It is 100% certain you're headed for Hell ...
for rejecting the Catholic Dogma ...
Warning: There are no bishops or priests in these times
1. The Original Sin of Adam closed Heaven for all men (sanctifying grace was lost) ... Hell became the only possible destination for the immortal souls of men.
7. One can still be Catholic and get to Heaven with a proper baptism in water
[Section 7] ... believing the Dogmas ... and keeping free from mortal sin. [Section 10.1]

Against the popular heresy ... That you are saved by grace alone ...

Introduction:
1. Does the heresy identified in the title of this Section remove you from Christianity? -- Yes it does.
2. Grace ... separated from the true and Catholic Faith does not get you into Heaven. We are saved by three operations working simultaneously, (1) Faith, (2) Grace, and (3) Works.
3. Please see Section 8.4 of this site for how to identity what the Divine (from Heaven) Faith is.
4. The word "redemption" means that Heaven has been re-opened for the souls of men after it was closed by Original Sin ... the word "saved" means that your soul is either in Purgatory or in Heaven. These are two very different theological facts. If your soul is still in your body (the soul is what animates the body) then this is your proof that you are not "saved" ... the very fact that you are reading this website section is proof that you are not "saved".
5. Please see Sections 28 and 29 of this website which address in detail ... works being required for the Christian to get to Heaven. We'll address this in Sub-part I of this Section.
Caution: Do not, for any reason, set foot in any building with a Catholic sign out front, they are not Catholic Churches at this time ... they are meeting halls for the vatican-2 jew-heretic cult which was founded on 8 December 1965 at the Vatican and they will send you into Hell -- see Sections 12 through 21 of this site, there are over 200 heresies against Catholic Dogma in the "vatican-2 council" documents (the founding documents of the v-2 cult).

Catholic writing of Saint Luke 13:3 > Catholic writing of Saint Matthew 3:8 > "Bring forth therefore fruit worthy of penance." Catholic writing of Saint Matthew 4:17 > "From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say: Do penance, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand." Catholic Faith (pre-fulfillment) writing of Ezechiel 33:14 > "And if I shall say to the wicked: Thou shalt surely die: and he do penance for his sin, and do judgment and justice, And if that wicked man restore the pledge, and render what he had robbed, and walk in the commandments of life, and do no unjust thing: he shall surely live, and shall not die." Catholic writing of Saint Matthew 3:2 > "And saying: Do penance: for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand." Catholic Faith (pre-fulfillment) writing of Ezechiel 18:21 > "But if the wicked do penance for all his sins which he hath committed, and keep all My commandments, and do judgment, and justice, living he shall live, and shall not die." Catholic writing of Saint Matthew 11:20 > "Then began he to upbraid the cities wherein were done the most of his miracles, for that they had not done penance."

Catholic writing of Saint Matthew 12:41 > "The men of Ninive shall rise in judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: because they did penance at the preaching of Jonas. And behold a greater than Jonas here." Catholic writing of Saint Mark 6:12 > "And going forth they preached that men should do penance." Catholic writing of Saint Luke 3:8 > "Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of penance; and do not begin to say, We have Abraham for our father. For I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children to Abraham." Catholic writing of Saint Luke 5:32 > "I came not to call the just, but sinners to penance."

Note: So that there is no confusion with this scripture, the proper form (words) for a valid Baptism are: "I Baptize you in the name of
the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit." Pouring water over the skin of the forehead three times at the saying of each Name of the Blessed Trinity.

Catholic writing in Acts of the Apostles 20:21 > "Testifying both to judeans and gentiles penance towards God, and faith in our Lord Jesus Christ."
Note: After the First Pentecost the true Judeans and the true Israelites were baptized into the Catholic Church in that they believed the writings of the Abraham covenant regarding all the prophesies of Jesus, the Blessed Virgin, water baptism, etc. The religion of the Old Testament Israelites was the Catholic Faith unfulfilled.

