Christianity EtcRe: Why Do Catholics Pray With The Rosary, And Bow To Mary's Statue? by brocab:
So you are a proud Catholic-attending other churches, this must confuse you deeply, you wouldn't know who is speaking the truth, and who is not speaking the truth-this must be the reason why you don't know any truth yourself.
What a joke.
emmanuelex1:
Personally I am a proud Catholic but still I attend other churches provided they do worship God not satan. Please the word of God is not physics or Biology or Chemistry or a news paper or history novel, you need Jesus Christ guidance to understand it. Stop insulting Churches just becos they are corrupt rather pray for the church you think is corrupt. Who knows if you are even holy?

Keep on laughing-who cares-mocking me-is mocking the Lord, you would like a name of a Church-Hmmm-how about AOG or COC. are they good names, and which of the two do I fellowship at, Hmmm none.
But which of the two did I fellowship at in the past-both, and the many more I found suited at the time.
emmanuelex1:
Loooool I can not stop laughing, so you are a watch man, no wonder you are shy of mentioning the name of your church. Please tell me the full name of your church.

I see you can't understand pure English-because I don't go to Church now-it doesn't mean I have never been inside a Church?
Where else was I saved-giving my life to Jesus.

You don't like me rubbishing the Catholic Church, even if their is any truth about your beliefs-but you rubbish me with your bad language-did you learn bad language from your Church-or is this something you have been hiding away from the crowd? So on Sundays you become a saint, and the rest of the week you become yourself, an abuser of Satan once again.
Is this the identity description I have retrieved from a true blue Catholic?
emmanuelex1:
You are a confused clown, what is the meaning of I do not go to church you said? who asking if you if you never being to church> you blood liar you said you do not go to church,please do you go to mosque?
Christianity EtcRe: Why Do Catholics Pray With The Rosary, And Bow To Mary's Statue? by brocab:
Lets not forget I was once a Catholic too-but the problem is-I could never understand it, only because they didn't follow the bible, because they have their own ways in dealing with life.
No one taught the bible-and the priest didn't explain the Word of God, the way it's written-but they had their own method how they think it should sound.
But it wasn't correct, I became a Born again believer-and later I found I could read the bible first hand, without listening to someone else-reading it from a pulpit.
The Catholic's have their own views who God is-it isn't the God of the bible-praying the Rosaries and bowing down to statues-and thanking Mary-for her services-isn't what the bible directs us to know.
This is why, you need to stop listening to others and find the truth for yourself-pick up your bible, clean the dust of it, and read it, you won't find-the Rosaries-nor purgatory, nor praying to Mary and the dead saints written in the bible.
This isn't mocking your beliefs, but this is the truth, you won't find any lies written in the bible, you won't find any lies your priest have been telling you.

You are making no sense at all-I said I don't go to Church-this doesn't mean I have never been to a Church?
Of course I gave my life to Jesus somewhere?
emmanuelex1:
I taught you said you do not go to church, now you say when it comes to Pentecostal, I will take it that you are ashamed of your church, soorryyooo. You know nothing about Catholicism, trust me when I say so. There are good and bad people in the catholic church just like eslewhere but trust me Bro you are ignorant of the practices of Catholics. I thank God you are not a muslim or rather I thank God your parents were christians becos if you were to be a muslim you must have being a sucide bomber

Praying I do, and I am also a watchmen, spreading the word around-about corrupt Churches, so the people may hear.
Staying quite isn't my speciality-letting people know-don't go down that road, or this road, could save them from hell fire.
Warning them to stick with the bible-is directing them in the right direction.
Don't you think?

