Many Religious Roman Catholics are Living in Sin!
There has been the saying of people that, "Well he's so religious, he prays a lot. He goes to Mass and never misses one, he always goes to confession..." type of blah blah talk. However the Lord Jesus Christ had warned of this in Matthew 7:16 that by their fruits you will know them. I have read several false accusations by the religious crowd that the born again Christians have declared the nullity of good works and against it. However they do have their own standards because they are ignorant of the righteousness of God while trying to establish their own righteousness (Romans 10:3). The hard truth is THIS- religion DOES NOT change man and only God's grace NOT man's good works gives true power over sin and to live a real life that produces godliness from START to END (Ephesians 2:8-10).
True religion vs. false religion differentiates itself and the fruits show! So I'd like to really show this fact that many people are religious to "look holy" YET they are living in sin with these few examples that I have made up as an illustration plus hate me all you want but I'll just keep praying for your salvation that they'll know the truth like I did:
1.) A woman goes to Mass, receives Communion every Mass, memorizes a series of prayers to various "saints" and angels (which includes fallen angels) and yet she is this- a negligent mother, a flight attendant who cheats her husband with various married men and later sires an illegitimate child to get pension. She calls herself "The Flying Catechist" claiming she knows the mysteries of the Scripture yet she is living such a sinful life of cheating on her husband, left him for a married man and sired an illegitimate child contradicting Scripture and yet she HYPOCRITICALLY dares to tell me I'm wrong with the Bible!
2.) A father has been very religious like the example above yet he also is a Freemason, a habitual adulterer with many mistresses and keeps badmouthing his wife who loves him. What is worse is that he has cohabited with a woman who is not is wife and started another family with her (that's double the sin!) and he spoils their illegitimate child like a princess.
3.) A woman is also even more religious than the flight attendant in number is also a frequent adulteress who has been wrecking homes by dating one married man after the other all for money. Also she is involved in various sleazy transactions to make "easy money".
4.) Or maybe I can talk about the various corrupt politicians! One has to realize that the three late dictators Adolph Hitler, Benito Mussolini and Francisco Franco to name but a few of MANY RELIGIOUS ROMAN CATHOLICS are actually brutal dictators and this truth is denied. In today's political arena, talk about how many corrupt politicians are very pious.
One has to realize this that when religious fanaticism and extreme devotion comes, the number one victims are TRUE BELIEVERS. Think about the Inquisition's fanatical devotion which was supported by canon law to how many true believers died as martyrs for Christ. The "Foxe's Book of Martyrs" for one exposed the atrocities that hit true believers also because they exposed the sins of various Popes and priests which today are just "swept under the rug". I hope that people who read my article will get saved soon.
