Pride and blasphemy against God the Father and Jesus Christ is a hallmark of the Roman Catholic Church. The earthly adversary in Christian garb. The large following of the “Mother of all Particular Churches” is impressive but not surprising.

Arrogance combined with deceit and lies
The Roman Catholic Church sees itself as the “representative of God”, “representative of Christ” and “representative of the Son of God”, depending on their mood. The highly blasphemous institution justifies its arrogance with a “God-given mission” by the Apostle Peter. Even their self-defined apostolicity is based on a wrong interpretation of a Bible verse. Matthew 16:18:
“And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.”
A look at the basic Greek text reveals the fraud
The “clerics”, or rather “Gnostics” of Rome related the rock to the name of Peter and in view of the centuries-long campaign of robbery, persecution, torture and murder of this church, this is a more fatal lie than the “Donation of Constantine”. Jesus made a subtle but crucial distinction in the mentions of “Peter” and “rock.”
The difference becomes clear when you look at the basic text of the New Testament. The name Peter comes from “Petros (πετρος)” and this means “stone, boulder”. For “rock” the basic text says “Petra (πετρα)” and this means “rock, stone foundation”. So Jesus meant nothing other than that Peter is a part of this rock, but not that Peter is this rock. One can directly assume that when Jesus Christ spoke, he looked at Peter and pointed his finger at the rock, but Jesus Christ meant himself. Jesus Christ is the rock of the church.
It is in any case already adventurous to call Peter the first pope. Not even the beginning of a syllable can be found in the Bible. There was not even a hierarchy in the first church, all church members were on an equal footing with one another.
So it is not surprising that Peter has stuck in people’s minds to this day as the “rock” (in the sense of foundation), although he is “only” a piece of it, i.e. a stone. With this error, the Church of Rome claims to have the “birthright” of the successorship of Peter and thus to represent the “guiding body” of the Church in the self-understanding of its hierarchy. Jesus Christ commissioned Peter to take over the leadership of the church (John 21:17), but He did not give him legislative authority. The Church is the community itself, with leadership but without hierarchy like the Catholic Church up to the legislative Pope. The foundation of the real church is Jesus Christ himself, and Peter was or is a part of that. Thus, the apostolicity of the Roman Church is not a birthright, but a real birth defect.
Papal pride was already known to Paul
Paul already knew what was to come for humanity. The “little horn” described in Daniel 7 began to grow out of the beast describing the Roman Empire. It was only Rome, still alive and including the emperor, that held back the “outlaw”. But this authority ended with the departure of the last emperor of Western Rome, Romulus Augustulus, in 476 AD. This was followed by the steep rise of the “Bishop of Rome” and culminated in totalitarian political and religious power from 538 AD. As early as 508 AD. Pope Symmachus, with the help of allies, ensured the destruction of the Heruli people because they resisted papal authority. This fate also befell the Vandals and the Ostrogoths.
2 Thessalonians 2:6-9:
“And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,”
An excerpt of the papacy’s self-aggrandizement
The following statements are only a tiny excerpt of what popes and other people in charge of the cath. church were made. But the individual passages are already sufficient to show the true character of the servant of the “dragon (Rev. 13)” dressed in Christian garb.
Pope Innocent III.
“ca. 1200”
“The Pope takes the place of the true God in this world“
Pope Boniface VIII
Bull “unam sanctam“, 1302
“Porro subesse Romano Pontifici omni humanae creaturae declaramus, dicimus, definimus et pronunciamus omnino esse de necessitate salutis.”
