The tearing of the temple curtain the moment Jesus died on the cross is a powerful metaphor that points to the truth that with Jesus there is no longer a mediator between humans and God.

No more middleman--church, priest, clergy, or even a religious hero.

Open access to the divine and the sacred for all.

Excellent observation.

The tearing of the curtain that covered the Holy of Holies, was the destruction of the temple.

It was the end of the law and the end of religion.

This why Paul said, "The just shall live by faith".

I have seen people worshiping the pope on TV.
No you haven't. Again: I thought you used to be a Catholic. Why, then, the ignorant statement?

Why does the pope sit on a throne?
In the church of every bishop is a ceremonial chair---Greek: kathedras)---which is why their churches are called "cathedrals." The chair of the Bishop of Rome (Pope) is symbolic of the authority of his ecclesial office and function.

Your pope thinks that he is God, 2 Thessalonians 2:3, 4.

You are mistaken Robert. But didn't you once worship a gospel choir whilst watching your tv.... REMEMBER?...

That was the night that you had a mental breakdown in front of the tv whilst sitting on your throne... You should have gone to see a doc instead of wasting a life for over 40 years!

:sigh:

God Bless!

Paul said, ....Romans 1:16.


Paul also said, ...Romans 3:20.


....2 Corinthians 5:18, 19.

Colossians 1:21.

John 3:16.

....

These are ALL Catholic teachings Robert. So no need to tell the Church who authored the Bible what she wrote. The Bible is in fact based on Catholic teachings rather than the other way around.

Which is why Protestants claim to have Bible based churches, but we have a Church based Bible.

God Bless!

Catholics do not "worship" the pope. We worship God and God alone. Sorry for your confusion. (I thought you said you used to be a Catholic... :think: )

Jack Chick had this to say, he's the guy some people love to hate.

Dear ones in Christ,

This September, for the first time, a pope will speak to a joint session of Congress.

Greatly loved and admired, Pope Francis is possibly the most powerful and richest man on earth today. To over a billion followers, he is Jesus Christ on earth.

When he arrives on our shores, he'll be received as a king, loved and lifted up by the media. Congressmen and politicians will fall all over themselves to greet him. Roman Catholics will feel like God Himself has come to America. Just like President George W. Bush, when asked what he saw in the eyes of Pope Benedict XVI. He replied, "God." But Pope Francis outdoes all as a religious star. The coming of this Jesuit-trained pope will be televised worldwide.

In the past, mighty men of God like Martin Luther, John Calvin, Roger Williams, John Knox, John Wesley, Spurgeon, Moody and Billy Sunday wouldn't be caught dead shaking hands with the pope. All of them in one voice would call Pope Francis "antichrist" (against, and in the place of, Christ).
