Truth about RCC

Testimony of Rita

I  was born in an hispanic family. my mom  converted from  protestant to catholic so my sister and I could go to a parish school. my dad was a catholic in name only. His  mom was a spiritualist who was in the occult .....it was her life and she died unsaved.   I went to catholic school  high school.....I loved Jesus and still do. I used to spend long time in prayer in church and yes I also wanted to be a nun!   but that was not to be GOD had me in His hands all the time even when I was deep in sin. I was a devoute catholic and went to mass every sunday and went to confession too every few weeks.  The only thing that I could not get into was praying to Mary  and praying the rosary....otherwise I believed and  followed my church because after all the church was the voice of GOD on earth.....OR SO I THOUGHT !!!!!   

       I drifted away from the things of GOD in my twenties and during this time in my life I was in a deep depression. I left and empty hole inside.....I came to realize that I needed GOD......then I was invited to a charasmatic prayer meeting and there I found JESUS  I experienced HIS presence like I never did be for JESUS  and the peace was overwhelming. I felt clothed in His presence and encased by His love.

       I BECAME SO HUNGRY FOR  HIM AND THE THINGS OF GOD THAT I COULD NOT GET ENOUGH OF THE BIBLE........SUDDENLY SO MANY GOSPEL STORIES CAME TO LIFE TO ME. 

        I stayed in the church for many years but as I read and learned things I realized the word of GOD was  not the same things that I was  taught as a child by the nuns. To me the church remained the true church but a church with flaws......all churches had flaws and the roman church was no different in my mind but......... there was somethiing going on.......I knew there had to be more to my WALK with the LORD, going to mass and receieving communion was not enough for me........I needed more of him...... I think of my walk with JESUS when I was a catholic as  being on a date........I knew there was more and now my walk with Him is like a wedding night.

       YOU SEE WHEN I WAS A CATHOLIC I DID NOT KNOW JESUS .......ALL I KNEW WERE  CATECHISM QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS. I DID NOT KNOW HIM AND SO MANY OTHER STORIES OF SCRIPTURE SO HENCE IT WAS A COURTSHIP NOT A MARRIAGE.

       I knew there was so much more to my walk with the LORD.........I knew that i could get closer and go into a deeper relationship. I just didn'y know how and everytime I went to commuoin  I knew deep inside that it was not enough......I WANTED MORE OF HIM.

      AFTER MANY YEARS I FINALLY HAD TO MAKE A CHOICE..........I WAS NOT GROWING IN MY RELATIONSHIP WITH THE LORD.......I WAS NOT BEING SPIRITUALY FEED BUT WHEN I WENT TO THE BORNAGAIN CHURCH I BECAME ALIVE AND MY SPIRITUAL EYES BECAME OPENED.......SO I LEFT THE DEAD CHURCH AND FOUND A JESUS THAT LIVES AND NOW IS AT THE CENTER OF MY LIFE. JESUS IS REAL!!!!!!!!!!!

       This is not to say that M have arrived. my sppiritual walk is a journey which will go on till I die..........but I am a richer Christian now beacuse I have  left a church that HID JESUS from me by putting itself between me and HIM.

                     That is why I was .......once catholic !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
