"The
Holy Mass is the central act of Catholic worship"
'Without Mass there would be no Catholic Church'
Christ-Mass
The Catholic Church teaches clearly that
she is infallible/indefectible and spotless in the promulgation
of her sacramental rites and sacred laws imposed upon all. It
is not possible for the Catholic Church to promulgate a sacramental
rite that is invalid, impious, harmful to souls, or evil. In fact,
the Council of Trent has hurled an anathema ("let him be
accursed") against anyone who would dare to suggest that
the Church's sacramental rites are an incentive to impiety: (Council
of Trent, Session 22, Canon 7 of the Sacrifice of the Mass, promulgated
by Pope Pius IV in 1562)
Likewise, Pope Pius XII taught authoritatively:
“Certainly the loving Mother [the
Church] is spotless in the Sacraments, by which she gives birth
to and nourishes her children; in the faith which she has always
preserved inviolate; in her sacred laws imposed on all; in the
evangelical counsels which she recommends; in those heavenly gifts
and extraordinary graces through which, with inexhaustible fecundity,
she generates hosts of martyrs, virgins and confessors.” (Pope
Pius XII, Encyclical Mystici Corporis, par. 66 (1943):)
Transubstantiation - The change of the substance
of bread and wine
into that of the "real
presence" [actual flesh and blood] of the Body and Blood
of Christ

at Mass offering the Eucharist "host"
THE MYSTERY OF
THE EUCHARIST IS VERIFIED IN
THE SACRIFICE OF THE MASS
Sacrifice of the
Mass
"The word Mass (missa) first established itself
as the general designation for the Eucharistic Sacrifice
in the West after the time of Pope Gregory the Great
(d. 604)"Catholic Encyclopedia [http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/10006a.htm]
WHEREAS, Hebrews 10:12 says: "but
this man (Christ), after he had offered ONE SACRIFICE for sins
FOR EVER, sat down on the right hand of God"

The blasphemous "Christ's Mass" shortened
to "Christ-mas" -- The Roman Catholic "Christ's
Mass" is a special mass performed in celebration of Christ's
birth. In this mass, Jesus is considered both the priest and the
victim, represented by the Catholic priest who offers Him as a
sacrifice each time the mass is performed. In offering this "sacrifice,"
the priest believes he has the power to change the bread and the
wine of the Communion into Jesus' literal flesh and blood, requiring
the people to worship these elements as they do God Himself. This
is obviously a denial of the gospel, and thereby, a false gospel
(a re-doing of the sacrifice for sin -- Heb. 9:12, 24-26; 10:10,12,14).
Yet, many who cry out all year long against the blasphemous Roman
Catholic system, at year-end embrace Rome's most blasphemous abomination
of them all -- Christmas!

In 368 A.D., the Bishop of Rome, during the sessions of
the Council of Trent, created a new word to "explain" the mass.
It was "transubstatiation", meaning the priest has the power to
change the bread and wine into God Almighty (the literal, actual
body, soul and blood of Jesus Christ. Canon Law and Dogma by reason
of ordination, the Priest is granted two powers: to forgive sins
and to perform mass. These place him in the position of Jesus
Christ, according to the Roman Catholic teaching. This blasphemy
claims that the priest has the power to pull Christ down from
heaven to repeat the crucifixion. [ The Heythrop Journal Volume
3 Issue 1 Page 3-14, January 1962]
Pope Paul II Holding the Monstrance
THE MONSTRANCE
"Also called ostensorium, this is the special vessel
for presenting the Eucharistic Host for adoration by the faithful.
It is the portable shrine wherein the Blessed Sacrament is placed
at the ceremony of exposition. The monstrance may be made of any
metal, but mostly it is of gold or silver, solid or plated.
Since the sixteenth century, when it came to be
shaped like the sun, surrounded by rays, the monstrance has evolved
to a degree that it may be of any suitable shape or size. However,
by dignity it should be of high art in design and decoration.
It is obligatory that there be a small cross on the top of the
monstrance (S.R.C. 2957), and it is proper that it should not
be ornamented with small statues or representations of saints.
The lunette, bearing the host, is placed into the
monstrance...."The Catholic Encyclopedia, Revised and Updated,
Monstrance, p.398 Notice: "shaped like the sun and brillant" and
is to be "adored by the faithful" - This is nothing more than
Baal worship of the sun, for those who have ears to hear - hear
you who are adoring and bending your knee and signing yourself
with the cross!
"With what indignation must the Lord look down upon that apostate
harlot, called the Romish Church, when, in all her sanctuaries,
there are pictures and images, relics and statues, and poor
beguiled beings are even taught to bow before a piece of bread
{in the shape of the sun). I have seen thousands adore the wafer,
[note: the "wafer" is now called the "host"
i.e. Jesus Christ] hundreds bow before the image of the
Virgin, scores at prayer before a crucifix, and companies of
men and women adoring a rotten bone or a rusty nail, because
it is said to be the relic of a saint. Let us, above all, never
have any complicity with this communion of devils, this gathering
together of the sons of Belial: and since our God is a jealous
God, let us not provoke him by any affinity, gentleness, fellowship,
or unity with this Mother of Harlots and Abominations of the
earth. Renounce, my brethren, every ceremony which has not Scripture
for its warrant, and every doctrine which is not established
by the plain testimony of the Word of God." (Spurgeon) [note
