The TRUTH about

the Catholic (Universal) religion.


(Roman “Universal” church)
(SOURCE: http://www.laverdaduniversal.org/catolicos.html)

Here's what The Catholic Church teaches,


COMPARED WITH WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS:
(It has been used here own words, the original text
of the Catholic catechism here you can find it here )

The salvation, mercy, justification


The justification is received first by baptism. (1262-1274).
The justification is received through faith, sacraments and good works
(1247-1249).
The man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law (Ro.3: 28).
God justifies the sinner who believes (Rom. 4:5). Good works are the
result of salvation, the result is the desire to do good works.
The salvation of the results of sin is a process that lasts a lifetime
(161-162, 1254-1255).
Salvation is an event unique and once, when the sinner accepts Jesus
Christ as their mediator. Then God declares us justified. (Romans 5:9).
The man gets his salvation with the grace, through faith, good works and
participation in the sacraments of the church (183, 1129, 1815, 2002).
Salvation is through faith, through grace, not by works.
(Ephesians 2:8,9).
Grace is earned by good works (2010, 2027).

Grace is a free gift - without works or merit (Ro.11: 6).


The priest can forgive sins acting as a judge (1442, 1461).

Only God can forgive sins (Mark 2:7).


Although sin is confessed and forgiven, the temporal punishment
according to the number of sins does not come out (the teaching of
purgatory) (1472-1473).
Purgatory after death is required for sin to be fully reconciled and that the
soul is clean (1030-1031).

God forgives all sins (Col.2_13, Isa 43:25).


The Bible does not teach about purgatory - Jesus Christ redeemed all the
sins on the cross (Heb. 1:3).
Special facilities declared by the church help the sinner to shorten the time
in purgatory (1471-1473). (The dead may also receive facilitating eg a
living relative if he succeeds with his work. These works include eg a
pilgrimage declared by the church to a certain destination).
Jesus saved those who believed in him because his blood at once
- no need to declare additional ecclesiastical (Rev. 1:5, Heb. 9:12,14,28).
Nobody can say for certain that this saved for eternal life (1036, 2005).
A believer knows that he is an heir of eternal life by the
promise of the Word (1.Jn. 5:13). (An inner witness of the
Holy Spirit that we are children of God continues the conversion.)
Eternal life is a well-deserved award (1821, 2010).
Eternal life is a free gift given by God (Romans 6:23).
The Catholic Church is absolutely necessary as mediator of salvation
(846).
The only salvation is through Jesus Christ -
there is only ONE mediator.
(Heb. 4:12, 1 Tim. 2:5).
 The Mass - Communion

At Mass the bread and wine become the body and true blood of Jesus
(1373-1377).
Jesus is truly present in the body and blood in the Mass the bread and
wine (1374, 1377).
The bread and wine are the symbol of the body and blood of Jesus
(1 Cor.11 :23-25). Christ is in heaven (Heb. 10:12,13).
The bread and wine consecrated help achieve eternal life (1392, 1405,
1419).
The bread and wine are examples to help us remember
what Jesus did (Luke 22:19).

The Eucharist is a sacrifice because it represents (makes present) the


sacrifice of the cross (repeat) (1085, 1365-1367).
The sacrifice of the cross is a historical event that was once, not
repeated.(Mark 15:21-41).
The sacrifice of the cross is repeated in the sacrifice of the Mass (1323,
1382).
The sacrifice of the cross is fulfilled (John 19:30, Heb. 9:28).
The Mass is a sacrifice without blood, which is atonement sins of the
living and the dead (1367, 1371, 1414).
Without shedding of blood is no remission of sins
(Heb. 9:22, Lev. 17:11).
The church continues to sacrifice to Christ (the church) to save the
world (1323, 1382, 1405, 1407).

The mission of the Church of Christ is to declare the Lord's

sacrifice, which is the basis of salvation.


(1 Cor. 11:26).
The Virgin Mary

Mary was free from original sin from birth (490-492).


