Verse by Verse Teaching | Revelation  

I used to be catholic and used to practice those Catholic prayers but I then I saw the light. I Stopped praying to Mary and saints, rosary praying, but I can't say the same for my family, I have tried to preach the true gospel and urged them to read the bible for themselves but all in vain. But as for me and my younger dear brother, we are born again bible believing christians.

This is the very best study of Revelation,

Pastor Gary, there is only one church in my area/district, that's the Catholic Church. So, growing up, that's the church I attended, but it never entered my heart or soul. As I grew older, I stopped going to church because I felt like a hypocrite, and I was ashamed of myself. Then I got lost, and a friend introduced me to an online church that turned out to be teaching legalism and the keeping of Sabbath on Saturdays and the Jewish holy days, etc. But I am thankful because it led me to leave the Catholic Church and opened my eyes to many things. In my pursuit, finally, I listened to Billy Graham. Now, I attended the local Anglican church, listened to podcasts and online service, and also read the Bible. I am so glad the Lord saved me.

I too came from the works and it has taken a life time to be delivered from this sad way of loving a beautiful wonderful savior. My 85 yr old brother who is the one who brought us 3 girls out of Catholicism not without a big family war but he ended telling our old partners and saving them! You know most of the world is catholic and I pray! Thank you pastor for knowing and sharing the hurt of coming from catharsis! So glad I found you or Jesus brought me here!

Thank you for posting your teaching. God is working. We just started reading revelation as a family. The Holy Spirit guided me to your teaching and we wanted you to know that. My parents just left the Catholic Church as my brother did prior. Our eyes are open and are praying for my other brother and his wife to seek God and not through man. We will pray for all of you and we welcome prayers for our family. Especially Rob Katie Ronnie Joe Robert Michelle Adam Terry Julie Amelia Sam Matt’s. ( we are a big Italian family😉) God be with you.

Thank you so much for daring to speak the truth concerning the Catholic Church! I was raised Catholic and I remember barely, the Latin service. When I was 15 I went to a Baptist church and I skipped school one day and went down and bought a little Bible which I hid in my room. When my parents found it they went crazy and I was thrown out of the house and put into a group home for about six months. I had to return without my Bible but as an adult I left the Catholic Church and so did my family! Praise the Lord!

Thank you Pastor for a very detailed study. I appreciate your efforts by which you make it easy for us to understand the Word of God. A good teaching about Roman Catholic church and we are able to understand that salvation is through Grace and Faith in Jesus Christ not through our works. Thank you once again.

Pastor You sure explain everything in such wonderful detail. I really can understand. Thank you so much.

THANK YOU FOR EXPLAINING THE CATHOLIC CHURCH & IDOLATRY. I GREW UP THAT WAY & MISSED SO MUCH. SO GRATEFUL I LEFT & BECAME AN EVANGELICAL CHRISTIAN. THANK YOU PASTOR.

Thank you Lord for guiding me to this wonderful teaching which I truly enjoyed and understood. I wish I could hear a sermon like this earlier in my life.

*AMEN!* *May God Bless you Pastor* THANK YOU FOR THE MESSAGE OF GOD

A few Catholics don't even know the bible scriptures or it's stories. I am constantly telling my mother that Catholics do a lot of idoltry. Hope they hear. Many blessings and great teaching Pastor!

These teachings are exactly what I needed, thank you for allowing the Lord Jesus Christ to use you in this manner.

Thank you for your courage in speaking truth.

Thank you Pastor Gary i was a devoted Catholic before and i practiced all the rituals and traditions but i Praise God for His amazing grace. I am so grateful you explained so clear every single verse. God is awesome! You are God sent to us. Thank you for your life Pastor. 🙏

28:00 Roman Catholics don’t know what they believe, your pot roast analogy is perfect. I walked away from the Catholic faith when I was 15 because I just felt it wasn’t right, I have recently turned back to Christ and found a biblical church

Thank You so much, what a gift of teaching I have never understood revelation- this is the most concise, honest, clear - truthful teaching I have heard about such a controversial book Thanks so much

Pastor G: Thank you, you are such an excellent teacher especially in the hard to understand books like Revelation. I really appreciate you inserting the historical facts/background.

Hello Pastor Gary, I am a former Catholic. They believe when the priest says the words of consecration, "This is my body" and "This is my blood," that the bread and wine become the body and blood, soul and divinity of Jesus Christ. Idolatry for sure, but that's why they panic if a drop of wine lands on the floor.

Thanks to God for not keeping his elect in the dark in this age, guiding us to the truth of his word through his messengers. God increase pastor Gary

THANK YOU PASTOR GARY,,I ALWAYS WONDERED WHY CATHOLICS DO THESE PLAYERS TO PEOPLE,,AND NOT GOD,,JESUS CHRIST,,YOU EXPLAIN REVELATION SO WELL,,GOD BLESS PASTOR GARY 🙏 🙌

Excellent exposition from the bible my knowledge of which is growing steadily , Gary Hamrick from cornerstone church Leesburg Virginia, grateful for all, keep it coming .

