“We are raising a generation on the spiritual junk food of religious videos, movies, youth entertainment, and comic book paraphrases of the Bible. The Word of God is being rewritten, watered down, illustrated, and dramatized in order to cater to the taste of the carnal mind. That only leads further into the wilderness of doubt and confusion.” ~Dave Hunt
It is no secret that Roman Catholicism teaches that their official writings are equal with God’s Word. This, in and of itself, ought to be enough to cause true Christians to see the unbiblical nature of this religion. Sadly, many have turned a blind and in many cases, a not-so-blind eye to darkness that Roman Catholicism teaches its flock. Take for instance, its official, yet not often talked about doctrine concerning Muslims.
Although history bears witness to its many bloody battles with fundamental Muslims, it might be interesting to note Rome’s official teachings regarding Islam. In “The Complete and Updated Catechism of the Catholic Church” it says,
“The plan of salvation also includes those who acknowledge the Creator, in the first place amongst whom are the Muslims. These profess to hold the faith of Abraham, and together with us they adore the one, merciful God, mankind’s judge on the last day.” #841, p. 242, The Complete and Updated Catechism of the Catholic Church, 1995.
In contrast, consider the words of Jesus in John 14:6, “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man comes unto the Father, but by Me.”
Light has no fellowship with darkness. (2 Corinthians 6:14) For those who think they are Christians yet remain in the Catholic church, the Lord says, “Come out from among them, and be ye separate…and I will receive you.” 2 Corinthians 6:17. Neither Mary, nor the Church can save. Only Jesus Christ can save us from our sins. “But after that the kindness and love of God our Savior toward man appeared, not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; which He shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior; that being justified by His [free and full gift of] grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.” Titus 3:4-7.

“The history of religion is the tragic tale of those who are morally spiritually blind and deaf yet who devise rituals and symbols in an attempt to “see” God and “hear” His voice and benefit from His power through means that the Bible condemns as idolatry and divination.” Dave Hunt, “Beyond Seduction”, Chapter 10.
