I. Introductory Verses
Proverbs 3:21-22
“21 My son, let not them depart from thine eyes; keep sound wisdom and discretion:
22 So shall they be life unto thy soul, and grace to thy neck.”
Galatians 1:8
“But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.”
1 John 2:18-19
“18 Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.
19 They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.”
1 John 2:24-26
“24 Let that therefore abide in you, which ye have heard from the beginning. If that which ye have heard from the beginning shall remain in you, ye also shall continue in the Son, and in the Father.
25 And this is the promise that he hath promised us, even eternal life.
26 These things have I written unto you concerning them that seduce you.“
2 Corinthians 11:4
“For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him.”
2 Corinthians 11:13-15
“13 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.
14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.”
2 Corinthians 6:16-17
“16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? For ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you.”
1 Timothy 1:3
“As I besought thee to abide still at Ephesus, when I went into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge some that they teach no other doctrine,”
Titus 1:9
“Holding fast the faithful word as he hath been taught, that he may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers.”
2 Peter 3:15-17
“15 And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you;
16 As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.
17 Ye therefore, beloved, seeing ye know these things before, beware lest ye also, being led away with the error of the wicked, fall from your own steadfastness.”
Acts 20:29-30
“29 For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock.
30 Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.”
II. Caution Regarding Biblical References
Editors of the Bible and complicit religious organisations have engaged in a process of Bible falsification through new editions, where the original text is replaced with interpretations that are supposed to facilitate understanding but may differ greatly from the initial text. Therefore, we recommend using Bibles with a publication date of 1910 or earlier (Louis Segond 1910, Darby, Martin, King James). If you are Catholic and do not trust these translations, use the Jerusalem Bible edition 1950. Avoid recent editions, such as Louis Segond 1985, Parole Vivante, Parole de Vie. You can search for the cited references on Google and quickly find and read them in these older editions of the Bible. Using Google will generally be faster than searching in a paper Bible.
Catholicism, True Christianity, or Falsification of Christianity – Part 1 Preface
The aim here is to determine if those who accuse Catholicism of not being Christianity and of being a path to perdition are correct. The goal is to analyse the arguments that can be advanced in this direction with a spirit of seeking the truth.
Firstly, let’s admit one thing: a particular denomination does not save (Catholicism, Protestantism, Pentecostalism…).
However, a denomination can lead to perdition, to hell, due to its doctrine and teachings, for those who adhere to it. For example, there was a “church” that asked its members to all kill themselves by burning, thus committing self-immolation. It is clear that this is an example of leading to perdition.
This is also what Jesus Christ condemns in Revelation, condemning the doctrine and deeds of the Nicolaitans, and those who engage in them.
Revelation 2:6
“But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate.”
Revelation 2:15
“So hast thou also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitans, which thing I hate.”
You can read all of Revelation 2 for more information. The comparison to Balaam is very interesting, as it speaks of a prophet of God who instructed a king on how to lead the children of Israel into iniquity related to idolatry and immorality, making them abominable to God due to the things the King had offered or promised. Thus rendered abominable, they became vulnerable to enchantments (magic, sorcery…) and especially to God’s wrath. God indeed made several perish.
Similarly, Jesus Christ says:
Revelation 2:16
“Repent; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth.”
Jesus Christ clearly states that He will fight within the church to which He is addressing, those attached to false doctrines. The connections between Catholicism and Roman power, its attachment to statues and idols, can indeed be seen as an illustration of the doctrine of the Nicolaitans. For now, let’s consider this just a suspicion and move forward, acknowledging from Jesus Christ Himself that a denomination can lead people astray through false doctrines that will push them to do works that the Lord hates, leading to their perdition.
A Church Can Be Dead and the Lord Judges Based on Works
Here is what the Lord Jesus Christ says to a church:
Revelation 3:1-6
“1 And unto the angel of the church in Sardis write; These things saith he that hath the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars; I know thy works, that thou hast a name that thou livest, and art dead.
2 Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found thy works perfect before God.
3 Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.
4 Thou hast a few names even in Sardis which have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with me in white: for they are worthy.
5 He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.
6 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.”
