Under The Banner Of The Rainbow Battle Flag, God Is Judging A Godless America By Allowing The LGBTQ+P For Pedophile Army To Take Control

I believe God’s judgment of America began in full in 2012 as President Barack Obama declared us to be an LGBTQ nation and raised the rainbow flag of judgment.

LGBTQ+P for Pedophiile Pride Month
SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

In both Testaments we read time and again that at some point, God gives people and nations over to the wicked desires of their hearts, and that becomes their judgment. This is why we are seeing the shocking and sudden rise of the LGBTQ+P for Pedophile Movement in the United States.

The true legacy of former president Barack Obama was not his phony signature healthcare program, or the Iran Nuclear Deal hoax, it was instead gifting power to the LGBTQ+P for Pedophile Movement in America. And I will make the case in this article that that power he gave them was given to him by none other than Almighty God. Let me explain what I mean before we go any further.

In the Bible, there is a principle of the ‘ever-filling cup’ in which God allows individuals and nations time and space to repent of their misdeeds, and if they chose not to, then He allows time and space for things to reach a boiling point before taking acting. The Bible uses the metaphor of a ‘filling cup’ that, when it gets to the top, triggers actions from God.

“For in the hand of the LORD there is a cup, and the wine is red; it is full of mixture; and he poureth out of the same: but the dregs thereof, all the wicked of the earth shall wring them out, and drink them.” Psalm 75:8 (KJV)

“Therefore pride compasseth them about as a chain; violence covereth them as a garment. Their eyes stand out with fatness: they have more than heart could wish. They are corrupt, and speak wickedly concerning oppression: they speak loftily. They set their mouth against the heavens, and their tongue walketh through the earth. Therefore his people return hither: and waters of a full cup are wrung out to them.” Psalm 73:6-10 (KJV)

When the Jews in the Old Testament no longer desire God to reign over them, but wanted an earthly king, God granted them the desires of their heart and gave them King Saul, perhaps the worst king Israel ever had. In both Testaments we read time and again that at some point, God gives people and nations over to the wicked desires of their hearts, and that becomes their judgment. This is why we are seeing the shocking and sudden rise of the LGBTQ+P for Pedophile Movement in the United States. God has given America what it has been begging for.

If you have been paying even a little attention, this is how Pride Month has changed America:

REVERSAL OF POWER: As the LGBTQ+P For Pedophile Movement has ascended, have you noticed that white people, traditional marriage and pure children are now considered to be wrong? If you think I am joking, perhaps you should read ‘37 Things White People Need To Stop Ruining In 2018′ over at the Buzzfeed cesspool, or how about ‘Should White Boys Still Be Allowed to Talk?‘ published by Dickinson College. Amazon will be more than happy, thrilled in fact, to sell you a copy of ‘Raising the Transgender Child: A Complete Guide for Parents, Families, and Caregivers‘. And oh, guess what? Your straight, white, heterosexual child is now a homophobic bigot who is no longer entitled to have a voice because of their ‘white privilege’. You see, the LGBTQ+P For Pedophile Movement never wanted tolerance, never wanted acceptance, and never wanted equality, so what did they want? Control. Guess what? They have it now.

listerine-corporate-sponsor-lgbtqp-pride-month-2019

REVERSAL OF FORTUNE: How has the LGBTQ+P For Pedophile Movement risen so far and so fast? Money, buckets and buckets of money. Instead of giving you an endless list of the corporations in America that are financing both Pride Month and the LGBTQ+P For Pedophile Movement, let me tell you the ones who are not supporting Pride Month. Ready? It’s Chick-fil-A. Multiple Google searches returned nothing other than that when I looked for “companies who don’t support Pride Month’. You try it and let me know what  you come up with. Maybe you will find a few, but that’s all it will be, a few of them. The LGBTQ+P for Pedophile Movement has gotten so much funding and support that they are now turning away corporations who seek to promote Pride Month who don’t meet their ‘exacting standards‘.

