Bible lesson # 13: Pope prays to Catholic saints. Christians pray only in the name of Jesus.

The Pope claims to know who have gone into Heaven, making them saints. The Bible says: Dont pray to spirits and the dead.

 

My wife was horrified, the day she understood what I was trying to tell her, and stopped praying in the name of Catholic saints. I told her:

«How do you know that this man was a saint, and are in Heaven? If this man was a hypocrite, he is certainly not in Heaven, and will not be able to listen to your prayers. But a demon wold like to answer you, claiming to be the «saint». Please pray in the name of Jesus only. Thats the only guaranty you have for not being taken for a ride by an unclean spirit»

Both King David and the Jewish Apostle Paul called people present in their time on Earth for saints.

Psalm 30:4
«Sing to the LORD, you saints of his; praise his holy name».

Romans 15:31
«Pray that I may be rescued from the unbelievers in Judea and that my service in Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints there».

The prayer of the saints that comes up to Jesus, that He presents to our Father in Heaven, are from his living saints on Earth. Me and you. Not from departed Spirits.

To the radical opposite of whom the Bible tells us are the saints, the Pope of Rome waits till people have departed, before the Vatican starts the process of beautification and papal approval of sainthood.

I have always wonder how the Pope is able to search the heart of the departed. And how the Church is able to recall what kind of miracles that took place. Sometime the Vatican appoint their saint hundreds of years after their body and soul was separated.

The Word of God is telling us that what the Papal system are doing is wickedness, that will be punished.

Praying to and consulting the dead is paganism with roots in Egypt, presented as «Christianity» by Rome.

Isaiah 19:3
«The Egyptians will lose heart, and I will bring their plans to nothing; they will consult the idols and the spirits of the dead, the mediums and the spiritists».

In First Samuel chapter 28, King Saul goes to the Witch of Endor, and ask her to call up the departed spirit of Samuel. He is strongly rebuked.

1. Sam 28:16:
Samuel said, «Why do you consult me, now that the LORD has turned away from you and become your enemy?»

To pray to departed spirits is basically inviting Satan to come and give you a religious spirit. The Messiah Jesus warned us sternly not to trust any other shepherds than Him.

John 10: 8-9
Therefore Jesus said again, “I tell you the truth, I am the gate for the sheep. All who ever came before me were thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them. I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved.

John: 10: 14
I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me.

John 14:6

Jesus answered, «I am the way and the truth and the life No one comes to the Father except through me»

John 8:24

«I told you that you would die in your sins; if you do not believe that I am the one I claim to be, you will indeed die in your sins»

Please listen. Repent from you sin of praying in any other name than Jesus. Repent or perish.

It is possible, that some of the people the Pope has declared saints, have made it into the Kingdom of Heaven. I cant be sure, because neither the Pope or I, would be able to read their hearts. Neither of us are their final judge.

But I am afraid, that quite a few of the declared saints of Rome, have ended up in Hell. This human tragedy is bad enough. But even worse, is the amount of religions demons that have been released by faithful Catholics praying in such names.

Thats why the book of Revelation, speaks about a Church that has turned into a beast, and a house of demons:

Revelation 18:2

With a mighty voice he shouted: “Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the Great! She has become a home for demons and a haunt for every evil spirit, a haunt for every unclean and detestable bird.

if you dont want to perish, you better get out of there, before its to late.

Vatican detains Pope’s butler as suspect in leaks probe

The Vatican has said it has detained a person it suspects of leaking a series of confidential documents and letters to the media.

Its not easy to be a butler. Lot of temptations around, like secret documents.

The leaks have described alleged corruption, mismanagement, and internal conflicts among top Holy See officials. The Vatican said the person was being questioned by Vatican magistrates. Reports citing unnamed sources said that he was the Pope’s personal butler.

The “Vatileaks” scandal, as it is known, has enraged the Holy See.

Last month, Pope Benedict XVI set up a special commission of cardinals to investigate the leaks.

Italian media have named the arrested man as Paolo Gabriele, a personal butler and assistant to the Pope and one of very few laymen to have access to the Pope’s private apartments.

The news of the discovery comes just a day after the president of the Vatican bank, Ettore Gotti Tedeschi, was ousted by its board.

My comment:

 1 John 2:6
Whoever claims to live in him must walk as Jesus did.

It would be wrong by me, to measure my faith by looking at the Pope. No doubt that we are equals in regards to the gospel, but still very different.

I do measure my faith in regards to the teaching and life of Jesus. Still I do not have my own bank director to sack, neither do I have a butler.

I can not say I have managed to identify my own police force, and I have not been granted diplomatic immunity. I guess Jesus did not have this either, so I do not mind.

