An American Pope. Why? The Vicar of Jesus Christ? The Anti-Christ? Is The Roman Catholic Church Christian? What Is True Christianity?

The Catholic Church is Not Christian. Christianity, Jesus, The Bible Speaks Against the Catholic Church the Pope. The Pope is an Anti-Christ.

Matthew 23:9 And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.

1st Corinthians 8:6 But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.

Ephesians 4:6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.

It is Blasphemy for the Catholic Church to have a Pope, Priest’s that are All called Father!

The Catholic Church Priest are All Called Father, Blasphemy.

The Pope All Priest are Anti-Christ’s. They All Falsely Claim to have Exclusive Powers that Only Jesus has.

The Full passage:

Matthew 23:1 Then spake Jesus to the multitude, and to his disciples, 2 Saying, The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat: 3 All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do; but do not ye after their works: for they say, and do not. 4 For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men’s shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers. 5 But all their works they do for to be seen of men: they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments, 6 And love the uppermost rooms at feasts, and the chief seats in the synagogues, 7 And greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, Rabbi, Rabbi. 8 But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren. 9 And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven. 10 Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ. 11 But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant. 12 And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.

13 But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in.

14 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows’ houses, and for a pretence make long prayer: therefore ye shall receive the greater damnation.

15 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves.

16 Woe unto you, ye blind guides, which say, Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gold of the temple, he is a debtor!

17 Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gold, or the temple that sanctifieth the gold?

18 And, Whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whosoever sweareth by the gift that is upon it, he is guilty.

19 Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gift, or the altar that sanctifieth the gift?

20 Whoso therefore shall swear by the altar, sweareth by it, and by all things thereon.

21 And whoso shall swear by the temple, sweareth by it, and by him that dwelleth therein.

22 And he that shall swear by heaven, sweareth by the throne of God, and by him that sitteth thereon.

23 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.

24 Ye blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel.

25 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess.

26 Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first that which is within the cup and platter, that the outside of them may be clean also.

27 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men’s bones, and of all uncleanness.

28 Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.

29 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous,

30 And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.

31 Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets.

32 Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers.

33 Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?

The Above passage in Matthew Chapter 23 is about the Catholic Church.

It can also be applied to other False Churches.

If you know anything about the Catholic Church, it is OBVIOUS, Matthew Chapter 23 is talking directly about the Catholic Church.

(Yes, Jesus was Talking largely to a Jewish audience and directly to Jewish Pharisees. But All Scriptures are written to be applied to the Past and to the Future. Just look up Pharisee in an English Dictionary and you will understand the definition transcends the Past. The word Pharisee is used today to Describe a Traitor. Much like the word Judas is.)

1st Timothy 2:5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

Hebrews 7:22 By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament. 23 And they truly were many priests, because they were not suffered to continue by reason of death: 24 But this man, because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood. 25 Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them. 26 For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens; 27 Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people’s: for this he did once, when he offered up himself. 28 For the law maketh men high priests which have infirmity; but the word of the oath, which was since the law, maketh the Son, who is consecrated for evermore.

Jesus is the Only Mediator, that makes Intercessions for mankind to God the Father.

Jesus talks to God the Father for us. The Pagan, Anti-Christ Pope, his Anti-Christ Priests Claim they are Jesus and can do this for us.

The Anti-Christ Pope, All Anti-Christ Priests take Confessions and pretend to be a Mediator between them and God.

They require that ALL Catholics Confess their Sins to Priests. The Priest’s will tell them to do Penance, Hail Mary’s, whatever comes to their mind so they can Atone for their own Sins.

https://plain-talk-christian-ministries.com/2025/01/31/biblically-explaining-catholic-baptist-other-churches-use-definition-of-penance-repent-repentance/

Jesus is the Only Atonement for Sin.

The Catholic Church is Not a Christian Church. It is the opposite of Christianity.

In Christianity Jesus Christ is God our Savior. In the Catholic Church You have to pay for your own Sins and be your own Savior.

No informed Catholic, has any Faith that they will Die and Go Directly to Heaven. Because the Catholic Church teaches that if you are a Good Catholic you will go to Purgatory. Which is very much like Hell. But you can get out of Purgatory possibly, eventually, once you have paid for all of your sins sufficiently. Only True Catholic Saints will die and go directly to Heaven according to the Catholic Church.