“Furthermore, we declare, say, define and proclaim that under the Roman Pope every human creature is absolutely necessary to salvation.“
“In hac ejusque potestate duos esse gladios, spiritualem videlicet et temporalem, evangelicis dictis instruimur. Nam dicentibus Apostolis: Ecce gladii duo hic [Luc. 22:38], in ecclesia scilicet, cum apostoli loquerentur, non respondit Dominus, nimis esse, sed satis. Certe qui in potestate Petri temporalem gladium esse negat, male verbum attendit Domini proferentis: Converte gladium tuum in vaginam. [Matth. 26:52.] Uterque ergo est in potestate ecclesiae, spiritualis scilicet gladius et materialis. “
“We are taught by the Gospels that in this and her power there are two swords, namely the spiritual and the temporal. For when they said to the apostles: Look here two swords [Luke 22:38], that is, in the congregation, when the apostles spoke, the Lord did not answer that it was too much, but that it was enough. Surely, to deny that there is a worldly sword in Peter’s power is to disregard the words of the Lord: Put your sword in its scabbard. [Matthew 26:52.] Both are therefore in the power of the church, that is, the spiritual sword and the material.“
With this arbitrary interpretation, the papacy claims nothing less than dominion over the whole spiritual and material world. The Catholic defines itself for this. Church itself as an absolutely necessary salvation for all people.
Pope Gregory IX
“Decretales Gregorii”
“The Pope does not assume the position of a mere man, but that of the true God.“
Pope Leo XIII.
“Praeclara Gratulationis Puplicae – 1894”
“But since We hold upon this earth the place of God Almighty“
Pope is “Jesus Christ himself”
The Church of Rome, it is understood, does not want to accept such accusations. If pride becomes too intrusive, it needs to be put into perspective. Sidney F. Smith, a Jesuit, sought to fend off accusations of “papal appropriation of his own divinity.” In “Puplications of the Catholic Truth Society”, 1900, Volume 29, on page 10 of his article “Does the Pope Claim to be God?”, Smith quotes a statement in “The Catholique National”, July 13, 1895:
“The Pope is not only the representative of Jesus Christ, buth he is Jesus Christ Himself hidden under the veil of flesh.“
The Jesuit Smith does not deny this at this point, but rather reminds us of the unconditional obedience given to the Pope. When the Pope speaks, “it is like this”:
“Does the Pope speak. It is Jesus Christ who speaks. Does the Pope accord a favour or pronnounce an anathema? It is Jesus Christ who pronounces the anathema or accords the favour. So that when the Pope speaks, we have no business to examine-we have only to obey. We have no right to criticize his decisions or discuss his commands. Therefore every one who would war the crown ought to submit himself to Divine Right.“
Pious Prince Constantine – Pope God
Continuing the contribution of Sidney F. Smith in his essay in “Puplications of the Catholic Truth Society”, 1900, Volume 29, on page 18, a “subtle inner anger” of the Jesuit can be perceived. The tone is becoming harsher against those who dare to question the Pope’s authority.
“Certainly in this arrogant vanity scarcely any of all these (pagan sovereigns) was ever comparable to the Pope. Pope Nicolas saith: ‘Constat summum Pontificem a pio Principe .. Deum appellatum (It is well-known that the Pope of the godly prince Constantine was called God)’. Likewise the Pope was well content to suffer one of his parasites to say unto him in the late Council of Lateran: Tu es alter Deus in terris (Thou art another God on earth). Likewise Cardillus the Spaniard, in defence of the Pope’s late chapter at Trident, oftentimes calleth the Pope a Terrenus Deus (an earthly God).“
“Holy” Alphonsus Liguori
Alphonsus Maria Liguori (September 27, 1696 – August 1, 1787, Italy) was not some humble monk in the wilderness, but a bishop, jurist, moral theologian, and founder of the Redemptorist order. He was canonized in 1839 and became a Doctor of the Catholic Church in 1872. church raised.
Dignity and duties of the priest, P.26
“Jesus has died to institute the priesthood. It was not necessary for the Redeemer to die in order to save the world; a drop of his blood, a single tear, or prayer, was sufficient to procure salvation for all; […] But to institute the priesthood, the death of Jesus Christ has been necessary“
This blasphemy weighs particularly heavily. In the understanding of the Catholic Church, Jesus Christ died in order to introduce the Catholic priesthood. In truth, Jesus Christ Himself became the High Priest after His resurrection and ascension. The regularly held Mass (Eucharist) of this church symbolizes the repeated killing of Jesus and also keeps Him “dead” by usurping His priesthood. Who but Satan himself can have the greatest interest in Jesus Christ never rising again after his one-time(!) sacrifice?