This isn't accusing people in direct-you claim you are Catholic-and yet you haven't studied the in's and out's with your own beliefs, which I have, when it comes to the Pentecostal's-I have studied and seen first hand-about many of the corrupt attitudes the Church had given out.
When knowing about anything, one must study all truth, to separated it from the lies people claim-and as sad as it is, Churches have a lot of explaining to do when judgement day arrives.
If you aren't sure about anything-go straight to the source to find what you are looking for-the bible is flooded with information about everything.
Why sit in your Church and listen to everybody else-He/She may not give you the right answers-where most Churches don't-this is why we have the bible to teach us all things, and if you aren't sure-it's best to ask God-He never lies-so He will be your best shot, to receive any information about Him. Sometimes God leads us to the net-their are Christians everywhere-writing about all sorts of information.

But if your heart isn't into it-and you are happy to believe in the little information you have, then don't get yourself all up tight when someone like myself knows things about your Church-and wants to share the good news to others, and bad news to you.
The differences between you and I is, I don't need to sit in front of a pastor-to find out the truth-it's written before my eye's-and the Holy Spirit leads me in all things.
To find out any truth-it is written somewhere, you may not like what you read-but it's out there, but if you sat down and studied about your beliefs, you will find most Churches that exist today have some sort of corruption-that's leading, not only themselves-but other believers into Hell fire.
The bible is the key to freedom-the bible holds the secrets and the power of God's Word, Jesus promises us He will never leave us-and these are His Words for those who truly believe, in Word, and in Truth.

None-I don't attend any Church-but it doesn't stop me from studying the bible.
Churches these days a corrupt, and many of them are teaching about prosperity-collecting money from the poor-and spending it for their own pleasures.
Pentecostal Churches aren't any different to the Catholic Church when using their own doctrines-to deceive God's people.
Your Church-is well and truly involved in collecting finances, just as proud as any other Church this exist, Monies without God are just evil.
Who stands above all other Churches the Roman Catholic Church stands above-with its riches flooding Rome the Vatican.

Your ignorance knows no bound, saying catholic church is a cult is like saying Christianity is a cult. I just wonder what you will tell your kids well it is not not business. Can you please tell me the name of church, are you scared or ashamed of telling me the business enterprise you attend?
Christianity EtcRe: Why Do Catholics Pray With The Rosary, And Bow To Mary's Statue? by brocab: 3:22am On Jul 11, 2017
You don't seem to know the differences what is a cult-and what isn't a cult.
The Catholic Church doesn't obey the Word of God fully-the Catholic Church has their own beliefs how the bible should sound.
The Catholic Church had added-and removed scriptures.
Let us try Purgatory-a place where you can buy your love ones out, allowing them to go to heaven to be with the Lord-this lie is used within the Catholic Church, this place purgatory isn't written in the bible-how about the Rosaries, this is used to pray to Mary? Building images is another to remind Catholic's God exist, and you use your mediators such as Mary and the dead saints-to save you, the bible doesn't teach any of these things the Catholic's believe-these are taught by men-not God.
Any religion that makes images {idols} to remind them that a god exist-and not following the truth the Word of God, these are called cults, God lives in the heart of the living, He isn't the God of the dead.
Most Catholic's don't know the truth-because most don't have the Spirit of God, to know anything about anything.
This is why you are trying to push me to ask a priest-another one who He/She are like back in the days of the Pharisees, they didn't know anything either.

Again what can a priest teach me, what the bible can't teach me? "Nothing"
This is your problem-and this is where you go wrong in learning the scriptures yourself, you would rather ask the priest to give you all the answers.
This is why the bible was written-when we need the answers-we pray to God for the answers needed.
Priest and pastors can be wrong-but the bible can never be wrong-the bible is God's Word.
emmanuelex1:
Please need prayers go meet a Catholic priest to help you out. From your choice of words I still think you are ignorant of the practices of Catholics. I am sorry but you are still very ignorant of what you are saying. The funniest part is that even in Sunday services you do not see Catholics reciting the Holy Rosary, nevertheless the there are different programs in Catholicism which include Children ministry( bible teachings), Charismatic program(praying section, Block Rosary(Teaching of Jesus and Mary), Holy communion, confirmation program etc. See I can not teach you everything online.You can remain ignorant if you want or best meet a good Catholic to teach properly.

