Is Roman Catholicism Evil?

Where does it say in scripture to call the Mediator, God?

1Ti 2:5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

The Gnostics (unknown, but quite POSSIBLY the earliest sect of Christianity after Jesus) and the Cathars (revival of Gnosticism in 1200s, violently wiped out by the RC) seemed to think so.

Remember, they are the ones regarded as heretics. Back in those times (Cathars) the Roman Catholic church was a MASSIVE political propaganda machine, well oiled, in convincing everyone who the enemy is (not them of course). And much of that propaganda has survived forever. There is a lot of violence associated with the RC Church history. Good violence? Or is all callous ruthless, burning people at the stake violence, evil?

It makes you wonder whether, regardless of what sect of Christianity we believe we come from, we all see the Bible according to the RC church, but just not their particular EXTENSIONS of it (their Gospel)

Who put the Bible together in the order that it is today, in the way they wanted you to see it? In the way that they wanted you to regard anything else as heresy? The RC church...

So however you think about the Bible, you are following the RC version of what is truth, and disregarding anything else (like you can't think for yourself or discern falsity yourself)- according to your belief in the RC Church being right about everything to do with what IS inspired by God, and what IS NOT.

In a way, regardless of what your Gospel is, it is rooted in the Roman Catholic church, because it is based on their version of truth, that you get that Gospel from.

You must know that the RC use a different bible than the rest of Christendom.

Do enlighten me. I know there are many versions/translations of the same Bible if that's what you mean.

You must know that the RC use a different bible than the rest of Christendom.

Is Roman Catholicism Evil?

The Catholic Church is not evil. Although it has done some evil things throughout the ages. Like the Spanish Inquisition.

The Bible is not a source of faith be which men can see the approval of God by . they make it to no effect by so that they can rather see the approval of men . According to the Catholics it as it is wriiten is not the gospel key that unlocks the mysteries of God They must seek after the approval of their daysman as that (seen) in whom they have named the Pope or the Holy See.

Christian walk by the faith of Christ that comes from hearing him not seen, the faith of God . If there are Christians in the Catholic sect its mighty dark if they remain. They need the light of the gospel

Making it a law (law of the fathers that Christ called a brood of vipers ) that they do need men to teach in doing so warning like that in respect to the anti-christs (many) have no effect on their religion.

If the verse is offered to them they must disregard what it says so they can continue to seek the approval of men as that seen called apostolic succession. Therefore in doing so they blaspheme the Holy name by which we are called, attributing the work of the Spirit of Christ to sinful men.

These things have I written unto you concerning them that seduce you.But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.1Jo 2:26

Your definition of evil is far different from the one I use. The teaching of the Roman Catholic church are in direct opposition to the truth of Gods word. They diminish and defame the Lamb of God putting Him to shame every day.

The word evil represents natural unconverted man, the generation of Adam. Evil things are those that make the word of God as the things of God without effect so that they can be self serving as the things of men .

A proper understanding between the "things of God "and "those of men" must be made if we are to rightly divide .The things of men offend God. No man can serve two masters.

Well that settles that. I'll bet God appreciates your efforts. There won't be any need for Him to judge the Catholic Church since you two have taken it upon yourselves to pronounce judgement. Well done, sirs.

Its not my judgement, its the judgement by which he judges the Catholic church. Its his word after no man. They make his judgment without effect. Its why they are referred to as anti-christs. The Pope takes the place of Christ as another Christ another gospel .

Do the Catholics need glasses? It says right there in black and white in Exodus 20:4 that we are NOT to make unto ourselves ANY likeness of anything that is in heaven!!! Mary is in heaven. We are NOT to make any likenessthis of her according to Exodus 20:4.TSo what do you call a statue of mother Mary? It surely is a likeness of her, a graven image! Here's another shocker...

"Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them..." —Exodus 20:5

This is more evil than torture, because it send people to be torture forever in hell. This is delayed severe torture and evil

What do you see as a redeeming characteristic of the RCC?

I'm not Catholic, and I don't advocate the Catholic Church. But I don't think it's my place to judge them either.

I have known a lot of Catholics over the years who are good people, and believe in God.

 

[IamWhoIam]

It seems to me all those fancy robes and big hats, is quite similar to how the Pharisees operated back in the day.

we are not judge, in the contrary, catholic judge Protestant by inquisition, we are testing the teaching

1 john 4:1

1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

How can they be wrong if they have a big hat among other accessories? That is how we know they are important people, just look at the shiny hat man!!

Look at your own wrongs before you start pointing out others

 

[IamWhoIam]

Look at your own wrongs before you start pointing out others

Do you think you can go the rest of your life without doing a wrong?

at some point you have to come to a place where you understand the wrongs and correct them, if you continue to do wrong knowingly, how should that be handled?

 

[IamWhoIam]

Praying to Mary to be the Intercessor between people and Jesus is something that needs correcting, the other option is I don't want to say.

 

[IamWhoIam]

Changing water to wine is not why Mary came to Jesus because she felt compassionate for the people ,No,
the people who got married she knew very well and desired that the reception went smoothly, in a nut shell.

the praying to Mary concept is based solely on the wedding at Cana, and is of a wrong doctrine.