Educated Catholics think that they will eventually go to Heaven. If on the Earth they live a life that is mostly good. They think their Good Works, their Good Behavior will get them into Heaven sometime in the Distant Future.

Jesus is the Only Atonement for Sin.

Romans 5:11 And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement.

Romans 5:6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. 7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. 8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. 10 For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life. 11 And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement. 12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: 13 (For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law. 14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam’s transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come. 15 But not as the offence, so also is the free gift. For if through the offence of one many be dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many. 16 And not as it was by one that sinned, so is the gift: for the judgment was by one to condemnation, but the free gift is of many offences unto justification. 17 For if by one man’s offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.) 18 Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life. 19 For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous. 20 Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:

21 That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.

Above in Romans Chapter 5 is Bible Salvation.

Jesus’ Blood Atonement will Save Everyone who Believes on Him Only to Save them from Hell. Jesus Alone made Atonement for All of the Sins of the World.

Believe the Gospel Only to Be Saved:

The Gospel:

1st Corinthians 15:1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

The Anti-Christ Pope / Priest’s

Matthew 24:4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. 5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.

Matthew 24:23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not. 24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.

2nd Peter 2:1 But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. 2 And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. 3 And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.

1st John 2:18 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. 20 But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things. 21 I have not written unto you because ye know not the truth, but because ye know it, and that no lie is of the truth. 22 Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. 23 Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: (but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also. 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. 27 But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him. 28 And now, little children, abide in him; that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before him at his coming. 29 If ye know that he is righteous, ye know that every one that doeth righteousness is born of him.

All of the Above Verses Speak Directly to the Anti-Christ Pope, his Anti-Christ Priest’s and the entire Catholic Church. Nothing could be more obvious.

Yes, it also Applies to All False Churches too.

Because Every False Church does the same things. Their False: Pastors, Evangelists, Teachers, etc…, set themselves up as God, as Anti-Christ’s by making themselves the Final Authority on Salvation. They Teach a False Works Based Gospel too.

Why an American Pope?

Pope Francis was highly unpopular in the USA. The USA is the Most Powerful Nation on the Earth, and thereis Not a Close Second. It is important to the Catholic Church to gain more Popularity in the USA. For Decades since the 1950’s the Popularity of the Catholic Church in the USA has been declining. Actually Worldwide the Popularity of the Catholic Church has been declining. It makes a lot of sense for the Catholic Church to finally have an American Pope, to boost the Popularity of the Catholic Church worldwide.

Is The Catholic Church Dying? The Numbers Tell The Story

Pope Leo XIV will stand against President Trump and his MAGA followers even more than Pope Francis did. I think the Deep State wants to use Pope Leo XIV to hurt President Trump as much as Possible. 

I Find it Interesting that President Trump who is a huge Catholic (He, has Declared his allegiance to the Catholic Church Repeatedly. His inner circle, and the MAGA Trump Media are almost all Catholic. Trump Doesn’t Go to Church except for Video Clips / Photo ops. Trump since he has been an adult has Not been a Church Goer. His Spiritual Adviser is Paula White, a Lost False Teacher.) supporter, has had the last Pope and this New Pope against him. President Trump over the Last 10 plus years, has Strongly Aligned himself with Catholics in Politics and in his MAGA Media outlets.

His? The Top Pro Trump MAGA Media Talking Heads are Mostly Catholic.

https://plain-talk-christian-ministries.com/2023/05/26/conservative-news-media-promotes-christianity-is-conservative-maga-news-media-christian/

President Trump is a slick Politician. He cannot afford to have any Religious Group against him. I think President Trump is the Best President the USA has had since President Lincoln. I am a MAGA Trump supporter but I Do Not Worship President Trump. I realize who President Trump is. He is a Great President of the United States but he is Not a Christian.

Christians, True Christianity Does Not Accept The Pope, The Roman Catholic Church.

https://plain-talk-christian-ministries.com/2023/05/31/the-catholic-church-101-is-the-catholic-church-christian/

The Catholic Church 101. Is The Catholic Church Christian?

No the Catholic Church is not Christian:

The Catholic Church is Satanic. Like Satan the Catholic Church Claims to be God. Yes this is True. The Pope is the Vicar of Christ, Literally Jesus. The Pope is an Antichrist.

1st John 2:18 “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.”

