Roman Catholics pray in front of a “holy bone”

If you ever visit Macao, you are invited to venerate or adore the right arm of Francis Xavier, a priest from Spain.

The Bible says man shall not bow down to created things, and declare them holy.

The debate on the difference of worship of idols is a frequent issue on New That Matters. The Roman Catholic Church claim that they do not worship idols, but admit that the Vatican promotes adoration and veneration of relics, even bones.

The reader might ask:

What is the difference between worship, adoration and veneration?

The Bible does not make any distinction between these three words. Forget of adoring images or idols in the name of “god”. God of the Bible does not want his followers to even make such items, and claim created things to be “holy”.

The Roman Catholics bows down before a bone of Francis Xavier, and pray.

Neither does God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit want people to bow down in front of them.

Exodus 20:3-5
“You shall have no other gods before me.

“You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below.

You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me.

In the King James version the words “adore” or “Venerate” is not mentioned at all. In the NIV, the word “adore” appears once.

Worship is mentioned 188 times in the King James version. In the NIV, 254 times.

So the Roman Catholic explanation about a difference between the three words, are based on human wisdom and man-made doctrines.

This is the official version about the adoration and veneration, or shall we say worship of the bone in Macao.

Another place that we visited in Macao was the chapel of St. Joseph’s seminary, where a relic of St. Francis Xavier’s right arm is venerated (the other half is at the Church of the Gesù in Rome).

There are also other interesting pictures of Roman Catholics bowing down to and kissing relics.

A Catholic Bishop bow down and pray in front of a “Holy relic”. Only adoration? To all who can see, this looks like worship.
Vatican priests forces a boy to kiss a relic.
A Police officer bows, and kisses what the Roman priests claim is “Holy”.
A Catholic lady bows down, and a priest touches her head with a relic.
Catholic priest offering incense in front of a box with relics.

One of the most obvious evidence of wrongdoing, is a Cardinal bowing before a box with a relic.  This is a photo of what the Roman Catholic Church claims is a “holy man”. Cardinal Cormac Murphy-O’Connor venerates the relics of St Therese of Lisieux.”

There is not much we can do with men like Cardinal O’Connor. He seems to be a cursed man, who will refuse to repent from his worship, adoration and veneration of created things in the name of “god”. But you do not have to follow His example. Please repent, or you too will perish.

Revelation 9:20
The rest of mankind who were not killed by these plagues still did not repent of the work of their hands; they did not stop worshiping demons, and idols of gold, silver, bronze, stone and wood—idols that cannot see or hear or walk.

Revelation 22:14-16
“Blessed are those who wash their robes, that they may have the right to the tree of life and may go through the gates into the city.  Outside are the dogs, those who practice magic arts, the sexually immoral, the murderers, the idolaters and everyone who loves and practices falsehood.

Catholics in Bolivia celebrate “Day of the skulls”

One a year, the Roman Catholics take their skulls of their alters and parade them in public.

The Catholics in Bolivia celebrate the spirit of death.
The Catholics in Bolivia celebrate the spirit of death.

The Catholic Church in Bolivia is the most pagan institution on the Western hemisphere.  Not only do the Catholics in Bolivia keep skulls of their deceased family members inside their houses. They even put them up on the House altars, to be venerated and adored together with crucifixes and various Papal approved Madonna’s.

The most bizarre day on the Bolivian year, is the day the streets are full of decorated skulls. That is “The Day of the skulls”.

On this day, the Catholics in Bolivia carry skulls into a church to be blessed at the General Cemetery in La Paz. Lets take a look at some pictures:

A Catholic lady ready to pack her skull and go to Chuch to get it blessed.
The day of the parade of skulls, in the Bolivian capital La Paz.
In almost every Catholic family they keep “Holy skulls”. In the winter it is cold for them.

It has to be mentioned that the Vatican do not recognize the Day of the skull.

But the leadership of the Roman Catholic Church has not done much to stop this national Bolivian celebration.

This is the official explanation.

Dia de los Natitas (Day of the Skulls) is an ancient Bolivian ritual where skulls are decorated with flowers and pampered with cigarettes, coca leaves and other treats.

