☦️🕯️The demons attack the person who has attained the summits of prayer in order to prevent his conceptual images of sensible things from being free from passion; they attack the gnostic so that he will dally with impassioned thoughts; and they attack the person who has not advanced beyond the practice of the virtues so as to persuade him to sin through his actions. They contend with all men by every possible means in order to separate them from God.🕯️☦️

1) Roman Catholicism insulted the Holy Spirit, denigrating Him with 'filioque', and the Holy Spirit left that denomination. RCC has no grace, and all honest RC and ex-RC admit the fact that they don't feel presence of the Holy Spirit in their temples.
2) RCC is in a conflict with the Scripture with its papism, distorted idea about proceeding of the Holy Spirit, immaculate conception and other heresies.
3) Roman Catholicism has deteriorated to the point of being indistinguishable from its child, Protestantism, they lost the major part of the Holy Tradition. 13th century Catholic would burn modern "Catholics" as heretics if he met them.
Inquirers ask about that from time to time.

When Jesus Breaks the Fourth Wall
The Mocking of Christ is one of the most striking paintings ever made of Jesus… and, surprisingly, almost no one knows about it.
Painted in 1880 by Danish artist Carl Bloch, this work captures one of the harshest moments in the biblical narrative: the humiliation…

Veterans of the Crimean War* near the Fraternal cemetery. Sevastopol , 1911 Crimea, Russian Empire
*Crimean War, (October 1853–February 1856), war fought mainly on the Crimean Peninsula between the Russians and the British, French, and Ottoman Turkish, with support from January 1855 by the army of Sardinia-Piedmont. The war arose from the conflict of great powers in the Middle East and was more directly caused by Russian demands to exercise protection over the Orthodox subjects of the Ottoman sultan. Another major factor was the dispute between Russia and France over the privileges of the Russian Orthodox and Roman Catholic churches in the holy places in Palestine.

Intercession of the Saints
(These are important verses when talking to Protestants and all their offspring churches)
(Revelation of John 5:7-8)
[7] And he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne.
[8] And when he had taken the book, the four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints.

(Revelation of John 8:2-4)
[2] And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and to them were given seven trumpets.
[3] And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne.
[4] And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before God out of the angel’s hand.

A private house in Indonesia, used as a Christian meeting place, was destroyed by Muslims.
After destroying their churches, they don’t want Christians to meet even in their homes.
Very sick societies