Mark 13:22 For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect. 23 But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things.

https://www.catholic.com/encyclopedia/vicar-of-christ

The Catholic Church Does Not Believe what the Christian Church Believes:

The Christian Church, Christianity is Based on Jesus Christ. The Catholic Church is based on Blessed Virgin Holy Mother Mary and other Saints the Catholic Church Worship.

Salvation for a Christian: The Gospel Only:

Romans 1:16 “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”

The Gospel: 1 Corinthians 15:1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

The Catholic Church DOES NOT Teach Salvation AT ALL:

In the Catholic Church you will Die NOT KNOWING if you are SAVED.

From the Catholic Church:

“In every circumstance, each one of us should hope, with the grace of God, to persevere ‘to the end’ and to obtain the joy of heaven, as God’s eternal reward for the good works accomplished with the grace of Christ,” (Catechism of the Catholic Church, 1821).

“…the Second Vatican Council confirms: ‘The bishops, successors of the apostles, receive from the Lord…the mission of teaching all peoples, and of preaching the Gospel to every creature, so that all men may attain salvation through faith, Baptism and the observance of the Commandments,’” (CCC, par 2068).

“The authority of the Magisterium extends also to the specific precepts of the natural law [i.e., 10 Commandments, CCC 2070], because their observance, demanded by the Creator, is necessary for salvation,” (CCC 2036).

As you can see from the previous quotes, Roman Catholicism says that Heaven is a Reward for Good Works. (CCC 1821) Salvation is NOT Through Jesus Christ. The Gospel Jesus Death, Burial, and Resurrection from the Dead is NOT Part of the Catholics Works Salvation. Catholics use the term Gospel But it is THE CATHOLIC GOSPEL, not Found in the Bible.

The Truth is the Catholic Church DOES NOT Teach a Person Can Know they are Saved:

The Best thing they can offer is you might Go to Purgatory. If you Observe the Commandments (CCC 2068; 2070, 2036). This is a Clear Rejection of the Teaching of Salvation by Grace Alone through Faith Alone in Jesus Christ Alone.

The Catholic: Church Maybe you will go to Purgatory by Works, Obeying the Catholic Churches Commandments.

Why this is NOT Biblical:

Romans 3:28 “Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.”

Romans 4:3 For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness.

4 Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.

5 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.

6 Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works,

7 Saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered.

8 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.

Galatians 3:10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continue not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.

11 But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith.

12 And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them.

13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:

James 2:10 “For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.”

As you can see from the Scriptures, We are made Right before God without the Law. This means that our Salvation is based on Faith Alone as Romans 4:5 clearly tells us: 5 “But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.”

In contradiction to this, the Roman Catholic Church says that Christians are Obligated to Keep some form of Law, only it’s not the 10 Commandments, in order to obtain Salvation. (CCC 1821, 2068, 2070, 2036).

The Catholic Church is NOT Christian because the Catholic Church has Murdered countless Millions of Christians:

The Catholic Church is called The Holy Roman Catholic Church. Europe for centuries fought Bloody Catholic Wars. England changed from Catholic to Protestant and back and forth. Under the Pope Catholic Nations murdered Millions of people who were not Catholic. People who refused to become Catholic.

The Bloody Roman Catholic Church:

1st it must be said that the Roman Catholic Church worked with the Nazis, Hitler during WW2. They enabled the Jewish Genocide. The Catholic Church now says that the Pope was Afraid of Germany and Hitler so this explains his actions. Well that is just a Lie. Proven by the Fact that the Catholic Church was against the Nazi’s being prosecuted for war Crimes. They helped thousands of Nazi’s war Criminals escape.

The Roman Catholic Church Once Ruled The World. The Catholic Church’s GENOCIDE OF CHRISTIANS:

The Roman Catholic Church reigned, between 538 AD – 1950 AD. During this time, the Papal Church persecuted the saints of God for not bowing down to her. It is said that at Least 50 MILLION Christians were Slaughtered during this time period of 1260 years. But in 1798, the French took the pope captive and the Roman Catholic Church lost it’s power. Take a look at a few quotes below stating the butchery of the Roman Church:

“The Waldenses were burned, they were cast into damp and horrid dungeons; they were smothered in crowds in mountain caverns, mothers and babes, and old men and women together; they were sent out in the winter night unclothed; they were hurled over the rocks; their houses and lands taken; their children were stolen to be indoctrinated into the religion that they abhorred. Thousands were hung, quartered, broken upon the wheel, or burned alive, all for the benefit of the king, and Holy See.” Thompson – The Papacy and the Civil power