Yes! Thank you for enlightening me about the Catholic beliefs. I, too, was raised Catholic, but I didn't know how to explain their differences.

Thank you, Pastor Gary! Wonderful session.

I agree so much with your comment to read your Bible. It seems like a simple thing but it is so necessary for understanding on your own. I wish I would have read it long ago in its entirety. Love your videos! Thank you.

Thank you! !

Praying for the dead IS in one of the books that has been dropped from the Bible's we have now. 1 Maccabees 12:42,44

So much detail love it

Thank you, thank God for your teaching, I am Catholic and some things you have said are very true. Some Christians in Catholic like myself believe the Bible more than what the church will teach at times, I believe in reading the Bible myself, I don't want to defend the church, I am the first to acknowledge that the church has some big mistakes, all churches has mistakes, but the true church are the ones who believe in Jesus Christ as a son of God and also God. Is it possible to be a true Christian inside Catholic church or not?

Thank you 🙏 God bless

Yes, as a Catholic child I was taught to let the communion wafer had to melt in our mouths because a little boy chewed it and his mouth filled with blood...now it's chewed! They were full of such stories. A little boys arm shrivelled because he didn't make the sign of the cross properly.

God only approved of two churches Smyrna and Philadelphia

Until Gutenberg invented the printing press the Bible was not widely available to everyday people, so of course the scriptures were transmitted orally. The Canon of scripture was not even settled until the Catholic church settled it in the 4th century---and Martin Luther took it upon himself to take out several books of scripture that had been in the Bible for over 1000 years. The Catholic Church has MANY problems, but I would encourage people of faith to find out for themselves what the Catholic Church actually teaches. It can be found in the Catechism of the Catholic Church. If you are a Catholic and you worship Mary, or the saints, or if you believe the priest stands between you and Jesus Christ, you have TOTALLY misunderstood the faith. The Catholic Church teaches that Jesus Christ died for our sins, rose from the dead, is the only way of salvation, and that we are saved by God's GRACE, through faith --a faith which is made evident by our works (see the book of James). Salvation is not earned. If you are a Catholic and you believe something besides this, you have got it wrong.

You have called a spade a spade🎉

If you don't understand Genesis you'll never understand revelation as it was in the beginning it'll be so in the end

Read John chapter 6 regarding, not figurative. If Jesus can turn water into wine, who can doubt Jesus power to give us his body and blood in the Eucharistic?

Nice history lesson pastor. When did your church begin?

Is Cornerstone a non-denomination church or Babtist? When was Cornerstone church created? There is a Cornerstone church in my area, and it is Babtist. Just wondering also, if John was imprisoned due to his faith, how did he get these writings out, after he passed.

Kissing pope's foot ? He has to stay foot for all these people to kiss him .... Thank you pastor Maranatha

Is there not an angelic messenger that gives the message TO whoever pastors a church? wouldn't THAT be the angel of that church? the Spirit is either in the church or its not, you can FEEL when the spirit is not in a church when you have a relationship with Christ Jesus, right??? I'm losing something calling the Pastors 'Angels'...cuz SO MANY AREN'T, and that destroys that church, based on personal experience with all I've seen in my 60+ years of being a Christian...just asking...🤔🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

What is the difference between this guy's teaching of Revelation compared to Shepherd's Chapel Revelations teaching

Interesting, but I was hoping to hear about the church in Pergamos, not about the Roman Catholic Church.

There is a floor in your theory of church time line. If Thyartira was the Protestant reformation then Christ’s words would be rebuking the Protestants not the Catholics.

What is the hidden manna and white stone in Rev 2:17?

Have you got this teaching in booklet form to share this to a home group. Would be very interested to buy.

What about Judaism? When did this get a pass?

Who is New John in the Revelation ?

He didn’t explain about the white stone & our new name or did I miss it

How about the tradition of Christmas? Why can't Christian churches let go of celebrating Christmas? Encyclopedia Britanica and wikipedia said Christmas came from a pagan tradition. It is not written in the Bible. Is Santa Clause written in the Bible? Christmas tree is written in the Bible. Jeremiah 10:3-4. We were not instructed in the Bible to celebrate Christmas. We were instructed to commemorate the death of Jesus. Christmas was invented by the Catholics so why do Christians still celebrates Christmas? Is Christmas Biblical? Early Christians don't celebrate Christmas.

We have really enjoyed the History lessons it’s been interesting, it’s a shame your eyes are fixed on Catholic idols instead of examining if there are idols in your own life and in the lives of those who listening. Christ gave the letters that our hearts may be examined not to a Pharisee thanking God we are not like the Catholic tax collector.

I think you need to speck more about revelations. Your speech about revelations was so interesting, with the history part, until you brought your own opinions in. Leave your own opinions out and let the history speck for it's self.

Disingenuous portrayal of the Catholic Church

I laughed so hard when he mentioned rapture around 2 minutes in the video. From there, I know he's already wrong. Rapture's not biblical. I'm not keen in this so-called studies and radical individual interpretation.
