Q: What is the difference between catholic and Roman Catholic? Trevor (NZ)
A: The word catholic is a middle English adjective in common usage meaning; all-encompassing, or indiscriminate, as used in such phrases as; Berkshire sows are not fussy what they eat, their diet is very catholic.
The term Roman Catholic refers to the pseudo-Christian cult based in Rome. A demonic religious system created to ensnare the gullible with a false gospel, and pay allegiance to the Pontif as “Vicar of Christ on Earth”. The Roman Catholic church is currently promoting the Ecumenical Movement, attempting to unite nominal Christians under their headship.
Genuine Christians reject such folly
1583 Foxe’s Martyrs: Written, illustrated, and published by eyewitnesses. Read first-hand accounts of the black-doings of popery, and the enormous price paid by our Christian brothers and sisters, who defied Satan and stood for Christ.
The word catholic, in the first sense, has been included by some Protestant groups as part of their “creed”; meaning the universal body of believers on Earth.
Such practise is unwise because those fellowships risk being swallowed up in Satan’s Ecumenical Movement, as the antiChrist spirit comes to prominence in these Final Days.
If your fellowship uses the word catholic in its creed, it’s a clear sign its leadership are asleep at the wheel and off the rails, so come out and find a Spirit-filled fellowship, where you will have opportunity to hear the true Gospel of The LORD Jesus Christ and be saved the Bible way.
Rome’s biscuit god
Trust us or we kill you
Millions of people have been tortured, burned alive, and butchered across the world because they refused to believe the foolish lies of Rome. Three million perished in Spain alone at the hands of the Roman Catholic Inquisition.
If not for the valiant Reformers, the Gospel of Christ would have remained smothered in the blanket of falsehoods embroidered for centuries by The Mother of Harlots: The Vatican. But… thanks be to Almighty God, the Reformation maxim was established, and has been proclaimed by Christians worldwide ever since…
Faith Alone: In Christ Alone: By Grace Alone
We receive the eternal life of Christ by simple heart faith in Him, and His finished sacrifice, paid once and for all. This happens the instant a sinner repents of unbelief and receives Christ as LORD and Saviour. The Holy Spirit washes and regenerates them spiritually making them a new creature in Christ: They are born again spiritually.
This perfect salvation is entirely by faith in Christ alone, because of His grace, not by any works, or merit of ourselves. The faith OF Christ redeems us, Gal. 2:16 KJV;
Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.
We put our faith in His perfect Sacrifice believing in the Son of God who died for us, and rose again having paid our sin debt in full once and for all.
It’s done, it’s finished, we believe on Him, and have His peace on that basis. Halleluia!
Comprehend the huge difference between having faith in Christ, and The Faith OF Christ.
Only then can we truly follow Christ in righteousness, free from sin, and be filled with His Spirit, to continue His ministry.
There’s no other reason to remain on Earth.
Love Catholics Enough to Tell Them The Truth
God hates the Roman Catholic Mass because it blasphemes the Sacrifice of Christ and traduces the Truth, deluding, and leading people into vile idolatry.
The whole Mass is a wicked idol, with the “Holy Eucharist” as its centrepiece.
Read John Knox’s sublime scriptural historic denunciation of the Catholic Mass Why The Mass is Idolatry.
