peteregwu: Are you saying God never said "its an abomination to pray with candles or anything?" Why then do you believe that? Isnt it pagan to hold_on to teaching that are not biblical anymore? |

henrisco: Who said the millions of christians killed by the roman catholic church were pagans? That is the biggest lie of our generation. The millions they killed were the true christians that chose to obey GOD Instead of the tradition of the catholic church. Do you know that the papacy wanted to elimate the bible completely? Whoever was seen with bible was either killed or jailed. This evil act was carried out for 1260 we serve GOD not the Papacy! See who is talking about repentance. What do you know |

Richieboyn: The question was not meant for me. I would like to know the importance/work of the candle during mass. Do you use it to just see in the night or was it an adopted pagan practice? |

italo: am agaist using any object in prayer before God. maybe u didnt read my post carefully. i was just givin an example that some will tel u that d evil they are committing is not in d bible, therefore to them it is right before God, so long smokin, prayin to mary etc is not in the bible. u can see their excuses. just because d bible dos not include smoking or condemn it dos not mean God is not against it, He is against it. same with other evil things, so long we have the spirit of God in us, we are able to identify evil. |

italo: I can't find find it in the bible and the apostles never used candles to worship God in spirit and in truth. So why do you use candles during mass/prayers? |
Re: In Defence Of Catholics (Accusation On Worshiping Statues) by Nobody: 6:49pm On Apr 09, 2013 |
Catholics use candles just like witches and the occults do. |
Re: In Defence Of Catholics (Accusation On Worshiping Statues) by Nobody: 6:58pm On Apr 09, 2013 |
peteregwu: Thank God you are the one against using objects in prayer and not God.Once God does not complain you can all go to blazes. To think that this came from someone who beleives his church apron works miracles is the height of hypocrisy. |

Segeggs: Catholics use candles just like witches and the occults do. These anti-Catholics who call themselves "Christians" know everything about occult and witchcraft. Many of the things they say, I have no idea of. You wonder how they know all these things. Could they be cultists and witches? |

italo: I don't know why you are running around the question. I asked, why do you use candles during mass? If there is no reason or it has no meaningful significance, just say it. |

Missonas: Birthday candles have their significance. Occultic candles have their significance. What is the significance of the candles used by catholics even in a church with overflooded light? |

pls tell me, why will someone make use of candles to pray? for God sake it is idolatory! we are to pray by faith, and not using Any idol or images. We pray by faith in the name of Jesus. If we use candles, then we divert our faith to images or objects. Our faith is in God through Christ Jesus. Hebrews 11:6 KJV. "But without faith it is impossible to please him : for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him." We depend on Jesus for all good things and not the candle. Does it mean God must see the candle light to give answer to your prayers, that is a big false. Pls guys, dont be involved in this demonoc act. It is occultic people that uses candle and also witches and wizards. My grand father was a herbalist, i was also born in a white garment church before i left there. warning: anyone involved in this act is seen by God as a idolater. And such one will never enter the kingdom of God. Jesus also gave guidelines of how to pray. He never said we should use any object or pray to any images. please read, Matthew 6:9-13 KJV. "After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. [10] Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. [11] Give us this day our daily bread. [12] And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. [13] And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen." Only when we pray in the name of Jesus will our prayer reach God. 1 Timothy 2:5-6 KJV. "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; [6] Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time." as we read, it is not by candle or images but through Christ Jesus. So, It was Jesus that died for us and not mary, candle, peter, paul or our pastors. Acts 4:12 KJV. "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved." Without Jesus we can do nothing and God can do nothing for us without Jesus in your life. John 15:5 KJV. "I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing." Please exclude using any names or object in your prayers, except Jesus! if you disregard this, then what makes you different from a witch, wizards, harbalist, or even occultic person, they all do the same. what makes a christian different is Jesus and Jesus alone without mixture. |
