What
is the "Mass"?
The Mass is a blasphemous liturgical ceremony in which the false
"Jesus" of the Roman Catholic Church is sacrificed over and over again for the lost multitudes who believe the lies
taught to them by the false pagan priests of the Whore of
Babylon. I realize that is a pretty serious statement, so
please let me explain...
This is how Wikipedia explains the definition of the
"Mass":
The Council
of Trent
reaffirmed traditional Christian teaching that the
Mass is the same Sacrifice of Calvary
offered in an unbloody manner: "The victim is
one and the same: the same now offers through the
ministry of priests,
who then offered himself on the cross; only the
manner of offering is different. And since in this
divine sacrifice which is celebrated in the Mass, the
same Christ who offered himself once in a bloody
manner on the altar of the cross is contained and
offered in an unbloody manner... this sacrifice is
truly propitiatory" (Doctrina de ss. Missae
sacrificio, c. 2, quoted in Catechism of the Catholic
Church, 1367).
This clearly states that:
1) the sacrifice of
the Mass is believed to be the same
as the sacrifice of Christ on Calvary, and
2)the sacrifice is propitiatory
(which means effectual as a subtitutionary sacrifice for
sinners).
The Catholic Catechism
states:
1367 The sacrifice of Christ and
the sacrifice of the Eucharist are one single
sacrifice: "The victim is one and the same:
the same now offers through the ministry of priests,
who then offered himself on the cross; only the
manner of offering is different." "And
since in this divine sacrifice which is celebrated in
the Mass, the same Christ who offered himself once in
a bloody manner on the altar of the cross is
contained and is offered in an unbloody manner. . .
this sacrifice is truly propitiatory."190
1376
The Council of Trent summarizes the Catholic faith by
declaring: "Because Christ our Redeemer said
that it was truly his body that he was offering under
the species of bread, it has always been the
conviction of the Church of God, and this holy
Council now declares again, that by the consecration
of the bread and wine there takes place a change of
the whole substance of the bread into the substance
of the body of Christ our Lord and of the whole
substance of the wine into the substance of his
blood. This change the holy Catholic Church has
fittingly and properly called
transubstantiation."206
1377
The Eucharistic presence of Christ begins at the
moment of the consecration and endures as long as the
Eucharistic species subsist. Christ is present whole
and entire in each of the species and whole and
entire in each of their parts, in such a way that the
breaking of the bread does not divide Christ.207
1378 Worship of the
Eucharist. In the liturgy of the Mass we express
our faith in the real presence of Christ under the
species of bread and wine by, among other ways,
genuflecting or bowing deeply as a sign of adoration
of the Lord. "The Catholic Church has always
offered and still offers to the sacrament of the
Eucharist the cult of adoration, not only during
Mass, but also outside of it, reserving the
consecrated hosts with the utmost care, exposing them
to the solemn veneration of the faithful, and
carrying them in procession."208
Allright,
so what does all this mean?
Simply
this:
That the "Jesus" of the Roman Catholic Church is the piece of bread that they put into a golden
sun-shaped object on a staff, parade through the town and
worship, and then eat, thinking
that they are "receiving Christ" when they do it...
The Golden
staff with a sun-shaped head is called a Monstrance. It is indicative of the Roman sun worship which is at the root of the
pagan
rites of the Roman Catholic church.
The little round wafer that they call the "host" is so called because
it is the "victim" of an "unbloody sacrifice". The latin word for
"victim" is "hostia", and that is what
they call the wafer, which they think is magically turned into the actual body
and blood of Jesus Christ by means of a process
performed by the pagan priests called "transubstantiation".
(Is
it any wonder that the heart of this religion of sorcery
is called the "Vatican",
which is a Latin word for "The place of
divination"?)
So, when the pagan priests peform the transubstantiation trick, the wafer in the
monstrance has supposedly turned into Jesus Christ, and the Catholic religion
states that anybody
that doesn't believe that is "anathema",
which
means "accursed of God", and thereby separated
from the "Church"; which to a Catholic is damnation, because they are taught
that the "Church" is their only hope of
salvation from hell...
The Catholic Church refers to the Mass as the "unbloody sacrifice" because it is their
false Jesus being sacrificed over and over again for
their sins. That is why the Roman Catholic Jesus is
perpetually dying on a cross (the Roman Catholic
crucifix).
The
crucifix is a graven image that is an abomination to God.
The second commandment that God gave on mount Sinai says,
"Thou
shalt not make unto thee any graven image...".
Exodus
20:4
The scripture also says in Deuteronomy 7:25,26,
"The
graven images of their gods (the gods of the
Canaanites)
shall
ye burn with fire: thou shalt not desire the silver or
gold that is on them, nor take it unto thee, lest thou be
snared therein:
for
it is an abomination
to the LORD thy God.
Neither
shalt thou bring an abomination
into thine house,
lest
thou be a cursed thing
like it:
but
thou shalt utterly detest it,
and
thou shalt utterly abhor it;
for
it is an accursed thing."
That means that this Catholic graven image of a man dying
on a cross is an abomination to the living God, and we
are not only commanded not to desire or possess it, but also to abhor it, and never to allow it
into our house!
