Loved your story / testimony ........As I stated before.....welcome to the escapees club.Do you ever focus on how fortunate you are that God somehow extracted you from that beast system when untold millions of others are demonically or pride fully (or stupidly) trapped?Or focus on all the years that you played Russian roulette by being a member ....... that is, if you would have died still under its membership? Scary stuff, eternity is a long time if you're on the wrong side of the fence.A lot of people hear the Catholics recite the Apostles Creed and say....these people are surely Christians. This is like a smoke screen, what they don't realize is how the RCC has changed and distorted God's word and plan for salvation in so very many ways......all for its betterment (money and power) and to God's loss.I used to think that maybe God would give many of the Catholics a pass for their grievous errors because so many of them were blindly led into the RCC in their youth by their parents (who were blindly lead in by their parents)......but then I read passages like Matthew 7:13-14 which give me strong doubts as to their salvation.13 "Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many (1.5 billion Catholics) who go in by it. 14 Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life (not bondage), and there a few who find it."Obviously Muslims, Buddhists and many others are also on the wide path but today I am focused on the Catholics who have been snookered by Satan into believing a false gospel propagated by the boys' in the funny hats and silly costumes in Rome.Keep speaking the true (unvarnished) Word Gino...........Blessings........John B
