Catholic Rhetoric

Bluntly, I was what you would’ve called a back door Catholic. I was never confirmed as a Catholic but I did learn how to act like a Catholic, which also includes the greatest forms of hypocrisy. I took the Eucharist with the greatest respect for God and I studied the statues within the church as if they had a magnificent presence to them. I had family members that treated statues with more respect and dignity than they did real human beings. Finally, one day, I learned that those statues held a force that did not and I repeat, DID NOT belong to Jesus Christ! They are graven images and most Catholics will tell you that they only represent visuals and that is a lie! There is a demonic force to such graven images. It is most interesting that human graven images come in male and female form, such as the demons in Hell. The power behind a graven image cannot see, it cannot hear but it is a part of the underworld that is tolerated and adorned by the Catholic faith. The power behind a graven image is only as powerful as the beholder of the image, through sacrifice, an ungodly sacrifice, including denial for a purpose.

Many Catholic’s will tell you how Mother Mary (Jesus Christ earthly birth mother) was and that she is equivalent to Jesus Christ and again, that is a lie, causing the woman to find a sacrifice for her image. Abortion is a tool for graven images even though the Catholic’s will tell you differently, they will confess that abortion is a sin and then close one eye, such as a playing deck of cards. There are also male statues that have a specific purpose and think hard about Idolatry. A St. Joseph statue will sell your house if you bury him upside down on the property. Then there’s statues of Jude, Christopher, Peter, infant Prague, St. Teresa, and the list goes on, and they each have a specific purpose. Idolatry! It is written that graven images are detestable to God the creator and that can be found in Exodus 20:4, in the Holy Bible. Catholic’s due not use the Holy Bible as guidance, they use other texts that distort the word of God and lead many astray. I know, I was led astray until I came to Jesus Christ, one on one with no other distractions, and I gave my life to Jesus Christ at Calvary. No where in scripture does in mention Jesus Christ’s mother as an equivalent, she was blessed above all woman and she also conceived through man, a sinner, who also is a partaker in sin and hopefully redemption. There is no purgatory, there is rest in Hades but there is also torment in Hades, and this is found in the Holy Bible, Luke16:19-31. When a man dies, the demons scatter but Catholic humanity has permitted the demons a place of transport (Holy Bible, Matthew 8:28-43), including idolatry through graven images and the Holy Spirit is not present in such forms of filth. There are 66 books in the Holy Bible and it is written that man will distort God’s word, Revelation 22:18; Holy Bible.

Jesus Christ is the only way!

Holy Bible, Matthew 6:5-8

Prayer

5 “And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standingin the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. 6 But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. 7 And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. 8 Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.