Next, we will see if Catholicism is not such a denomination, or worse as some say, a falsification of Christianity, a sort of counterfeit that can only deceive people if it resembles the true currency sufficiently to cause confusion.
Catholicism, True Christianity, or Counterfeit Christianity – Part 1
I want us to reflect together to find the truth.
Let us seek the truth without passion, knowing that the stakes are the salvation or damnation of our soul if we are Catholic, eternal life or death.
I will question you, and you will answer me. You or anyone who supports Catholicism.
In the upcoming messages, I will ask my questions, and I truly hope to read or hear your responses.
- What are the two greatest commandments according to Jesus Christ?
- What are the first two of the Ten Commandments? What punishment was prescribed for their transgression?
- If it doesn’t matter which denomination one is in, how should we understand the following verses:
2 Corinthians 6:16-17
16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? For ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you.
and this one:
Revelation 18:4
4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.
The teaching of Catholicism has points in common with Christian teachings, but it destroys the pillars of Christianity. And it is these destroyed pillars that lead to death. It is a counterfeit Christianity, a kind of false currency that can only effectively deceive people if it resembles the true currency enough to be mistaken for it. This is what needs to be proven in the following.
Catholicism, True Christianity, or Counterfeit Christianity – Part 1.3 – Basic Answers
While recalling that we agree that the Church does not save, but I say it can kill, I will review my questions and their answers.
Q1) What are the two greatest commandments according to Jesus Christ?
Mark 12:29-31
29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:
30 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.
31 And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.
I hope it is now clear to everyone that the first and most important commandment is not about the neighbour, but about God. As we will see, this is the commandment that Catholicism has most directly destroyed. The one concerning the neighbour has been more subtly destroyed. In appearance, it has been maintained; in reality, it has been destroyed. But that is another topic. Let us focus on the first commandment.
Q2)
a. What are the first two of the Ten Commandments?
Exodus 20:3
1st of the 10: 3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
2nd of the 10: 4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
Note here that these two fit into the greatest commandment cited by Jesus Christ. This underscores their importance.
b. What punishment was prescribed for their transgression?
Death. It includes both physical death and the death of the soul.
Death was the prescribed punishment (see Deuteronomy 13) [https://saintebible.com/lsg/deuteronomy/13.htm].
Here is an excerpt:
Deuteronomy 13:6-10
6 If thy brother, the son of thy mother, or thy son, or thy daughter, or the wife of thy bosom, or thy friend, which is as thine own soul, entice thee secretly, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, which thou hast not known, thou, nor thy fathers;
7 Namely, of the gods of the people which are round about you, nigh unto thee, or far off from thee, from the one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth;
8 Thou shalt not consent unto him, nor hearken unto him; neither shalt thine eye pity him, neither shalt thou spare, neither shalt thou conceal him:
9 But thou shalt surely kill him; thine hand shall be first upon him to put him to death, and afterward the hand of all the people.
10 And thou shalt stone him with stones, that he die; because he hath sought to thrust thee away from the Lord thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.
Regarding statues, let us read:
Deuteronomy 16:22
22 Thou shalt not set thee up any image; which the Lord thy God hateth.
Note that this verse speaks exclusively of images, not idols.
Deuteronomy 4:15-19
15 Take ye therefore good heed unto yourselves; for ye saw no manner of similitude on the day that the Lord spake unto you in Horeb out of the midst of the fire:
16 Lest ye corrupt yourselves, and make you a graven image, the similitude of any figure, the likeness of male or female,
17 The likeness of any beast that is on the earth, the likeness of any winged fowl that flieth in the air,
18 The likeness of any thing that creepeth on the ground, the likeness of any fish that is in the waters beneath the earth:
19 And lest thou lift up thine eyes unto heaven, and when thou seest the sun, and the moon, and the stars, even all the host of heaven, shouldest be driven to worship them, and serve them, which the Lord thy God hath divided unto all nations under the whole heaven.
Take good heed unto yourselves is very significant because statues lead to the perdition of the soul.
2 Kings 18:4
4 He removed the high places, and brake the images, and cut down the groves, and brake in pieces the brasen serpent that Moses had made; for unto those days the children of Israel did burn incense to it: and he called it Nehushtan.
Note here that images and idols are discussed separately.