REVERSAL OF FREEDOM: The very first text book in any United States college was the King James Bible, all the Founding Fathers said that any nation needed God to guide them to succeed. But in the LGBTQ+P for Pedophile age, the Bible is out and Satan is in. Up in Canada 4 days ago, a street preacher arrested for evangelizing in Toronto’s “gay village” was released Wednesday after a night behind bars on bail conditions barring him from “Pride” events and the homosexual district. We did an article just two days ago showing you how satanism has taken over nearly everything in television, movies, sports and music. You are no longer free to speak your mind if it goes against the LGBTQ+P for Pedophile agenda. In just the past week I have lost my Pinterest account and one of my two Facebook pages, with Twitter hanging in the balance. Why? Because of articles like this. The LGBTQ do not, I repeat, do not allow for freedom of speech and diversity of thought in their New America. It is their way or no way at all.

Now Let’s Get Back To Barack Obama

Way back in 2012, I wrote an article entitled ‘OBAMA IS THE KING GOD HAS GIVEN TO REIGN OVER AMERICA IN THE LAST DAYS‘, you can go read it if you like, but let me give you an excerpt from that here. I think after you read it you will see that God used Obama, like He used Saul in the Old Testament, to start judgment on America.

THIS IS WHO GOD USED TO BEGIN JUDGMENT ON AMERICA

***

>>>start original article

Barack Obama, 44th president of the United States of America. He is so enthusiastically in favor of sacrificing babies on the altar of Planned Parenthood that when he was a state senator he voted 3 times against the “Born-Alive Infants Protection Act”. The bill recognized babies born after attempted abortions as persons and required doctors to give them care.’ Obama voted to withhold that care. 3 times. Under his recently-passed Obamacare bill, abortion is now taxpayer-funded. That means that all America shares in the killing of these babies, their blood is upon all of us.

“And the LORD said unto Samuel, Hearken unto the voice of the people in all that they say unto thee: for they have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them…Now therefore hearken unto their voice…and shew them the manner of the king that shall reign over them.” 1 Samuel 8 (KJV)

He glorifies homosexuality and all manners of sexual perversion, and in the process has used his office of president to mandate the forced acceptance of homosexuality on our society.

Newsweek magazine called him the “first gay president”. He is the first American president to openly back and endorse gay marriage, and again use the office of president to make that desire a reality. He proclaimed the entire month of June to be Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgendered Pride Month in America. In fact, he made it a national ordinance:

“NOW, THEREFORE, I, BARACK OBAMA, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, BY VIRTUE OF THE AUTHORITY VESTED IN ME BY THE CONSTITUTION AND THE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES, DO HEREBY PROCLAIM JUNE 2012 AS LESBIAN, GAY, BISEXUAL, AND TRANSGENDER PRIDE MONTH. I CALL UPON THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES TO ELIMINATE PREJUDICE EVERYWHERE IT EXISTS, AND TO CELEBRATE THE GREAT DIVERSITY OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.” NEWSWEEK QUOTE.

Barack Obama stands openly for the things that God is against. He takes great pride is doing so. He campaigned with these things as the reasons why you should vote for him and re-elect him to the office of president.

The first time he ran for president he was largely an unknown entity, and he used great guile and deceit to become elected. But when we all went to the polls this week to again decide to vote him in or not, he was a very well-known candidate.

We didn’t vote with ballots so much as we voted with our hearts, with our passions, and with our national vision of who America shall be for the next four years. We have said with our votes that the likes and passions of Barack Hussein Obama are the likes and passions of the America people. Obama is for abortion, we are for abortion. Obama is for gay marriage, we are for gay marriage. Obama is for glorifying sexual perversion, we are for glorifying sexual perversion. And the endless list goes on.

We voted him in because he is the manifestation of what is inside our hearts as a nation. He is the embodiment of our spiritual dysfunction, the living, breathing representation of our disdain for the commandments of the Holy God of Israel. Obama is anti-Christ, and we love it. Obama openly mocks the God of the bible by his love for Islam, and we stand and cheer him till our throats go hoarse. We have told God that we will no longer follow His ways nor submit to His commandments, and God has given us a king to rule over us to fulfill that desire. We have desired evil and refused the good so that now God has given us over to a reprobate mind.

“And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.” Romans 1 (KJV)

As a nation, we have been given over to judgment, to uncleanness, to, as the bible says, a ‘reprobate mind’. We cannot repent because we don’t think we have done anything wrong. We see ourselves as progressive, open-minded, non-judgmental and all-inclusive, and not as wicked, vile, sinful and rebellious against God as His word says we are. We have changed the Truth of God into the lie of the Devil, and God has given us a king to rule over us who will make sure we cannot find our way back.