S u b - p a r t C On confusing Redemption with Salvation. ~ ~ ~
After Original Sin, Heaven was (temporarily) closed for the souls of men. The Redemption re-opened Heaven for men's souls, the Redemption does not mean that Heaven was re-opened for everyone no matter what you believe -- God knows our every thought and belief as is clearly seen by the scriptures listed in Section 98 of this site.
The popular heresy is that the Redemption means that everyone who "believes in Christ" is going to Heaven or "is already saved". The problem is that ... to "believe in Christ" means to believe everything He taught, not just believe in His visitation to the world bringing redemption.
The doctrine of Christ (see Section 58 for over 20 doctrine scriptures) is what Christ taught. Since Christ identified Himself as the Truth ... if you don't believe the doctrine of Christ you don't "believe in Christ" ... you believe in a fictional non-existent "Christ" ... if this is the case it means that you are outside of Christianity, you are not a Christian.
To arrive at the doctrine of Christ you must first reject the common heresy that the Bible is the authority on faith and morals. The Bible itself states many times over that the Church is the authority on faith and morals ... this is covered in detail in Section 6 of this site. After rejecting the heresy that the Bible is the authority, this allows you to take the next step to find what the doctrine of Christ is ... as communicated through His Church.
Catholic writing of 1 Timothy 3:15 >
Catholic writing of Ephesians 3:10 >
The doctrine of Christ is the Catholic Sources of Dogma (infallible citations of the Pope in union with the bishops of the world). The De Fide (of the Faith) Dogma listed in Section 3 of this site is an Ordinary Magisterium categorizing of the Dogma. If you are opposed to any Catholic Dogma you are automatically outside of Christianity ... this means that the Redemption does not apply to your immortal soul and so you are outside the means of Salvation (the means of being saved when your soul leaves your body).
S u b - p a r t D Applying the Redemption (the re-opening of Heaven) to your soul ~ ~ ~
God re-opened Heaven in one prescribed way after it was closed by Original Sin. Christ did not re-open Heaven via any of the heretic cults ("lutheran", "baptist", "methodist", "evangelical", etc.) or via any of the pagan (un-baptized) groups ("mohammedan", "jew", "buddhist", "hindu", etc.).
There is a simple reason for this, Christ did not come back to the world in 1517 and help start the "lutheran" heresy, or assist serial mass murderer Henry VIII in starting the "anglican" heresy in 1534. Likewise Christ did not return to the world in the early 1900's and help start any of the "evangelical" groups. Additionally, these groups are opposed to the defined doctrine of Christ.
You will not and cannot apply the Redemption to your soul unto Salvation (getting to Heaven) in any of the heretic or pagan groups.
There is a simple way to correct this soul damning calamity so that you'll have a chance of getting to Heaven.
Simply follow the steps outlined in Section 2.1 of this site ... which address the subjects of conditional re-baptism and Abjuration. If you take these steps ...
S u b - p a r t E Becoming a Christian makes the writings of the Bible apply to you ~ ~ ~
The group specific writings of a group which you are not a member of ... do not apply to you.
Heretics do not subscribe to the fable called the "koran" because they are not members of the pagan group called "islam".
In like manner, since heretics are not Christians, the Bible does not apply to them ... since the New Testament is a Christian writing and the Old Testament is a writing of Christianity unfulfilled.
Heretics have simply stolen the Bible writings of the Catholic Church and state that these writings applies to them ... even though they are members of anti-Christian heretic cults.
The Catholic Church unfulfilled wrote the Old Testament (it wasn't written by the un-baptized pagans who call themselves jews, see Section 39.1) and the Catholic Church fulfilled wrote the New Testament.
It was at the Council of Carthage in 397 A.D. that ... the New Testament Canon was defined by the Catholic Church to be the 27 Books that we are familiar with, this Council also supplied a reaffirmation of the 46 Book Old Testament Canon. Please see Section 46 of this website for dozens of instances where Christ and the Apostles quoted from the Old Testament Books that many of the heretic cults discarded in the 1500's and later.
The Bible is a Catholic book, written by the Catholic Church, written by men under the inspiration of the Catholic God, to help get Catholics into Heaven ... it does not apply to any man-made heretic or pagan cults.
Further ... why do heretics believe the Catholic Church as to its definition of the New Testament Canon ... a group which they otherwise refuse association? The fact that an outside of the Bible authority had to define the Bible is more proof that the Bible cannot be the authority on Faith and Morals.
If a heretic ever becomes Christian ... it is at that point that the Christian writings of the Bible will apply to him/her.
S u b - p a r t F The Catholic writing of Saint John 3:16 ... is not getting you to Heaven ~ ~ ~
First, and of immediate importance, is the fact that Saint John 3:16 does not apply heretics or heretic cults ... since it is a Christian writing ... and heretics are not Christians. See Sections 30 and 30.1 for a chronological listing of when the popular heresies started (and who started them).
Second, heretics do not believe in Christ because heretics reject the doctrine of Christ. The sixteenth word in this scripture: "believeth" ... means that you must believe all of what Christ taught ... otherwise you, in fact, don't believe in Christ.
Catholic writing of Saint John 3:16 >
Third, regarding the the words ... "only begotten Son" ... these words are speaking of the Catholic Jesus Christ who founded the Catholic Church in 33 A.D. at the first Pentecost.
The words ... "only begotten Son" ... are not referring to the "lutheran Christ" - who was invented in 1517, by the in Hell Martin Luther
None of the above invented "Christs" exist ... so it'll be somewhat difficult for them to get you to Heaven ... only the Catholic Jesus Christ exists.
The Catholic writing of Saint John 3:16 is not about only believing in the visitation of Christ to the world ... as the following four Catholic authored scriptures bear witness to:
Catholic writing of Saint James 2:10 >
Catholic writing of Saint John 3:36 >
Catholic writing of Titus 3:10-11 >
Catholic writing of Saint Matthew 28:20 >