“The Church of Rome has Shed More Innocent Blood than any other institution that has ever existed.” W.E.H. Lecky, History of the rise and influence of the spirit of rationalism in Europe, Vol.2 page32 1910

“On August 24 1572, Roman Catholics in France, by pre-arranged plan, under Jesuit influence, Murdered 70,000 Protestants within the space of two months. The pope rejoiced when he heard the news.” Western Watchman, Nov.21, 1912

“From the birth of popery to the present time, More than 50 Million of the human family have been slaughtered for the crime of heresy by the popish persecutors.” John Dowling, The history of Romanism, pages 541-542

Let me just state one of the quotes above again … “The church of Rome has shed more innocent blood than any other institution that has ever existed.” … Does that sound like Antichrist to you? It does to me!

It is also interesting to note that in March 12, 2000, pope John Paul II admitted the Roman Catholic Church killed the believers. So we can clearly see that the Roman Church has the Blood of the Saints on her hands.

Quotes from History about the Catholic Church from Catholics:

“The (Roman Church-State) power became supreme in Christendom in 538 AD, due to a letter of the Roman Emperor Justinian, known as Justinian’s decree, which setup and acknowledged the bishop of Rome as the head of all churches. It gave the (Roman Church-State) political power, civil power, as well as ecclesiastical power. This letter became part of Justinians code, the fundamental law of the empire, and that year, pope Vigilius ascended the throne under the military protection of Belasarius (one of Justinians Generals).”

Does the Roman Catholic Church speak great things, and blasphemies against God? Oh yes!! See a small sample below of the sort of ‘great things’ that the Catholic Church speaks:

“All must be subject to him (the pope) who has had all things put under him (the pope).” Evangelical Christendom, Jan 1, 1895, page 15

“The pope is of so great dignity, and so exalted, that he is not a mere man, but as it were God.” Ferraris Ecclesiastical Dictionary.

“No man may enter (into the kingdom) unless he is led by the Sovereign Pontiff, and only if they be united to him, can men be saved.” Pope John XXIII at his coronation, Nov.4, 1958

“Hence the pope is crowned with a triple crown, as king of heaven and of earth.” Lucius Ferraris, Prompta Bibliotheca, 1763 Volume VI, papa II, page 26

“This judicial authority will even include the power to forgive sin.” The Catholic Encyclopedia, Vol XII, page 265


“The pope is of great authority that he can modify divine laws, since his power is not of man, but of God.” Lucius Ferraris, Prompta Bibliotheca, papa II

“The authority of the church could therefore not be bound to the authority of the scriptures, because the church had changed the Sabbath into Sunday, not by command of Christ, but by it’s own authority.” Canon and Tradition, page 263

As we can see from the above Quotes, which is a very small sample of the thousands of Pompous Quotes, that the Roman Catholic Church has Spoken Against God. To say that You are God and Can Pardon Sins, is Blasphemy.

The Catholic Church Teaches:

The Following is a summarized paragraph with references found in the Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC) of many of the false teachings of Roman Catholicism. How do we know they are false? By comparing Scripture with what is taught.

The Catholic Church is the one true church (CCC 2105), Infallibility of the Catholic Church, (CCC 2035), Only the Roman Catholic Church has authority to interpret Scripture (CCC 100), The Pope is the head of the church and has the authority of Christ (CCC 2034), The Roman Catholic Church is necessary for salvation (CCC 846), Sacred Tradition equal to scripture (CCC 82), Forgiveness of sins, salvation, is by faith and works (CCC 2036 CCC 2080 2068), Full benefit of Salvation is only through the Roman Catholic Church (Vatican 2, Decree on Ecumenism, 3), Grace can be merited (CCC 2010 CCC 2027), The merit of Mary and the Saints can be applied to Catholics and others (1477), Penance is necessary for salvation (CCC 980), Purgatory (CCC 1031 CCC 1475), Indulgences (CCC 1471 CCC 1478 CCC 1498 CCC 1472), Mary is Mediatrix (CCC 969), Mary brings us the gifts of eternal salvation (CCC 969), Mary delivers souls from death (CCC 966), Prayer to the saints (CCC 2677), The Communion elements become the actual body and blood of Christ (CCC 1374 CCC 1376).

