Have You Been Saved From Eternal Damnation, OR, Have You Been Condemned ?
If you are a Roman Catholic, then you probably believe, that right up to the moment of death, if you haven’t confessed some major sin, you, actually your spirit, is going to end up in either a place that Catholics refer to as “Purgatory” or, God forbid, your going to hell.
If you are a Christian born again in Christ Jesus, you know better.
This is a false doctrine, a false dogma used by the Roman Catholic Church, to strike a false fear, fear of God, fear of spiritual eternal damnation, fear of separation from God into the lay people, in other words the “Church” for the people are the church.
Roman Catholicism has lost track of, and corrupted the “Word of Almighty God” in order to serve its own agenda, not to serve God.
The church is not some huge building or cathedral, it is a collection of like-minded believers. This Roman Catholic teaching is not according to God’s Holy teachings, in the Holy Bible. The church of Jesus Christ is not some group of Cardinals and Bishops lead by some leader/pope. The church is alive as long as its members are alive, but the Vatican and its leaders deliberately mislead the people, the church.
If one really stops and takes a good look at Roman Catholicism it is nothing more that a “Business” with it’s own personal bank the Vatican Bank and it exists to milk the public for all it can get.
It is a false doctrine a false dogma for it goes against that which God teaches through Jesus as well as through Paul the Apostle in God’s Holy Book The Holy Bible.
In JOHN: 14: 6; Our Lord and Saviour Jesus, tells us:
“I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man, cometh to the Father, but by me.”
In JOHN: 11: 25-26; Our Lord and Saviour Jesus tells us:
“I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in ‘Me’ though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever liveth and believeth in ‘Me’ shall never die.”
The Apostle Paul who was converted by Jesus personally and taught and inspired by the Holy Spirit, taught only that which the Holy Spirit inspired Paul to teach, to the “Gentile” peoples the Holy Spirit drew Paul to.
In the Epistle by the Apostle Paul to the Romans; ROMANS: 10: 9-13; we are taught in verse (9) “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth, the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.” Paul goes on to explain and expound upon this in verse (10) telling us that we believe with our hearts to righteousness, and if we confess our belief, our confession delivers to us our salvation. Paul goes on to tell us in verse (13); “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
Since neither Almighty God our Father, nor, Jesus Christ, the “Son of God” is capable of lying, what we read in scripture must be truth, truth from God, and if truth, it is fact, and is therefore a “Promise” by God to the people. You can take it to the bank guaranteed.
The Roman Catholics have been brain-washed into believing a fallacy, a wrongful teaching, a lie, and this could harm them spiritually.
On the otherhand though, a Christian, born again in Christ Jesus know that if he lives according to these scriptures, he or she is already saved and will see heaven.
