Dispelling Roman Catholic lies is important since they have polluted the world with their blasphemous heresies.

Catholics are blinded under the blanket of blasphemy known as the roman catholic cult. Little do catholics realize that Jesus Christ is the victim of every mass – supposedly re-sacrificed, as if His one time perfect sacrifice on the cross 2,000 years ago was not enough! Catholics are given a “host” in the form of a round wheat wafer. The Latin word for host is hostia and means victim. Make no mistake: This is a blatant attack on Jesus Christ by Satan himself. The Bible tells us that Jesus “died unto sin once.” (Romans 6:10) His sacrifice was perfect and happened on the day He offered His sinless body and blood on the altar of the cross to pay for the sins of the whole world. “It is finished” means “paid in full.” That’s what Jesus cried on that cross before the Son of God gave up the ghost (John 19:30).

“by his own blood he entered in ONCE into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.” Hebrews 9:12

“but now ONCE in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.” Hebrews 9:26

“So Christ was ONCE offered to bear the sins of many.” Hebrews 9:28

“For Christ also hath ONCE suffered for sins…” 1 Peter 3:18

NO such thing as a catholic who is a born again Christian! STOP the excuses and lead them to Jesus! You are in darkness! 1 Corinthians 10:21

How Does the Catholic Church View Communion?

A Catholic heathen wrote this:

“THE HOST [Eucharist cracker/wafer] IS NOT AN IMAGE OF GOD, BUT GOD HIMSELF!!!!!!!!”

Pope John Paul II (a.k.a. Karol Joseph Wojtyla–his real name) said about the Eucharist in his 1980 Encyclical Letter on the Mystery and Worship of the Eucharist — “Adoration of Christ in this Sacrament of love must also find expression in various forms of Eucharistic devotion: personal prayer before the Blessed Sacrament [the Eucharist], hours of adoration, periods of exposition – short, prolonged and annual (Forty Hours) – Eucharistic benediction, Eucharistic processions, Eucharistic Congresses.”

The mass is the center of Catholicism and the Eucharist (that little round wafer above) is the center of the mass.

“…[E]ucharistic worship is the center and goal of all sacramental life.” –Karol Wojtyla, aka pope John Paul II

Communion was never meant to become a cold, dead ritual like the Roman cult has made it.

Communion is for the “remembrance” of Christ’s redemptive death on the cross and not the reality of supposedly eating the very flesh and drinking the literal blood of Jesus in the elements. The catholic church calls this “transubstantiation” which is a lie. The roman cult teaches that as one of their unsaved priests waves his sinful hand over the elements (bread and grape juice) that those elements literally become the actual flesh and blood of Jesus Christ-literally. It’s a good thing to challenge them to produce DNA evidence of such. Lie debunked. Case closed.

In instituting communion, Jesus instructed us to “do this in REMEMBRANCE of me” not in the reality of me (Luke 22:19) ….., believing that Christ’s ACTUAL blood and body is what you are drinking and eating is an ancient pagan practice. John 6 is not even speaking about communion. It’s an illustration of who He is… He is the bread of life and He’s also “the door” but that doesn’t mean the Son of God is a piece of wood because He said “I am the door” (John 10). Should we now eat wood to eat “Jesus”? Then Jesus said He’s “the vine” but does that mean Jesus is a literal stalk with leaves? (John 15) When we look at the whole of Scripture, we see that Jesus is speaking figuratively, not literally as He did in many other places, two of which were just listed (Door, Vine). He does this to teach us by illustration who He is. In John 6 when Jesus says He is “the bread,” Christ was speaking of partaking with Him, not trying to eat Him physically, literally. Ask yourself; Did Jesus stand there that day handing out parts of His physical body? Of course not. If not, then why would He today want us think we are eating Him or fellowshipping with Him by chewing Him when we eat bread to commemorate His death for us?

In that very passage and context (John 6), Jesus says “He that believeth (not eats) hath everlasting life.” (John 6:47) Then He tells us “It is the spirit that quickeneth (makes alive); the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.” (John 6:63)

We receive Jesus by faith and walk with Him by faith and not by thinking we are literally eating Him. Isn’t that cannibalism?

