Should A Protestant Attend The Mass?
Series The History of the Papacy
Seated around Pope John Paul II's coffin (topped with a crucifix and a 'M' for Mary) were:
• 160 cardinals, arrayed in scarlet and purple robes–the unmistakable colours of the Harlot Church of revealed prophecy (Revelation 17&18);
• and, around them, 5 Kings, 6 Queens, 70 Presidents and Prime Ministers, together with representatives of the world's major religions–an international, multi-faith amalgam (cf. Revelation 17:2). Sadly, the Prime Minister of Britain, plus three US Presidents, were among them!
The centrepiece of this 3-hour funeral service was the Mass.
In this message, the 'heart' of the Roman Catholic system is dissected:
- THE ELEMENTS IN THE MASS.
Quotes from RC documents and authorities (including the present Pope, Benedict XVI) are used to show how the Mass is viewed as a miraculous, repetitive sacrifice, without which our Lord's sacrifice on Calvary is of no value!
- THE EFFECTS OF THE MASS.
It: (a) Dishonours the Sacrifice of the Saviour, representing the worst kind of idolatry and blasphemy;
(b) Denies the Statements of the Scriptures, subtracting from, and adding to, the Word of God;
(c) Discriminates for the Soul of the Successful; in demanding payment for regular masses for the dead, it is a real money-spinner.
- THE EXPEDIENTS CONCERNING THE MASS.
God's Word demands that we (a) Remove from (b) Repudiate and (c) Resist it!
What a pity our leaders are not giving a proper lead on this!
