"The Christianity of history is not Protestantism. If ever there were a safe truth it is this, and Protestantism has ever felt it so; to be deep in history is to cease to be a Protestant." (-John Henry Newman, An Essay on the Development of Christian Doctrine).

"Where the bishop is, there let the people gather; just as where ever Jesus Christ is, there is the Catholic Church". -St. Ignatius of Antioch (ca 110 AD)a martyr later thrown to the lions, wrote to a church in Asia Minor. Antioch was also where the term "Christian" was first used.

“But if I should be delayed, you should know how to behave in the household of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and foundation of truth.” 1 Timothy 3:15

"This is the sole Church of Christ, which in the Creed we profess to be one, holy, catholic and apostolic." -CCC 811

The Difference Between A Born Again And A Christian

Post in Facebook Page


A Born Again Belongs to man made churches.

A Christian belongs to the Church founded by Jesus Christ, the Catholic Church. (Mt.16:17-19)

A Born Again hates the mother of Jesus Christ, accusing her of being worshiped, had other children, sinful and an idol.

A Christian honors her like how Jesus Christ honored and respected her. (Lk.1:28, 48)

A Born Again sees Mary as a competition against Christ

A Christian sees Mary as his loving mother and a sure guide to Jesus Christ. (John 2:1-12, John 19:26-27)

A Born Again Sunday worship is aimed to be emotionally touching and entertaining.

A Christian Sunday worship is solemn and sacred. It is not entertaining because the center of the Holy Eucharist is Jesus Christ not ourselves. (Matthew 26:26-28)

A Born Again sees no importance in good works.

A Christian puts his faith into practice by living a life filled with good works (Mt. 25:31-45, Rom.2:7, James 2:24)

A Born Again arrogantly boast that they are already saved and they can no longer lose their salvation.

A Christian before God accepts his weakness and failures and by God’s grace hopes to be saved like that of St. Paul. (Titus 1:1-2, Titus 3:7, 2 Corinthians 4:16-18)

A Born Again forgets about their dead

A Christian believes that baptized individual (living or dead) are members of the body of Christ (unless by their own wrong doing severed their unity with Christ). (Heb.12:22, Rev.4:8)

A Born Again Believes that sufferings are punishment for sins

A Christian believes that suffering is a virtue wherein uniting our sufferings with that of Christ makes us a better disciple. (Col.1:24)

A Born Again proclaims himself to be forgiven from all his sins

A Christian confesses his sins to the priest as mandated by Jesus Christ. For it is not the priest per se who forgives us but it is Christ through the priest. (John 20:22-23)

A Born Again believes in the Bible alone and his personal interpretation of Scriptures.

A Christian submits himself to the authority of Jesus Christ through the Church. (Mt.16:17-19, Mt.18:18)

A Born Again has no assurance of receiving God’s grace

A Christian through the Sacraments is assured of receiving sanctifying grace. (John 19:34)

The list can go on and on it is up to you if you want to be a Born Again with their unbiblical beliefs and traditions. Or become a Catholic a true Christian a follower of Jesus Christ.

    1. Paganong Katoliko,

      Haven’t you read:

      But now the righteousness of God has been manifested apart from the law, though testified to by the law and the prophets, the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe. For there is no distinction; all have sinned and are deprived of the glory of God. (Rom 3:21-23)

      Except for the Lord Jesus Christ, the Blessed Virgin Mary and the Harbinger, John the Baptizer, all have sinned – Catholics, Protestants, Muslims, Jews, etc.

      The Catholic Church, being the household of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and foundation of truth (1 Tm 3:15), is the No. 1 Enemy of Satan. It’s no wonder then why the Catholics, especially the clergy, are the devil’s favorite prize catch to tempt and corrupt.

      Jesus said to Peter:

      And so I say to you, you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of the netherworld shall not prevail against it. (MT 16:18)

      With that decree, Satan was challenged no end, that’s why he wrought his wrath on the clergy of the Catholic Church in his vain attempt to prevail against Her.

      Since Satan is in control of the Protestants, there’s no need for him to allure them, as they are already in the bag.

    2. Responding to Gerry Soliman’s Dealing with Mr. Isahel Alfonso's Cheap Shots

      Gerry Soliman said:

      Whoa there! We don't hate Mary. We hate the false doctrines attached to her by the Church of Rome. She is also not a competition to Christ as she even tells we are to do whatever Christ says. Mr. Alfonso's assertion is no different with the assertion of the Iglesia ni Cristo 1914 that their opponents hate their founder, Felix Manalo.

      I said:

      Mr. Gerry Soliman is the compulsive liar here. He abhors Mary to the core.

      Just read his blogs on Mary and the following refutations of his enmity to the Mother of God:

      Please spare the hypocrisy; all Protestants are antipathetic to the Mother of God because they are the fulfillment of the serpent’s seed:

      I will put enmities between thee and the woman, and thy seed and her seed: she shall crush thy head, and thou shalt lie in wait for her heel. (Gen 3:15, Douay-Rheims Bible)

  3. Riel Lopez:

    If Kneeling is equivalent to worshiping then what is your reaction about those ministers ordained and kneeling in front of the executive minister ? Do they worship Ka Eduardo Manalo?