Barack Hussein Obama is God’s judgment on America for our sins, and it is a judgment from which I don’t think we shall ever recover. Right up to the very moment he and all his men drowned in the Red Sea, Pharaoh was sure of his victory. He was deluded unto death, as is Obama as he leads us ever downward towards a ‘ruinous heap’. >>>end original article

Let Us Hear The Conclusion Of The Matter

Here’s the conclusion: We sit here 7 years removed from when I wrote that Obama article, and the United States of America is swirling in unrelenting chaos and turmoil, with insanity ruling the day. New York not only just passed a law making it illegal to declaw a kitten, they also passed a law making it a ‘woman’s right’ to abort your baby up to the moment of birth. All those things I outlined in that 2012 article are now not only come true but old news.

“Thus saith the LORD, Behold, a people cometh from the north country, and a great nation shall be raised from the sides of the earth. They shall lay hold on bow and spear; they are cruel, and have no mercy; their voice roareth like the sea; and they ride upon horses, set in array as men for war against thee, O daughter of Zion.” Jeremiah 5:22,23 (KJV)

God will typically judge a nation when its cup is full by sending in an invading army, we see this in Job, Jeremiah and other places. God has indeed sent in an invading army to destroy America, and it wasn’t Russia, China or Iran, No, you can see their battle flag is pictured at the top of this article. President Barack Obama, in the proclamation we showed you above, issued a solemn decree in the name of the citizens of America, that the agenda of the LGBTQ+P for Pedophile Movement become America’s agenda, and then he had the 6-color rainbow flag raised over the White House.

“Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people.” Proverbs 14:34 (KJV)

God honored Obama’s request and what you will see in the videos below is the America we now have. But you better keep quiet, because if you don’t, the LGBTQ+P for Pedophile soldiers will come and hunt you down. Don’t say anything when your kids are being taught in public school how to transition to a different gender. Don’t say anything when the company you work for puts up rainbow flags at the office and forces you to celebrate Pride Month whether you want to or not. (I chose not to and Citibank fired me in 2014).

Most of all, keep quiet about God, the Bible and Jesus Christ, that’s what intolerant, homophobic white people believe in. Let them have your kids, let them control your workplace, pay any price so that  you can have the false peace that your cowardly soul so desperately craves. You haven’t opened your mouth for one minute as you watched them take over, you surrendered without a fight, why start now as they are taking their victory lap? The America you once knew is not ‘in trouble’, that was 2012. The America you once knew is gone, and 2020 will ‘seal the deal’.

This Is The America You Asked God To Give You

Now The End Begins is your front line defense against the rising tide of darkness in the last Days before the Rapture of the Church

Please continue to pray for us, and for wisdom for me especially, as we continue taking steps to print the NTEB branded King James Bible for our free Bible and Bibles Behind Bars program. It is exciting and intimidating at the same time. If the Lord has prospered your financially, we ask you to donate to help us continue to send out free Bibles at this level, and even higher than we are at the moment. It takes a lot of prayer, and a lot of resources to do all this. Praise the Lord we are doing it, all of us together, labouring in the Lord’s harvest field. TO THE FIGHT!!!

When you contribute to this fundraising effort, you are helping us to do what the Lord called us to do. The money you send in goes primarily to the overall daily operations of this site. When people ask for Bibles, we send them out at no charge. When people write in and say how much they would like gospel tracts but cannot afford them, we send them a box at no cost to them for either the tracts or the shipping, no matter where they are in the world. We have a Gospel Billboard program. We are now broadcasting Bible studies, Podcasts and a Sunday Service 5 times a week, thanks to your generous donations. All this is possible because YOU pray for us, YOU support us, and YOU give so we can continue growing.

But whatever you do, don’t do nothing. Time is short and we need your help right now. The Lord has given us an open door with a tremendous ‘course’ for us to fulfill that will create an excellent experience at the Judgement Seat of Christ. Please pray for our efforts, and if the Lord leads you to donate, be as generous as possible. The war is REAL, the battle HOT and the time is SHORTTO THE FIGHT!!!

“Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;” Titus 2:13 (KJB)

THE PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: The UFC On The White House Lawn This Weekend Stunningly Brings Us The Ancient Roman Empire Roaring Back To Life

Published

on

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

President Trump Hosting UFC On The White House Lawn Is A Stunning Symbol Of America’s Roman Spirit And The Coming Revived Roman Empire Of Daniel

Washington has always been draped in Rome. From the Senate to the Capitol, from the marble columns to the imperial domes, from the eagle imagery to the fasces displayed in Congress, America’s ruling class built its civic temple with Roman hands and Roman imagination. The United States presented itself as a republic, but it borrowed the language, architecture, symbolism, and ambition of the empire that came before it. Rome was never as far away from America as we were told. It was carved into the stone from the beginning. Now the symbolism has stepped out of the marble and onto the White House lawn.

“For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled. And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.” Revelation 17, 17,18 (KJB)

On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, Rome understood spectacle. Rome understood how to command the imagination of the people. The arena was never merely entertainment. It was power on display. It was the empire telling the masses who ruled, who conquered, who mattered, and who could be crushed. The Caesars knew that the people could be governed through bread, blood, theater, fear, glory, and distraction. The arena was Rome’s pulpit, and the empire preached itself through violence, triumph, and applause America learned the lesson well, very well. The White House, the palace of American executive power, becomes the stage. The fighters become the spectacle. The cameras become the amphitheater. The nation watches as combat entertainment is fused with politics, patriotism, celebrity, military pageantry, and national celebration. Just as it was in the days of Rome. This is not just another headline in a collapsing age. This is a prophetic snapshot of the Roman spirit of empire rising in the modern West. America is not named in Daniel as the final empire, but America has carried the Roman spirit across the modern world. It has exported Roman-style law, military order, global dominance, civic religion, political symbolism, mass entertainment, and imperial power under the banner of freedom and democracy. America calls itself a republic, but it increasingly behaves like an empire. That was Rome’s path as well. First the republic, then the strong men, then the spectacle, then the empire. And finally, the inevitable collapse of all of it. The White House lawn has become the arena, and that old Roman spirit is speaking once again. Here at our 250th anniversary, our republic is fading, the spectacle is rising, the Beast system is forming. And the final empire of Antichrist is preparing for its last act before the King of kings returns to break it in pieces and set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed. Is America Mystery Babylon? That’s the question we will be looking to answer here on Day 2,279 of 15 Days To Flatten The Curve!

THE PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: Spielberg Says ‘Disclosure Day’ Movie Takes The Position Of The Catholic Church To Prepare People To Receive Aliens

Spielberg’s New Aliens Film ‘Disclosure Day’ Shows How Hollywood, Rome And The Government Are Conditioning Mankind To Receive A Counterfeit Revelation

Now here’s a little wrinkle to the new Steven Spielberg ‘Disclosure Day’ movie that almost no one is talking about. Spielberg says the movie narrative takes the position of the Roman Catholic Church to prepare people to welcome UFOs and aliens into our global society. Remember that Vatican announcement some years back when Pope Francis said when aliens arrive, the Catholic Church will baptize them? Well, hello there! Steven Spielberg and the Vatican in an end times bed together, who knew? Now you know. You won’t hear this on any other Podcast, so buckle up.

“And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.” 2 Corinthians 11:14 (KJB)

On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, back in 2014, Pope Francis stunningly said Rome would be open to baptizing Martians when they showed up. Now Steven Spielberg is rolling out a UFO disclosure film with a Roman Catholic nun character and theological questions about God, creation, and intelligent life beyond earth based on Roman Catholic doctrine and teachings. Hollywood and the Vatican are not accidentally walking down the same road — they are rehearsing the same end-times script. Amos asks “Can two walk together except they be agreed?” They cannot. This Friday, Steven Spielberg gives the world the gospel of the coming Antichrist as Rome gets ready to sprinkle the aliens upon their arrive. And this lost world, already primed by decades of UFO and extreterrestrial conditioning, will call it revelation while the Bible openly calls it deception, and warns us not to fall for it. Christian, you have no idea how deep this rabbit hole goes, but today, you’re going to find out!