Every November 9, the central cemetery, in La Paz, Bolivia, becomes the scene of a bizarre pre-Columbian tradition, known as Dia de los Natitas.  Women carrying skulls, in decorated wooden or cardboard boxes, fancy glass cases and even in plastic bags, gather outside the cemetery to show off their skulls. They are usually decorated with flower petals (hydrangeas and roses) and covered with knitted colorful caps.

Some Bolivians believe a person has seven souls, and one of them remains in the skeleton, after they’ve been buried. Once the other souls have left for heaven, the remains are dug up and the skull taken home and cared for. If they’re not respected, skulls can bring bad luck to a household, ruin the harvest and even break up a family. But if they’re properly taken care of, you can ask the skull for favors.

The skulls are decorated in the national colors of Bolivia, decorated with flowers.
Blessings of the beautified skulls takes place inside Catholic Churches, after worship songs have brought the Papist faithful into the right spiritual mood.

The BBC has recorded the views of the archbishop of La Paz.

Earlier this month the Church called on the faithful to stop using human skulls at special mass celebrations. The Archbishop of La Paz, Edmundo Abastoflor, urged followers of the Andean rite to “let them rest in peace”.

Some inside the Church even link the practice to the occult.

However, some priests believe they have no other choice than to let people pray Catholic prayers to their skulls, and even allow them to go to church with them.

I receive them and not as enemies of the Catholic faith,” the cemetery’s Roman Catholic priest, Father Jaime Fernandez, told the BBC after giving an informal blessing to thousands of skull-carrying devotees at the cemetery’s chapel.

The Bolivian skull parade is an annual event.
I am not sure why the Bolivians are putting cotton in the eye of the skull.

Why do the Bolivians keep skulls at home?

The Catholics believe that such skulls, if they are blessed by their “holy fathers” will bring good luck to the family in the future.

The Bible is very clear that consulting the spirits of the dead is a sin, that will be punished by God our Father.

Deuteronomy 18:10-12
Let no one be found among you who sacrifices his son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft, or casts spells, or who is a medium or spiritist or who consults the dead.

Isaiah 19:3
The Egyptians will lose heart, and I will bring their plans to nothing; they will consult the idols and the spirits of the dead, the mediums and the spiritists.

That the Roman Catholic Church allow this paganism to enter the Church, with priests blessing the skull worshipers, is indeed a permission that is rooted in the occult realms.

Since the pope is a worshiper of bones and skulls, why should we put the blame on the Bolivians?

“The Holy Father” in Rome is the very “Father of the occult”.

4.000 skeletons in crypt in Roman Catholic Church in Rome

Not only Poland and Czech republic have skull chapels. In Rome it self there is a crypt in a Church with 4.000 skeletons and corpses.

In Rome there is a Catholic Church with skeletons dressed up as monks. 4.000 skulls can be found as decoration at this horrific site.

After publishing several articles about Roman Catholic adoration and veneration of bones, skulls and corpses, I decided to take a break to look into other matters.

But after I discovered photo’s from a “skull chapel” in the heart of the Italian capital, I changed my mind.

The Capuchin Crypt is a small space comprising several tiny chapels located beneath the church of Santa Maria della Concezione dei Cappuccini on the Via Veneto near Piazza Barberini in Rome, Italy.

This is the official version, that can be read on wikipedia.

The Capuchin Crypt contains the skeletal remains of 4,000 bodies believed to be Capuchin friars buried by their order. The Catholic order insists that the display is not meant to be macabre, but a silent reminder of the swift passage of life on Earth.

Described by Frommer’s as:
“one of the most horrifying images in all of Christendom” ,large numbers of the bones are nailed to the walls in intricate patterns. Many are piled high among countless others, while others hang from the ceiling as light fixtures.

Lets take a deeper look at the background history, and watch some more photo’s:

When the monks arrived at the church in 1631, they brought 300 cartloads of deceased friars. Fr. Michael of Bergamo oversaw the arrangement of the bones in the burial crypt. The soil in the crypt was brought from Jerusalem, by order of Pope Urban VIII.

This crypt in the heart of Rome is decorated with a painting of “Jesus”, skull, bones and two corpses. A tragedy, that keep non believers away from this wicked pagan religion with a “copy-cat Jesus”in its center.
The Roman Catholic priests even hung a skeleton under the roof, to be adored and venerated. The cross on the alter does make this room anything but a satanic place of worship.
Spiritual madness and insanity made the Vatican faithful make this kind of “art” to decorate a place of worship.
This is the claimed “Church” in Rome were these horrible images can be seen “live”.