So, please understand the fact that Saint John 3:16 does not apply to you ... since you are rejecting a great many of the doctrines of Christ.
S u b - p a r t G The difference between Actual Grace and Sanctifying Grace ~ ~ ~
Grace is participation in the life of God ... grace is infused into the soul from the outside. This must be the case since we didn't exist 150 years ago, grace cannot be generated from the souls of men.
Actual grace is that grace which moves you toward the Sanctifying grace of baptism. Actual grace also leads you to making a free will decision to move away from and reject sin ... but it does not sanctify your soul so that your soul is in a justified state before God.
When people are in receipt of actual grace to reject sins, such as excess drinking or sins against the body ... a great many mis-interpret what this means and start running around, waving their hands in the air and calling out: "I'm saved, I'm saved" ... no you're not "saved" at this point.
I'm exaggerating a bit to illustrate the problem of confusing the two types of grace.
This very misinterpretation of actual grace ... can lead directly to confusing Redemption with Salvation ... thinking that receiving actual grace has "saved you".
Again, actual grace does not place your soul into the justified state.
Sanctifying grace is initially (see Note below) introduced into the soul by water baptism. Water baptism remits Original Sin and all actual sins committed by the person before baptism. For the baptism to be valid in a post age of reason person (after turning 7 years old) the person must believe the Catholic Faith at the moment of baptism, again please see Section 2.1 of this site.
If after baptism ... you fall into any type of heresy against the Faith you are no longer Christian so you are no longer is a justified state. If this happens simply Abjure your heresy following the steps in Section 19.1 of this site.
If after baptism ... you fall into sins against morality you are still a Christian but are no longer in a justified state and must confess your sins according to the direction on Section 10.1 of this site ... to return to a state of grace in the eyes of God.
Note: Before the Catholic Church lost all of it's personnel hierarchy (and all it's buildings) on 8 December 1965 to the Vatican-2 jew-heretic cult ... there were other sources of sanctifying grace via the other sacraments beside baptism. But since there is not a single priest or bishop on the face of the earth these sources of sanctifying grace are not available at this time. Even though this is the case we can still be fully Catholic and get to Heaven, please see Sections 7.4 and 13.6 of this site.
S u b - p a r t H Sources of Catholic Dogma on Justification ... that is, applying the Redemption to your soul ~ ~ ~
The Catholic Church recognized that the heresy being identified in this Section was among the heretics ... of confusing redemption and salvation and of not recognizing the difference between actual and sanctifying grace. So the Church, as has been done throughout the centuries, formally defines Dogma to help people out of these various heresies.
We mentioned above in this Section that Christ establishes doctrine. The Sources of Dogma on Justification is a part of the doctrine of Christ.
Selected Sources of Dogma which address Justification (i.e. justified in the sight of God) ...
Council of Trent, Session 6, Canons on Justification, Canon 21, 1547 A.D. -- Ex-Cathedra Dogma > Council of Trent, Session 6, Canons on Justification, Canon 20, 1547 A.D. -- Ex-Cathedra Dogma > "If any one saith, that the man who is justified and how perfect soever, is not bound to observe the commandments of God and of the Church, but only to believe; as if indeed the Gospel were a bare and absolute promise of eternal life, without the condition of observing the commandments; let him be anathema." Council of Trent, Session 6, Canons on Justification, Canon 9, 1547 A.D. -- Ex-Cathedra Dogma > "If any one saith, that by faith alone the impious is justified; in such wise as to mean, that nothing else is required to co-operate in order to the obtaining the grace of Justification, and that it is not in any way necessary, that he be prepared and disposed by the movement of his own will; let him be anathema."
Note: This Canon 9 addresses the fact that after one is in receipt of actual grace he must persue the sanctifying grace of water Baptism to get to the justified state. For a post age of reason person (7 years) one must believe the Catholic Faith at the moment of Baptism otherwise the Baptism is not valid, this is part of entering into the justified state -- see Section 7 of this site.
Council of Trent, Session 6, Canons on Justification, Canon 4, 1547 A.D. -- Ex-Cathedra Dogma > If any one saith, that man's free will moved and excited by God, by assenting to God exciting and calling, nowise co-operates towards disposing and preparing itself for obtaining the grace of Justification; that it cannot refuse its consent, if it would, but that, as something inanimate, it does nothing whatever and is merely passive; let him be anathema."
Note: The grace of Justification is the sanctifying grace of water Baptism.
Council of Trent, Session 6, Canons on Justification, Canon 12, 1547 A.D. -- Ex-Cathedra Dogma > If any one saith, that justifying faith is nothing else but confidence in the Divine mercy which remits sins for Christ's sake; or, that this confidence alone is that whereby we are justified; let him be anathema." Council of Trent, Session 6, Canons on Justification, Canon 18, 1547 A.D. -- Ex-Cathedra Dogma > "If any one saith, that the commandments of God are, even for one that is justified and constituted in grace, impossible to keep; let him be anathema."
S u b - p a r t I Against the heresy that works are not required to get to Heaven ~ ~ ~
After one becomes a Christian (i.e. enters the Catholic Church) he must do works of charity to merit Heaven. These works are also called spiritual and corporal works of mercy.
Also, the Catholic Dogma and the Catholic authored scriptures (in defense of the Dogma) state that one increases his merit in Heaven and causes an increase in grace while in the world through works of charity.
Heretics and un-baptized pagans: If you have been doing works of charity, the merit for these works will be attributed to your soul if at some point in the future you become a Christian. Since you are not Christian, any works you do cannot be a contributor to salvation or cause an increase in grace. If you follow the steps in Section 2.1 of this website, thereby extracting yourself from your non-Christian state, your soul will receive the merit for the works done during the time when you were not a Christian.

