Hello Christian Forum,

Picture yourself as a foot solider, posted outside Buckingham Palace, where you've been stationed for 15 long years. Each day you stand to attention and stiffly salute her Majesty whenever her official car arrives or exits the Palace. You know of the Queen but does she know of you (is she even aware of you?) Sadly, you've never had the honour of being introduced to her. Then one day her personal secretary walks over to you and says, "Her majesty would very much like to meet you." You immediately walk with him and for the first time in 15 years, you have gone from knowing of her to knowing her personally. She says to you, "How wonderful to meet you for the first time. If you ever need anything from me, please do not hesitate to contact me directly on my private landline or mobile, anytime of the day or night, I will not be offended." From this day on, you will never need to ever go through her private secretary or anybody else again - she is there whenever you need her - guaranteed.

This brief analogy goes a little way, I think into explaining how it was for me. I knew of the Lord for 15 years of my life as a practising Catholic but I had never been properly introduced to Him. I believe this is the same for all Roman Catholics throughout the world, and perhaps many areas of Protestantism. I would also include the assorted body of cults as well, for they deliberately deprive their ignorant congregations of ever experiencing a one-to-one relationship directly with God. However for organised religions like the Roman Catholic Church, the congregation only know of God through their Church and their priestly mediators. If no priest is available, then nobody else can perform the mass for them. No priest, no mass, no salvation.

The Bible says there is ONE God and ONE Mediator between MAN and God, the MAN Christ Jesus (1 Tim. 2:5.)

Why not willingly present yourself to Him today and start a new personal loving relationship with Him.

You're not promised the next breath.

Why did you leave the RCC after you received Christ as your Savior? It was not necessary for you to leave the RCC after you received Christ as your Savior. I am an RC who received Christ as my Savior during an Altar Call at my brothers Non Denominational Church by praying to Christ and asking Him to become my Savior and I have no intention of leaving the RCC and joining any Protestant Church because even if I do not leave the RCC and do not join any Protestant Church I will still gain entrance into Heaven because I received Christ as my Savior which is the only requirement there is for gaining entrance into Heaven. I have totally dispensed with the unscriptural RCC doctrines and the unscriptural parts to the Mass. I adhere only to the scriptural RCC doctrines and I only participate in the scriptural parts to the Mass. :D
