Matthew 15:8-9 King James Version (KJV) 8 This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me. 9 But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men. Mark 7:7-9 King James Version (KJV) 7 Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men. 8 For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do. 9 And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition. Mark 7:13 13 Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye. There is NOTHING taught in the Bible about praying a Rosary, counting beads, etc. In fact, Jesus condemned vain repetitions, But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking (Matthew 6:7). The Catholic Rosary is largely a prayer to Mary. The Rosary is blasphemy! Though Catholics like to point out that they are not praying to Mary, the 2nd of the ten commandments clearly prohibits and warns us NOT to BOW DOWN to any graven image. God in the 2nd commandment even goes as far as to warn us against bowing down to the likeness of anything in HEAVEN OR EARTH. Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God... -Exodus 20:4,5 Mary worship is a sin! Pope John Paul II is a great Mary lover. In his book Crossing the Threshold of Hope, the Pope testifies that his personal devotion to Mary was developed at Marian sites such as Jasna Gora (home of the Black Madonna) in his homeland of Poland (Crossing the Threshold of Hope, p. 220). The Pope has Totus Tuus (All Yours) embroidered on his papal garments, designating his abandonment to Mary (Crossing the Threshold of Hope, p. 215). After the Pope was shot during an assassination attempt in May 1981, he attributed his subsequent recovery to Mary, and it was at shrines such as Jasna Gora and Fatima that he has expressed his thankfulness to the Queen of Heaven. He prays to Mary daily. This is an abomination unto the Lord. I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images. -Isaiah 42:8 We read in 1st Timothy 2:5, For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus. Jesus condemned recognizing any man as the vicar of God, or as a having special privileges or powers from God. Catholics are taught to believe that the Pope is literally Gods messenger upon the earth. When El Papa speaks, Catholics worldwide hinge on every word, as if God Himself were speaking. The above picture speaks volumes against Catholicism. It should be obvious to the spiritually-minded believer that Satan is conditioning the masses to receive the Antichrist when he comes. It is so strange how the Word of God condemns the Catholic religion in plain Words. It says in Matt 23:9 And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven. , in black and white, even in the Catholic Douay Bible, not to call any man Father. Yet, that is exactly what Catholics call their priests, cardinals, and Bishops. Mark 7:6-13 plainly teaches that we are never to follow the traditions of men. Yet, the Catholic religion is one big conglomerate of traditions fabricated over the centuries. It wasnt until the year 1950 that Pope Pious XII decided to make the Assumption of Mary an official Catholic doctrine, a doctrine not found anywhere in the Bible. Exodus 20:4,5 couldnt be any clearer that even BOWING down to a statue is idolatry. Yet, Catholics foolishly claim that they are not worshipping the statues they are bowing down to. BUT, God forbids us from even bowing to statues. In fact, the Bible is so clear on this matter that the Vatican has even REMOVED the second of the Ten Commandments to deceive you. No wonder 1st Timothy 4:2 states, Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron. Everything that the Catholic Church has taught you is twisted, corrupted, and damnable!!!
