Hating Islam While Loving Roman Catholicism Makes No Sense!
It's been 15 years since the fall of the World Trade Center. Let's focus on this problem where you have people who are loving Roman Catholicism while hating Islam. Some apostate ministers hate Islam while they call Roman Catholics as brothers and sisters in Christ. You have some Roman Catholics who hate Islam while they want to consider Evangelicals and Baptists as separated brethren. Now let's talk about why it's stupid to hate Islam while one loves Roman Catholicism.
The problem of loving Roman Catholicism while hating Islam is that both religions are sure ways to Hellfire. Both of them teach salvation by works (though done differently), they both have a bloody history of convert or die, they both carry a legalistic system, both have a history of abuse with women by their religious leaders, and they both have their fair share of persecuting Christians in the name of God. The differences are Roman Catholicism believes in some fundamental Christian truths like the Trinity while Islam denies that Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God. Neither one of them should be accepted because they're both sinister religious systems that keep their followers blinded.
It's stupid to believe that Roman Catholics are Christians. No, they're not Christians and that truth needs to be told no matter how many times it offends hearers. Anybody can claim that they belong to a Christian group but deny a lot of fundamentals for salvation. Roman Catholicism denies the truth that salvation is by faith alone, the Scriptures are sufficient for spiritual matters, that people must add their own contribution to staying saved and that no one can be sure of their salvation. It's no different than the sinister system of Islam that says that the Bible is insufficient so they need the Koran and that one can't be too sure except to die in Jihad. Both religions deny the Biblical truth that salvation is by grace through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, that the Bible is sufficient for spiritual matters and that it's grace not works that keeps the person saved.
Any evangelical leader who says that Islam is violent yet embraces the Pope as a brother in Christ or Roman Catholics as family is really contradicting himself. If you know the history of the Roman Catholic institution, it's been guilty of several crimes against Christianity while operating in the guise of Christianity. It has had several conquests that you can read where people were forced to convert or die. These acts aren't any different from what Muhammad did in his quest to spread his new religion. The Roman Catholic institution still has much to answer for as Islam.
What's even worse is that we have Roman Catholics who are now deceived into believing that acts of Islamic terrorism aren't done in the name of Islam. It's because they're blinded into thinking that ISIS isn't being Islamic. No, ISIS is doing the same methods of Muhammad through more high tech means available today. Before, Muhammad and no Internet or modern methods to produce explosives to spread his religion. Today, ISIS and other Muslim terrorist networks have modern technology to help them carry out the same evil method their founder uses. What's worse is that many Muslims don't even realize that they're actually supporting terrorist activities. That's the sad fact that Satan just loves to keep people blinded. Only God can open up their eyes!
Roman Catholicism and Islam are now establishing closer ties than they did in the past. Before, they had several battles over Jerusalem's territory but today, both sides are joining forces in the last days. Some theologians who don't think the final Pope will be the Antichrist think he'll be the False Prophet and that the Antichrist will be a Muslim. It's still sound speculation based on facts. The Bible says that the Antichrist will serve this "god of forces" which may be Allah. Pope Francis even erroneously says that both the Bible and the Koran have the same divine inspired owner. Why do you love one falsehood and hate the other when both falsehoods need to be hated enough with love for those captivated by them? Both Muslims and Roman Catholics are on their way to Hell. It's time to warn them about sin and Hell and tell them the Gospel according to Jesus Christ!
