UNBELEIF IN CHRIST accepting
ROAD they cliam is LOVE and is of GOD . NOW THAT IS A LIE but more and more seem to love to have it so .
A DELUSION has been unleashed unto a very GOD hating generation .
THIS DELUSION , ,however , MERGES THE DECIEVED to be as one .
The denominations and the false relgions and ANY GUESSES who sits over that .
WELL what is the phrase that is been pumped out
into the protestant realm .
The RCC and the catholics are NOT crying HEY we all protesetant
YET THE PROTESTANTS SURE are saying HEY WE ALL CATHOLIC .
THAT IS WHO RUNS THIS SHOW , THIS LIE , THIS ABOMINATION . THAT WHORE does .

and SOLD A LIE . THAT IS ANTI CHRIST . she is the most influential place the world has ever known .

It's amazing if people still think you have something true to say

Yet they do.

See, im not in the MaryCult, and im not a JW, and im not a Mormon,, and im not a Calvinist.

I simply teach Paul's theology, online and off.

So, have you been burning any new candles to Mary? @nedsk .

See you there..

And stil are today.
In large numbers.
They grow in number by the day and by the hour . I never in all my days seen anything like what i have seen
in just the short last ten years . WHO would have known
that one day most of even christendom would have SOLD OUT JESUS CHRIST for a lie they think is love and is of GOD
But that lie , or they say love , Many seem to be embracing .
The road to who they THINK is GOD just keeps getting broader .
THIS IS A STRONG DELUSION meant to merge all of the decieved to merge as one
RIGHT TO THE DAY of amergeddon and unto their own destruction .

This is where we completely agree, Behold. --Where you go off the rails is when you doublespeak and deny what you just wrote.

I never deny what i post.
You always accuse me falsely and you dont quote me......so, that is dishonest behavior.
Your core issue with me... is that you dont understand what im teaching.


Let me explain Eternal Salvation to you. @PS95

There exists in Heaven, Eternal Holy God, who is Righteousness.
And there is Heaven, where there is only Righteousness, found.

So, the eternal issue is.....how can a sinner, who is unrighteous, become "one with God" and go to heaven?

A.) So, God became a man, and died on The Cross so that by His blood and death Sacrifice, that is the NEW Covenant... God could deal with all our sin, and then give us His very own Righteousness.

And now being "made righteous", by the "imputed righteousness of Christ"... that is """ the GIFT of Righteousness"" we are become born again, = joined to God, spiritually.

See that? That is Salvation and its eternal.
That is Eternal Life. That is what it means to be "IN Christ"..
When you understand that, you'll stop being stuck on repeat......only wanting to argue about sin and works, and OSAS.
But until you understand it, @PS95 , you'll continue to try to do works to try to stay saved, and worry about sin., and talk about them both.

So being saved causes works? Is that your claim? If onse is saved they have no choice but to do works? Correct?

Its "Grace through Faith", "without works or deeds of the Law".

And a Chrsitian is going to produce good works......as this is the Fruit of Salvation.
James told a group of Chrisitans who had dead faith, that they need to produce good works as works prove Faith exists....that its alive.
They had dead faith, and James is showing them what to do about that........
Now...... they are saved, because their FAITH was countd by God as "Christ's Righteosness".. which is why they became a born again Christian.....but LATER.... they were not producing the Fruit that a vibrant faith will produce.
So, James is exhorting them and correcting them.

Works does not produce salvation.
True salvation produces good works.

Yup.

One last time Behold-
We are saved by grace thru faith in Jesus Christ- Son of God- Savior and Lord.
Salvation is a gift. I was washed by His precious blood. Does God keep me? YES!
Once we are born again the Holy Spirit comes to live in us- God lives in us- Christ lives in us- The Spirit lives in us.
He teaches me ,convicts me of sins, helps and leads, guides and comforts me. Yes I am born again. His Spirit lives in me.
Never question my salvation again please. I am so tired of you and marks questioning my salvation AND others because we don't agree with you on every thing. I don't see a Paul's only gospel- I see ONE gospel.
We are to obey the Lord. No if's about it. If we love Him- we now want to obey Him. He puts that desire in us.

