Since the days of the apostles, the Catholic Church has consistently condemned the sin of idolatry. The early Church Fathers warn against this sin, and Church councils also dealt with the issue.
The Second Council of Nicaea (787), which dealt largely with the question of the religious use of images and icons, said, “[T]he one who redeemed us from the darkness of idolatrous insanity, Christ our God, when he took for his bride his holy Catholic Church . . . promised he would guard her and assured his holy disciples saying, ‘I am with you every day until the consummation of this age.’ . . . To this gracious offer some people paid no attention; being hoodwinked by the treacherous foe they abandoned the true line of reasoning . . . and they failed to distinguish the holy from the profane, asserting that the icons of our Lord and of his saints were no different from the wooden images of satanic idols.”
The Catechism of the Council of Trent (1566) taught that idolatry is committed “by worshipping idols and images as God, or believing that they possess any divinity or virtue entitling them to our worship, by praying to, or reposing confidence in them” (374).
“Idolatry is a perversion of man’s innate religious sense. An idolater is someone who ‘transfers his indestructible notion of God to anything other than God’” (CCC 2114).
The Church absolutely recognizes and condemns the sin of idolatry. What anti-Catholics fail to recognize is the distinction between thinking a piece of stone or plaster is a god and desiring to visually remember Christ and the saints in heaven by making statues in their honor. The making and use of religious statues is a thoroughly biblical practice. Anyone who says otherwise doesn’t know his Bible.

You better quit ignorance now u still have time. Go and take ur bible and read and discover for yourself how Christianity started and stop believing myths you 're feeding on.
First of all Jesus is the founder of Christianity.
2. The first church was in Jerusalem, where Jesus told them to tary until they were imbued with the Holy Ghost.
3. When Peter converted the largest crowd under the influence of the Holy Ghost on the Pentecost day, the venue was not Rome. Through out Peter's ministry he never visited rome so where on earth are u getting this ur church history?

Read history very well. The early apostles(many of them) were taken to rome and they died there. Peter died in rome etc

So Mary is his saviour?

Roman catholics are not Christians. They are Roman images worshipping heretics.





This logic lies the error of ROMAN CATHOLICISM.

Christ my King is the foundation of Christianity.
Jesus Christ is the WAY, the TRUTH and LIFE.
No one come to the Father EXCEPT THROUGH HIM
John 14:6

So you can see that it is the Roman Catholics that have denied Jesus.
Any man, or group that claim to have another way to God the Father other than through our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ has denied the faith.


Folks, please read your Bible.


Everything Catholics do is biblical.

The fact that you don't believe in it doesn't make it a lie. I mean, atheists would laugh at you for saying there was a flood or that a man walked on water, died and resurrected. But you believe these things to be true. So leave Catholics with their truths.

It's so simple.

God Said To Make Them
People who oppose religious statuary forget about the many passages where the Lord commands the making of statues. For example: “And you shall make two cherubim of gold [i.e., two gold statues of angels]; of hammered work shall you make them, on the two ends of the mercy seat. Make one cherub on the one end, and one cherub on the other end; of one piece of the mercy seat shall you make the cherubim on its two ends. The cherubim shall spread out their wings above, overshadowing the mercy seat with their wings, their faces one to another; toward the mercy seat shall the faces of the cherubim be” (Ex. 25:18–20).
David gave Solomon the plan “for the altar of incense made of refined gold, and its weight; also his plan for the golden chariot of the cherubim that spread their wings and covered the ark of the covenant of the Lord. All this he made clear by the writing of the hand of the Lord concerning it all, all the work to be done according to the plan” (1 Chr. 28:18–19). David’s plan for the temple, which the biblical author tells us was “by the writing of the hand of the Lord concerning it all,” included statues of angels.
Similarly Ezekiel 41:17–18 describes graven (carved) images in the idealized temple he was shown in a vision, for he writes, “On the walls round about in the inner room and [on] the nave were carved likenesses of cherubim.”
The Religious Uses of Images
During a plague of serpents sent to punish the Israelites during the exodus, God told Moses to “make [a statue of] a fiery serpent, and set it on a pole; and every one who is bitten, when he sees it shall live. So Moses made a bronze serpent, and set it on a pole; and if a serpent bit any man, he would look at the bronze serpent and live” (Num. 21:8–9).
One had to look at the bronze statue of the serpent to be healed, which shows that statues could be used ritually, not merely as religious decorations.
Catholics use statues, paintings, and other artistic devices to recall the person or thing depicted. Just as it helps to remember one’s mother by looking at her photograph, so it helps to recall the example of the saints by looking at pictures of them. Catholics also use statues as teaching tools. In the early Church they were especially useful for the instruction of the illiterate. Many Protestants have pictures of Jesus and other Bible pictures in Sunday school for teaching children. Catholics also use statues to commemorate certain people and events, much as Protestant churches have three-dimensional nativity scenes at Christmas.