As monks died during the lifetime of the crypt, the longest-buried monk was exhumed to make room for the newly-deceased who was buried without a coffin and the newly-reclaimed bones were added to the decorative motifs Bodies typically spent 30 years decomposing in the soil, before being exhumed.

My comment:

Al most all Roman Catholics have no clue about what criminal acts their priest and Bishops have participated in during the ages.

But some few of the Catholics, take pleasure in looking “art” made of exhumed human bones, and a Pope that brought soil from Jerusalem to “decorate” the floor in the crypt, inside a Church build to honor the pagan Queen of Heaven.

A Vatican approved Church, that would be a perfect place to make a horror movie.
The full picture of the skeletons dressed up as Monks.
A demonized Roman Catholic Cardinal has published a picture of him self inside this crypt.
Bishop Sean Patrick O’Malley elevated by the Pope to the rank of Cardinal.

One of these wicked men, is Boston Cardinal Sean Patrick O’Malley. He has published pictures from this site on his blog. The Cardinal tries his best to defend this wicked “art” work as “holiness”.

Take a look at his blog.

Spiritual blindness has no limits when it comes to Vatican approved Cardinals.

Headless Mary Magdalene hailed in Catholic Church in France

A skull placed inside a head of gold, with “golden hair” is paraded and adored in France as claimed to be Mary Magdalene.

The absolute nadir of spiritual perversion. Disgracing the name of Mary from Magdala.

This “reliquary with skull of Mary Magdalene”can be venerated and adored in the basilica crypt of St. Maximinin la Saint Baume in France.

This is what a blogger writes:

The supposed skull of Saint Mary Magdalene encased in a golden mask decorated by figurines. Christians believe she was healed by Jesus, and that He appeared to her after His resurrection.

Source of the above photo.

That this skull is venerated inside this crypt, is bad enough. But the public parade of this front part of a human head, is tasteless and almost beyond explainable.

French Roman Catholics parade this golden statue on their shoulders.

These Catholics claim this skull is of the first Christian witness that saw the risen Messiah. But while they parade these bones on their shoulders, the skull is hidden behind a golden mask.

The skull is covered by a golden mask, when this abomination is paraded through the streets.

They have put a front cover on the skull, to make it look like a “golden angel”. But inside the “Church”, the worshiper’s can adore and venerate the skull.

The golden mask is removed, when the golden idol is displayed inside this Vatican approved and blessed “Church”.

What a shameless disgrace. An almost not explainable spiritual perversion.

A “Church” that would fit perfectly in a horror movie. The golden statue is placed at the center of the room meant for prayer and worship.

One Christians once told me: It is better to face a devil with a true face, than a devil with a mask.

The Apostles Paul warns us about Satan appearing as an angel of light. I guess this is one of the best examples from the Roman Catholic World.

2 Corinthians 11:14
And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light.

The Bible is very clear about what kind of people who have made this kind of golden mockery of the truth.

Isaiah 44:9
All who make idols are nothing, and the things they treasure are worthless. Those who would speak up for them are blind; they are ignorant, to their own shame.

Isaiah 45:16
All the makers of idols will be put to shame and disgraced; they will go off into disgrace together.

The skull is placed on a cut of head, made of gold. Lifted up by golden demons.
Its is not easy to confirm that this skull is of a female. I guess the golden hair made the difference for the Pope in Rome.

The Apostle Jude has something to say to “certain individuals who have secretly slipped in among you” through your acceptance of the Papacy into the body of Jesus.

Jude 1:13
They are wild waves of the sea, foaming up their shame; wandering stars, for whom blackest darkness has been reserved forever.

Get out of this falsehood called the Roman Catholic Church.

If not your whole body will fall into corruption, and your soul will be filled with mortal spiritual diseases. The Vatican is surely a house of demons.

Revelation 9:20

The rest of mankind who were not killed by these plagues still did not repent of the work of their hands; they did not stop worshiping demons, and idols of gold, silver, bronze, stone and wood—idols that cannot see or hear or walk.