For those who wish to justify statues by the fact that God commanded Moses to make the bronze serpent or by the instructions regarding the temple, they should answer the following questions, noting that the serpent made by Moses was destroyed as mentioned above:
- When the legislator gives a rule and provides an exception, does this, in effect, authorize everyone to willingly break the rule without the legislator’s consent? (yes/no)
- Do you know that the 2nd Commandment first forbids making statues (simply not making them), and that there is a point marking the end of this prohibition before the second part tells not to worship them?
- Are you aware that this commandment is accompanied by a promise of punishment unto the 4th generation?
- Do you know that God further explains why He commanded not to make images, specifying that He has never shown a face and therefore we should not represent a face in a statue?
- Are you aware that the Bible has never described the faces of Mary or Jesus, and therefore what is in statues cannot be either of them?
- Why, while you are at it, did you not give this veneration to John the Baptist, who was greater than Mary, who baptised Jesus, and prepared His coming?
- Can you estimate the number of verses where God warns against making statues and the associated punishments?
- In light of all this, do you think that someone who fears God can freely make statues without the rule being abrogated because there was once an exception?
Remember that the Jews who came out of Egypt did not enter the promised land not because they had sinned against their neighbor, but because they had made and worshipped a golden calf or because they had shown disbelief towards God and His power.
How will those who, in blatant violation of the word of God, use statues for religious purposes escape?
You are making a grave mistake if you limit Christianity to the love of one’s neighbor; it is secondary.
I will show you that Catholicism has created at least one other god, in addition to being fully involved in statues. Catholicism will try to justify the statues without being able to tell you which apostle preached or used statues, and why Paul was attacked for saying not to make statues, without advising those who feared losing their jobs to now make statues of Jesus or Mary.
Q3) If it doesn’t matter where we are, how should we understand the verses 2 Corinthians 6:16-17 and Revelation 18:4 stated above?
Answer: It is clear that God Himself calls to come out from among something where He is, so as not to partake in its plagues, that is, its punishments. The description of this thing as given in Revelation clearly reminds us of Catholicism.
Nevertheless, I will start by showing that Catholicism has created one or more other gods.
For today, remember that the greatest commandments are related to the relationship with God and not with the neighbor. Their transgression leads to death. I will show you how Catholicism does this.
Catholicism, True Christianity, or Counterfeit Christianity
II. The Implicit Creation of a New God Called Mary
- Let’s discuss prayers to Mary.
Can you simply explain how she manages to listen simultaneously to everyone in the world who prays to her?
When you have a billion people spread across the globe praying to her at the same time, how can she listen if she does not have the following two abilities:
- Gift of omnipresence (to listen simultaneously to people in all cities around the world)
- Gift of infinite request processing (imagine more than a billion requests to process per minute)
Recognize that no human can justify such abilities, and thus, assuming them for Mary implicitly makes her a god called Mary. And we confirm her role as a god by addressing prayers to her.
We implicitly make her a god, thus transgressing the 1st of the Ten Commandments (whose sanction is death).
Exodus 20:3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
We then make statues, thus transgressing the 2nd of the Ten Commandments (whose sanction is the death of the soul, perdition).
Deuteronomy 16:22 Thou shalt not set thee up any image; which the Lord thy God hateth.
Catholicism, by encouraging people to transgress the two most important of the Ten Commandments, those relating to the greatest commandment (love God), prepares people for perdition. It stands in direct opposition to Christianity.
Do you have a rational response to this argument of creating a new god?
The Roman king who killed Jesus Christ (for it was indeed a Roman king who killed Him, and it was in Rome that Peter and Paul were murdered, this Rome that you believe established Christianity after these crimes), killed Him recognising Him as just, at the request of the priests (the clergy of the time), and to please them and the crowd. This is how Catholicism has generally operated: killing Jesus Christ to please the crowd or the powerful.
Rather than following the lineage of Paul, who had been attacked by the Romans for telling them not to make idols and who saw it as a loss of their profits (for they did not consider statues that were not idols, and Paul never gave them this advice), Rome chose to put up statues everywhere.