TRANSUBSTANTIATION – TRUE OR FALSE? If God does a miracle, it doesn’t have to be propped up or lied about – it can stand on its own merit and be substantiated by science. In 1,700 years, the catholic church has never validated it claims that the wheat actually becomes the literal body of Jesus nor has it ever proved by DNA testing that the grape juice actually becomes the blood of Jesus. If as they teach in their doctrine of transubstantiation, that the wheat becomes the literal body of Jesus and the juice becomes the literal blood of Jesus, then it should be tested to see if it’s literally true, or a hoax/lie. What have they to hide by the results of DNA testing? – Their whole religion is what they have to lose because it stands or falls on this ancient babylonian doctrine.

Question: While tasting that wheat, does it taste like juice or does it taste like blood?

Question: When tasting that wheat wafer, does it taste like wheat or does it taste like human flesh?

Biblical communion is symbolic not substantive as the catholic false teaching of transubstantiation claims.

No true Christian believes that Jesus Christ, the eternal God, is turned into a piece of wheat by a robe-wearing priest from a religion God never sanctioned.

The roman catholic religion and its doctrines utterly deny the total sufficiency of Christ and His COMPLETED, perfect work on the cross. They teach that you have to keep physically eating Jesus. SMH

Jesus Christ said, “do this in REMEMBRANCE of me!”…..Remembrance is different from actual transformation!

Biblical communion is a memorial of the sacrificial love of Jesus for us displayed in his crucifixion, not the worship of a piece of mere wheat, deceitfully pretending to cannibalistically eat the actual, literal body of Jesus, something He never told us to do.

Salvation is through Christ, the divine Person – the crucified, risen LORD and Savior – and not the catholic “jesus” which is a piece of wheat that supposedly literally becomes God as the unsaved catholic sinner priest waves his sinful hand over it.

FAITH IS ONLY AS VALID AS THE ONE IT IS PLACED IN – IS YOUR FAITH IN THE HISTORIC CHRIST OF HOLY SCRIPTURE OR A WHEAT “JESUS”? ACCORDING TO HOLY SCRIPTURE, WE ARE NOT TO RECEIVE CHRIST IN WHEAT FORM, BUT RATHER BY FAITH IN THE HEART – FOR HIS “FINISHED” (PERFECTLY COMPLETED) WORK (John 19:30).

Confessing your sin to a mere man, a sinner in a costume, remits no sin. You must repent before a holy God and believe on the LORD Jesus Christ to be saved, forgiven (Acts 20:21).

Drinking Blood Forbidden in Both Testaments

Acts 15 … “But that we write unto them, that they abstain from pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from things strangled, and from blood. For Moses of old time hath in every city them that preach him, being read in the synagogues every sabbath day.” Acts 15:20-21

Drinking or eating blood is forbidden of God in both testaments so why would the Son of God contradict Himself by instituting such an abomination?

Transubstantiation has to be a false conclusion, otherwise the Lord Jesus Christ spoke against the Word of God.

“But flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye not eat.” Genesis 9:4

“And whatsoever man there be of the house of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among you, that eateth any manner of blood; I will even set my face against that soul that eateth blood, and will cut him off from among his people. ¹¹ For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul. ¹² Therefore I said unto the children of Israel, No soul of you shall eat blood, neither shall any stranger that sojourneth among you eat blood. ¹³ And whatsoever man there be of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among you, which hunteth and catcheth any beast or fowl that may be eaten; he shall even pour out the blood thereof, and cover it with dust. ¹⁴ For it is the life of all flesh; the blood of it is for the life thereof: therefore I said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall eat the blood of no manner of flesh: for the life of all flesh is the blood thereof: whosoever eateth it shall be cut off” Leviticus 17:10-14

“Only be sure that thou eat not the blood: for the blood is the life; and thou mayest not eat the life with the flesh. ²⁴ Thou shalt not eat it; thou shalt pour it upon the earth as water. ²⁵ Thou shalt not eat it; that it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee, when thou shalt do that which is right in the sight of the LORD” Deuteronomy 12:23-25

