Ceremony has replaced the need for change, and Catholic confession has replaced the need for conversion. Catholicism proclaims a prestigious membership through baptism. Catholicism has a broad brush of education for First Communion and through the Sacrament of Reconciliation (Penance of Confession) for the forgiveness of sin and not at the expense of the blood of the crowned Christ. Catholicism is all activity without spirituality. Catholicism is nothing but Samson shaking himself powerless, bound by the Philistines and a lot of dead, shaky, spiritual movement because the Lord had departed from him: a spiritually dead and deceased man, grinding grain at the mill. When the anointing comes upon you, people know it; when the anointing leaves you, not even you will know it.

We have ceremony without conversion. We have counterfeit without consecration. We have ritual without righteousness. We have hype without holiness. We have shout without substance. We have feelings without fact. We have therapy without theology. We have secular without sacred. We have self without a Savior. We have good feelings without the God of glory. We have a Christianity without Christ. We have a Holy Spirit without holiness. We have Hollywood theatrics without Holy Spirit anointing.

Most people are confused about the character of Roman Catholicism, which is a complete misrepresentation of the true Gospel of Jesus Christ. This will surely offend those who are devout Catholics. Many people could see this as unkind and unloving, but nothing is more loving than the truth. To let someone perish in a false system isn't loving at all. To rescue people from a damning and false religion is the most loving thing anyone can do. Catholicism is a man-made, pagan, counterfeit Christian religion. Get out now! There are some genuine followers of Christ within Roman Catholicism, no doubt, but they certainly do not represent the majority.

Jesus did not come to start a tear-jerking pagan religion but to restore a Father-and-son relationship. Jesus Christ did not come to the earth to start thirty-three thousand fractured religious franchises fighting over religious turfs. A fragmented franchise is not a church but a pack of religious pugs fighting, feuding, and fussing with each other. God couldn't care less what religious franchise you are in. He cares if you know Jesus Christ; and that you are born again and washed clean because of the blood atonement of the Champion of Calvary.

If the Son of God died for all of us, why is there all this complaining among each denomination? The blood is not a respecter of persons and does not discriminate between denominations. The blood of Jesus is what redeems our unity; just as a person's blood circulates every twenty-three seconds, the blood holds everything together. If the blood stops flowing through the church of Jesus Christ, the church will perish because it is nothing more than a religious country club with religious ceremonies.