Really it doesn't matter who came to Africa first-what matters which ones delivered the truth of Christ.
What matters are the Africans saved-did God send in the pioneers to bring in His message, these are the answers I would be searching for-not some religious cult like the Catholic Church who claim to know Christ, bringing with them another message-that doesn't belong to any bible knowledge, but themselves and their religion.

See the problem is, this forum teaches us, about scripture and everything the bible has to offer-I have learnt the bible in way's I never understood it before-but this forum is a door opening for all to understand the truth.
I have learnt the differences between different religions, and cults, that really wakes a man up-the computer is full of information-about the differences between what's false and what is truth.
I have found the Catholic's believe they have all the answers-they believe the bible began with them-but is this true?
After studying through time-the answer to this question is false, no the bible didn't start with the Catholic's first, "Matter of fact the Catholic's have their own view that doesn't concern the bible at all.
Mary's name stands before the Catholic Church-her name is above all other names-within the Godhead.
Bible knowledge have a different view about Mary, who she is, and what role she played, Mary was blessed by God to give birth to Jesus-but she is still human-and she believed in the Word of God-she needed a savour-just like we all do-the bible strictly tells us who we bow down too and who we worship-"And Mary's name isn't mentioned.
But still the Catholic Church disagrees with this bible knowledge.
Every cult, every religion that claims to know Christ-and doesn't obey His Word fully-are mouths without a voice.

Your problem rest with you, you must think you are God. Get behind me. I believe in God and not what you understand.

Changing the bible-disobeying the commandments of God-making images is a start.
You shall not have any other god's before Me.
You shall not make for yourself carved images-any likeness of anything that is in Heaven above, or that is in Earth beneath, or that is in the water under the Earth.
You shall not bow down to them nor serve them.


"Question" Did the Catholic Church give us the bible, at the beginning?
The "Catholic's" say yes-but the "Truth" say's no.

Lets go thought the list-to see if the bible was first written by the Catholic Church, as emmanuelex1 claims it to be?
{1} Why does it condemn clerical dress? {Matthew 23:5-6}
{2} Why does it teach the adoration of Mary? {Luke 11:27-28}
{3} Why does it show that all Christians are priest? {1 peter 2:5,9}
{4} Why does it condemn the observance of special days? {Galatians 4:9-11}
{5} Why does it teach that all Christians are Saints?{Corinthians 1:2}
{6} Why does it condemn the making and adoration of images? {Exodus 20:4-5}
{7} Why does it teach that Baptism is immersion instead of pouring? {Colossians 2:12}
{8} Why does it forbid us to address religious leaders as "father"? {Matthew 23:9}
{9} Why does it teach that Christ is the only foundation, and not the apostle Peter? {2 Corinthians 3:11}
{10} Why does it teach that their is one mediator instead of many? {1 Timothy 2:5}
{11} Why does it teach a Bishop must be a married man? {1 Timothy 3-2,4-5}
{12} Why is it opposed to the primacy of Peter? {Luke 22:24-27}
{13} Why does it oppose the idea of purgatory? {Luke 16:26}
{14} Why is it completely silent about infant baptism, instrumental music in worship, indulgence, confession to priest, the Rosaries, the Mass, and many other things in the Catholic Church.

Does this mean emmanuelex1 is mistaken where the bible actually come from-does the Catholic Church actually follow the bible, to it's full-or lets say parts of it-that suits the Catholic Church.
emmanuelex1:
Change Bible scriptures? who told you that? Who compiled the first Bible? Catholicism and Pentecostalism who is older? You must have forgotten the whites brought Christianity to Africa? We you need wisdom becos you talk no sense..