 John 15:19


 If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you.

The Knights of Columbus blessed by heartless Vatican saint

He is the saint that is supposed to bring blessings to the Vatican priesthood. His skeleton is kept for display, but the skull is covered by a mask. His heart has been cut out. 

The corpse of a saint with a mask, and with his heart cut out.

Bishop William E. Lori’s message on the Aug. 4th, during the memorial Mass for all deceased Knights of Columbus. The crowed was gathered to celebrate the feast of  St. John Vianney.

“Just as you, dear members of the family of the Knights of Columbus: Stand in solidarity with the Holy Father, your bishops, and your priests, so too we stand in solidarity with you, in a solidarity of that love which overflows from the heart of Jesus and leads us and our loved ones to joys of everlasting life,”.

The lifeless saint, is surrounded by gold, and kept for display and adoration.

My comment:

There are 1,8 million members of the Knights of Columbus Worldwide. Most of them live in the US, and have formed one of the strongest Roman Catholic lobby groups on the planet.

The saint, who is the knight that secure blessings for the priesthood in the Roman Catholic Church, needs to get some fresh exposure.

This is what a Catholic site has recorded:

The body of Saint John Mary Vianney wearing a wax mask, found to be incorrupt by the Catholic Church. The body is entombed above the main altar in the Basilica at Ars, France.

On 4 August 1859, Vianney died at age 73. Before he was buried Vianney was fitted with a wax mask.

Biographers recorded miracles performed throughout his life, obtaining money for his charities and food for his orphans; he had supernatural knowledge of the past and future, and could heal the sick, especially children.

On 3 October 1874 Pope Pius IX proclaimed him Venerable; on 8 January 1905, Pope Pius X declared him Blessed and proposed him as a model to the parochial clergy; in 1925 Pope Pius XI canonized him.

 Source: SMWA.org

This is what Associated Press (AP) recorded in 2006:

 (AP) MERRICK, N.Y. In life, St. John Vianney was a revered 19th-century French clergyman who was said to be blessed with the ability to read the hearts of worshipers. In death, his own heart has became an object of worship.

For reasons unknown, Vianney’s body never decayed after death, and his heart and body have been encased in separate glass reliquaries in France for more than a century.

The heart and Vianney’s chalice will be placed at the front of the altar, where people can alternately walk past the relics and pray, or attend various Masses and other events commemorating the visit. The brownish heart, with just a hint of pink in the middle, sits in a small glass case.

Vianney was the 19th century CurÄe (curate, or pastor) of the village of Ars in France, and died there in 1859. When his body was exhumed in 1904 because of his pending beatification, it was found intact. Except for one time in 1925, when the heart was taken to Rome for Vianney’s canonization, it has never left France.

My comment:

This is the second time I write about this “saint”. The interesting side of the story is related to the cut out heart, and how a priest place this object on the altar, folds his hands and starts to pray.

This heart was removed from the corpse, when the Roman Catholic priests opened the grave of this person.

The heart of the “saint” has been kept in this golden box.

Faithful followers of the Pope, parade a cut of part of a corpse on their shoulders.

A Roman Catholic priest pray to, or in front of, a dead piece of flesh.

First: We are faced with a dead body with a mask. A skeleton, dressed up with black shoes and pants.

Since there are plenty of not dressed skeletons within the Roman Catholic Church, we need to question the need for giving this skeleton a plastic face, and long white hair. Surely not his real hair, but a wig I presume.

That the Associated Press writes that this skeleton is an “object of worship”, will by the Vatican be explained as a spiritual misunderstanding. We all need to be guided into the Catholic understanding of worship, which is not adoration, and visa versa.

To adore a skeleton, is anyhow a strange thing to do. Since Jesus plainly said: “Let the dead go and bury their own dead”.

Not only was he the corpse removed from the grave. The heart of the deceased was cut out from the body, and transported to Rome to be examined.

To anoint the living with the spirit of the dead, is not only a disgrace. It is an act of occultism, and for most people quite grotesque.

The Roman Catholic priest takes this kind of wickedness to the greater height’s. The priests stand and pray in front of this heart, and even parade this piece of a dead mans flesh on their shoulders.

Many people are not able to see that these individuals are the soldiers of Satan.  Many claimed to be Christians seems to desire an end time union with the devil him self. Just reunite with Rome.

Half a million Jews live in the Biblical heartland of Israel

Half a million Jewish Israelis are living beyond the Israel-Jordan border prior to 1967.

Some 200,000 reside in greater Jerusalem in areas annexed by Israel. Another 300,000 live in the so-called West Bank, the Biblical heartland of Judea and Samaria. At the current rate of growth, the Jewish population there will comprise about 750,000 people by 2025.