Maria, "all holy", lived a sinless life (411, 493).
Maria, heiress of Adam, all born in sin (Ps. 51:5, Rom. 5:12).
Mary was a sinner, only God is holy
(Luke 18:19, Rom. 3:23, Rev. 15:4).
Mary was a virgin before and after the birth of Jesus and also during the
birth (496-511).
Mary was a virgin until the birth of Christ (Matt. 1:25). Later gave birth to
other children (Mt. 13:55-56, Psalm 69:9).
Mary is the Mother of God (963, 971, 2677).
Mary was Jesus' earthly mother. (John 2:1).
Mary is the Mother of the Church / congregation (963, 975).

Maria is amember of the Church of Christ


(Heb. 1:14, 1 Cor. 12:13,27).
Maria is Salvadora, had part in the saving work of Christ (618, 964, 968,
970).
Christ alone is Savior, He alone suffered
and died reconciling the sins. (1 Peter 1:18-19).
Maria was taken to heaven without seeing death (966, 974).
Maria died and his body turned to dust (Gen. 3:19).
Maria is intermediate and pray for us and we can bring our concerns and
requests (968-970, 2677).

Jesus is the only mediator between us


and God (1 Tim. 2:5, Jn. 14:13-14, 1 Peter 5:7).
Our confidence is widened to deliver now, "the hour of our
death" (2677).
In the hour of our death, our trust and hope is only in Christ
(Rom. 10:13, Heb. 4:12).
God has elevated Mary the "Queen of heaven and earth." She belongs the
praise (966, 971, 2675).
Only the name of the Lord

is to be applauded, only He is high


above the sky and the earth (Ps. 148:13).

The authority

Peter was the head of the apostles (552, 765, 880).

Christ was and is the head of the apostles


and all his congregation (John 13:13).
The bishops are the heirs of the apostles and their followers (861-862,
938).
Apostles do not have followers - the apostles were witnesses
to the death of Christ (Heb. 1:21-22).
Pope is the heir of Peter in the church administration (882, 936).
Pedro has no heir in the Bible.
Pope as the highest and the bishops run the church worldwide (883,
894-896).
Christ leads his congregation in the world (Col 1:18).
The task of authentically interpreting the word of God, oral or written, has
been entrusted to the living Magisterium of the Church (the bishops in
communion with the Pope) (85-87).
The Holy Spirit is the teacher of the congregation
(John 14:: 26, 16:13, 1 Jn. 2:27).
The Catholic Church is the infallible interpreter of the Word (890-891,
2034-2035).
The Scriptures do they have the explanation and interpretation infallible
(Acts 17:11).
Only the church can and has the right to explain the Word (85, 100, 939).
Every Christian, with the help of the Holy Spirit has the
right and can interpret the Word (Heb. 17:11, 1 Cor. 2:12-16).
Pope is an infallible authority in teaching (891).

Only God is infallible and perfect


(Prov.21: 30, Psalm 8:4-5, 19:8-9).
Scripture and church tradition together are the Word of God (81, 85, 97,
182).They together are the basis of teaching the faith of the Church (80,
82).
Only the Scriptures: Old and New Testaments
are the Word of God (John 10:35, 2 Tim. 3:16-17, 2 Peter
1:20-21). Tradition is the word of man and his base is not in the Word
(Mark 7:1-13).

The Word is the basis of teaching the faith of the


church (Mark 7:7-13, 2 Tim. 3:16-17).
IN ADDITION, THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH
AGAINST THE BIBLE eg VA IN
Infant baptism
"Whoever believes and is baptized shall be saved: but he that believeth
not shall be damned." (Mark 16:16) Infants can not make their decision
about their faith, why not be baptized, that the only mode of baptism is
immersion. (Read more here )

NO ORIGINAL SAVE THE DAY OF REST


"We observe Sunday instead of Saturday because the Catholic Church at
the Council of Laodicea (336 AD), transferred the solemnity from
Saturday to Sunday" (Pedro Geierman, Conveft's Cataechism of
Catholic Doctrine)

PRAY FOR THE DEAD


Catholicism continues to add one tradition over another, without any
biblical foundation! This false doctrine is related to another, which is the
purgatory where "people can be saved through the fire" is something
invented by men, the Bible clearly says that we cannot help the dead,