Catholic writing of Romans 2:13 > "For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified." Catholic writing in Acts of the Apostles 20:26-27 > "Wherefore I take you to witness this day, that I am clear from the blood of all men; For I have not spared to declare unto you all the counsel of God." Catholic writing in Acts of the Apostles 26:20 > "And to the Gentiles did I preach, that they should do penance, and turn to God, doing works worthy of penance." Catholic writing of Saint James 2:14 > "What shall it profit, my brethren, if a man say he hath faith, but hath not works? Shall faith be able to save him?" Catholic writing of Saint Matthew 16:27 > "For the Son of Man shall come in the glory of His Father with His angels: and then will He render to every man according to his works." Catholic Faith (pre-fulfillment) writing of Ezechiel 18:27 > "And when the wicked turneth himself away from his wickedness, which he hath wrought, and doeth judgment, and justice: he shall save his soul and live." Catholic writing of Saint Matthew 5:19 > "He that shall do and teach, he shall be called great in the Kingdom of Heaven." Catholic writing of Saint James 1:22 > "But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves." Catholic writing of Galatians 6:9 > "And in doing good, let us not fail. For in due time we shall reap, not failing." Catholic writing of 2 Peter 1:10 > "Wherefore, brethren, labour the more, that by good works you may make sure your calling and election. For doing these things, you shall not sin at any time." Catholic writing of Romans 2:13 > "For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified." Catholic writing of Saint James 1:25 > "But he that hath looked into the perfect law of liberty, and hath continued therein, not becoming a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work; this man shall be blessed in his deed." Catholic writing of Philippians 2:16 > "Holding forth the word of life to my glory in the day of Christ, because I have not run in vain, nor laboured in vain." Catholic writing of James 4:17 > "To him therefore who knoweth to do good, and doth it not, to him it is sin." Catholic Faith (pre-fulfillment) writing of Jeremias 11:8 > "And they obeyed not, nor inclined their ear: but walked every one in the perverseness of his own wicked heart: and I brought upon them all the words of this covenant, which I commanded them to do, but they did them not." Catholic Faith (pre-fulfillment) writing of Ecclesiasticus 49:4 > "And he directed his heart towards the Lord, and in the days of sinners he strengthened godliness." Catholic De Fide Dogma, Section XVI, The Last Things, Dogma No. 5 > "The degree of perfection of the Beatific Vision granted to the just is proportioned to each one's merit."
Note: The Beatific Vision is seeing God. If one makes it to Heaven, the clarity in which they'll see God depends on the amount of charity that the
Catholic does while in the world. The only thing that crosses over the boundary of death is charity ... money does not cross over the gate of death. So, if the vast majority of your focus is on money you are wasting your time.
Catholic writing of Apocalypse 14:13 > "Blessed are the dead, who die in the Lord. From henceforth now, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; for their works follow them." Catholic De Fide Dogma, Section V, God the Sanctifier, Dogma No. 28 > "By his good works, the justified man really acquires a claim to supernatural reward from God." Catholic writing of Hebrews 10:24 > "And let us consider one another, to provoke unto charity and to good works." Catholic writing of Saint James 2:24 > "Do you see that by works a man is justified; and not by faith only?" Catholic De Fide Dogma, Section V, God the Sanctifier, Dogma No. 26 > "Grace can be increased by good works."
Note: The word Grace means: participation in the life of God. Spiritual and corporal works of mercy for others can bring you grace and increase your merit.
Catholic De Fide Dogma, Section V, God the Sanctifier, Dogma No. 3 > "For every salutary act, internal supernatural grace of God (gratia elevans) is absolutely necessary." Catholic writing of 1 Corinthians 15:58 > "Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye steadfast and unmoveable; always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labour is not in vain in the Lord." Catholic Faith (pre-fulfillment) writing of Psalm 14:1-2 > 1: "Lord, who shall dwell in Thy tabernacle? or who shall rest in Thy holy hill?" 2: "He that walketh without blemish, and worketh justice." Catholic writing of 1 Corinthians 9:24 > "Know you not that they that run in the race, all run indeed, but one receiveth the prize? So run that you may obtain." Catholic writing of Saint Matthew 25:21 > "His lord said to him: Well done, good and faithful servant ... enter thou into the joy of thy lord." Catholic writing of Saint Matthew 5:16 > "So let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in Heaven." Catholic writing of Saint James 2:17 > "So faith also, if it have not works, is dead in itself." Catholic writing of Titus 3:14 > "And let our men also learn to excel in good works for necessary uses: that they be not unfruitful." Catholic writing of Saint James 2:26 > "For even as the body without the spirit is dead; so also faith without works is dead." Catholic writing of Saint John 6:28 > "They said therefore unto him: What shall we do, that we may work the works of God?"