Communion God’s Way

Of Catholic communion, other writers note:

“Did you know the word mass means sacrifice, death, dismissal? The Catholics have masses, because in these masses they’re partaking in the killing, the sacrifice of Christ through the Eucharist ritual, and the occult/satanists also have masses because in the mass they offer up sacrifices of innocent lives to their so called gods, which is really satan and his demons. So, when wishing people “Merry Christmas” a person is actually wishing people happy sacrifice/death/dismissal of Jesus Christ; so in reality the whole Christmas thing has nothing to do with birth of Jesus. Christ was not born in December 25, the pagan sun-gods were born due to the winter solstice, Jesus, was born sometime late spring or early fall. ♡ To be healthy in our Christian walk and to be able to inherit God’s promise of heaven when we depart this world, we need to come away from all the pagan inspirations and lies in this world—it’s important to come away from the celebration of Christmas, in reality, it’s a big dark idolatrous lie against God and His only begotten Son.” Unknown

Another source says:

“The Mass. Unknown in the early church, the mass did not become an official doctrine until pronounced by the Lateran Council of 1215 under the direction of Pope Innocent III, and reaffirmed by the Council of Trent. The Church of Rome holds that the mass is a continuation of the sacrifice that Christ made on Calvary — in effect a re-crucifixion of Christ over and over again in an unbloody manner (cf. Heb. 9:22; 1 Jn. 1:7). They believe that by this means Christ offers Himself again and again as a sacrifice for sin (cf. Heb. 7:27; 9:12,25,26; 10:10,12,14,18), and that this sacrifice is just as efficacious to take away sin as was the true sacrifice on Calvary. Catholics thus teach the doctrine of transubstantiation (meaning a change of substance) — that the bread and wine (at communion) actually become (by the power of the priest!) the body and blood of Christ, which is then worshiped as God Himself! Indeed, the sacrifice of the mass is the central point of Catholic worship, as evidenced by the fact that those abstaining from attending mass are considered to have committed a mortal sin.” unknown

“The Eucharist has been referred to as the Catholic “wafer god”. I think that is an appropriate name for it. Without eating their Jesus, the Eucharist, Catholics believe they can’t go to heaven. Their Jesus, the Eucharist, is also called “The Sacrifice” and “The Victim” (see above encyclical for examples). You see, they don’t believe that the work of Jesus Christ was finished on the cross–He is supposed to be a perpetual victim always getting sacrificed over and over again. Dying over and over and over.

That’s why you continually see them with dead Jesus’ on crosses in their churches and homes–just hanging there, dead. My Jesus is not the “Eternal Victim”, He is the Eternal Lord of Lords and King of Kings! Jesus told me in His word that His ONE time sacrifice is finished, completed, over. The Lord Jesus Christ is back in heaven where He came from waiting on His enemies to be made His footstool, not hopping up to enter a piece of bread. The mythical Eucharist is just another man-made tradition.

What else did Karol say?

“The encouragement and deepening of the Eucharistic [cracker] worship are proofs of that authentic renewal…Jesus waits for us in this sacrament of love…”

Many Catholics say that I don’t understand Catholicism BUT NOT ONE will deny that they consider that cracker Jesus! NOT ONE WILL DENY that they fall down in front of images like this as well as statues, relics, paintings, and other images. NOT ONE will say that the ONE TIME sacrifice of Jesus Christ is enough to save your soul. I have told no lies on the Catholic religion on this site and I have no misunderstanding. Just go to some of their websites–you’ll see what I’m saying is true. Get into a conversation with one and ask them about these things–you’ll see they’re true. Compare their encyclicals, decretals, and catechism to the Bible and see if you don’t find contradictory documents. You don’t have to take my word for it.”

“Catholics tell me that “the Catholic Church is the only Church that was given the authority to interpret sacred scripture and to teach on matters of faith and morals without error.” Mmm, this is a pretty big claim. I have some questions for you, gentle reader:

[1] Look at the picture above one more time. Would you call that Eucharist cracker an image? Let me help you. An image is, according to Webster’s,

im-age (im’ij) n. an imitation or representation of a person or thing, drawn, painted, photographed, etc.; esp., a statue; a sculpted figure used as an idol.