Pray to what god? Your god who's made of stone and clay-a god through the Rosaries, is this your god-everyone can see?
Is this the god you see on judgement day?
Or is there another God, a God in Spirit-that no-one had seen at anytime.
emmanuelex1:
You lack wisdom pray for God to give some. If you choose to be ignorant that is headache. I will answer for myself on judgement day while you answer for yourself. God knows those who truly worship him.
Christianity EtcRe: Why Do Catholics Pray With The Rosary, And Bow To Mary's Statue? by brocab: 12:51am On Jul 10, 2017
If you truly worship God-then why does your religion swap and change bible scriptures?
Why take God's Word out of the bible, and why build images of statues-the rosaries and other means to remind you God is there?
If God was truly in your Heart-then of course, you wouldn't need to find other ways to remind you God exist?
So the truth is-building idols "of means to know a god-obviously isn't the same God in the Bible.

You are not listening to scripture-nor are you listening to reason-another so called Catholic bites the dust.
As I had said before-God did choose my Sister-Mary the Mother of Jesus, is my Sister in Christ
Jesus said: {Matthew 12:50} For whoever does the will of My Father in Heaven is My Brother, Sister and Mother-and because I had chosen to become a born again believer in Christ, I have decided to do the will of God-preaching His Word across the nations, As Jesus said those who do the will of His Father in Heaven are His Brother Mother Sister-then this would make me a Brother in Christ.

I can do what I please-while you keep on writing-I will keep on answering-stop-and I will continual to another-unbelieving Catholic, the problem is-you say' you prefer I should leave the Catholic's alone, if you actually knew what the Word of God had to say-you would have changed your mind, about bible knowledge, but because you haven't the slightest idea-what's written about bible knowledge, you are trying so hard to lie against me-twisting my words-trying to make a mockery out from me, But deep down God knows your witchcraft.
SO CALLED CHRISTIAN .

Christianity EtcRe: Why Do Catholics Pray With The Rosary, And Bow To Mary's Statue? by brocab:
No-I was one of the lucky ones-maybe because I was to young-so we can see the priest did have their own speciality their own to choose from to molest-but I do remember I was up for sale-I was ready to be sold to a Catholic family-but for some reason they didn't make their offer, My Ma knew where we were and she managed to take us on a little holiday-under welfare's control, instead of returning back we ended up running for years.
But many thousands were molested-everyone would believe the Church was there to support broken families etc" back behind it all, that story was just a front page fairy tale story, Children were taking away from their love ones-trapped under the authority of the Government-and the Church.
Many thousands were sex slaves-while us younger ones were ready to be sold.
The lies the authorities had told the world, the Children and parents believed these institutions were for the safety of their Children.

The fact is-millions around the world, were forced out of their homes, by the authorities-confused and frighten-lost and trapped behind a system that the Government had complete control over each child, we were brainwashed to believe our parents no-longer existed.
We were now slaves to a system-we children were forced to become Government property under the state-ward act under the Constitutional law. We were stolen children "no-one wanted.
Children were force under the acts of slavery-no-one wanted us-without paying the price-Black white everything though the Church every child had a price.
Thousands around the world-died in action-died trying to survive-died because they were victims of homosexuality, prostitution-before God we were beating-slowly until we were broken. And this little black duck kept on running.
Many cases-of sexual child abuse-comes with a price, Children picked and sold, from the outside to support Children to become victims to men and women on the outside-who themselves have that same desire the Church carries.
The Vatican not agreeing to marriage-and not having sex of any kind-is a vow taken between God and themselves.
But it isn't a vow taken with Children Is it?

Ubenedictus:

If you have read my posts here you would have known that I have no problem agreeing that for about 2000yrs men and women of God have committed horrible crimes while hiding behind the church. There is a difference between a "a man or woman of the cloth" committing sin and the church.

Catholicism doesn't teach people to molest children or steal children or participate in a government policy that steals children. The church didn't steal any child nor did it molest any child in fact such actions are considered sinful and prohibited for Catholics and yet we have unfortunate, tragic cases where people who should know better involve themselves in such cases.


