LET ME GIVE YOU JUST 8 1. Praying to Mary and the Saints Practice: Asking Mary and saints to intercede in prayer Bible 👉1 Timothy 2:5 — One mediator between God and man (Jesus) Deuteronomy 18:10–12 — forbids contacting the dead 2. Confession to a Priest Practice: Confessing sins to a priest for absolution Bible👉1 John 1:9 — confess sins to God Christ alone can forgive sin and Him alone we should confess to. 3. The Pope as Supreme Head of the Church. Practice: The Pope is the visible head of the Church Bible 👉Colossians 1:18 — Christ is the head of the Church No verse establishes a continuing office with universal authority The Bible does not establish a single human leader over all Christians. 4. Veneration of Images/Statues Practice: Bowing, kneeling, or praying before statues/icons Bible 👉 Exodus 20:4. "You shall not make for yourself a carved image—any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; 5. you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me, Any religious bowing before images violates the commandment. 5. Purgatory Practice: A temporary place of purification after death Bible 👉Hebrews 9:27. And as it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment, after death comes judgement. The Bible does not teach a middle state after death. 6. Indulgences Practice: Reduction of punishment for sin Bible 👉Ephesians 2:8–9 — salvation by grace, not works. You cannot reduce punishment for sin through actions and you don't pay money for it. Salvation belongs to Christ alone. 7.

Pope as “Vicar of Christ” Practice: The Pope acts as Christ’s representative on earth Bible 👉John 14:16. And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever The Bible presents the Holy Spirit as Christ’s representative—not a human leader.

PSA: 1) The "Pope" or even a description of that role is not in the Bible. 2) The word "Pope" wasn't coined until ~3rd century, and did not become associated with the Bishop of Rome until between the 4th and 6th centuries. 3) The main Bible passage used to support the idea of a Pope (Matthew 16:13-20) simply doesn't say what many think it does. Simon Peter confesses to Jesus that, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God." Jesus responds, "Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah! For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven. And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in haven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in haven." Couple things to unpack here. Jesus says, "...ON THIS ROCK I will build my church..." He doesn't say, "On YOU, PETER THE ROCK, I will build my church..." "This rock" is not a person. "This rock" is the confession that Peter had made a moment prior about Jesus being "The Christ, the Son of the living God." THAT is the ROCK upon which Jesus builds his church, the confession of him as savior, Christ, and God. And, after all, doesn't that make sense? The word we translate as church is from the Greek word, "ecclesia," which essentially means "gathering" or "assembly." Gathering or assembly of whom? It's the gathering or assembly of the followers of Christ, and who are the followers of Christ? They are those who confess that Jesus Christ is Lord and Savior, the Son of God! When we simply look carefully at what Jesus said, we see it fits clearly with that which we know to be true! Ok, but you might ask, "What about that part about binding on earth, and loosing on earth, and being bound up or loosed in haven and hell, etc.? What about that???" I'm glad you asked. Let's look a few chapters later at Matthew 18:15-20. Jesus explains what to do when your brother (as in another member of the church) sins against you. He explains the process to go through, but look at what he says in verses 17 through 20: "If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church. And if he refuses to listen even to the church, let him be to you as a Gentile and a tax collector. Truly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. Again I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them." Is Jesus saying that everyone who works through an issue of forgiveness with a brother in the church is the Pope? Is he giving them some kind of Papal authority? Is he saying that everything they say is now on par with scripture? No! Both in chapter 16 and chapter 18 Jesus is helping his followers to understand that they have significant authority as believers and followers of Christ. By sharing the gospel with others they are sharing the most valuable thing possible with others (salvation and connection with God), and by casting those out of the church who should be cast out, they are withholding connection with God through his body (the church). This is great authority indeed. But it doesn't create or necessitate a Pope. 4) The doctrine of Ex Cathedra, in which the Pope "speaks for God," was not a formal doctrine of the Catholic Church until 1870. Certainly the idea existed prior to that, but considering the church went over 1,800 years without this doctrine, is notable. 5) There's nothing Biblical about the primacy of Rome. If there was a "Capitol" of the church in the New Testament, it was Jerusalem. Rome didn't become the center of gravity of the Catholic Church until Emperor Constantine's conversion in AD 312. Whether Constantine's conversion was genuine or not, the truth is that after 312 the church's power was often as much (or more) political than anything else. The Church being ROMAN Catholic is a reflection of political power, not a Holy mandate from God. When you read revelation, and see that God will establish his Kingdom in FULL on earth in the future, you see that it will be in Jerusalem, NOT Rome. That's some food for thought.