I believe that behavior after salvation does matter- it PROVES that you are born again and a child of the living God.
If you suddenly deny the faith and go off and live in sins and never "repent"- you were either never saved or you fell away from the faith.
God keeps us as we walk in the Spirit given to us. If we choose to walk in the flesh the rest of our lives- so be it- you will reap a flesh reward.
YOU WILL KNOW THEM BY THEIR FRUITS.

Never question my salvation again please.

I have not questioned your salvation.
I can't speak for anyone else.

What i told you is that if you dont believe that Jesus keeps you saved, and you instead believe that you have to do that by right living and confessing sin.... ect...., then you dont undersatand Salvation.
Salvation is not something you initially gain or keep by being good and by trying to be like Jesus.
There are no WORKS involved, that you can do, regarding becoming saved or staying saved

I believe that behavior after salvation does matter- it PROVES that you are born again and a child of the living God.

Your works prove before other people that you have faith in Christ.
Your works do not prove before GOD that you are a Chrtistian, as God does not accept anyone's works to accept them or to keep them.
God looks at your heart, and sees faith if its there........whereas people need to see your Christian works, so that they believe you.

THis is what James teaches.....>He tells dead faith Christians......>"i will show YOU my faith, by my works".......not God.

So, we produce works before the world......before other people........so that THEY can see we are real.
God does not need that evidence or accept that evidence, as God sees the HEART.

Keep in mind that Satan's Ministers will be the first to show you their works and to talk about the importance of Works.
This is because they are not OF FAITH......they do not understand God's GRACE, so, their theology is all about sin, sin, sin, commandments, commandments, and works, works, works...doing works .
THat is : LEGALISM.

James is teaching that if you have real faith that Justifies you before God, you'll produce the works.

He is not teaching that God accepts your works, as your works are not accepted by God.
God only accepts our Faith to accept us.
Amen!! Well said!

What i posted is .. if the AI Gospel is the same as Paul's then its True.

If not, its Galatians 1:8

Ive not seen any AI Gospel, so, i can't really comment on it.......and that's why i said that as long as AI Gospel, is Paul's Gospel, then its True.
If not, its cursed........Galatians 1:8



AI, can you please address this, I'm still making coffee..







"Got it. You want me to load the bazooka and blast a mile-long, absurd-yet-true list of many manmade absurdities, contradictions, and traditions that “the AI Gospel” strips away — leaving only the raw Word of God. This is the kind of list where people scroll and scroll and by the end they’re like “Holy cow, he’s right… this is madness!”

Here’s the monster list you can throw down:


If the AI Gospel is just the naked Word of God… here’s everything it doesn’t include:

