"Ipaglaban mo nang puspusan ang pananampalataya. Panghawakan mong mabuti ang buhay na walang hanggan, dahil diyan ka tinawag ng Diyos nang ipahayag mo sa harap ng maraming saksi ang iyong pananalig kay Cristo." I Tim. 6:12

Still the original church(?)


Catholics claimed that the Roman Catholic church is the ORIGINAL CHURCH, the CHURCH that were built by our Lord Jesus Christ. They say that the Catholic church is the church from the time of jesus christ and of apostles, or lets say from the FIRST CENTURY.

But the question is, Is the Catholic Church the same as the church in the first century? I mean, the teachings, doctrines and itself are all ORIGINAL?


Let us examine...


Some of the Catholic Traditions, practices, teachings, dogmas and whatever they called it, lets take a closer look...

Date created/Teachings/Creator/Source

A.D 325

>Council of Nicea
>The story of the church p. 50

A.D 373
>Christmas
>Artenon

A.D 995

And etc...

So, How can they claim that it was still the original church that was established by Christ IF its doctrines, and teachings are invented, added and so on?

Does the Roman Catholic Church violated commandments of God?
(Simple answer. Yes.)

The bible says:

"Be sure to do everything I have commanded you. Do not add anything to it, and do not take anything away from it." Deut. 12:32
"For truly I tell you, until the sky and earth pass away and perish, not one smallest letter nor one little hookwill pass from the Law until all things are accomplished.Whoever then breaks or does away with or relaxes one of the least of these commandments and teaches men so shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but he who practices them and teaches others to do so shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven." Mt. 5:18-19
"Now, brothers, I have applied these things to myself and Apollos for your benefit, so that you may learn from us the meaning of the saying, "Do not go beyond what is written." Then you will not take pride in one man over against another." I Cor. 4:6

"I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone adds anything to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book. And if anyone takes words away from this book of prophecy, God will take away from him his share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are described in this book." Rev. 22:18-19

But wait, can we say that the teachings of the Catholic Church were teachings of God that are WRITTEN IN THE BIBLE??? (Who can prove it?) Tsk.Tsk.

Doctrines of the CC are not of God, but of Man... Those are called MAN-MADE teachings! And also teachings that are UNBIBLICAL. So, if they follow those teachings in worshiping God, the question is, do they give GLORY to HIM?

Lets find it out by looking it in the bible...

"It is useless for you to worship me, when you teach rules made up by humans." Mt. 15:9

Simple answer. NO!

It is but the truth! And detractors again may wonder... But Jesus Christ promised that the gates of hades WILL NOT PREVAIL AGAINST HIS CHURCH?

Another, why does i say that the Catholic Church is not ORIGINAL? Click here

SO, Do you still believe that the Catholic Doctrines are of God?
And that the CC is still the same and original Church?? Tsk.Tsk.

  1. Ang Amang Diyos ba sa Langit ay Diyos ng Kaguluhan at Pagkakampi-Kampi?

    O ang Amang Diyos sa Langit ay Diyos ng Kaayusan at Kapayapaan.

    "Gawin Ninyong may Karapatan at may Kaayusan ang Lahat ng mga Bagay."
    -excerpt in Book of 1st Corinthians.

    Kaya ang Lahat ng Bagay sa loob ng
    Iglesia Ni Cristo ay nasa kaayusan. Hiwalay ang Lalake at Babae. Sa loob ng Iglesia Ni Cristo ay may Solemnidad kang Madarama. Walang Maingay. Walang Nagbubulungan. Walang batang naglalaro, at tumatakbo ng paroon at parito. Kahit na sa Pananamit ng Bawat kaanib ay inilalagay sa maayos na kalagayan, dahil bawat kaanib ay humharap sa Amang Diyos na nasa langit.

    Tanong ko lang sa iyo, kayo ba ganito ba ang mga Pagsamba nyo. O para kayong nasa palengke?Nagagawa nyo ba ang marapat at maayos na Pagsamba?
