Answering Roman Catholicism

In the 21st century, many self-described evangelical leaders offer responses to the errors of Roman Catholicism that range from silence, to abject weakness, to open embrace of its un-Biblical positions. When confronted with vital opportunities to declare the vast differences between Roman Catholicism and authentic Biblical Christianity, they instead sow seeds of confusion and compromise. 

Our Lord commands us to preach clarity instead of confusion and Biblical separation instead of compromise. The distinctions between Roman Catholicism and authentic Biblical Christianity are not sliding-scale shades of difference. They mark an unbridgeable gulf between Christ and Antichrist, truth and error, Heaven and Hell. Here we examine these vast differences by comparing approved Vatican sources (which bear its claim of infallibility) with the Word of God. May the Lord, as He has promised, use His inerrant Word to accomplish the purpose for which He has sent it (Isaiah 55:11).

Self-described evangelical leaders' response to the death of Pope Benedict XVI once again demonstrates just how far so many of them have departed from being truly Protestant.
The differences between Roman Catholicism and authentic Biblical Christianity are not sliding-scale shades of meaning, but an unbridgeable gulf between Christ and Antichrist, truth and error, Heaven and Hell.
Scripture demonstrates that Rome's claims of authority in matters of doctrine, and all else, are illegitimate.
Salvation is by faith alone, in Christ alone, apart from works. Salvation is secure because it is all of Christ.
By giving her the un-Biblical titles of Mediatrix and Co-Redemptrix, Rome is well on the way to making Mary a fourth person of the Godhead.
At issue is nothing less than the difference between eternal life and eternal death.
It means to say the same thing God says about your sins - not what Rome says.
Roman Catholicism has repeatedly and arbitrarily changed the rules about sin, and what must be done to pay for it.
Rome says you must come to the confessional booth. Christ invites believers directly to His Father's throne.
It is God's plan from eternity to have a kingdom of believer-priests who come directly to Him.