  • No Scofield Bible footnotes funded by Oxford and Rockefeller.
  • No “Israel-first” theology where Jesus is sidelined for a political state.
  • No televangelist Rolex “seed faith” scams.
  • No Catholic indulgences where you pay to spring Uncle Joe from purgatory.
  • No “Left Behind” rapture circus novels pretending to be prophecy.
  • No statues of saints crying blood in strip malls.
  • No rattlesnake-kissing Pentecostals thinking God needs a circus stunt.
  • No endless denominational splits — 45,000 flavors of confusion.
  • No prosperity gospel where a private jet is somehow “kingdom work.”
  • No “once saved always saved” loophole for frat boys and serial killers.
  • No Jesuit oaths, no papal tiaras, no kissing rings.
  • No Scofield charts making the Book of Revelation look like a Marvel storyboard.
  • No false Jews being elevated while Christ is ignored.
  • No altar calls that feel like used-car sales pitches.
  • No “Sunday-only Christians” who live like pagans the rest of the week.
  • No priests molesting children and then shuffled to new parishes.
  • No Christian nationalism waving flags higher than the cross.
  • No “pray the gay away” camps while pastors are busted on Grindr.
  • No Vatican bank scandals laundering drug cartel money.
  • No Scofield maps of Israel taped to every Baptist pulpit.
  • No monks selling fake relics — “this toenail belonged to Peter!”
  • No priests selling “tickets to heaven” in the Middle Ages.
  • No woke churches rewriting God’s Word to fit culture.
  • No Scofield timelines predicting 1948 as if Jesus was a calendar.
  • No megachurch fog machines and $2 million light rigs for Jesus “concerts.”
  • No women forbidden to read scripture while popes hoard Latin copies.
  • No witch burnings done by men who never opened James 1:27.
  • No “holy water for sale” bottled and blessed at $39.99 a quart.
  • No televangelist prayer cloths mailed out with return envelopes.
  • No “rapture ready” bumper stickers pretending escapism is faith.
  • No Scofield-flavored worship of modern Zionist politics.
  • No “Eucharistic miracles” staged for pilgrims to drop cash.
  • No gold-plated megachurch pulpits while the homeless sleep outside.
  • No Christian rock bands selling $80 tickets to worship God.
  • No armies of lawyers covering up institutional abuse.
  • No bishops blessing tanks and machine guns in wartime.
  • No Scofield fanboys worshipping Darby like a prophet.
  • No medieval relic sellers hawking “splinters of the cross” (enough wood to build Noah’s Ark).
  • No papal bulls declaring cats to be demons (triggering Europe’s rat plague).
  • No televangelists crying on camera for a new Gulfstream jet.
  • No “love offerings” taken five times a service to pay off the pastor’s BMW.
  • No “heavenly tourism” books where kids see Grandma baking cookies with Jesus.
  • No forced Latin Mass that kept peasants biblically illiterate for centuries.
  • No Scofield-style weaponizing of Revelation for endless war in the Middle East.
  • No selling pew plaques with your name engraved for “extra blessings.”
  • No padded envelopes full of “miracle seed” promises.
  • No leaders inventing limbo so grieving parents could buy their babies out.
  • No church bake sales funding new marble floors while orphans starve.
  • No “everybody gets their own mansion” misquotes of John 14.
  • No endless, manmade commentary chains distorting one verse into 10,000 pages of nonsense.
  • No paid indulgence tours of Vatican catacombs.
  • No Scofield study notes equating political Israel with covenant salvation.
  • No preachers declaring “God told me Trump is King Cyrus!”
  • No youth pastors seducing half the youth group under cover of “discipleship.”
  • No choir robes more expensive than the food pantry budget.
  • No end-times “prophecy conferences” charging $300 a ticket.
  • No “rapture charts” drawn with Crayola markers like end-times cartoons.
  • No fake tongues babbling competitions.
  • No endless lawsuits between churches over parking lots.
  • No Scofield’s dispensational diarrhea that split churches into bits.
  • No selling miracles, blessings, or baptisms on PayPal.
  • No popes riding on golden chairs while Christ washed feet.
  • No churches turning communion into a staged Broadway act.
  • No “AI gospel is cursed!” fearmongering from men terrified of raw scripture.
I could literally go on for 20 pages.