Hey @grok, how many times is the Pope mentioned in the bible?

Exactly

Jesus wasn’t just a good man, teacher, or prophet. He is God in the flesh, the true Messiah, and the Savior of humanity.

Wrong. Christ is King over all rulers and authorities, past present and future.

Genghis khan don’t have nothing on the Lord Jesus Christ 🙏🏻 all praise to the King of Kings 🙌

No Brasil, qualquer elogio que se faça a um cidadão é interpretado como adesão ao grupo político dele; e qualquer crítica, como aliança com o partido oposto. É um país de idiotas superpolitizados.

@ggreenwald Not quite yet, but it’s coming. Why pick fights with me? So silly.

@augustuslopes com todo respeito, mas este twt é bem razo Cristo o Senhor dos senhores pode atrair a todos como quiser, deixe que venham, quem é o autor e consumador da fé é Ele, lembra que está escrito: deixem que pregue não os empeçais? deixe que venham, todos têm seus interesses. Ele molda.

Parem de vir a Cristo para subir na vida. O símbolo do Cristianismo é uma cruz e não uma escada.

MEME FACT CHECKED. I fixed it: Crusaders = Catholics who liberated other Catholics enslaved or tortured by Muslim invaders. Stopped the invasion of Europe, then ceased the crusades. Jihad started without provocation and has never stopped. Inquisitors = Catholics who persecuted Jews and Protestant Christians. Both found no freedom to worship which was the main impetus for Protestant Christian migration across the Atlantic to the New World. Though the Spanish had dreams of gold, North America was founded by Christians pursuing religious freedom from Catholic Inquisitors and dogma. Nazis = National Socialists, persecuted both Jews and Christians. Attempted to infiltrate and usurp the church but Christians resisted them and were killed along with the Jews they often hid in their homes. The Dachau concentration camp had a dedicated “Priest Barracks” where over 2,700 clergy were held; about 1,034 died. Nazis mocked the Bible, arrested and executed Christians like Dietrich Bonhoeffer (killed in 1945 for criticizing Hitler). Socialism is the cancer. KKK = founded in 1865 in Pulaski, Tennessee, by six former Confederate veterans, all of whom were Democrats. The KKK was founded by defeated southern Democrats as a resistance movement to the Republican-led winners of the Civil War. Christians provided the moral justification for ending slavery. Christians put their lives on the line for the abolition movement. The fact that some Democrats called themselves Christians (like they do today for political points) was tangential to the fact that they were 100% Democrats. Nathan Bedford Forrest, a prominent Democrat and former Confederate general, became the first Grand Wizard. (If that was not a big enough clue the meme is false! No Christian believes in being a Wizard.) Numerous modern Democrat politicians, including U.S. Senators like Robert Byrd and governors, were Klan members or beneficiaries of its support. MAGA = Christians who voted according to Biblical values for a pro-life, pro-Christian, pro-Israel President, the tough on crime commander-in-chief who welcomes only legal migrants and terminated drug lords, released the Epstein files and the liberator of Venezuela and Iran. Make America GODLY Again. It’s a wonder what a little education will do for the soul. People who post such memes have likely been hurt by their fathers and can’t get over transference. They can’t be educated as their minds are not capable of distinguishing between true and fake Christians (subtlety is not their gift), but they can be healed by admitting they’re broken and rotten. Jesus died for their sins and He will forgive and save the humble sinner who cry to be set free from lies.

Brasileira homenageia Nossa Senhora Aparecida no Miss Universo 2025. Em publicação nas redes sociais, a modelo falou sobre o simbolismo da escolha: “Neste palco, eu não visto apenas um traje: eu visto a história, a fé e a identidade de um povo.” Ela acrescentou que cada elemento do figurino homenageia a devoção a Nossa Senhora Aparecida, cuja presença, segundo ela, atravessa gerações e representa “resistência, esperança e proteção”.
