Wear a Scapular Correctly - and Get Into Heaven!
The dictionary defines the word 'equivocal' as meaning, "capable of two interpretations; cryptic; evasive; ambiguous." Equivocation is the technique Rome uses most cleverly to defend it's doctrine and teachings.
Psalm 119:69a says, "THE PROUD HAVE FORGED A LIE AGAINST ME," and Roman teaching and media continue to "FORGE" this "tradition" to the present day. In a 'Catholic News Service' August 6 article, "Not a magic charm: Exploring the purpose of the brown scapular," it says, "The scapular is not a magic charm of protection, (or) an automatic guarantee of salvation..."
But........doing our homework, what did the "Blessed Virgin" (in reality a demonic being posing as Mary) say to St. Simon Stock when 'she' appeared to him holding a scapular on July 16, 1251, in Cambridge, England?
'She' said, "Receive, my beloved son, this scapular of thy order, it is the special sign of my favor, which I have obtained for thee and for thy children of Mt. Carmel. He who dies clothed with this habit shall be preserved from eternal fire. It is the badge of protection, a shield in time of danger, and a pledge of special peace and protection."
The equivocation in the article is that the scapular is not, "an automatic guarantee of salvation," and the Romanist would argue "Mary" is not promising heaven here!
Yet........those promises of preservation "from eternal fire," that the scapular is a "badge," "shield," and a "pledge," are plain enough - if you're not going to hell, you're going to heaven. (The Romanist would try to further muddy the waters with talk of a "purgatory" - but the BIBLE nowhere teaches about such a place, and belief in purgatory is a denial of the work of Jesus Christ on the cross as an all-sufficient sacrifice for sin.)
The scapular is nothing but Catholic voodoo! By the way, 'Catholic Online' says of the scapular, "the scapular must be worn in the proper manner; if an individual neglects to wear it for a time, the benefits are forfeited."
The scapular vividly contrasts the difference between the Roman god and the God of the BIBLE. The Roman god is impressed by the way a person wears a strap around their necks. The God of the BIBLE is impressed with those clothed in the righteousness of Jesus Christ.
Romans 13:14 says, "BUT PUT YE ON THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, AND MAKE NO PROVISION FOR THE FLESH, TO FULFIL THE LUSTS THEREOF." The only way for a Catholic to, "PUT YE ON THE LORD JESUS CHRIST," is to repent of the sin of Romanism, reject a church that teaches baubles and trinkets can preserve "from eternal fire," and receive Christ by faith ALONE.