The evacuation of 8,000 Jewish settlers from Gaza and their absorption in Israel cost NIS 10 billion.

Those interested in turning back time and evacuating Israelis from the areas beyond the 1967 borders would have to invest NIS 600 billion for that end. An unreal figure.

My comment:

The first Italians and Irishmen that came to America as settlers, were welcomed into the city of New Amsterdam by the Dutch colonialists. But during the British occupation, the city was renamed after after the Dutch of York. «New York» was considered a more pleasing name to the King of England, than to call the city «New Amsterdam».

The opinion of the native American, who mostly lived on the «West Bank» of the Delaware River, was not taken into consideration.

The question is obvious:

Were the first 500.000 Europeans who settled in America, liberators of the land, or were they occupiers?

Most people will say that the European settlers were liberators. They ended up forming a new nation, and build it on Judeo-Christian values. The American Constitution from 1776 is based up on the 10 commandments. And every US President has to hold his hand on the Bible, and say an oath to God of the Bible.

The same Americans, are today trying to enforce Islamic laws and falsehood on the state of Israel. By trying to rob the Jewish people of their right to own properties and settle in the land of Judea and Samaria. This is the same Jewish homeland, from were the first US lawgivers got their inspiration.

Its amazing that the American leadership, including five of the the last six US Presidents, can not see this historical parallel.

Auction of “Holy blood” of Reagan cancelled

A vial said to contain a sample of the late US President Ronald Reagan’s blood has been withdrawn from sale by an online auction house.

Ronald Reagen acknowledge the Vatican as a statehood, gifted to the Pope by fascist leader Benito Mussolini in 1929.

The Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation had expressed outrage over the auction, in which bidding had reached over USD 30.000

UK-based PFC Auctions said in a statement that the vial would now be donated to the Reagan foundation.
The foundation said it was pleased the blood would stay “out of public hands”.

Source: The BBC.

My comment:

Just amazing. A sample of the “holy blood “ of Ronald Reagen.

To be frank. Ronald Reagan was the very US President who recognized the Mussolini gifted Vatican statehood.  The US has had an ambassador at the “Holy see” since 1986.

So Reagan might one day be called to a process of beautification.  They can start be examining the blood sample.  If it pleases the papacy, I am sure they will be able to exhume the corpse of the late president.

Friends are friends forever.

Catholics bow and worship corpses and dummies

On of the biggest spiritual tragedies of mankind, is Roman Catholics worshiping corpses and skulls.

A Roman Catholic priest bow and pray in front of a corpse, and bring a curse down on his own head.

One of the claimed to be Madonnas who are shifted around from “Church” to “church”, is Maria Bernadette. “She” is sleeping, or rather a wax doll representing her is seen sleeping.

Is is rather bizarre that a Roman Catholic priest can bow his head before a corpse, and pray to the remains of a created being. To do the same in front of a doll, is nothing but a shameful copy of the Muppet Show.

The Bible explains, that man shall not bow before created beings, neither formed as a male nor female.  This is an abomination in front of God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

 Deuteronomy 4:15-20

 Idolatry Forbidden

 You saw no form of any kind the day the Lord spoke to you at Horeb out of the fire. Therefore watch yourselves very carefully, so that you do not become corrupt and make for yourselves an idol, an image of any shape, whether formed like a man or a woman, or like any animal on earth or any bird that flies in the air,  or like any creature that moves along the ground or any fish in the waters below. And when you look up to the sky and see the sun, the moon and the stars —all the heavenly array —do not be enticed into bowing down to them and worshiping things the Lord your God has apportioned to all the nations under heaven.

Why can people not read this and obey?

When you find your self in the eternal prison of Hell, you can not blame your priest for deceiving you.

You were simply not willing to find out for your self, and be saved by leaving this horrible idolatry behind.

The Roman Catholic priesthood provokes God to anger. When pesticide, sickness and untimely death strike this kind of God mockers, they curse God rather than being willing to repent. Many of them have been told the truth, but they close to live like hypocrites in total denial.

The remains of a dead nun is presented as “holy” and worthy of adoration and veneration.

It is not shocking, but rather sad. The Bible explains to us that large parts of mankind of the seed of Satan, whom they have made “Lord” of their life.

There are many examples of this worship of wood and stone. Her is yet another.

One of the sleeping wooden statues, is found in The Sacro Monte of Varallo in Italy.

This Roman Catholic idol is made of wood. But the dressed up face of plastic is presented for worship and adoration.

