May the Holy Father bless you. That we might be rescued from hell, we have been baptized, attend mass daily, go to confession and continue receiving the sacraments on a regular basis. But God says, "If a man is not born again, he cannot enter the kingdom of God." (John 3:3) So being right in the eyes of the Roman Catholic church is not the same as being right in the eyes of God. The need to be born again is because "The heart of man (the core of his very being) is deceitful and above all things desperately wicked." (Jeremiah 17:9) How often do you have sexual thoughts? Have you ever stolen anything or wish you had something someone else has? Have you ever hated anyone? God calls this murder. If you answered yes to any of these questions you have broken God's law which exposes the infinite depth of your wickedness. In this wretched state you can't do anything to satisfy the infinite standard of God's righteousness, wrath, and holiness. In other words being a good Catholic cannot save you. By faith alone in the blood and imputed righteousness of Jesus Christ alone can save you. This is God's gift to you. Your religious activity is a rejection of Jesus Christ's payment in full for your sins. Therefore, if you would just "confess with your mouth Jesus Christ as Lord and believe in your heart God raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved. For with the heart man believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation." (Romans 10:9-10) Now please memorize this last bible verse instead of praying the Rosary, and go to 9marks.org and find a good church. If you do this and believe all that has been said on this card to be true, I'll see you in heaven.
