Letter to Catholics

*This post is taken from a letter written to some Catholic relatives of mine.

I wanted to tell you about some interesting prophecies involving the Catholic church that seem to be playing out. There was a Irish Catholic, St. Malachy, who had a vision of the last 112 popes. For each pope, he gave a latin phrase describing the Pope or their order. It seems that this prophecy has played out for every Pope, including the current Pope, Benedictine XVI, "the glory of the olive". As I"m sure you know, the olive branch is the emblem of the Benedictine order. Well, Benedictine is number 111 in the prophecy. The next pope, according to the prophecy, is to be the last pope, but also, the Bible's false prophet!

This is not Protestant bias against Catholics. Many Catholic theologians also hold this belief. Go to  Prophecy of the Popes to check this out, or Raiders News Update. The final pope is to be Petrus Romano, Peter the Roman. There's been a book written by two end-times scholars, maybe you've heard of it, but it details the prophecy and the scenearios around it, and accurately depicted the scandal that is going on within the Vatican.


Also, some things you may not be aware of, in my conversation with most Catholics, most are not aware of what the Vatican teaches; that Mary is sinless, and is the co-redeemer of humanity, along with Jesus.   The Bible teaches that "all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" (Rom 3:23).  And that "there is no other name by which we must be saved, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved."  Acts. 4:12).  Jesus himself said "I am the way, the truth and the life.  No one comes to the Father, except through me" (Jn. 14:6).  And the apostle Paul taught 5 For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus, 6 who gave himself as a ransom for all people. This has now been witnessed to at the proper time.



The Vatican also teaches that salvation is only obtained through observation of the sacraments in the RCC, whereas Ephesians 2:8-9 teaches that it is by grace alone through faith alone, it is the gift of God, not of works... The apostle Paul wrote to the Galatians: 8 But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let them be under God’s curse! 9 As we have already said, so now I say again: If anybody is preaching to you a gospel other than what you accepted, let them be under God’s curse!


The Roman Catholic Church is preaching a DIFFERENT GOSPEL. I capped that to emphasize this to you. As the Vatican pushes ahead for a global religion (one-world empire? Daniel 7:19), the Pope recently stated that the Protesetant church is wrong, and the only true church is the Catholic church.


What Protestants proclaim is not ourselves, but God's word as the only reliable, infallible revelation to mankind for his salvation, according to the gospel written in the pages of the holy Bible. That Jesus Christ died on the cross for our sins, as our propitiation (atonement sacrifice) to bring us to God. That when we repent of our sins, and confess Jesus Christ as our savior and Lord, God will save us (Rom. 10:9,10).

Paul says again, "We know that no one will be justified by the law (i.e. works)"

We 16 know that a person is not justified by the works of the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ. So we, too, have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be justified by faith in[a] Christ and not by the works of the law, because by the works of the law no one will be justified. Gal. 2:16


I hope this is helpful to you. Scripture says that whoever does not believe the truth of the gospel will be given over to the delusion so that they will beleive the lie (2 Thess. 2:9-12). There are many delusions upon the earth right now, aliens, ufos, evolution, mystic spirituality, spirit guides, etc. And the rapture of the church is near. Those left afterwards will believe the delusion, and it will be very hard for all left behind who will be saved.

I pray you will flee the Catholic church, it doesn't matter your heritage, flee that church and embrace the true gospel, and meet with true believers in the faith and obey God's word.
