THE GOSPEL OF CHRISTIANITY’S CHRIST vs THE ‘GOSPEL’ OF ROME’S ANTICHRIST – (Part 10)
Regarding the Roman Catholic sacrifice of the Mass, their Sainted Doctor Alphonsus de Liguori says:
‘If the person of the Redeemer had not yet been in the world, the priest, by pronouncing the words of consecration, would produce this great person of a Man-God. ‘O wonderful dignity of the priests,’ cries out St. Augustine; ‘in their hands, as in the womb of the Blessed Virgin, the Son of God becomes INCARNATE [emphasis mine].’ Hence priests are called the PARENTS of Jesus Christ.
‘Thus the priest may, in a certain manner, be called the CREATOR OF HIS CREATOR…..HE THAT CREATED ME WITHOUT ME IS HIMSELF CREATED BY ME!’ ‘- ‘Dignity and Duty of the Priest,’ pp. 32, 33.” – ‘Facts of Faith,’ Christian Edwardson, p. 207, Southern Publishing Asso., Nashvile, TN: 1943.
Even heathen or pagan religions do not claim—as the Church of Rome claims for its own priests—such dignity and power to “produce” or “create” the gods that their adherents and votaries worship!
If you find this hard to swallow, remember that “truth is stranger than fiction.” However, here, this isn’t fiction to numberless millions who sincerely and zealously partake of the Mass on Sundays believing it to be gospel truth!
Lest we forget: Sincerity never ever changes error into truth, neither does constant repetition, tradition, an overwhelming majority nor the endorsement of powerful human institutions!
