A ‘friend’ posted this on his FB page today, and while I am thrilled he’s found God, and turned his life around, I’m heartbroken he’s so anti-Catholic. I’m convinced some evangelical ‘pastor’ has gotten his hooks in him, and twisted his mind…

THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH JUST A FREINDLY REMINDER OF HISTORY
Constantine the Great or Constantine I (born c. 280 - died 337 A.D.) remained a pagan, was never a Christian, and was the first Pope.When Christians were on the verge of growing, Satan’s forces started to move. Persecutions, under Satan’s command, hit the early believers in Christ. But instead of destroying them, they grew in numbers. Constantinus Maximus was NOT really “Christianized” for he still worshipped the sun god “Sol” (Roman name for Nimrod) even until his death in 337 AD. He also had been ordering the killing of the true believers who were hiding in the mountains to survive/and to protect the Word of God. And as a claim aside from the apostle Peter, Constantine was the FIRST pope. Yet the seducing spirits, just like every pope that followed him, controlled him. In short, he was the second coming of NIMROD.Testified records from the underground vaults of the inner Vatican tell the truth about Constantine and his family. No organization has murdered (as “heretics”) so many real Apostolic
Christians as the Roman Catholic Church! History knows no other possible organization than the RCC to fit verse
Rev 17:6.(NKJV)
I saw the woman, drunk with the blood of the saints and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus. And when I saw her, I marveled with great amazement…

There is a judgment ahead for the false church. Consider carefully that there is no false-christian organization on Earth that has EVER slaughtered real Christians like the Roman Catholic Church.
Revelation 19:1 And after these things I heard a great voice of much people in heaven, saying, Alleluia; Salvation, and glory, and honour, and power, unto the Lord our God:

I became aquainted with this kid when I was working in Texas, and we stayed in touch. I’ve tried talking to him, but he won’t listen.

I feel like I must say SOMETHING before I wash my hands of him. What do my fellow Catholics have to say about this guy’s statement? Make no mistake, he’s no friend of mine anymore. I just need a good ‘parting shot’ to lob his way. Or should I just stop paying attention?
 
A cited refutation of everything he said may be in order…

Here’s a list of Popes recognized by the Catholic Church - newadvent.org/cathen/12272b.htm

Constantine is not on the list - here are the Popes from 280 - 337

St. Eutychian (275-283)
St. Caius (283-296) Also called Gaius
St. Marcellinus (296-304)
St. Marcellus I (308-309)
St. Eusebius (309 or 310)
St. Miltiades (311-14)
St. Sylvester I (314-35)

From what I have seen, nobody is arguing Constantine was a Pope.
“And I say to thee: That thou art Peter; and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.”- Matthew 16:18
 
Ask him what credible historical source he got that information from…or was he just spitting up the same stuff someone else told him. Ask him abut these “real Christians” who were martyred for their Faith…what did they believe, how did they worship, what Bible did they use as their Authority (they didn’t have one yet), etc… He may retort with the fantasy that the RCC destroyed all the historical documents that would have supported this notion that the RCC tried to kill off “true Christians” who hid in the mountains…and his proof of this would be…oh wait…there is none…its hearsay and not accepted by any credible historian, ever.
 
Constantine was the first pope, that is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard what about all our other Popes prior to Constantine, I would ask him where he got this most ridiculous information that is so historically mutilated it only draws out his ignorance of history and the sources he chooses to believe.
 
also I would mention although Constantine in 313 established the edict of Milan which allowed tolerance from Christianity because they were being tortured on Diocletians orders. Constantine was not a very Good Christian, and is not even a Catholic saint, nor was he ever a Pope, in fact many sources state he was baptized on his deathbed.
 
Hogwash. However, many historians claim he was baptized by an Arian, although history could have been massaged by the Arians to take credit for it and claim Constantine for “one of them”.

Do onto others as you would want someone do for you. Love your enemy. Bless them, do not curse them. … ya know,… that lot of advice from Someone we claim to follow. Be like that and all will go well.

Not trying to be snarky by the way… just placing a reminder here.
 
You might retain your friendship. Living your faith well might change his perspective toward the Catholic Church.

Can you please help me, It seems that everything said here was out of Christian Charity. I’m not seeing what you think was said here that is wrong.
 
Had a nice chat with my friend today. He’s been reading Alberto Rivera. Explains alot.
 
I believe a lot of non-Catholics realize that Alberto is full of lies and misquotes.
I cannot believe so many people buy into his tripe. So many people just refuse to do their homework… I’ve never even HEARD of the guy…
 
He’s Jack Chick’s alter-ego, right, supposedly a monk who left his vows and then freed his sister from being sexually abused at her convent?