Dignity and duties of the priest, P.27
“Weith regard to the mystic body of Christ, that is, all the faithful, the priest has the power of the keys, or the power of delivering sinners from hell, of making them worthy of paradise, and of changing them from the slaves of Satan into the children of God. And God himself is obliged to abide by the judgment of his priests, and either not to pardon or to pardon, according as they refuse or give absolution, provided the penitent is capable of it.“
“Pater” John A. O’ Brien
“Father” John Anthony O’Brien (January 20, 1893 – April 18, 1980) was an influential, so-called progressive Catholic scholar in the USA. He was a writer, pamphleteer and author of around 40 books.
One of his books was the extensive guide “The Faith of Millions – The Credentials of the Catholic Religion” from 1938. With this book O’Brien specifically addressed all non-Catholics. It even became a bestseller. In the 6th edition of this book, on page 270, O’Brien describes the “power” of the priest and the process at the “Holy Mass” (Eucharist).
The Faith of Millions, 6. Edition, Page 270
“When the priest pronounces the tremendous words of consecration, he reaches up into the heavens, brings Christ down from His throne, and places Him upon our altar to be offered up again as the victim for the sins of man. It is a power greater than that of monarchs and emporers. It is greater than that of saints and angels, greater than that of Seraphim and Cherubim. Indeed it is greater even than the power of the Virgin Mary. For, while the Blessed Virgin was the human agenc by which Christ became incarnate a single time, the priest brings Christ down from Heaven, and renders Him present on our altar as the eternal Victim for the sins of man – not once but a thousand times! The priest speaks and lo! Christ, the eternal and omnipotent God, bows His head in humble obedience to the priest’s command.“
The catholic Church doesn’t even hide it
It is hardly or not at all understandable why so many people follow the dogmas of the Catholic Church. The Church, which are in complete contradiction to the gospel, to follow them and also “celebrate devoutly”. This church also bluntly flaunts its position as the opponent of our Creator God, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Why do you think the Roman Church tried to stop the translation and distribution of the Bible?
The truth might come out. Of course, the destruction of the truth did not succeed. Then just modify people’s minds. The results are the Bible rendered implausible, the theses of so-called theologians and entertainment addicts constantly sprinkled with junk topics. The truth is lying around openly a million times, but hardly anyone cares anymore.
Egyptian Babylonian occult rite
A description wouldn’t really be necessary. It is about the “revered host”, the bread which, after consumption, is supposed to transform itself into the body of Christ, at least according to the occult thesis. If priests tell it like that, then it must be true, right? Then why care about the winged animals (e.g. lion with wings is Babylon) on the cross, which also adorns the robes of the bishops and the pope and was already used by the Horus priests? It is nothing other than the worship of a sun god, whether called Ra, Reherakti, Horus, Baal, or whatever else.
Horus symbols shown openly
Pope John Paul II also liked to show himself with the Babylonian cross on his robe and of course his “trademark”, the broken (curved) cross. Such open declarations about the actual worship of the “sun god Horus” and of whatever kind are generally taken for granted and are not even questioned. “It has always been so” and “tradition outweighs the gospel”.
The well-known mother-child image
A Catholic specialty is the complete overbearing of Mother Mary. The “Immaculate” (without sin) holds the little Jesus child in her arms. An image that is already identical in connection with Isis, Osiris and Horus. Mary and so-called “saints” always have a disk behind their heads. Nothing more than once again the symbol of the “sun god” to be worshiped. Female angels also negate what the Bible says. However, there is neither a “Gabriela” nor a “Michaela”, but a Gabriel and a Michael. Little fat children’s angels can also be found on frescoes of ancient Babylon.
The first (real) reformers recognized it.
This blasphemy will come to an abrupt end
The Bible leaves no doubt that this excessive arrogance will not last forever. The blasphemer, abomination of the earth, son of perdition, man of sin will come to an abrupt end together with the “false prophet” (USA as Rome’s henchman and fallen Protestant churches).
Revelation 18:2-3:
“And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.”
Revelation 18:8,21:
“Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her.”
“And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all.”
