This is How it Begins

[Protestant]

This is how it begins:

Satan subtly suggests you to make a small graven image of anything. Your choice. No harm done.

He then suggests you to make a small graven image of a ‘holy’ person of your choice. No big deal.

He then leads you to make a life-size graven image of that ‘holy’ person. Sounds like a plan.

He now commands you worship it. And why not? Until now nothing’s gone terribly wrong. You’re still breathing. You still make good money. You still have good health. So you must be doing something right!

By now you are primed and ready for the ultimate deception.

Satan demands you worship bread as your God.

He has appointed the Pope of Rome as his personal representative, his Vicar.

The Pontiff is Satan’s trusted surrogate, admired, highly honored and reverenced by all earth dwellers as the most holy religious man on Earth.

So if the Holy Father worships bread as God, it must be a good, holy and righteous way to worship God.

Roman Catholic protocol demands you kneel when worshipping the wafer.

10 Things You Might Be Doing Wrong at Mass

3. Genuflecting toward the altar

“I see this constantly! Genuflecting is the most pronounced gesture we employ at Mass, so it is reserved for the highest good — the Eucharist Himself. Where’s the Eucharist? In the Tabernacle. Some might be in this habit because the tabernacle is often directly behind the altar. Before getting in your pew, if and only IF the Tabernacle is visible, genuflect toward it. If it’s not in view, bow toward the altar. Now you know. And this applies outside of Mass too.”

All of which leads the Lord God Almighty to give you over to a reprobate mind, to do that which is not convenient:

This is how it ends:

Sometimes the pastor

1. Sometimes the collection plate.
2. Sometimes the American flag on the platform.
3. Two hymns and then the collection.

Every time I look at a bible I think of Jesus, even pray. Guess we throw those "graven images" in the fire first.

Legalism!

A Roman Catholic you are. For eternity. You'll see for yourself yet.

The Lord God warned His people of the abomination of worshipping bread as god.

He heweth him down cedars, and taketh the cypress and the oak, which he strengtheneth for himself among the trees of the forest: he planteth an ash, and the rain doth nourish it.

15 Then shall it be for a man to burn: for he will take thereof, and warm himself; yea, he kindleth it, and baketh bread; yea, he maketh a god, and worshippeth it; he maketh it a graven image, and falleth down thereto (Isaiah 44:14-15).

According to Cardinal Canizares Llovera, then Prefect of Divine Worship, “What does it mean to receive communion in the mouth? What does it mean to kneel before the Most Holy Sacrament? What does it mean to kneel during the consecration at Mass? It means adoration, it means recognizing the real presence of Jesus Christ in the Eucharist; it means respect and an attitude of faith of a man who prostrates before God because he knows that everything comes from Him, and we feel speechless, dumbfounded, before the wondrousness, his goodness, and his mercy.”

To continue worshipping bread as god despite the biblical admonitions against such an abomination is to exhibit one’s reprobation and judicial hardening before all the world.

And the residue thereof he maketh a god, even his graven image: he falleth down unto it, and worshippeth it, and prayeth unto it, and saith, Deliver me; for thou art my god.

18 They have not known nor understood: for he hath shut their eyes, that they cannot see; and their hearts, that they cannot understand (Isaiah 44:17:18).

Yes, some/many/most (take your pick) definitely do worship the green god.

Hank brings up a subject which I have dealt with in my expose of religious reprobates. They are frequently found on TV preaching a Prosperity Gospel.

However, what many do not consider is the hypocrisy of the richest man on Earth: the Pope of Rome, the absolute Monarch of Vatican City-State, the professed Supreme Leader of the Christian Church on Earth.

The worldly treasures residing in Vatican City are incalculable as to worth.

The money spent to build their gargantuan excessively pretentious cathedrals and basilicas boggles the mind, especially when considering they were built during the Middle Ages, a time of extreme poverty among the peasant masses.

Though Jesus had nowhere to lay His head, His alleged Vicar, the unholy Father, has no such concern.

Though Peter, the Pope’s alleged predecessor, had neither silver nor gold, the Papacy has never experienced such trifling shortfalls.

But let’s stay on topic.

The topic concerns the overt, in-your-face worship of graven images by professing followers of the Lord Jesus Christ.

The conclusion: Those who steadfastly maintain this abominable practice, who insist bread is their god, are on the fast track to perdition.

2nd conclusion: These are but further proofs that the unholy Father is the prophesied Antichrist and his church Mystery Babylon the Great.