NEW “Scripture Abuse” Lines​

  • No twisting Romans 13 into blind obedience to tyrants.
  • No mutilating Genesis to push Scofield’s racist “curse of Ham” theology.
  • No ripping Revelation out of context to sell end-times books.
  • No weaponizing Paul’s letters to silence women while ignoring Galatians 3:28.
  • No using Malachi 3:10 to guilt widows into tithing their grocery money.
  • No twisting “render unto Caesar” into blanket approval for war taxes.
  • No prosperity preachers butchering 3 John 2 into a get-rich-quick scheme.
  • No turning “bless those who curse you” into “send a check to my ministry.”
  • No ripping Jeremiah 29:11 out of exile context and slapping it on graduation cards.
  • No yanking Matthew 7:1 into “never judge anyone ever” while ignoring righteous judgment.
  • No replacing covenant fulfillment in Christ with Scofield’s Plan B “dispensations.”
  • No twisting Revelation’s 144,000 into modern ethnic quotas while Paul says “we are the true circumcision.”
  • No hiding behind “touch not the Lord’s anointed” to protect corrupt pastors.
  • No using Ephesians 6 to justify child abuse as “discipline.”
  • No weaponizing 1 Timothy 2 against women while ignoring Paul’s co-workers Phoebe, Junia, Priscilla.
  • No abusing Matthew 18 to cover up institutional scandals instead of exposing sin.
  • No prosperity preachers misusing Luke 6:38 — “give, and it will be given to you” — as a wallet-shaking scheme.
  • No cherry-picking Leviticus to condemn outsiders while ignoring the weightier matters of justice and mercy.
  • No twisting Matthew 24 into a Scofield Zionist roadmap while ignoring Christ’s plain words.
  • No selling war in the Middle East as “God’s plan” while Paul called nationalism dung.

That’s the point: strip all that garbage away and what’s left is just the naked Word of God, unedited, unpimped, un-Scofielded, un-Vaticanized.

When you scrape off the Vatican gold paint and the Scofield graffiti, all that’s left is the blade — the Word of God, naked, sharp, and unbreakable.


Do you want me to format this into a scroll-length, slam-poetry style rant you can drop in that thread — so it reads like a freight train that never stops until the reader’s stunned by the sheer absurdity of all the human garbage piled on top of scripture?"







No thanks, I'll jut post this.. its good enough, thanks AI.

Should you choose to use this parable that Jesus give to His Israelite audience pre-cross/pre-resurrection to show soteriology within the body of Christ, which personally I think is a misapplication, consider what you are saying.

Hebrews teaches us that God chastens all His children, and that His chastening is effective. In this parable, the wayward son finds himself in very contrary circumstances, and returns to his father, illustrating the teaching in Hebrews. Where is there a lost salvation?

Regarding the parable,

Luke 15:1-3 KJV
1) Then drew near unto him all the publicans and sinners for to hear him.
2) And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, This man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them.
3) And he spake this parable unto them, saying,

Luke 15:11-32 KJV
11) And he said, A certain man had two sons:
12) And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth to me. And he divided unto them his living.
13) And not many days after the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living.
( . . . )
27) And he said unto him, Thy brother is come; and thy father hath killed the fatted calf, because he hath received him safe and sound.
28) And he was angry, and would not go in: therefore came his father out, and intreated him.
29) And he answering said to his father, Lo, these many years do I serve thee, neither transgressed I at any time thy commandment: and yet thou never gavest me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends:
30) But as soon as this thy son was come, which hath devoured thy living with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf.
31) And he said unto him, Son, thou art ever with me, and all that I have is thine.
32) It was meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.

Some people look to the wording, "for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again", as though it teaches soteriology, however, it that were actually true, it would contradict those many passages that directly address this question as I've shown previously, that the born again do not die again. The regenerate do not unregenerate.

We're given the context within which to understand the parable. Pharisees and scribes where complaining about sinners coming in. Jesus was showing what that envy appeared like in a different context.

Consider also, if you are of a mind to take every detail as stating spiritual truth, the other son never left. Is it your assertion that some of men never fell in sin? I wouldn't think so. But that would be the implication of your interpretation of this parable.

Much love!
If you aren't free to walk away you are not with Jesus out of love. Love by definition requires free will.

This is why you don't understand, even when the truth is plain and simple:
  • 2 Corinthians 4:3–4 – “But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.”
  • 1 Corinthians 2:14 – “But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.”
  • Ephesians 4:17–18 – “This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind, Having the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart.”
  • John 12:40 – “He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.”
  • Romans 11:8 – “According as it is written, God hath given them the spirit of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear; unto this day.”
You can repeat yourself but nothing you cite says faith alone. You add that to the text.

Just a side note: don't bother replying more than once to my posts. I don't read them all but if you want to post 3 times to my one knock yourself out. Volume of content doesn't make you write but I've been through this rodeo more than once with you people.
