After I talked so much about Catholicism, I think I should finish it soon. Not only because you are already tired of me, but also, I need to start doing my thesis. After I tried to convince them and before they left and curse me, they will justify themselves again by usually asking this question. If Roman Catholic is not from God, it won't exist till now. But, I won't spare them.
Please, my friends tell me, 'Do you mean that Baal worshipper, Islam, Hindu, Budha, etc are from God since they are also exist till now?'
Bible says that Jesus is the only way to the Father (John 14:6) and no other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved (Act 4:12). Those who don't acknowledge Jesus as the Lord, Saviour must be not from God.
So, If Islam, Budha, Hindu, etc still exist, why Roman Catholic Church should not?
Jesus himself answered that question. He gave a parable about weeds and good seeds in Matthew 13:24-30
The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a man who sowed good seed in his field. While people were sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat and went away. When the crop came up and bore grain, the weeds appeared, too. The owner's servants came and said to him, ‘Master, you sowed good seed in your field, didn't you? Then where did these weeds come from?’ He told them, ‘An enemy did this!’ The servants said to him, ‘Then do you want us to go and pull them out?’ He said, ‘No, for if you pull out the weeds, you might pull out the wheat with them. Let both grow together until the harvest, and at harvest time I will tell the reapers, “Gather the weeds first and tie them in bundles for burning, but bring the wheat into my barn.”
You know the interpretation right? Jesus explained it on Matthew 13:36-43
It is said that Son of Man has sowed sons of the Kingdom in this world, and devil also has sowed his sons of the evil ones. They will live together, until their time has run out, until harvest time, the end of the world, when He will send his angels to harvest both of them, then He will separate between His children and devil's. Those who are not his will be thrown away to the fire.
So, my friends, do not wonder why there are so many false teaching, even though they are not from God. It happened because God allow it, to approve those who are faithful and really sought for His face, depend on Him only. Those who are lazy, ignorant, proud, self-righteous, will never understand about Bible. They will just make their own interpretation and teach publicly, many got deceived. This will continue until the end of the world.
1 Corinthians 11:19
For there must be also heresies among you, that they which are approved may be made manifest among you.
If I were you, I would not trust my eternity to somebody who I only met every sunday in the church, to those you called them, 'Prater, or Father, or anything you can name it'. Even he himself didn't remember your name, but you called him 'Father'. They maintain holy life, but based on the tradition, not Bible. They worship God in vain. They are deceiving themselves.
Do not put your trust about eternity on men, do not think that because he is a pastor, priest, saint, even pope, he can make sure your eternity. It is too risky, my friends. You must know the dark history of the church, right? They sold indulgence letter (now Mass Card), they sent people for Crusade, their Motto is 3G (Gold, Glory and Gospel). That was Roman Catholic Church, and because of that, God's name is blasphemied among the people. They would say that Christianity is no different with Islam, preaching the Gospel through wars, forces.
You need to know how to differenciate between those who have the Word of God inside them and those who are also blind teacher. Maybe they don't have any bad intention to anybody, but he speaks based on his own thought, he preach so many error and nobody can correct him, because both of them are blind, both of them will fall into pit. Bible is Word of God, my friends. Always compare what they teach or tell you to do with Bible. Have you ever done that, my friends?
- Have you ever asked why you should do this and that?
- Why you have to pray in front of statue, kneel down before sit down on your seat in the church, etc?
- Why when you said In the name of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit you need to touch part of your body, which look like inverted cross?
- Why you should go to priest to ask God's forgiveness?
- Why your prayers seem stuck on the ceiling above?
- Why worship God seem to be in vain?
- Why to come closer to God you need to live in celibacy?
My friends, if you aware of this fact. You should warn others. There are many heresies our there. Most of them use Bible as their base, but they only have half-truth. The thing that they understand clearly, they dig deep into it, they study more and more until they intoxicated onto it and never touch any other parts from the Bible until they are saturated on that subject and began to talk non-sense. They will tell people that they met angels, God asked them to marry virgins, little girl, or to pray through them, through the dead, doing celibacy, abstain from certain foods, worship idols, sacrifice their children, etc.
So, the answer: All the false teachings, false doctrines will last until the end of the world and it will increase even more. You need to open your Bible and make your awareness not dull. God bless you.