If you were molested then I sympathize with you and I advise you to take legal action to make sure the perpetrators get prison term.
Christianity EtcRe: Why Do Catholics Pray With The Rosary, And Bow To Mary's Statue? by brocab:
I had asked you a question-and you refuse to answer it-only because you haven't a clue how to answer it.
No-one is denying Mary is the Mother of Jesus-this only comes from you, not wanting to accept the scriptures.
I also have Blood Brothers Sisters and Mother-as I dedicated my life to Christ-I left them behind, and became a new creature in Christ-I accepted my new Brothers my new Sisters and Mother, because I made my choice to live for Christ.
{Matthew 12:50} For whoever does the will of My Father is My Brother Sister and My Mother.
I am not speaking up for the dead Saints-nor am I willing to speak up for your pagan beliefs.
I can only speak up-for the life I have with Christ-I can speak up for my Brothers, my Sisters and Mother, true Christians are risking their lives daily to preach the gospel about Christ nation wide.
These are believers who made their decision to become Born again Christians-these are my Brothers Sisters and Mother, these are the ones who will stand for God-and Him only, we will serve.
If you really wanted to truly believe-there's nothing stopping you, to make a right positive decision-giving your life totally over to Christ and become a Born again Christian.
{ John 3:3} Jesus replied" and said unto them, Verity Verity" Except a man be Born again, he can-not enter into the kingdom of God.
And you can keep your Homosexual remarks to yourself. No-one is interested with any fantasy's you may have, this is the kind of talk that runs with the Catholic Church, Priest and Nuns having sex with young boys.

You ability see that fact that Mary is the only mother of Jesus is your headache, I know who I worship and served and I am proud to say I served God almighty.

This is simple-I am also found with the Holy Spirit, it's the Spirit of God who teachers me the Word of God.
It show's you don't read anything I have written-I said if I had a girl friend in Christ. she is my sister in Christ, just like Mary-she needed a saviour too.

Jesus said, those who do the will of God-are my Brothers Mother and Sister. {Matthew 12:50}
And Mary did the will of God-Just like I am doing-I am also sharing the gospel-Just like the apostles done, all shared the Word of God.
My blood Sister-became a Mother-but she is still my Sister-who is now with the lord.
None of which you have written can prove Mary in Christ isn't my sister? She's the Mother of Jesus-but she is also human-she was born into sin-like me, and like you.
Becoming a believer in Christ we are all blessed-Mary believed God-just like we do too, I walk-knowing I am blessed in Christ.

Having a bit of Bible knowledge shouldn't upset you-but strengthen you, this is the power the Word has-it builds you up-with wisdom and knowledge, "So why are you working yourself up, feeling angry every time I write the scriptures.
You will never understand the bible until you are Spirit filled, this is what most Catholic's fail to recognise, the power of God.
Every scripture-that is written in bible knowledge-explains why it is important to become a believer-it has nothing to do with Church buildings, the body of Christ-is the Church, Spirit filled believers, that believes in Christ.
Many will come in His name, and claim they know Christ, and deceive many, We will know them by their fruit. if you aren't.

If my girl friend is in Christ-she is my sister, just like Mary, she is my sister in Christ.

You are confused"and you are very good in mis-interpreting what you want to believe, Mary was Chosen to conceive Jesus, while your sister Mary in Christ, probably your girl friend was not chosen to conceive Jesus. This is the big difference.

{Jeremiah 17:9, 1 John 3:20} The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure, who can understand it.
Jesus said if your heart deceives you-God won't deceive you.
{Matthew 15:18-19} Meaning out of the heart comes evil thoughts. And everything that comes out of a mans mouth comes out of the heart.
Don't rely on your heart. Your heart is already deceiving you, by their fruit we will know them.