  1. The Catholic church is the one true church

CCC 2105 “The duty of offering God genuine worship concerns man both individually and socially. This is ‘the traditional Catholic teaching on the moral duty of individuals and societies toward the true religion and the one Church of Christ.’ By constantly evangelizing men, the Church works toward enabling them ‘to infuse the Christian spirit into the mentality and mores, laws and structures of the communities in which [they] live.’ The social duty of Christians is to respect and awaken in each man the love of the true and the good. It requires them to make known the worship of the one true religion which subsists in the Catholic and apostolic Church. Christians are called to be the light of the world. Thus, the Church shows forth the kingship of Christ over all creation and in particular over human societies.”

  1. Infallibility of the Catholic Church

    1. CCC 2035, “The supreme degree of participation in the authority of Christ is ensured by the charism of infallibility. This infallibility extends as far as does the deposit of divine Revelation; it also extends to all those elements of doctrine, including morals, without which the saving truths of the faith cannot be preserved, explained, or observed.”

  2. Only the Roman Catholic Church has the Authority to Interpret Scripture

    1. CCC 100, “The task of interpreting the Word of God authentically has been entrusted solely to the Magisterium of the Church, that is, to the Pope and to the bishops in communion with him.”

  3. The Pope is the Head of the Church and Has The Authority of Christ (This Is Blasphemy!)

    1. CCC 2034, “The Roman Pontiff and the bishops are ‘authentic teachers, that is, teachers endowed with the authority of Christ, who preach the faith to the people entrusted to them, the faith to be believed and put into practice.’ The ordinary and universal Magisterium of the Pope and the bishops in communion with him teach the faithful the truth to believe, the charity to practice, the beatitude to hope for.”

  4. The Roman Catholic Church Is Necessary for Salvation

    1. CCC 846, “How are we to understand this affirmation, often repeated by the Church Fathers? Re-formulated positively, it means that all salvation comes from Christ the Head through the Church which is his Body: Basing itself on Scripture and Tradition, the Council teaches that the Church, a pilgrim now on earth, is necessary for salvation: the one Christ is the mediator and the way of salvation; he is present to us in his body which is the Church. He himself explicitly asserted the necessity of faith and Baptism, and thereby affirmed at the same time the necessity of the Church which men enter through Baptism as through a door. Hence they could not be saved who, knowing that the Catholic Church was founded as necessary by God through Christ, would refuse either to enter it or to remain in it.”

  5. Sacred Tradition Equal To scripture

    1. CCC 82, “…the Church, to whom the transmission and interpretation of Revelation are entrusted, does not derive her certainty about all revealed truths from the holy Scriptures alone. Both Scripture and Tradition must be accepted and honored with equal sentiments of devotion and reverence.’”

  6. Forgiveness of Sins, Salvation, is by Faith and Works

    1. CCC 2036, “The specific precepts of the natural law, because their observance, demanded by the creator, is necessary for salvation.”

    2. CCC 2080, “The Decalogue contains a privileged expression of the natural law. It is made known to us by divine revelation and by human reason.”

    3. CCC 2068, “so that all men may attain salvation through faith, Baptism and the observance of the Commandments,”

  7. The full benefit of Salvation Is Only Through the Roman Catholic Church

    1. “For it is only through Christ’s Catholic Church, which is “the all-embracing means of salvation,” that they can benefit fully from the means of salvation,”  (Vatican 2, Decree on Ecumenism, 3).

  8. Grace can be Merited

    1. CCC 2010, “Moved by the Holy Spirit and by charity, we can then merit for ourselves and for others the graces needed for our sanctification.”

    2. CCC 2027, “Moved by the Holy Spirit, we can merit for ourselves and for others all the graces needed to attain eternal life, as well as necessary temporal goods.”

  9. The Merit of Mary and the Saints can be applied to Catholics and others

    1. 1477, “This treasury includes as well the prayers and good works of the Blessed Virgin Mary. They are truly immense, unfathomable, and even pristine in their value before God. In the treasury, too, are the prayers and good works of all the saints, all those who have followed in the footsteps of Christ the Lord and by his grace have made their lives holy and carried out the mission in the unity of the Mystical Body.”

  10. Penance is necessary for Salvation (The Definition of Penance: Voluntary Self-Punishment inflicted as an outward expression of repentance for having done wrong:“he had done public penance for those hasty words”)

    1. CCC 980, “This sacrament of Penance is necessary for salvation for those who have fallen after Baptism, just as Baptism is necessary for salvation for those who have not yet been reborn.”