And
sadly, so many millions of the deceived not only have
these images, but pray to them, and bow down to them. But
they are not God. And neither is a little round piece of
bread...
In
times past there were many brave disciples of Christ
which
were burned alive for not taking the Mass.
These were people who got hold of the scriptures during
the reformation period, and found out that Jesus Christ was
sacrificed once for all (Hebrews 10:10), and that the abomination of the Mass
was not the "Lord's Supper"...
(The "Lord's Supper" [1 Corinthians 11:20] is an ordinance
that Jesus gave to his disciples before his
suffering, for them to partake of regularly in
remembrance of him, to remember
his death until he comes again--1 Corinthians
11:24-26),
...but rather a blasphemous ritual wherein
their false Jesus was being crucified again and again for
their sins! When I was a child,
we were taught in school that these were witch
burnings--They told us that these were
Christians burning witches in Salem...but first of all,
there is no command in
the New Testament for Christians to burn witches--or
anyone--, and secondly, these were
not Christians burning witches; they were Catholics
burning Christians, because these worthy men
and women of God rightly refused to partake
of the false sacrifice of the Mass! They would dress these
saints up in robes and hats with pictures of witches on
them, tie their hands, and sometimes tie their tongues so
they could not speak, and then walk them through the town
proclaiming that they were hereticks and witches. Then
they tied them to the stakes, assembled the fagots round
about their feet to burn them, and gave them one last
chance to take the Mass. They would hold up the little
round piece of bread that they believed was Jesus Christ,
and say, "Will you recieve the Mass,
heretick?" And these saints would tell them
that the piece of bread they were holding is not Jesus
Christ, but that the real Jesus Christ is risen from the
dead and seated on the right hand of God in heaven. Then
they would condemn them as hereticks and burn them.
That's
what really
happened...
The Mass is not a
Christian ordinance. It is wholly a pagan practice, built on pagan principles, and has absolutely nothing
to do with Jesus Christ or his church. Jesus Christ is not
perpetually dying, as the Roman religion portrays him to
be. He
was sacrificed once for all, and is risen from the dead
incorruptible!
The Roman
Catholic Jesus is forever dying, and is portrayed as such
in the abominable
graven image of
the Catholics called the crucifix; and the "Mass" is the "unbloody sacrifice" of their false Jesus, which is in reality a piece of bread which they ignorantly worship
and then eat as if they were "receiving Christ", which is precisely what
they believe they are doing.
This is why God
hates the Mass, and it is an abominable thing to him, because it is a
mockery of his great sacrifice for the world. And the Bible says
explicitly that all who partake of this abomination are,
"...eating and
drinking damnation to themselves"
(1 Corinthians
11:29),
and
to their generations
(Deuteronomy
5:9)!
Is it any wonder that generations of Catholic people wind
up with so many curses in their families (violence,
poverty, homosexuality, bad marriages, demon possession,
drug and alcohol addiction, gangs, etc...)?
The Bible says,
"A
just man walketh in his integrity,
and
his children are blessed after him."
(Proverbs
20:7).
But how
can we expect our children to be blessed if we
constantly, week after week, partake in the
abominations of the Roman Whore which God Almighty
has declared that he hates?
How can
we imagine that Jesus Christ is a little round wafer
just because a priest said he made it to be so with
his "special powers", and think that Jesus
Christ will be sacrificed repeatedly for our sins,
and then be surprized when the heavens are shut to
our prayers, and the curse of God comes upon us, our
house, and our generations?
But
that curse can be broken.
How?
Stop
it!
The Bible says in the book of Ezekiel,
"But
if the wicked will turn from all his sins that he hath
committed,
and
keep all my statutes, and do that which is lawful and
right,
he
shall surely live, he shall not die.
All
his transgressions that he hath committed,
they
shall not be mentioned unto him:
in
his righteousness that he hath done shall he live.
Have
I any pleasure at all that the wicked should die?
saith
the LORD GOD:
and
not that he should return from his ways,
and
live?"
(Ezekiel
18:21-23)
---and---
"Repent,
and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus
Christ
for
the remission of sins,
and
ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost;
For
the promise is unto you,
and
to your children,
and
to all that are afar off,
even
as many as the Lord our God shall call."
(Acts
2:38,39)
If you have been a partaker of the terrible blasphemy of
the Catholic Mass, repent now, and obey the
gospel of Christ, and God will forgive you, and the curse will be
lifted from you and your house. Then read his word every
day and set your heart to obey it as
it is written (the King James Bible
if you read English), and you will be blessed.
God is real, friend. You will not find him in the wafer
at the mass, nor will you find him anywhere in the
Catholic church; you will not find him in the Protestant
churches, either. You will not find him in theology, or
religion, or philosophy. You will only find him by seeking him
in his word and earnest prayer
with
a willing
and an obedient heart.
"Come
now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD:
though
your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow;
though
they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
If
ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the
land:
But
if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the
sword:
for
the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it."
(Isaiah
1:18-20)
Grace
and peace be unto all them that love the Lord Jesus
Christ in sincerity.
Maranatha!
AMEN.