Because his own works were wicked: and his brother's (works) just." Catholic writing of Ephesians 2:10 > "For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus in good works, which God hath prepared that we should walk in them." Catholic writing of Apocalypse 2:5 > "Be mindful therefore from whence thou art fallen: and do penance, and do the first works. Or else I come to thee, and will move thy candlestick out of its place, except thou do penance." Catholic writing of 1 Saint Timothy 5:10 > "Having testimony for her good works, if she have brought up children, if she have received to harbour, if she have washed the saints' feet, if she have ministered to them that suffer tribulation, if she have diligently followed every good work." Catholic writing of 1 Saint Timothy 5:25 > "In like manner also good deeds are manifest: and they that are otherwise, cannot be hid."

Catholic writing of Saint Luke 12:43 > "Blessed is that servant, whom when his Lord shall come, he shall find so doing." Catholic writing of 2 Saint Timothy 3:17 > "That the man of God may be perfect, furnished to every good work." Catholic writing of Apocalypse 2:26 > "And he that shall overcome, and keep my works unto the end, I will give him power over the nations." Catholic writing of Titus 1:16 > "They profess that they know God: but in their works they deny Him; being abominable, and incredulous, and to every good work reprobate." Catholic writing of 1 Corinthians 9:19 > "For whereas I was free as to all, I made myself the servant of all, that I might gain the more." Catholic writing of Titus 2:7 > "In all things shew thyself an example of good works, in doctrine, in integrity, in gravity. " Catholic writing of Saint James 2:18 > "But some man will say: Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without works; and I will shew thee, by works, my faith." Catholic writing of Saint John 14:15 > "If you love Me, keep my commandments."
Note: Including keeping the commandments (listed in this section) to do good works.
Catholic writing of Saint John 7:3 > "And his brethren said to him: Pass from hence, and go into Judea; that thy disciples also may see thy works which thou dost." Catholic writing of Saint James 2:22 > "Seest thou, that faith did co-operate with his works; and by works faith was made perfect?" Catholic writing of Acopalypse 3:8 > "I know thy works. Behold, I have given before thee a door opened, which no man can shut: because thou hast a little strength, and hast kept My word, and hast not denied My name."

