Roman Catholics often ask those Protestants who left Catholicism why we believe Rome teaches a different gospel. The issue is not that Catholics say nothing true. The issue is that Rome has bound the conscience of Christians to doctrines and practices that go beyond Scripture, distort the finished work of Christ, and obscure the peace and assurance of the gospel.
Here are some of the Roman Catholic teachings most Protestants reject as false:
The Assumption of Mary.
The Immaculate Conception of Mary.
Mary as Queen of Heaven.
Mary as Mediatrix or Co-Redemptrix in any meaningful sense.
Prayer to Mary and the saints.
The veneration of relics.
The use of images in devotion in ways that function like religious invocation.
Papal infallibility.
The infallibility of the Roman Magisterium.
The claim that Rome is the one true Church in a way that excludes faithful Protestant churches.
The claim that the pope is the visible head of the whole Church.
The claim that bishops in communion with Rome possess unique apostolic succession necessary for the fullness of the Church.
The sacrificial understanding of the Mass.
The idea that priests have power to make Christ substantially present on the altar at every Mass.
Transubstantiation.
Eucharistic adoration.
The withholding of the cup from the laity as a historical practice.
The claim that baptism regenerates ex opere operato.
The sacrament of penance as necessary for restoration after mortal sin.
Priestly absolution as a judicial act that remits sin.
The distinction between mortal and venial sin as Rome defines it.
Purgatory.
Indulgences.
The treasury of merit.
The application of the merits of Mary and the saints to other believers.
The idea that justification includes infused righteousness as the ground of acceptance before God.
The denial of justification by faith alone.
The denial that the imputed righteousness of Christ is sufficient for the believer’s standing before God.
The claim that final justification is based, in part, on Spirit-wrought works as the believer’s righteousness before God.
The idea that grace can be lost and regained through the sacramental system.
The claim that Scripture and unwritten tradition together form one binding deposit interpreted infallibly by Rome.
The claim that the Apocrypha belongs to the Old Testament canon.
The dogmatic authority of later Marian doctrines that are absent from Scripture.
The claim that the Roman Church can define dogma that all Christians must believe even when that doctrine lacks clear biblical warrant.
This is why I remain Protestant. The Reformation was not a rebellion against grace. It was a recovery of grace. It was not a rejection of the Church. It was a call for the Church to submit again to the Word of God that teaches: Christ alone is the mediator; Scripture alone is the final authority; Grace alone saves; Faith alone receives Christ, and God alone receives the glory.

We want our country back . Millions are in attendance

The Supreme Court of the United States has now joined the Supreme Court of Virginia in choosing to nullify an election and the votes of more than three million Virginians.
These Virginians made their voices heard — casting their ballots in good faith to push back against a President who said he’s “entitled” to more seats in Congress before voters go to the polls.
As Governor, I will make sure voters know when and how to cast their votes this year. Because our votes are how we choose the representation we deserve.

@IMACedarWaxwing @DivinelyDesined Your idea of evolution is magic. You must have a lot of faith in the impossible.
English

@DivinelyDesined Everytime a creationist looks at the complexity of life, they refuse to investigate or understand and immediately jump to magic.

This is mind ATP Synthase
The energy pump that powers every cell in every lifeform on Earth, slowed down by over 1,000x.
Without ATP Synthase, life cannot exist.
This little nano-machine is made up of a minimum of 8 distinct proteins, all designed perfectly to fit together and operate in a coordinated system that takes in ADP and turns it into ATP, which the cell uses to power metabolic processes.
It's designed to only allow certain molecules in & out.
Any mistakes, and it could flood the cell with toxic waste in a matter of seconds, killing everything.
Each protein building block must fit perfectly together, much like all the pieces inside your phone.
Without all the proteins fit & working together from the start, ATP Synthase cannot function, and Life cannot exist.
But making things even more complex, ATP Synthase doesn't operate alone.
It's located inside the cell membrane, where it actively works with other molecules to ensure the ATP it creates gets to the right place.
It's a whole integrated network of energy movement within each cell, without which, Life could not exist.
All these pieces must exist together, from the beginning, for Life to be possible.
Which means it can't arise piece by piece through evolution - because the very process of evolution requires the whole system.
Life requires this system in order to produce the energy it needs to replicate & evolve - but replication & evolution is supposed to have created it.
You can't have one without the other.
There are no simpler versions - it's literally all or nothing.
This is clear evidence of an intelligently designed system.
What more evidence do you need?

🚨 Pope Leo XIV just declared the Iran War unjust.
Called it a war crime.
Said it is “not solving anything.”
Then told Americans directly: call Congress. End this war.
The same Pope Trump called weak on crime.
The same Pope Trump fabricated a nuclear quote from.
The same Pope whose brother received a bomb threat after Trump attacked him.
The same Pope Speaker Johnson lectured on theology.
1.4 billion Catholics heard their leader call this war a crime.

@sola_chad LDS builds a worldwide church empire based on the lie told by the serpent to Eve in the Garden of Eden, you can be as God. Gen 3:5 Shameless.

@sola_chad Started by Joseph Smith who encountered a "resurrected being surrounded with really bright light".
Funny, 2 Corinthians 11:14 tells us that Satan masquerades as an angel of Light.
English

@LoganMPierce1 @sola_chad In other words, an angel of light (demon). That same demon is still worshipped by Mormons everywhere.

@BishopJaxi would you like me to put up the thousands of pictures of pedophile priests? I mean fair is fair. and there are thousands upon thousands

@BishopJaxi Don't make me mention the Catholic Inquisition that murdered Christians for hundreds of years. Your church is evil.

@realmikolson The KJV was NOT “rewritten” nor “books removed”. The KJV was translated into English from an already existing bible in a different language. This is historical revisionism for which has been debunked by many scholars and textual criticisms comparing the scriptures to the original

@DrShayPhD Yes, Grok believes everything that the Catholic Church says. You have to shame it into using other sources.
