The Roman Catholic Church, which claims infallibility in its Councils and theological teachings, clearly and emphatically denies the biblical gospel. The Council of Trent, still in operation, declares:
6th Session, Canon 9: If anyone says that the sinner is justified by faith alone, meaning that nothing else is required to co-operate in order to obtain the grace of justification...let him be anathema.
6th Session, Canon 12: If anyone shall say that justifying faith is nothing else than confidence in the divine mercy which remits sins for Christ's sake, or that it is this confidence...2019-01-1939 minDeuteronomy - Third Part - A guide through the wilderness of life.Every Word of God is Pure.Two choruses we used to sing as kids:

A child is taught:
(i) That through “baptism” as a baby he was made “a member of Christ, the child of God and an inheritor of the kingdom of heaven” - is this based on Scripture?
(ii) Godparents “promise and vow” solemnly before God things in the name of a baby being “baptised”. Does the Bible teach that someone else may swear to God on my behalf anything which will affect my future?
These are import...2012-05-2049 minLamb of God (Fowey Fellowship)You Must Be Born From Above.Today we are introduced to Nicodemus, a leader amongst the Jews and a Pharisee who came to speak to Jesus by night, . Had he not come to seek out Jesus we would have missed one of the most interesting and challenging portions from our Lord’s ministry explaining the need for all to be “born again” or “born from above”. Jesus says this new birth is the only way of entry into God’s kingdom! The only way, no compromise, no exceptions: except a man be born again he cannot see the kingdom of God!2012-05-0930 minLamb of God (Fowey Fellowship)The Bridegroom.Jesus clearly describes himself as the Bridegroom who would go away but we know that he later shows that he will return to take those who love him to his Father’s house.

Our Lord described John as being particularly special “Among those that are born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist”. Yet John was a humble man whose sole mission in life was to glorify the Coming One. May each of us live in like manner to glorify the Lord Jesus th...2012-05-0950 minLamb of God (Fowey Fellowship)You are not of this world.This talk has been adapted from one given in 2005 as part of a series on the Second Coming entitled Mystery of Iniquity.

We feel that it is perhaps even more relevant now than when first recorded.2012-05-091h 02Lamb of God (Fowey Fellowship)Pagan Hallowe'en.mp3Is Hallowe'en just a load of fun or is there a sinister darker side to it all?