The Queen of Heaven, for whom the people had been reproached by God (see Jeremiah), returned through Catholicism, just as the Ephesian Diana was given the name Mary and the blasphemous title of Mother of God, to make her a deity and give her precedence over God (for normally, your mother is honored before you). The Pope has not repented for asking to bless homosexuals; he has remained in continuity with the logic of Catholicism.
Catholic here means universal, in the sense of uniting Christianity with paganism so that everyone can find themselves in it. However, Christianity does not mix (Deuteronomy 18). What the Pope did was say, “where the peoples do not reject this decision, apply it. Where they reject it, do not apply it.” In each case, it pleases the crowd. Otherwise, he would have simply abrogated the decision everywhere. In fact, he took a strategic option: to maintain the decision in Africa and empty his “church” due to the anger of the faithful or not to maintain it to keep the faithful.
His decision has nothing to do with repentance or with Christ. God has given you a clear sign through this. Those who harden themselves and refuse to see will blame no one but themselves for their fate.
III. The Worship of the Dead and Catholicism
Are you aware that the Bible prohibits speaking to the dead? Catholicism encourages praying to the dead, whom it calls saints, which amounts to worship of the dead.
1 Chronicles 10:13 Saul died because he was unfaithful to the LORD, and he did not keep the word of the LORD, and also because he consulted and inquired of the dead.
Leviticus 20:6 If anyone turns to mediums and spiritists, to prostitute themselves by following them, I will set my face against them and will cut them off from their people.
Deuteronomy 18:9-11 “When you enter the land the LORD your God is giving you, do not learn to imitate the detestable ways of the nations there. Let no one be found among you who sacrifices their son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft, or casts spells, or who is a medium or spiritist or who consults the dead.”
John 14:23 Jesus replied, “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them.”
Matthew 28:20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.
Christians are supposed to have Christ living in them. How can one reach the living Christ through the dead who are not in you (since they are dead)? Isn’t this an acknowledgment of not knowing Jesus Christ? Doesn’t it imply not believing in Christ?
Did Jesus Christ prescribe prayers to the dead?
At this point, I can already say that Catholicism has broken three pillars, each of which leads to death when broken. It denies the words of Christ and shows total disbelief as per John 14:23. It has introduced many things, including those we have seen, which were not part of the original gospel or the early church. Moreover, it falsely claims to be the first church.
We will analyse this falsehood, as well as the worship of angels, and conclude why, according to the Bible, we can say that this religion is not Christianity but rather the Antichrist. Later, I may describe the revelation I received from God about this worship of Baal, this form of magic disguised as Christianity.
IV. The Worship of Angels and Catholicism
Catholicism prays to the dead and to angels. But what does the Bible say?
Colossians 2:18 Do not let anyone who delights in false humility and the worship of angels disqualify you. Such a person also goes into great detail about what they have seen; they are puffed up with idle notions by their unspiritual mind.
Romans 1:26 They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen.
V. Falsifications of Christianity and the Antichrists
Galatians 1:8 But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let them be under God’s curse!
Catholicism preaches another gospel, incorporating a god called Mary, statues, prayers to the dead, and to angels.
1 John 2:18-19, 1 John 2:24-26 18 Dear children, this is the last hour; and as you have heard that the Antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come. This is how we know it is the last hour. 19 They went out from us, but they did not really belong to us; for if they had belonged to us, they would have remained with us; but their going showed that none of them belonged to us. 24 As for you, see that what you have heard from the beginning remains in you. If it does, you also will remain in the Son and in the Father. 25 And this is what he promised us—eternal life. 26 I am writing these things to you about those who are trying to lead you astray.
We are instructed to remain in what we heard from the beginning. Catholicism denies the Bible as the basis of faith and introduces what was rejected from the beginning.
2 Corinthians 11:4 For if someone comes to you and preaches a Jesus other than the Jesus we preached, or if you receive a different spirit from the one you received, or a different gospel from the one you accepted, you put up with it easily enough.
Here we see that there is another Jesus and that people receive another spirit, another gospel. Unfortunately, people believe it to be the gospel of Jesus Christ, that it is the Spirit of God, even though the warnings are clear.
2 Corinthians 11:13-15 13 For such people are false apostles, deceitful workers, masquerading as apostles of Christ. 14 And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. 15 It is not surprising, then, if his servants also masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will be what their actions deserve.
