Popery: Its Character And Its Crimes – Part II. Popery A Moral Pestilence. Chapter VII. The Priest in the Place of God

James Japan - Biblical truth revealed & false end-time doctrines exposed Posted on by  

We have already considered those doctrines and practices which constitute the chief elements in the Romish pestilence. There still remains, however, another feature of Popery equally destructive, which runs through the whole system, viz., the awful extent to which the priest usurps the place of God! or in the figurative language of prophecy, “sitteth in the Temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.” (2 Thess. ii. 4.)

The Council of Carthage decreed: “That no one, in praying, shall address his prayers to any one except God the Father.” Such a decree was felt to be most necessary. For, at that time, few men addressed their prayers to God. They preferred to entreat some saint to intercede with God for them.

“It is the bounden duty of every Christian to pray against Antichrist, and as to what Antichrist is no sane man ought to raise a question. If it be not the popery in the Church of Rome there is nothing in the world that can be called by that name.” – Spurgeon

Athor, Ashtoreth, or Astarte, according to Wilkinson, was an apotheosed or deified heroine, an Assyrian queen who had conquered all Asia and Egypt. She was also called Cybelé, Aphrodité, Semiramis, and Isis. Her son was Assarac, and was also named Horus the younger, Tammuz, Dumuzi (Ezek. viii. 14), Adonis, Apollo, and Bacchus “the Lamented,” from the Phoenician bakkah, to weep.

The worship of any creature, however good or great, must of necessity be a sin of the deepest dye. From Revelation we know that the Most High is infinitely Great, and Good, and Glorious. That He alone, of all beings, owes his existence to none.

The Battle over the Identity of the Catholic Church at the Time of the Reformation and Afterwards (AD 1517-1820)

James Japan - Biblical truth revealed & false end-time doctrines exposed Posted on by  

One of the greatest proofs of the almost total ignorance of a knowledge of church history is the way the word catholic is used today not only by the secular news media, not only by the Papal Dominion, not only by the ecumenical “non-catholics,” but even by those who purport to be defending the truth and contending for the faith. There is nothing that demonstrates the victory of the Papal Dominion in America today more than the use of the word “catholic” to describe the religion of the Papacy.

As the Papacy grew, it sought more and more power, not just in the church but also in the state. As it became more embroiled in matters of the State and Empire, it was affected by the evils and wickedness of the State and Empire. This entanglement with State and Empire led the church into the Dark Ages.

James Japan - Biblical truth revealed & false end-time doctrines exposed Posted on by  

The indulgences of the Romish church, as at first practised, were the natural result of that unscriptural system of penance which had prevailed for many centuries throughout the whole visible church. Originally, works of penance consisted in certain public signs of repentance, which the church required before she received back those individuals who had been excluded for gross offences.

The Sower and the Virgin – Historical Retrospect.—Second Period.

James Japan - Biblical truth revealed & false end-time doctrines exposed Posted on by  

Early Church fathers and historical texts from the fourth century demonstrate that no special religious honor or worship was paid to the Virgin Mary, as early writers routinely attributed human faults and original sin to her. Instead, the period’s theologians universally affirmed that Jesus Christ alone was born without sin and entitled to divine adoration, rejecting the invocation of saints and the concept of an Immaculate Conception.

THERE is, as we have seen, not the slightest hint, throughout the Holy Scriptures, about prayers to the Virgin Mary or to saints. Nor, for 360 years after Christ, was a single word said or written in favor of such a practice. The Fathers of the first six centuries never, in the least degree, advocated a worship of the Virgin Mary or saints.
