Many of you know I am a Christian. However not many of you know my stances on certain things. Many Christians today that are Protestant know of the growing number of preachers and believers that are becoming weary of the Catholic Church. However the main problem is the majority of Catholics are totally unaware that a good amount of Christians are noticing trends of the Occult in the Catholic Church that Jesus made mention of and described as preachers of the doctrines of demons. First let me show you how Gods works have been twisted in the past.
Numbers Chapter 21
8 And the LORD said unto Moses, Make thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a pole: and it shall come to pass, that every one that is bitten, when he looketh upon it, shall live.  9 And Moses made a serpent of brass, and put it upon a pole, and it came to pass, that if a serpent had bitten any man, when he beheld the serpent of brass, he lived. KJV

I think all Christians can agree that the Serphent on the Rod idea was sent by God and was good. However much like how the Christians the Catholic Church has labeled "Saints" things that are good can be misused for evil.

 2 Kings Chapter 8
1 Now it came to pass in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Hezekiah the son of Ahaz king of Judah began to reign.  2 Twenty and five years old was he when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem. His mother's name also was Abi, the daughter of Zachariah.  3 And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, according to all that David his father did.  4He 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.  5 He trusted in the LORD God of Israel; so that after him was none like him among all the kings of Judah, nor any that were before him.  6 For he clave to the LORD, and departed not from following him, but kept his commandments, which the LORD commanded Moses.  7 And the LORD was with him; and he prospered whithersoever he went forth: and he rebelled against the king of Assyria, and served him not. KJV
The bible says that even though the serpent on the pole was sent from God the people took it and made it into something wicked. They sacrificed to it, prayed to it and they worshiped it. In the bible it's made mention of exactly what the Apostles did when they were treated in the same respect as the snake.

Acts Chapter 14
8 And there sat a certain man at Lystra, impotent in his feet, being a cripple from his mother's womb, who never had walked:9 The same heard Paul speak: who stedfastly beholding him, and perceiving that he had faith to be healed,10 Said with a loud voice, Stand upright on thy feet. And he leaped and walked.11 And when the people saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices, saying in the speech of Lycaonia, The gods are come down to us in the likeness of men.12 And they called Barnabas, Jupiter; and Paul, Mercurius, because he was the chief speaker.13 Then the priest of Jupiter, which was before their city, brought oxen and garlands unto the gates, and would have done sacrifice with the people.14 Which when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard of, they rent their clothes, and ran in among the people, crying out,15 And saying, Sirs, why do ye these things? We also are men of like passions with you, and preach unto you that ye should turn from these vanities unto the living God, which made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all things that are therein:16 Who in times past suffered all nations to walk in their own ways.17 Nevertheless he left not himself without witness, in that he did good, and gave us rain from heaven, and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness.18 And with these sayings scarce restrained they the people, that they had not done sacrifice unto them.KJV
Doesn't what the people of Lystra did to the Apostles sound an awful lot like what the Catholic Church is doing with Saints? Telling people to pray to them, giving them rankings above what they desired. Also Catholic Churches are known for having statues of the Saints which is fine and dandy when not used to pray to. By praying in front of a Statue of a saint to better reach the saints or that one you are saying that spot has special powers. Thus you are saying that Statue has special powers. Does that not sound like an Idol? A statue made by the hands of men of a man does not have any special powers. If you say then I know that. Then why do Catholics pray to and by them.

I mentioned earlier about The Catholic Church taking on an image that the bible calls preachers of the doctrines of Demons. Why is it that Catholic Leaders are not allowed to Marry? The bible mentions this very thing.

Timothy Chapter 4
1 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;3 Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.4 For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:5 For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.6 If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrine, whereunto thou hast attained.


Another thing I would like to mention is how the Catholic Church has members call the staff and leaders "Father". While this may seem innocent enough the bible mentions this as well.

Matthew 23:8-9 But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren. And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven. - KJV


If you don't understand the full impact of what the bible says in said verses then let me explain. Father or Rabi is a term God wants us to use to refer to him or God. Which means since God is saying Father or Rabi means God, that when they are having you refer to them as Father or Rabi they are requiring you to call them God. The first commandment is "I am the Lord Thy God thou shalt have no other Gods before me." In other words to follow the rules in Catholic Churches you must break the first commandment. Whether you know it or not either way breaking a commandment is a sin. Knowingly and purposely sinning after repentance is wicked and dangerous.
If you wish to comment hate messages just know God is watching and I will be watching this also. I will hide any hate comments. Discussion is fine and encouraged including from both sides. However name calling, hate speach, blasphemy, and condemnation will be hidden. No matter which view point it comes from.

God Bless You.

The word translated "Rabbi," means Master. Hebrews used the term to refer to their teachers, as in "honorable teacher." In Japanese martial arts, the word used is "sensei," honorable master. They called Jesus "Rabbi," because he was teaching and discipling followers.
Matthew 23:8 says, "Do not be called Rabbi (honorable master), because One is your Master, even Christ."
It's called humility.