2 Corinthians 6:14-17 16 What harmony is there between the temple of God and idols? For we are the temple of the living God. As God has said: “I will live with them and walk among them, and I will be their God, and they will be my people.” 17 “Therefore come out from them and be separate, says the Lord. Touch no unclean thing, and I will receive you.”
2 John 1:9-10 9 Anyone who runs ahead and does not continue in the teaching of Christ does not have God; whoever continues in the teaching has both the Father and the Son. 10 If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not take them into your house or welcome them.
Ephesians 4:14 Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of people in their deceitful scheming.
1 Timothy 1:3 As I urged you when I went into Macedonia, stay there in Ephesus so that you may command certain people not to teach false doctrines.
Titus 1:9 He must hold firmly to the trustworthy message as it has been taught, so that he can encourage others by sound doctrine and refute those who oppose it.
Acts 20:29-30 29 I know that after I leave, savage wolves will come in among you and will not spare the flock. 30 Even from your own number men will arise and distort the truth in order to draw away disciples after them.
1 Corinthians 15:1-2 1 Now, brothers and sisters, I want to remind you of the gospel I preached to you, which you received and on which you have taken your stand. 2 By this gospel you are saved, if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you. Otherwise, you have believed in vain.
Catholicism has strayed from the initial doctrine and introduced prohibitions leading to death. It has even denied the mission of Jesus Christ and pushes its followers to confess, without realizing it, their unbelief in Christ. There is no faith that saves in practicing things that God abhors when one persists despite being warned. It is time to leave this Antichrist before the judgment reserved for it falls upon it and especially before leaving this earth, to avoid perdition. One does not play with their life. Imagine if God asks you why you did not believe despite all the signs He gave you through me and certainly through others? Through the scriptures? Why did you choose to risk offending Him even if you were not sure? Wisdom advises caution, and caution recommends doing what you are sure is not reprehensible, that cannot lead you to perdition.
VI. The Legitimacy of Roman Catholicism as the “First Church”
How could the Romans who crucified Jesus Christ at the request of the Jews to please the crowd while knowing He was just, who killed the apostles James, Peter, and Paul, have created the Church representing the faith in Jesus Christ? Isn’t this suspicious?
How did they manage to appoint a successor to Peter (the apostle to the circumcised) who would be the head of everyone while Paul (the apostle to the Gentiles) was not subject to Peter, nor were all the churches he established?
There was no hierarchy of submission of churches to a human, except to Jesus Christ Himself.
Some argue that since Paul, who persecuted the church, later became its great promoter, so it would be for the Romans. However, Paul persecuted the church out of zeal for God, believing he was doing what was right according to God’s way, but he was doing it wrong. In contrast, the history of Roman Catholicism shows a tendency to repeat what happened at Jesus’ death, that is, the tendency to “kill” Jesus Christ to please the crowd. Here, this translates into the integration of statues, the blessing of same-sex couples, prayers to Mary (to make room for Diana of the Ephesians, the Queen of Heaven…).
The following link provides a historical idea of this evolution of Roman Catholicism.
Roman Catholicism, in its vision of universality, has achieved a blend of paganism and Christianity, with universality here referring to the mixing of religions to attract the maximum number of people. However, Christianity does not blend and prohibits all communication with the dead.
VI. Reminder of God’s Punishments for Offenses Against God
Many confuse God’s grace with impunity, under the pretense that one has faith.
Let us read what is written here:
1 Corinthians 11:27-30
27 Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.
28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup.
29 For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord’s body.
30 For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.
Notice here that many are dead! Despite the fact that they believed in a grace that would systematically forgive their guilty actions.
Hebrews 10:26-27
26 For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,
27 But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.
Do you see what is promised to those who remain in sin?
Matthew 7:22-23
22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
Those whom Jesus Christ will cast out, did they not think they were saved by their faith and everything they did?
Galatians 5:19-21
19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,
21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
Matthew 7:21
21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
VII. The Denial of Christ’s Mission and the Promotion of Unbelief by Catholicism
Few people who claim to be Christians understand the mission of Jesus Christ. Generally speaking, they do not believe in Jesus Christ. Let us recall that there is a difference between “believing in Jesus Christ” and “believing Jesus Christ.”