The person is Jesus, the idol is the Eucharist cracker and surrounding monstrance. “But,” a Catholic would say to me, “we don’t worship idols, we worship Jesus.” Well, let’s look at Webster’s again for the definition of an idol:

i-dol (i’dl) n. an image of a god, used as an object or instrument of worship. [Didn’t Karol say to worship the Eucharist?]; any object of ardent or excessive devotion or admiration [Didn’t Karol say, “Eucharistic DEVOTION”?]

I like the following definition best which is also found in Webster’s New World Dictionary (1982): an impostor!”

The Rich Benefits of Communion - "The Lord's Supper"

“…The Lord’s supper.” 1 Corinthians 11:20 Many agree that the LORD seems to have given His New Testament church two ordinances…perhaps a third. An ordinance is a point of contact or physical enactment with a spiritual truth, reality. These are for born again believers and NOT in an attempt to become a Christian but only for those already born again into Christ. First, you must be born again: 1. Water baptism – to depict our own death, burial, and resurrection with Christ, and 2. Communion – where we are brought into remembrance of our LORD’s death – broken body and […]

Remembering Christ's Death

Scripture Reading: Luke 23:33-38 Remembering Christ’s Death as We Eat the Supper Intro. Like anything else we do regularly, the LORD’s Supper can become a repetitive reflex rather than a regular remembrance. Jesus commanded disciples to eat the LORD’s Supper “in remembrance of Me”, Lk 22:19. When the supper was being corrupted by division and commonality the HS directed Paul to teach Christians what to do and why to do it, 1 Cor 11:23-26. (Memorial that proclaims Christ’s death) Then, he addressed how we must eat, 1 Cor 11:27-29. Examine self to be certain we are “discerning” Lord’s body (His death). Since the LORD’s Supper is not reflexive repetition but respectful remembrance let us […]

The Exceeding Riches of His Grace

Excerpt from the book Lie of the Ages Ephesians 2:7 “But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: That in the ages to come he might show the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God.” Ephesians 2:4-8 Here are […]

The Only Way Up is Down [podcast]

Chapter 8 from the book Raised Up (narration)

“Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.” Proverbs 16:18

The Down and Up Principle of God’s Kingdom

“And the remnant that is escaped of the house of Judah shall again take root DOWNWARD, and bear fruit UPWARD.” Isaiah 37:31

The Scriptures follow a pattern of death and resurrection, a downward death and upward life. See if you can observe such a truth in the following verses:

“The LORD upholdeth all that fall, and raiseth UP all those that be bowed DOWN.” Psalms 145:14

Do you possess the blessed desire to be raised up by the Almighty? According to His divine wisdom given us in His precious Precepts, in order to be “raised up” we must first be “bowed down.” The LORD will not raise up any person who is still alive in his own power – He only raises up “those that be bowed down” in sincere humility before His majesty (Ps. 145:14; Jn. 12:23-25; Rom. 8:11).

“Those that be bowed down” will “take root downward” and be raised up in blessed fruitfulness (Isa. 37:31).

In order to “bear fruit upward,” one must first be planted in the house (kingdom) of the LORD and “take root downward” in the rich soil of His truth. The resurrection life of Jesus and ample fruitfulness will be the result.

Going deeper in God necessitates going down deeper into death and burial with Christ! Read Romans 6. There are no shortcuts (Galatians 5:24). Christ’s kingdom is a cross economy – one of utter humility and death to self that He might reign (John 12:23-25; 2 Corinthians 4:10-12; Galatians 2:20; Colossians 3:3, etc.).

