It is a question of discearning spiritual things where we fall prey to the powers of darkness. Prior to being born again one is already in the power of darkness in a sense.

for mr fraud and his constant lying about me. One who bears false witness against one's neighbor commits as serious a sin as if one had borne false witness against God, saying that God did not create the world. — Mechilta to Exodus 20:13

KM According to the New Testament, Jesus explains that obedience to the prohibition against false testimony from the ten commandments is a requirement for eternal life. According to Jesus, false testimony comes from the sinful desires of the heart and makes people unclean

It Is The Demon's and evil spirits that try and filter through your mind.you must stop them by understanding 1# Understanding Yahweh Is Not A god. 2#keeping his feast and his sabbath. Keeping the old testament.to the best of your ability And I do not care who you are and your life will change.for the better. Scripture says that understanding only comes from the reverence of your heavenly father. This means to do as he tells you.don't he haw around with it. And you can not gain Understanding by worshiping a man made god...that's right this is what you sheeple don't get...... man changed his name and made the creator a god....the very thing he warns you not to worship gods and or god hell can't you see he don't even want to be in the same category as them. rev 12/9 sure hits home....and can you not see everyone interpenetrating the scripture according to them. who has never once kept the sabbath his feast......NO UNDERSTANDING.

GET SAVED!!! "If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not live according to the truth."(1 John 1:6)

1956 I made my first holy communion in the catholic church our family belonged to. 3 masses on sunday, 3 parish priests, a full time housekeeper, a part time secretary, 2 affiliated nuns. About 1100-1200 catholics attended every sunday through the 3 masses.
2012, 1 mass on sunday, about 150 attendees. Almost all elderly. Saturday night mass, 30-40 attendees. No parish priest (1 priest works between two parishes in the city himself) housekeeper, secretary, and the 2 nuns long gone.
Wouldn't any educated person wonder why since the high water mark of 1968 has the catholic church in the western world been on the slide?
There seems to be many different reasons, and the FEAR instilled into our parents and grandparents that its a MORTAL SIN to miss one sunday mass doesn't seem to faze young people today in the least.
The abuse scandals were not well known 45 years ago, accept for the odd rumor. There must be more deep seated reasons why in just 2 generations the catholic church is shuttering more churches than they are building.
Is the vatican paying attention? Do they care where many have gone to?
Where will the catholic church be in america in the next 10 years? 25 years? Unless God appears on earth himself, I don't see any reverse in the trends.
Where have all the catholics gone? and why have they gone?

Robert- Yes, we were once in darkness. But fater our conversion by an act of Holy God-Spirit, << Romans 6 >> King James Version ---------- 1What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? 2God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? 3Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? 4Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. 5For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection: 6Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. 7For he that is dead is freed from sin. Romans 6. Yes, I sin Robert. When I am tempted, when I am drawn away of my own lust, and enticed. 15Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.

Two good living, god fearing people on this forum, Kay and her husband who tell you a story that has tormented them, and that you demand PROOF about its authenticity, yet you automatically believe stories written by "who knows who wrote them" two thousand years ago and you believe every word they say. I mean after all, they only have 125 years of bible study among them, or SO THEY SAY.LOL

It is not right up to date but fairly current. Read through it and see what I am talking about. Don't blame me as you always do because the numbers are low and going lower. http://webspace.webring.com/people/up/pharsea... This is the trend of our society. Millions of catholics have done what I have done. Walked away. Remember you walked away from your original belief.

Sherlayne wrote: <quoted text> Robert - don't you think it could just be religious hysteria? Over-zealous people working themselves up to fever pitch. Happy Thanksgiving, dear :) You are so nice to everyone. Sherlayne good friend Sure.... There can be a problem with being zealous, and especially over-zealousness. It rests in first being able to discearn good and bad. One must be aware, then understand, and finally decide if such actions are bringing one closer to God, or farther. A person in such a position cannot use the reason that they feel good, or better, as the determining factor in being zealous. Such reasoning and feelings can be counterfeit.... Happy Thanksgiving back to you. Thank you.