  11. Purgatory

    1. CCC 1031, “The Church gives the name Purgatory to this final purification of the elect, which is entirely different from the punishment of the damned. The Church formulated her doctrine of faith on Purgatory especially at the Councils of Florence and Trent. The tradition of the Church, by reference to certain texts of Scripture, speaks of a cleansing fire:

    2. CCC 1475, “In the communion of saints, “a perennial link of charity exists between the faithful who have already reached their heavenly home, those who are expiating their sins in purgatory and those who are still pilgrims on earth. Between them there is, too, an abundant exchange of all good things.” In this wonderful exchange, the holiness of one profits others, well beyond the harm that the sin of one could cause others. Thus recourse to the communion of saints lets the contrite sinner be more promptly and efficaciously purified of the punishments for sin.

  12. Indulgences (In the Roman Catholic Church, A Grant by the Pope of Remission of the Temporal Punishment in Purgatory still due for Sins after Absolution. The unrestricted Sale of Indulgences by Pardoners was a widespread Abuse during the later Middle Ages.) (This is Blasphemy!!!)

    1. CCC 1471, “The doctrine and practice of indulgences in the Church are closely linked to the effects of the sacrament of Penance. What is an indulgence? ‘An indulgence is a remission before God of the temporal punishment due to sins whose guilt has already been forgiven, which the faithful Christian who is duly disposed gains under certain prescribed conditions through the action of the Church which, as the minister of redemption, dispenses and applies with authority the treasury of the satisfactions of Christ and the saints.’ ‘An indulgence is partial or plenary according as it removes either part or all of the temporal punishment due to sin.’ The faithful can gain indulgences for themselves or apply them to the dead.”

    2. CCC 1478, “An indulgence is obtained through the Church who, by virtue of the power of binding and loosing granted her by Christ Jesus, intervenes in favor of individual Christians and opens for them the treasury of the merits of Christ and the saints to obtain from the Father of mercies the remission of the temporal punishments due for their sins. Thus the Church does not want simply to come to the aid of these Christians, but also to spur them to works of devotion, penance, and charity.

    3. CCC 1498, “Through indulgences the faithful can obtain the remission of temporal punishment resulting from sin for themselves and also for the souls in Purgatory.”

    4. CCC 1472, “…On the other hand every sin, even venial, entails an unhealthy attachment to creatures, which must be purified either here on earth, or after death in the state called Purgatory. This purification frees one from what is called the “temporal punishment” of sin…”

  13. Mary (There are many false doctrines concerning Mary found in Roman Catholicism, here are a few.)     

    1. Mary is Mediatrix, CCC 969, “Therefore the Blessed Virgin is invoked in the Church under the titles of Advocate, Helper, Benefactress, and Mediatrix.’”

    2. Mary brings us the gifts of eternal salvation, CCC 969, “Taken up to heaven she did not lay aside this saving office but by her manifold intercession continues to bring us the gifts of eternal salvation…”

    3. Mary delivers souls from death, CCC 966, “…You [Mary] conceived the living God and, by your prayers, will deliver our souls from death.”

  14. Prayer to the Saints (Praying To The DEAD!!!)

    1. CCC 2677, “By asking Mary to pray for us, we acknowledge ourselves to be poor sinners and we address ourselves to the ‘Mother of Mercy,’ the All-Holy One. We give ourselves over to her now, in the Today of our lives. And our trust broadens further, already at the present moment, to surrender ‘the hour of our death’ wholly to her care.”

  15. The Communion elements become the ACTUAL Body and Blood of Christ (Cannibalism!)

    1. CCC 1374, “In the most blessed sacrament of the Eucharist “the body and blood, together with the soul and divinity, of our Lord Jesus Christ and, therefore, the whole Christ is truly, really, and substantially contained.”

    2. CCC 1376, “The Council of Trent summarizes the Catholic faith by declaring: “Because Christ our Redeemer said that it was truly his body that he was offering under the species of bread, it has always been the conviction of the Church of God, and this holy Council now declares again, that by the consecration of the bread and wine there takes place a change of the whole substance of the bread into the substance of the body of Christ our Lord and of the whole substance of the wine into the substance of his blood. This change the holy Catholic Church has fittingly and properly called transubstantiation.”