This is written on the site:

 THE BASILICA OF THE ASSUMPTION

  the wooden statue of the sleeping Madonna, one of the oldest of Sacro Monte, and attributed to Gaudenzio Ferrari, and which today is preserved in the crypt, was brought from the church.

Source: sacromontevarallo.eu

Why form a wooden plank to look like a doll, and dress “her” up like a princess for “Church” worship?

Only Satan takes pleasure in such abomination, blasphemy and wickedness.

They crawl, bow and kiss wood and stone

These images from Church of Portobelo in Panama expose the bondage of idolatry.

He bows before, not only one:, but two wooden copies of the false black Messiah.

Faithful Roman Catholic pilgrims crawl on their knees, to face “El Cristo Negro” inside this Roman Catholic Church in Portobelo in Panama. The small statues of the false Messiah are black like ashes.

If these Roman Catholics were willing to obey the Bible, they would never have remained in such bondage. The Holy Spirit would have come and set them free.

Through history, people who have renounced the Papacy, have been badly persecuted. In hundreds of thousands, they were martyred. Beaten and killed by the religious people who refused to obey the truth.

 Exodus 20:4-6
“You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below.  You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments.

Here are some more pictures:

The crawl in front of two idols of El Cristo Negro.

Two boys hold the idols. The pilgrims crawl and bow.

They put their sandals on their hands.

Some people has crawled for quite some distance.

  Isaiah 37:19
They have thrown their gods into the fire and destroyed them, for they were not gods but only wood and stone, fashioned by human hands.

They crawl through the streets, on their way to honor wood and stone.

The crawl into the Roman Catholic Church.

  Jeremiah 2:27
They say to wood, ‘You are my father,’ and to stone, ‘You gave me birth.’ They have turned their backs to me and not their faces; yet when they are in trouble, they say, ‘Come and save us!’

Some carry their idols with them.

Some even carry “god” on their head.

It your have forgotten your “god” at home, you can always buy one.

Daniel 5:4
As they drank the wine, they praised the gods of gold and silver, of bronze, iron, wood and stone.

Finally this man has crawled the whole way. Only a kiss is left.

  Revelation 9:20
The rest of mankind who were not killed by these plagues still did not repent of the work of their hands; they did not stop worshiping demons, and idols of gold, silver, bronze, stone and wood—idols that cannot see or hear or walk.

A faithful Catholic dresses up the false black Messiah, to make him ready for a stroll.

The night has fallen. The crawlers have gone home. Time for carrying the idol on their shoulders.

1 Corinthians 12:2
You know that when you were pagans, somehow or other you were influenced and led astray to mute idols…..

The “Jesus” they crawled towards is not “Lord of Heaven”.  May all of them one day scrap their wooden idols, and enjoy carrying the true Messiah inside their hearts. Amen.

Cardinal: Only the virgin kept the faith

Only the Virgin, tradition tells us, kept the faith and we must think of the terrible suffering of the real death of her son”.

The Austrian Cardinal serve an antichrist in Rome. They are both God mockers in the name of “Jesus”.

These are the words of Cardinal Schönborn of Austria, given to Catholic news agency ‘Zenit”.

ZENIT: Looking at the image of Our Lady of Fatima, you said in the homily: “The whole Church has survived in Mary’s faith.” Can you explain this phrase better?

Cardinal Schönborn: Without faith the Church doesn’t exist and on the night of Holy Saturday all were in darkness because of the apparent failure. Only the Virgin, Tradition tells us, kept the faith and we must think of the terrible suffering of the real death of her son. In this keeping of the faith, the whole Church has survived and will always survive in the faith.

Source: Zenit.

My comment:

The Catholic Church is full of lies, cheating and deception. Blasphemy and perverting of the gospel, from A to Z.

Miriam the mother of Jesus was a virgin when Jesus was born. But after that she had a lot of warm and good sex with her husband.  Miriam the mother of Jesus lived a married life with sex, like all normal married couples.

To brand Miriam as a virgin at the time of the crucifixion is a horrible crime against this Jewess. Because regardless of what the pagan traditions in Rome claim, this woman had a lot of children. Jesus the Messiah had lot of siblings. A fully and normal child, raised in a huge Jewish family.

 Mark 6:3
Isn’t this the carpenter? Isn’t this Mary’s son and the brother of James, Joseph, Judas and Simon? Aren’t his sisters here with us?” And they took offense at him.

John 7:3
Jesus’ brothers said to him, “You ought to leave here and go to Judea, so that your disciples may see the miracles you do.

John 7:5
For even his own brothers did not believe in him.

The Pope, his cardinals and bishops makes a mockery out of the Bible. Leave this Babylonian religion, and join true Christians who believe in and obey the Scriptures. Let the Holy Spirit give light to your life, and full you with freedom from all false religions.

