The Bible Says... |
| Sacrifice: Bloody
If it's the sacrifice of Jesus, it cannot be done in an The victim (Always Jesus Christ. By the way,"host" "For by ONE OFFERING he HATH PERFECTED for ever them that are sanctified." -Heb.10:14 |
| Jesus Sacrificed One Time
(a) According to the Bible, our redemption to put "By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ ONCE FOR ALL." -Heb. 9:26 "When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, IT IS FINISHED:" -John 19:30 (b) This sacrifice is NEVER TO BE REPEATED (c) The Bible specifically states that Christ's death was a ONE TIME EVENT: "So Christ was ONCE offered to bear the sins of many..." -Heb. 9:28 "But this man, after he had offered "For Christ also hath ONCE suffered (d) Jesus Christ does not remain present in the "And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not: I am the first and the last: I am he THAT LIVETH, and was dead; and, behold, I AM ALIVE FOR EVERMORE,"-Rev. 1:17,18 "But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the RIGHT HAND OF GOD;" -Heb.10:12 (e) The work of our redemption is not carried out. Jesus said it is finished. One does not keep working on what has already been accomplished at the cross, the forgiveness of sins. "When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, IT IS "...when he had by himself PURGED our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high." -Heb. 1:3 "So Christ was ONCE OFFERED to bear the sins of many;" -Heb. 9:28 "In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:"-Col. 1:14 "Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ." -Rom. 5:1 "For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly." -Rom. 5:6 "And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement." -Rom. 5:11 |
| Do not worship objects.
This is clearly condoning the worship of an object "I am the LORD: that is my name; and my glory will I not give to another, neither MY PRAISE to GRAVEN IMAGES." -Isa. 42:8 "We ought not to think the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, GRAVEN BY ART..." -Acts 17:29 |
| It's too late for dead people.
(a)The Catholic Catichism states "who have died in Christ but are not yet wholly purified" But this is an abomination. That statement basically says that Christ's blood shed sacrifice is not enough to purify the sinner. But God says it is... (b)Aside, if that person who had died were truly in Christ as the catechism states, then that person knows that he/she is already purified in Christ and forgiven of all sin... The saved Christian knows that... (c) Don't wait to get right with the real Jesus. It's too late once you are dead, for then comes judgment: "And as it is appointed unto men once (d) The eucharist is based on a "tradition of men." The Bible tells us God sent His only begotten Son to be the Saviour of the world. "But AS MANY AS RECEIVED HIM, to them gave he power to There is a difference between "universal provision," (Saviour of the world) and "INDIVIDUAL APPLICATION" (as many as received Him). In other words, Jesus paid the price, but you've got to accept it. |
| Redemption NOT ongoing, but is complete in Jesus.
(a) Again, the Bible says the sacrificial work of If you don't believe this, then you are bound to a (b) Being saved involves no work. No masses to be said, no rosaries, no personal sacrifices, no |
| Jesus lives in heaven.
This flies in the face of Scripture itself: "Howbeit the most High dwelleth not in temples made with hands; as saith the prophet, HEAVEN IS MY THRONE, AND EARTH IS MY FOOTSTOOL; WHAT HOUSE WILL YE BUILD ME? SAITH THE LORD: OR WHAT IS THE PLACE OF MY REST? -Acts 7:48,49 |
| The eucharist is not Jesus.
Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts and creeping things.- Romans 1:22,23 Test the Eucharist. If the Eucharist is to be the "For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, NEITHER WILT THOU SUFFER Has the priest ever left the bread (body of Christ) Please don't be deceived. Believe Jesus died for |
