In this message, the speaker shares a personal journey out of Catholicism and explains the key reasons behind that decision. The discussion focuses on religious ritual, community life, spiritual fruit, Sabbath vs. Sunday worship, church tradition, church councils, and the contrast between institutional religion and what the speaker describes as first-century Christianity.

Church councils and man-made tradition

First-century Christianity and biblical practice