How Constantine’s 4th-Century Religious Revolution Turned Persecuted Christianity Into The State-Backed Roman System That Became The Catholic Church

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

The Roman Catholic Church Rose From The Ruins Of Pagan Rome As Constantine’s Empire Turned Christianity Into A State-Favored Religious Institution

The origins of the Roman Catholic Church are not found in Peter preaching at Pentecost, Paul writing to the churches, or the apostles planting local assemblies under the authority of Jesus Christ. The New Testament church began in the first century as a spiritual body of born-again believers saved by grace through faith. The Roman Catholic system, as a centralized, hierarchical, sacramental, state-favored religious institution, began taking recognizable shape in the 4th century, when professing Christianity was forcibly joined to the power structure of the Roman Empire in what can only be described as a hostile corporate takeover. Cue the woman riding on the Beast.

And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration.” Revelation 17:6 (KJB)

The Bible knows nothing of a pope ruling from Rome, a priesthood offering a repeated sacrifice of the mass, Mary as mediatrix, purgatory, relic veneration, indulgences, cardinals, monasteries, confessionals, or a Vatican state. Those are not apostolic doctrines. They are later historical developments, many of them growing out of the centuries after Constantine. The church that Christ purchased with His blood was not a Roman corporation. It was, and remains, a spiritual body.

“Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.” Acts 20:28 (KJB)

Constantine Did Not Start Christianity, He Politicized It

The decisive historical shift came under Constantine. In A.D. 313, Constantine and Licinius issued what is commonly called the Edict of Milan, granting legal toleration to Christianity and restoring confiscated Christian property. Britannica describes it as the proclamation that “permanently established religious toleration for Christianity within the Roman Empire.” That was the beginning of the Constantinian shift: Christianity moved from persecuted faith to protected religion. But what looked like relief from persecution also opened the door to corruption by imperial power. Before Constantine, Christians were often hunted by Rome. After Constantine, bishops began receiving imperial favor, church disputes became matters of state interest, and the machinery of Caesar began wrapping itself around professing Christianity. That is not the pattern of the New Testament.

Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight,” John 18:36 (KJB)

The Lord Jesus Christ did not commission His apostles to build a religious empire. He sent them to preach the gospel for the salvation of individual souls for the body of Christ.

Nicaea Shows The New Imperial Church Order

In 325 AD, Constantine called the Council of Nicaea to address the Arian controversy over the deity of Christ. The deity of Christ is absolutely Bible truth, and Arius was wrong. But the historical issue is not merely what doctrine was debated; it is who summoned the council and what that revealed. Even the Catholic Encyclopedia, preserved at New Advent, says the emperor “begged the bishops of every country to come promptly to Nicaea,” provided imperial transport, and supplied their maintenance during the council. It also admits that it is “not historically known” whether Constantine convoked the council solely in his own name or in agreement with Pope Sylvester.

That is a staggering admission. Why? Because that means that the first great council of the emerging imperial church order was not called by an apostle, not called by Scripture, not called by a New Testament pattern of local church authority, and certainly not by Jesus hand-picked leader Paul, but by a Roman emperor. The problem is not that Nicaea affirmed the deity of Christ. The problem is that this moment reveals a new arrangement: the emperor and the bishops now standing together in a system of church-state power. The apostolic churches had pastors, elders, and bishops. They did not have Caesar organizing their doctrine and funding their councils.

“The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder,” 1 Peter 5:1 (KJB)

Peter did not call himself pope. He called himself “an elder.”

Theodosius Completed What Constantine Began

Constantine legalized and favored Christianity to enhance and increase his political power and control. Later, Theodosius I pushed Nicene Christianity into the position of imperial orthodoxy. Britannica notes that Theodosius “established the creed of the Council of Nicaea (325) as the universal norm for Christian orthodoxy” and convened the Council of Constantinople in 381. This is where the matter becomes even more plain. By the late 4th century, the Roman Empire was no longer merely tolerating Christianity. It was enforcing a particular form of Christianity as the approved religion of the empire.

That is the soil from which Roman Catholicism grew. not the upper room, but the imperial court; not apostolic simplicity, but Roman organization; not spiritual separation, but church-state union.

The Bible warned against exactly this type of mixture:

Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness?” 2 Corinthians 6:14 (KJB)

The Church At Rome Was Not The Roman Catholic Church

Paul wrote to believers at Rome in the first century, but Romans is not a Catholic epistle. There is no pope in Romans. No mass. No Marian dogma. No priestly confessional. No Vatican treasury. No sacramental system. Paul addressed saved people in a local assembly.