What does it mean to “believe in Jesus”?
In a French dictionary, we read this definition for believing in someone:
Believing in someone means having confidence in him, in his talents, in his word.
According to a link from the French Academy that distinguishes between “believing in” and “believing,” it says:
Believing in someone means that one holds their existence to be certain, that one admits their power.
Believing in someone or something marks a more confident surrender than believing, an adhesion, often from the heart, which may lead to moral or even religious behavior.
Thus, I can conclude that in the case of Jesus Christ, “believing in him” means:
- Having complete trust in him, his word, and his talents
- Believing in the truth of what he has said and in what the prophets have said about him
- Believing that he is capable of fulfilling his promises and mission
- Attesting to this belief by respecting his word (Matthew 7:21-23), especially in the face of persecution or danger.
What was Jesus’ mission, what does he say, and what do his apostles say?
John 8:32-36
32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
33 They answered him, We be Abraham’s seed, and were never in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free?
34 Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.
35 And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth ever.
36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.
John 14:6
6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Jesus clearly says here that he comes to set free those who know him.
This is confirmed by the apostle John, who also provides a criterion for recognizing the children of God and the children of the devil.
1 John 3:5-10
5 And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin.
6 Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.
7 Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.
Now, what do Catholics say in their confession, “I confess to God”?
“I confess to Almighty God, I acknowledge before you, brothers and sisters, that I have sinned in thought, word, deed, and omission; yes, I have truly sinned.”
If we reread the above 1 John, they are confessing that they are of the devil! What should have been a one-time confession at the time of repentance is said all the time!
Some might ask, “Do you believe that a man can live without sinning? Is that your life?”
My response:
Is it to me that you should believe or in Jesus Christ?
Do you believe that Jesus Christ has the power to free a man from sin?
Or do you think he does not have that power?
If you believe he does not have it, you do not believe “in Jesus,” because you do not believe in his words or his abilities.
If you believe he has that power, what gives you the right to say that he cannot apply it to any man? That is, not to believe in his word?
Someone might remind me of the text:
1 John 1:8
8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
But it is the same apostle who later, in the same book, says that he who sins is of the devil. Understand that we have all sinned; this is indisputable. Just as we were all nursed when we were babies. We cannot say that we have no sin. However, Christ has freed us and now allows us to live free from sin. Do you believe that Christ does not have the capability?
I return to the question “Do you believe that a man can live without sinning?” and I will answer YES, I believe it and I know it, because I believe in Jesus Christ, and the Bible provides several cases. Meditate on the following verses:
People in the Bible who lived free from sin at some point
Luke 1:5-6
5 There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judaea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the course of Abia: and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elisabeth.
6 And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.
“Never have I transgressed the commandment of the holy one.” Job 6:10
“Make me to understand my error.” Job 6:24
Revelation 14:5
5 And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God.
What has been said to Christians
Romans 6:1-2
1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
2 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?
Romans 6:11
11 Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Romans 6:22
22 But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.
Those who cannot consider themselves as dead to sin and confess that they remain in sin confess that they do not believe in Jesus Christ, nor in his ability to free them from sin. They implicitly declare themselves to be of the devil (1 John 3:4-10). Because of their unbelief, they remain in sin, and by remaining in it, they reinforce their unbelief.
We are reminded of this:
Jude 1:5
5 I will therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this, how that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that believed not.
Those who deny the mission of Jesus Christ are unbelievers, and those who do so explicitly in their doctrine position themselves clearly as antichrist.
2 Timothy 4:3-4
3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
VII. Catholicism and the Destruction of the Love of Neighbor
This is not unique to Catholicism but applies to all those who have preached unbelief in the power of Jesus Christ to free us from sin while pretending to preach faith in Jesus Christ.
Listening to this priest reminds me of the story told to me about an unfaithful woman who put sleeping pills in her husband’s food and then complained that he slept too much at night, proving that he was going elsewhere.