Since the Roman Catholic “ever virgin” is a fiction, so is her son. Dangerous Copycats from the demonic realm. Do not acknowledge nor support this falsehood.

“Holy skeleton” of the day

This corpse is kept for display in an Orthodox Church in Romania.

The dead body of this Orthodox priest have been robbed from the grave, to be kept for display.

 Ilie Lacatusu of Romania (priest) [12/8/1909-7/22/1983] – incorrupt body emits odor of chrism; prophesied the his wife would die 15 years after him.

My comment:

I know it is cold in the winters in Romania. That must be the explanation why the Orthodox clergy has put a topphy on the head of this corpse.  That this skeleton is not “incorrupt” is obvious for all who do not want to feel the odor…

Only 27 years have passed since this priest died. May the grave looters put this skeleton back in the grave ASP.

Bible study # 50: Catholics in Ireland worship bones and a “holy head”

The bones of St. Oliver is carried on the shoulders of Catholics in Ireland on 1st of July. The head of the saint is kept at the altar of the church at Drogheda.

Irish men parade the “Holy bones” of “saint Oliver” on their shoulders. The man on the left has a skull on his chest.

The “preserved” head of “St.Oliver Plunkett” is kept at the altar in St Peter’s, Church in Drogheda in Ireland.

The sight of an altar with a skull in its center is another example of the pagan practice of Roman Catholics worshiping the dead. Because if an altar in a Church is not meant to be the center of worship, there is no such place.

A headless saint in Ireland, adored with candled at the alter of St. Peters Church.

The Catholic faithful do come in front to this altar, and light candles to adore and venerate the skull.

St. Oliver is a former Archbishop

Who is Oliver Plunkett?

He was the Roman Catholic Archbishop of Armagh in Ireland, and the primate of all Ireland. He lived from 1st of November 1625, to 1st of July 1681. Plunkett was beatified in 1920 and canonised in 1975, the first new Irish saint for almost seven hundred years.

Lets read from the official Catholic website:

Oliver Plunkett was beatified in 1920 and canonized in 1975. In 1979, Pope John Paul II venerated the relic of St Oliver Plunkett during the Drogheda part of his Papal visit to Ireland.

The Feast of St Oliver Plunkett occurs annually on the anniversary of his death, 1st July. Special celebrations are held each year on this date in Drogheda. A procession of the Saint’s relic is made from Our Lady of Lourdes Church, Hardman’s Gardens to the Church of St Peter, West Street. A Mass in honor of St Oliver Plunkett is held in St Peter’s Church on the last Friday of each month at 7.30 pm.

Link to the website of the parade with photo of the festival made to honor this saint.

The head of Oliver seen at the center, just in front of the altar.

The Church in Ireland who keep a headless saint in the center.

The night vision of a skull at the alter of a place of worship

St. Peter’s Church in Drogheda in Ireland.

What does the Bible say in regards to lightening of candles in front of skulls, and claimed to be Christians who carries human remains and bones on their shoulders?

Deuteronomy 4:16
so that you do not become corrupt and make for yourselves an idol, an image of any shape, whether formed like a man or a woman.

Catholics carrying the bones of a claimed to be holy bishop Oliver on their shoulders.

The bones of Oliver is carried into the Church to be adored and venerated.

Isaiah 19:3
The Egyptians will lose heart, and I will bring their plans to nothing; they will consult the idols and the spirits of the dead, the mediums and the spiritists.

Isaiah 8:18-21
Here am I, and the children the LORD has given me. We are signs and symbols in Israel from the LORD Almighty, who dwells on Mount Zion.
When men tell you to consult mediums and spiritists, who whisper and mutter, should not a people inquire of their God? Why consult the dead on behalf of the living? To the law and to the testimony! If they do not speak according to this word, they have no light of dawn. Distressed and hungry, they will roam through the land; when they are famished, they will become enraged and, looking upward, will curse their king and their God.

This head of Oliver can not speak, neither save it self if it falls down.

Romans 1:24-26

Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen.

What do the Catholic leadership say about the head at this altar?

Canon Jim Carrol worshiped in front of the Head.

This is a statement of Canon Jim Carroll, recorded on youtube.com.

Many times I came here as a youngster,  during times of youthful trauma, I came here to the head of Oliver to kneel humbly and to pray.

Ezekiel 43:9
Now let them put away from me their prostitution and the lifeless idols of their kings, and I will live among them forever.

1 Peter 4:3
For you have spent enough time in the past doing what pagans choose to do—living in debauchery, lust, drunkenness, orgies, carousing and detestable idolatry.