Catholics use d BIBLE
THEY HAVE PRAYER BOOKS JUST LIKE ANY ODA PRAYER

CATHOLICS DONT WORHIP SAINTS BUT TEACH TO PEOPLE EMULATE THE LIFE OF THIS SAINTS

The old covenant(Law of sin unto death) you all are making reference to had been overwritten by the new covenant(Covenant of Grace) established through the death and resurrection of Jesus(Yehoshua al-meshiach). So what's the need in engaging in practices that are no longer relevant? No longer relevant in the sense that, Jesus Christ had paid the ultimate sacrifice( propitiation) for our sins and ended the legal rights of Satan to bring accusations to God for which we should pay the divine penalty as such those things we ought to do(according to the 663 statutes and ordinances of Jewish Law) in order to be considered worthy before God were abolished in effect thru the death and resurrection of Christ. You guys are rendering all that Christ did for us on the cross in vain, with all these so-called religious rites, confession of sins, Mary worship bla, bla, bla.

[s] May God forgive you for having the guts to accuse and lay false accusations against his church openly. You forget that most of these money based churches sprouting their heads up today are actually from the catholic church. Its pathetic that they have chosen to protest against their head. It reminds me of how Absalom rebelled against David. I just wish God will open your eyes
To see the truth. If there is anything I'm proud of this so called "cult" is that it does not try to deviate from the true doctrines of christianity in order to achieve their selfish needs. Our priests live a humble life but what about your pastors?squandering themselves in material things acting nothing like Jesus. Many of them are already candidates of hell but yet they encourage their members to condemn others. I won't type much,my battery is low. But before I go,I want you to take a good look at your life,that of your church and compare them with the Catholics and then the life of Jesus and you are bound to see a huge difference.

Call them what they are, Roman catholics. Calling them catholics distorts their true identity.

Roman Catholics. Because the HQ was originally at Rome. And it differentiates them from other Catholics such as the Polish Catholics, Eastern Catholics and others. It has very little or nothing to do with the Roman empire and its practices.

Roman Catholicism is a form of Orthodox Christianity, although it is rarely called such so as not to mistake it with Orthodox Christianity, which is a branch on its own.

You should read up more on the history of the church so you don't sound like a schmuck online.

I have two questions for you before I respond to your response!
1. What is the reason for motification?
2. Is spiritual exercise the same as bodily motification?
3. Who does motification satisy? Men or God?
4. If Jesus is our model and He did not practice bodily motification on Himself, why should we do it?
1. one of its aim is to subject d flesh to d spirit.
2. yes just as the tire is part of a car, so is mortification part of spiritual exercise.
3. God, a body under d spirit glorify God.
4. yes, Jesus fasted 4 40 days.

lmao are you talking about the corrupted CAN organisation that has completely lost it ways.. the organization was created by the Catholic church in the first place.. its now more of a political organization than a christian one.
catholics dont have there own scriptures there a other passages found in the later years just as each book was compiled to form the 66, there were other lost books which were later found and added..
Catholicism replaced Christ as the ONLY salvation of man with Mary worship. They make images of her and refer to her as the 'Queen of Heaven'. And we know in the old testament that name was ascribed to a pagan deity. So what do you want to tell me again that Catholicism is not repackaged paganism?