When you come to someone and say “you shall love your neighbor as yourself,” it appears to be piety. But when you then say, “listen, we are all sinners and sin every day, we are saved by grace because God forgives us, it is impossible to leave sin,” what message are you really giving? It is this: “If you can, behave well towards your neighbor. But since it is impossible, do what you can, and God will forgive your sins.” Often with the addition “the flesh is weak.” And when the priest or pastor who tells you this is known for his adulteries, backhanded actions, and so on, and concludes by saying “do as I say and not as I do,” what lesson do you take from that? That if he, the master, has not been able to do it, how many times will you, the student, be able to do it?
Thus, preaching unbelief in Jesus Christ’s ability to remove sin has indeed created communities of sinners who call themselves Christians and express their true nature through their works.
The natural man indeed cannot alone be freed from sin. It is not solely through exhortations and speeches that men can be changed. Change comes from faith in Jesus Christ’s ability to deliver us from sin, a faith that produces repentance and leads to true baptism. This baptism allows one to shed the weakness of the flesh, to receive the Spirit of God, to be led by Him, and to gain victory over sin.
We have been invited to sanctification, to leave sin. It is quite rightly that this priest calls all those who live in sin and call themselves Christians, false Christians. However, they have been shaped by the erroneous teachings of their denominations, with Catholicism being the foremost. Each one should therefore question the success of Catholicism or any other denomination preaching unbelief in Jesus Christ’s ability to free from sin, leading them to Christ, if they remain attached to sin. Catholicism, having directly transgressed the first commandment, has cleverly destroyed the second.
Let no one deceive you, he who sins is of the devil. And furthermore:
Romans 8:13
13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.
In my next message, I will provide several more verses to confirm this. All those who, under the appearance of faith, preach unbelief in Jesus Christ’s ability to free man from sin, to lead humans out of sin, actually show that they do not have faith in Jesus Christ. They are charting the path of perdition for themselves and those who follow them, and not the path of salvation.
VIII. Other Curiosities of Catholicism and the Proof of the Existence of Dead Churches
- The Pope is elected by humans. Do you know of any prophet, apostle, or high priest in the Bible who was appointed by human election? I have seen that it is God who has always chosen and made known His choice to the people, usually through the prophets. Isn’t this proof that the Catholic hierarchy does not have contact with God?
- St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome is built over the graves of Peter and Paul, who were killed by the Romans, just like James. Is Christianity a religion of death, based on the veneration of the dead and unity in death, or is it a religion of life?
- Do those who killed the apostles have the legitimacy to appoint their successors?
An church can be dead, and the Lord judges according to deeds, as we saw at the beginning of this document.
Here is what the Lord Jesus Christ says to a church.
Be attentive. He speaks of her deeds, not her faith.
He says that she is dead though appearing to be alive. There are just a few people who are still okay.
Since this is about the church of a locality, we can imagine that these few men have kept what was received and heard at the beginning, as John says in his epistle, and as it also appears here. People who have not turned to false doctrines. Read carefully, and tell me why I cannot warn similarly when the Lord shows me that a “church” is dead, or worse, is a church of Baals, though it appears to be alive.
Remember, He did not say that her faith saved or would save her, but rather “I know thy works,” “I have not found thy works perfect…”
End of my demonstration on Catholicism
I will conclude this series with a list of testimonies from various sources, including former priests, about the reality of Catholicism.
If everything I have said so far has not been enough, listen, watch, and read these testimonies.
If you persist after all this in this falsification of Christianity, by praying to Mary or the saints or angels, using statues, confessing your “eternal” dwelling in sin, thus manifesting unbelief in Christ, you will have chosen your path, and I am free of your blood. Do not be deceived, the end of these things is death. God warns those who do these things in ignorance. Nevertheless, if you reject knowledge, you make yourself guilty.
May God enlighten you! May the devil’s enchantments on the children of promise be broken, in the name of Jesus Christ!

If you look at the image on the right, the cross that the Pope is wearing (I am not talking about the multicolored cross, which itself poses another problem, but the one underneath). It is not very visible without zoom, but with attention, you will see that the man on the cross has his arms crossed exactly like some singers. On the cross, one is supposed to have the arms nailed, not crossed, but pay attention and you will see that this arm crossing corresponds to a Buddhist spiritual sign (The vajrahūṃkāra-mudrā) as explained here: https://bouddhismes.net/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=146 &catid=15&Itemid=131