Really that is what you pastor told you? You are just a 21th Centrury Clown to say that. You are just too Ignorant. What do you think you know about the Bible and Christianity? We Catholics worship God in Heaven and honor Mary. If you can tell your friends, your father, your mother, your relatives to pray for you then what is wrong in Catholics telling Mary and Saints to pray for them. Please you too ignorant for my liking. Just keep wasting your time or tell your pastor to write to the for proper explanation. God knows every ones' Heart.

Mary is my sister in Christ, she was chosen by God in another era-this doesn't mean she isn't my sister-Jesus said those who hear the Word of God and practices it-are My brothers, Mother and Sister.
Still you prefer the dead to pray for you-you should ask the living to pray for you-you will have a much better result.
emmanuelex1:
You lack simple wisdom even while quoting so much verses, why was Mary chosen? why was it not your sister, girl friend, mum, grand mother, or your Pastors' wife? Please leave Catholics alone, we want to honor Mary and worship God. Even in Islam Mary is also recognize. If you can beg your Pastor, mother, friends, relatives to pray for you, what is then wrong in Catholics asking Mary or Saints to pray for them? Keep wasting your time spreading propaganda.

My Pastor isn't my sauce of information, I can understand the problem with you Catholic's when anything that is in need, or to be answered, you ask the priest-this is why the bible was written, if we need answers we just need to go straight to God's Word.
When we ask our Mother or family or friends in this case to pray for us-we make sure they are alive and well-we don't ask the dead to pray.
In Jesus's name-we are the living-Jesus isn't the God of the dead, but the living. {Mark 12:27, Luke 20:38}

{Romans 12:10} Be devoted to one another in Love, Honor one another above yourselves.
We believers know your Pope doesn't teach you the Word of God-rather he speaks of a different doctrine that doesn't line up with the truth.
It's the Spirit of the Lord, who leads His people to suites like this, to learn all truth, about Him.
Mary recognised that she needed a saviour, the bible never say's that Mary was anyone, but an ordinary human whom God chose to use in a extraordinary way.
Yes Mary was a righteous woman, and favored {Grace} by God.
{Luke 1:27-28} At the same time, Mary was a sinful human being who needed Jesus Christ, as her saviour, "just like everybody else. {Ecclesiastes 7:20, Romans 3:23, 6:23, 1 John 1:8}
Mary is only honored and glorified, only because the Catholic's are taught Mary's a virgin, Mary did not have an Immaculate conception, the bible doesn't say Mary's birth was anything, but a normal human birth.
Mary was a Virgin when she gave birth to Jesus {Luke 1:34-38} But the idea of the perpetual Virginity of Mary is unbiblical. {Matthew 1:25} Speaking of Joseph, he had no union with Mary, until she gave birth to Jesus.
The Word clearly states that Joseph and Mary did have sexual union after Jesus was born-Jesus had four half brothers, and also He had half Sisters {Matthew 13:55-56}
The problem is-if we knew the Pope was preaching the truth in the first place-and the Catholic's knew the Word of God, as it stands-we wouldn't be wasting our precious time with you.

Catholics worship God, believe in the Holy Trinity, and honor Mary. lol you are so funny if you think you can can convince Catholics. Try harder even if you use voodoo you can not convince Catholics because we will see you as being ignorant. Stop wasting your time or keeping wasting it. it is your choice

We understand alright-we understand the Catholic's are lost-just as the world is lost, without God
emmanuelex1:
Oh we do not read Bible too? I never knew that as a Catholic. My friend keeping wasting your precious time. Tell your Pastor, Overseer or Business manager to write a letter of invitation to the Pope, whose know it may help your Case to understand very well.

I thought you may like it, but the problem is it's true, the Pope can't save you, nor can he change the Word of God.
He's just their for you Catholic's to listen to his doctrines, rather than read the bible yourselves.
I already got what I wanted, I have Jesus, He is my mediator and savour.
He is also my tool-to share His Word to people like you, people who think they know Him-but they don't.
emmanuelex1:
You are very funny that you do not know what you want, I felt you needed explanation so I suggested the Pope to explain Catholicism to you and your pastor.
