'Earnestly contending for the faith,' (Jude 3 ) as well as sharing encouragement and hope through Scripture (Romans 15:4), and through the poems and posts that I write. One of many voices on the Internet warning Christians of the importance of testing the teachings of men (and women) against the unchanging truth of God's Word. (Acts 17:11) I 'warn you with tears' through much of what I write, to 'be on guard against the savage wolves that will come in among us who will distort the Word of God' as God's Word warns us about in Acts 20:26-31
Hey there! Thanks for dropping by Living4HisGlory! Take a look around and grab the RSS feed to stay updated. See you around!
If you keep the above Scripture in mind as you listen to this very good, but rather lengthy examination of Catholicism in light of Scripture given by author and speaker, James McCarthy, who is a former Catholic like I am, you will come to realize that Catholicism does indeed preach another gospel which does not offer precious Catholics any assurance of salvation. When time allows, please prayerfully consider listening so that you can learn what Catholicism actually teaches. When you realize what they are actually being taught, I pray that it would cause you to be filled with love and compassion for your Catholic friends and that God would put an overwhelming desire within you to share the Biblical gospel with them so that they come to see all that Jesus Christ truly accomplished for us through His sinless life, His once for all sacrifice on the cross, His death, burial, and glorious resurrection from the dead. Keep them in prayer with the hope that the day will come when they see the truth and that they will one day place their trust in Jesus Christ alone for their salvation, and not in their church and their sacramental system.
I encourage any dear Catholics who may see this to please consider listening to James McCarthy’s in depth teachings, as well. Some of the things that I said in this post may sound harsh to you, but if you would take the time to test the teachings of your church against what God says in His Word, you will come to realize the amazing depth of the love that God has for you and how you can come directly to Him through Jesus Christ, the only Mediator between God and man (1 Timothy 2:5), the only way to the Father (John 14:6), and the only means by which you can receive forgiveness for your sins in order to have a personal relationship with Him.
Thank you very much for stopping by and taking time out of your busy day to read some of my posts and poems.
God Bless You

UPDATE:
Lord willing, I hope to finally be able to present you with the next post in the series, ‘Apparitions Of The Virgin Mary, Or Demons In Disguise – Examining The Evidence In Light Of Scripture’ by this Sunday evening, and I am also hoping to have another False Teacher Friday post ready for you by next Friday, March 30th.
Desiring for God to use all that I have been through in life, I decided to start my first blog, living4hisglory.wordpress.com, in order to write poems about some of those experiences to bring glory to God, as well as to share them with others with the hope of encouraging those of you who have been broken and shattered by life's circumstances and hurt by those who were supposed to have loved you rather than abuse you in some way.
Also, because of some pastors and teachers today who seem to be abandoning Biblical Christianity and instead seem to be either seeking to build their own empires and promoting their own agendas, and at times even leading the people in their churches into unbiblical, 'mystical practices' without some people even realizing it, I saw the importance and necessity to begin writing poems and posts in order to inform Christians, as well as to make Christians realize the extreme importance of testing what people say (who claim to speak for God) against the truth of God's Word, (Acts 17:11) so that they will not be deceived. It has never been -- nor shall it ever be -- my intention to bash any particular pastor or teacher; my sole purpose in bringing attention to false teachings is to make Christians realize that we are to be followers of Jesus Christ, and not to be followers of any man (or woman) and his (or her) ministry. I hope that you will be blessed -- as well as challenged -- by the things that I write.
Thank you for stopping by and taking time to read some of my posts and poems.
God Bless You