“And whosoever shall exalt himself (upward) shall be abased (humbled); and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.” Matthew 23:12

“He must INCREASE, but I must DECREASE.” John 3:30

“And Jesus answered them, saying, The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat FALL INTO THE GROUND (downward) and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit (upward). He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life (downward) in this world shall keep it unto life eternal (upward).” John 12:23-25

“Humble yourselves (downward heart posture) in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.” James 4:10

The life of Christ will raise a man upward and this is after that man bows down his life or humbles himself under the mighty hand of God – first at initial salvation then in the consecrated life that brings God glory. Blessed resurrection life is the upward result of the life planted downward and this is the place from which ministry springs. Look at what the apostle Paul wrote in this regard:

“Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body. For we which live are always delivered unto death for Jesus’ sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh. So then death worketh in us, but life in you.” 2 Corinthians 4:10-12

Jesus declared to us that He came to make captives free from sin and Satan – “If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed” (Lk. 4:18; Jn. 8:31-32, 36).There is chain-shattering, freeing power (liberty) in the redeeming blood of Christ and by the power of the Holy Ghost (Lk. 4:18; Jn. 8:36; Acts 26:18; Col. 1:12-14; 1 Pet. 1:18-19; Rev. 12:11). The divine promise is that when one bows down before the LORD, every yoke shall be broken by Him who is above all (Isa. 58). No stronghold or bond of Satan has power when Christ’s blood is applied in sincere repentance and by the power of the Holy Ghost! The saint who is raised up after being bowed down, will glorify God in rich fruitfulness being “changed into the same image (Christ’s) from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.”

“Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.” 2 Corinthians 3:17-18

It is the divine Person of the Holy Ghost who raised up the LORD who was bowed down before His Father in death in order to purchase His Church with His own sinless blood (Acts 20:28). In like manner, it is the Holy Spirit with His resurrection power who raises up those who be bowed down before His throne of grace.

“And he (Jesus) was teaching in one of the synagogues on the sabbath. And, behold, there was a woman which had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and was bowed together, and could in no wise lift up herself. And when Jesus saw her, he called her to him, and said unto her, Woman, thou art loosed from thine infirmity. And he laid his hands on her: and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God… And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound, lo, these eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the sabbath day? And when he had said these things, all his adversaries were ashamed: and all the people rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by him.” Luke 13:10-13, 16-17

There can be no resurrection until there is first a death. A seed is dead or dormant then is planted and then germinates and brings forth bud, then a stalk and ultimately fruit – but first it must be buried downward in order to bear life-giving fruit upward. The life buried with Christ will be lifted up by divine power and bear much fruit to God’s glory (Jn. 15:8).

“But if the Spirit of him that raised UP Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised UP Christ from the dead shall also quicken (make alive upward) your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.” Romans 8:11

Our LORD had to first die and be buried “downward” in order to be raised “upward” by the Father in resurrection life to raise up and justify all those who would call upon Him in repentance (Rom. 1:4; 8:11; 10:13). In order for fruit to be borne “upward,” the disciple must first be planted “downward” in “the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death” (Isa. 37:31; Phil. 3:10).

“Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection.” Romans 6:3-5

“Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead.” Colossians 2:12

He created man with a choice (Josh. 24:15). In the end there will be “the resurrection of life” and also “the resurrection of damnation” (Jn. 5:28-29). Each of us will be in one of these resurrections – either everlasting life or eternal death (conscience separation from God in hell). The entrance into Heaven or termination into hell will hinge upon whom we served – God or self (Rom. 6:16).

Real promotion comes only from the Giver and Sustainer of all life – from the north (Heaven).

“For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south. But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another.” Psalms 75:6-7

That person who freely chooses to believe God, taking Christ at His Word, bowing under His infinite Majestic glory, will be raised up both now and forever and eternally glorified with the Alpha and Omega (Phil. 2:5-11; 2 Thess. 2:13-14).

“The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon. Those that be planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God. They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing.” Psalms 92:12-14

PRAYER: Please draw me deeper into You LORD Jesus. Father in Heaven, You sent Your only begotten Son to die for me in order that I might be raised up in new life in this brief life and eternally. I love You Jesus and ask You to lead me to that crucified life that you lived when here on earth and as You gave Your life blood on the cross to save Your people. Please quicken me by Your Holy Spirit and fill me afresh O LORD, that this life You gave might be fully one with You and fruitful and pleasing to Thee. Lord, I am watching and praying in light of Your soon return. In the name of Jesus, Amen.
