She left the Catholic Religion
for Jesus

Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you.

II Corinthians 6:17

Our articles on Roman Catholicism elicit passionate responses from a lot of people--Catholics and professing Christians alike. The following e-mail is from one of our readers named Tara. Tara was reared Lutheran and had recently joined the Catholic religion when she visited this website. She wrote and we exchanged a number of e-mails over time. Tara is now saved, attending a Bible-believing church and Bible study. People like this young lady make all the slurs and put downs worthwhile. It's been neat to see how the Lord is doing a work in her.

The context of her email--she was trying to witness to a Catholic acquaintance...

I compare [him] to myself, when I was studying the Catholic religion and thought it was the right way for me to go, I prayed to God EVERY night to tell me if it was the right way or not. Exactly one week after I converted (last April) I read your homepage on how Catholics aren't Christian. I felt a huge pit in [my] stomach. God told me then and there what I was doing was not acceptable, and I got out of the religion!! I know God led me to your homepage and to the truth!!

Please keep in mind that this is a partial list and our information on Catholicism continues to grow, so please check out our index. Our goals in publishing articles on Roman Catholicism are to: [1] See Catholics saved and [2] Equip Bible-believers to share the gospel with Catholics [3] Show potential Catholic converts the false doctrine of the Catholic religion as it continually, and thoroughly, shows itself to be an enemy of the Word of God--we want these people saved.
