I understand you do not agree with the doctrine of transubstantiation. However when criticizing the Catholic Church I encourage you to call us out on things we ACTUALLY DO. No one in the Church worships the monstrance, therefore it is not an idol.
Protestants often attack Catholics for things that are purely untrue. Next time don't just listen to your pastor, do some research too.
The Lord said, if you would have Known me, you would have Known my Father also.
Your religion BREAKS His Father's Torah to establish their religion, it causes people to be spiritually 'brainwashed' and never leading them Grace and Salvation and Eternal Life.
This is an Ancient Abomination from Paganism!
READ YOUR BIBLE!!!!!
My argument to you however, is that no single Catholic worships the Monstrance, but rather the Person of Christ in it - and therefore is worshiping, or least believes to be worshiping, Jesus.
Please cite scripture to demonstrate that the practice of Benediction is idolatrous. Again, don't make claims you can't prove.
Matthew 5:17 "Don't think that I have come to abolish the Torah or the Prophets. I have come not to abolish but to complete.
Isaiah 42:8 I am ADONAI; that is my name. I yield my glory to no one else, nor my praise to any idol.
1 Corinthians 8:7
But not everyone has this knowledge. Moreover, some people are still so accustomed to idols that when they eat food which has been sacrificed to them, they think of it as really affected by the idol; and their consciences, being weak, are thus defiled.
You have this "knowledge"; but suppose someone with a weak conscience sees you sitting, eating a meal in the temple of an idol. Won't he be built up wrongly to eat this food which has been sacrificed to idols?
Does the Roman Priest hold up the wafer toward a Crucifix duriing Transubstantiation?
Is the Crucifix an idol?
Is the wafer a food offered to an idol?
Is the wafer an idol?
Yes, yes, yes and of course it's an idol. They are all idols!
But as for the cowardly, the untrustworthy, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those involved with the occult and with drugs, idol-worshippers, and all liars - their destiny is the lake burning with fire and sulfur, the second death."
You must be washed clean by the Blood of the Lamb.
You must be 'Born Again' in order to have Eternal Life.
You are putting your TRUST into IDOLS and not the Word of God that will lead you to Repentance.
Romans 10:17 So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ. ESV
Have you ever heard the Word of God preached?
Have you ever heard the Gospel of Salvation?
It has absolutely nothing to do with religion my friend.
Mark 1:15 "The time has come, God's Kingdom is near! Turn to God from your sins and believe the Good News!"