well according to your definition "A cult is totalitarian in nature and form(people's way of life are tightly-knitted around the rules and regulations, codes of conduct and what have you. Consequences of flouting or showing a total disregard of their rules and regulations come with a punishment)"
Christians ways of life should emulate Jesus Christ (people's way of life are tightly-knitted around the rules and regulations, codes of conduct) and u if u sin you are liable to goto Hell (Consequences of flouting or showing a total disregard of their rules and regulations come with a punishment)

as u can see you just proved my point, just because there are some bad cult groups doesnt mean the word cultism applies to something evil..
here is the definition according to Google (a system of religious veneration and devotion directed towards a particular figure or object). doesnt that sound like all religions ?
As you know, all belief systems around the world that we called religion is founded by a central figure, whose life patterns are modelled by the followers. When Jesus was here on earth, did he establish RELIGION? Religion is just man's invention. God did not institute Religion but man did
Infact, Christianity was not supposed to be tagged a RELIGION, but for the sake of records it was lumped among the thousands of false belief system we have today.

Ubenedictus:
Jesus' death is the very reason christian practice mortification (puting to death the desires of the flesh and training the spirit man) by grace! We fast also to put the flesh under the domination of the spirit.



The death of Jesus Christ can't be the reason for rollback your church practicing bodily mortification. Everything churdtians do must either be expressly commanded or commended by the scripture.


When Jesus Christ went into fasting , the Bible was very clear about what he did. All the fathers of the faith in the scripture that fasted didn't go into mortification . The Scripture kept recordsmof cities that went to fasting and not one of the people embarked on mortification of their bodies. It was all about food and water abstinence and works of charity.


When jeus told the disciples that this kind goes not out except by fasting and prayer, he was referring to what he had already done not this your notification.


This man sleeping on hard surface for the sins of the world is only exhibiting his ignorance of the great commision to every one everywhere to go preach the gospel of Christ to the entire world. There is no scriptural precedent for his action and he can't possible be doing it for the world for the gospel says Jesus came so that WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH I him would be saved and not perish


It is whosoever believeth. He ought to have gone out to get men to believe rather than be sleeping on iron bed and using stones for pillows. He impresses no one in heaven with his ignorance

Fasting itself is mortification, placing ashes on the head, etc is an expression of horor and outrage and repentance for sins, ascetic practices like feeding solely on honey and locust, wearing animal skin etc like John the baptist did also falls under mortification.

David also lay on the ground to plead for his ill child, along with fasting and sack clothes, all that stuff falls under mortification.

You sounded some valid points. Now we can get started. I wanted to get your definition of mortification clearly before knowing how to rwsponse. To many Catholics, it includes mutilating your body whereas it is subjecting your desires to focus and be on the same page with God. Mortification should not be mutilation.
However, mortification/spiritual exercise is not for God's benefits but for our benefit. He is God by Himself. Mortification or not, our worship or not, He doesn't diminish in personality.
My initial argument about mortification was sparked by the fact that the late founder of block rosary slept on iron bed and block pillow because of the sin of the world. Sir, God is not appeased by that. He has given us just one solution, Jesus. Perfection is not by the flesh Galatians 3:3.

Ahhh,but you forget to mention the fact that Jesus said he had come not to abolish the law but to fulfil it,thus the old testament.
This issue of trying to throw away the doctrines of the old testament is totally invalid of the Christians. It is from the old testament that we get the 10 commandments. So just because the commandments are in the old testament,we should abolish them? Jesus actually made reFerence to the old testament in some cases. He only shunned some of them because they wouldn't decipt us as true christians.

How do you explain your honour when the longest time a catholic spends in prayer is devoted to praying to Mary. The only official litany of praise and adoration of the church is for Mary and you carry out acts of worship like kneeling in front of status of her in church.

Can you do all the above and still call it honour?


Miarose:
The church agrees that no one comes to the Father except through JESUS. Catholism does not teach that Mary is a way to the father. Our choice to honor her as guided by the church is not a sin. Please stop searching for a speck in our eye. Thank you.