“To all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints:” Romans 1:7 (KJB)

Notice what he does not say: “To the pope at Rome.” He does not address Peter as bishop of Rome. He gives no instruction to submit to Roman supremacy. He teaches the same gospel he preached everywhere else: justification by faith, grace, the blood of Christ, and the righteousness of God apart from the works of the law.

Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:” Romans 5:1 (KJB)

The later Roman Catholic claim that the church of Rome is the mother and mistress of all churches cannot be read out of the New Testament. It must be read back into it from later ecclesiastical tradition, which is exactly what they did.

The Bishop Of Rome Rose By Prestige, Politics, And Power

The bishop of Rome did not appear in the first century as a universal pope. His authority grew gradually because Rome was the imperial capital, wealthy, influential, and associated by tradition with Peter and Paul. Over time, the Roman bishop increasingly claimed special authority over other churches. But that development was historical and political, not biblical and apostolic. In the New Testament, church government is local. Bishops and elders oversee flocks. No single bishop rules the entire body of Christ from one city.

Paul told Titus:

“For this cause left I thee in Crete, that thou shouldest set in order the things that are wanting, and ordain elders in every city,” Titus 1:5 (KJB)

That is the Bible pattern: elders in every city, not a pope over every church.

Pagan Rome Did Not Die, It Put On A Religious Robe

The Roman Catholic system absorbed much of the machinery, imagery, and religious instinct of pagan Rome. As the empire became “Christianized,” the old Roman appetite for temples, ceremonies, sacred offices, relics, holy days, and priestly mediation was repackaged under Christian vocabulary.

This is one of the most important points: Roman Catholicism did not simply absorb New Testament Christianity. It institutionalized, ritualized, and Romanized it. The result was a religious system with Christian terms but Roman architecture; biblical names but pagan habits; apostolic language but imperial structure. The New Testament believer is not saved through a church hierarchy. He is saved by the finished work of Jesus Christ.

“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.” Ephesians 2:8,9 (KJB)

That one verse destroys Rome’s sacramental system. A number of years ago, Pope Francis dispatched Anglican bishop Tony Palmer to start spreading the message that Rome now believed in salvation by grace through faith, but it was a ‘failed from the start’ effort that rang hollow everytime it was sounded.

The Real Issue Is Authority

At the heart of the Roman Catholic question is not merely history. It is authority. Rome says authority is Scripture plus tradition, interpreted by the magisterium under papal authority. The Bible believer says final authority is the word of God. Anything else that is more or less is not of God.

“All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:” 2 Timothy 3:16 (KJB)

The Roman Catholic system must lean on tradition because its defining doctrines cannot possibly be established from the New Testament. The papacy, the mass as a sacrifice, Marian dogmas, purgatory, indulgences, priestly absolution, and the treasury of merit are not apostolic Christianity. They are later man-made additions.

The Bible warns against religious tradition replacing the commandment of God:

“Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition,” Mark 7:13 (KJB)

The Bottom Line

The Roman Catholic Church did not begin as the church Christ founded. It arose as a historical development after the apostles, especially in the 4th century, when Christianity was legalized, favored, organized, and eventually enforced by Roman imperial power. Constantine opened the door in 313 AD. Nicaea in 325 AD displayed the new imperial-bishop alliance. Theodosius advanced Nicene Christianity as the empire’s religious norm by the end of the 4th century. From that soil grew the Roman Catholic institution: hierarchical, sacramental, political, and centered increasingly on the authority of Rome.

The first-century church was a body of believers gathered around the apostle Paul and his gospel. The Roman Catholic Church became a religious empire gathered around Rome and its hierarchy. That’s the dividing line.

  • One is spiritual. The other is institutional.
  • One is built on the finished work of Christ. The other developed a priestly system of mediation.
  • One preaches salvation by grace through faith. The other binds men to sacraments, tradition, and ecclesiastical authority.

The Bible believing conclusion is plain: the Roman Catholic Church is not the mother of biblical Christianity. It is the Roman corruption and counterfeit of it. At the Council of Trent in 1545, the Roman Catholic Church offficially declared their opposition to Paul’s gospel, and that’s where things have remained ever since.