Catholic writing of Saint John 14:12 > "Otherwise believe for the very works' sake. Amen, amen I say to you, he that believeth in Me, the works that I do, he also shall do; and greater than these shall he do." Catholic writing of Matthew 25:32-35 > 32: "he shall separate them one from another, as the shepherd separateth the sheep from the goats." 33: "And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on his left." 34: "Then shall the king say to them that shall be on his right hand: Come, ye blessed of my Father, possess you the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world." 35: "For I was hungry, and you gave me to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave me to drink; I was a stranger, and you took me in."
Note 1: Feeding the hungry, etc ... does not get you to Heaven if you die as a heretic or un-baptized pagan.
Note 2: Matthew Chapter 25 is about corporal works of mercy. Spiritual works of mercy (informing people how to get to Heaven) are much greater works since they are about eternity.
Note 3: If heretics or un-baptized pagans do works of charity ... these works will be merited to their soul ... if they enter the Catholic Church of the Catholic God. Failing this causes their descent into Hell from the very spot on which they die. Catholic writing of Apocalypse 20:12 > "And I saw the dead, great and small, standing in the presence of the throne, and the books were opened; and another book was opened, which is the book of life; and the dead were judged by those things which were written in the books, according to their works." Catholic writing of Apocalypse 20:13 > "And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and Hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works." ~ ~ ~ ~

Truth of the super-natural order:
Ignorance of God's Catholic Dogma ... which is being aggressively hidden with malice ... is not a "loophole" into Heaven.
