On our previous article, you’ve learned the real reason why the belief of Mr. Morales is too different to the belief of Apostle Paul. We found out that Apostle Paul was part of the body of Christ (Christ is the head of the body where Apostle Paul was part of) while Mr. Morales is actually part of the body of the Pope (The Pope is the head of the body where Mr. Morales is part of). Two bodies with their own different heads are two different persons with different thinking. Therefore, members of two different bodies really have their own belief which often times contradictory to each other.

Since Mr. Morales was attacking other religion by using the Matthew 7:15-20, so in this article, we’ll be dealing with the question: Who are the false prophets referred to by Christ in Matthew 7:15-20 which says:

15 “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. 16 “You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles? 17 “Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 “Therefore by their fruits you will know them. (Matthew 7:15-20, NKJV)

You’ll notice on that verses that Christ gave his disciples the identifying marks of the false prophets. These identifying marks are:

1. The false prophets wear the sheep’s clothing.
2. The false prophets are likened to the bad trees that bear bad fruits.

Sheep’s Clothing

Obviously, the literal sheep (the animal one) wears no clothing. But Christ in that verse mentioned a sheep that wears clothes and this clothing of the sheep is the one used by these false prophets. So, who is the sheep that wears clothes? In John 1:29, this is what we can read:

29 The next day, John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, “Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world! (NKJV)

According to John (the voice in the wilderness) Jesus (Christ) is a lamb. If Christ was wearing clothes, and then he’s a sheep (lamb), therefore, the sheep that wear clothing is Christ. Now, since the false prophets wear the sheep’s clothing, and then the sheep that wears clothing is Christ, therefore, the false prophets are wearing the clothing of Christ.

Do you have ideas who are those people who wear the clothing of Christ? Well, I don’t have idea yet but not after reading the book of a Catholic Priest Enrique Demond, “Ang Aral na Katoliko”. In that book we’ll find this answer:

Ang pananamit ng paring nagmimisa. Ang paring gayak sa pagmimisa ay nakakatulad ni Jesucristo… (p195)

The clothing of the priest who say (perform) the mass. The priest who is ready to say the mass looks like Christ (My rough English translation)

In other words, Catholic Priest Enrique Demond admitted that the priests are the ones who wear the clothing of Christ. This confession of the priest Enrique Demond was supported by the answer of Mr. Javier in his book, “Saradong Katoliko Romano Kami”:

S. Nakikilala ng mga tunay na Kristiano ang mga alagad ng Diyos, na sila’y mga lalaki: at ang mga damit na mahaba ay uniforme bilang ipinakikilala nga na sila’y mga Apostol, na hindi nila inaalis ang damit na mahaba na isinuot ng ating Panginoon sa kapanahunan Niya. (p55,56)

Answer: The true Christians know who are the servants of God; they are men; their long clothing is their uniform that tells us that they’re apostles; that they always wear the clothing of Christ that he was wearing during his time. (My rough English Translation)

Mr. Javier said that the long clothing (gown) that priests’ wear is the clothing that Christ was wearing during his time. And just like we learn above, the sheep the wears clothing is Christ. It is therefore clear that the Catholic Priests are really the ones who are wearing the clothing of the sheep.

Does it mean that the Catholic Priests are the false prophets referred to by Christ in Matthew 16:18?

Well, we’ll not conclude yet. We need to find out who are those people who match the description as bad trees that bear bad fruits. These people should be wearing the clothing of Christ too.

The Bad Tree

The second identifying mark of the false prophets is that they’re likened to the bad trees that bear bad fruit. What does it mean when Christ said that the false prophets are bad trees that bear bad fruits?

In Matthew 12:33-35, this is what Christ said:

33 “Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or else make the tree bad and its fruit bad; for a tree is known by its fruit. 34 Brood of Vipers! How can you, being evil, speaks good things? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. 35 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good things, and an evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth evil things. (NKJV)

Christ compared the good man that speaks good things to the good tree that bears good fruits and the evil man that speaks evil things to the bad tree that bears bad fruits.

Since the false prophets are likened to the bad trees that bear bad fruits, and then the evil man that speaks evil things is likened to bad tree that bears bad fruits, therefore, the false prophets will be teaching evil things.

Then, what are these evil things that the false prophets are teaching? In Apostle Paul’s letter to Timothy, we can find this truth:

1 Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons, 2 speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron, 3 forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from foods which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth. (I Timothy 4:1-3, NKJV)

According to Apostle Paul, there are those who teach the doctrines of demons. Since these doctrines are of demons, then we are sure that these doctrines are evil doctrines because there is no demon that teaches good thing. And what are these doctrines? These doctrines are: (1) forbidding to marry; (2) commanding to abstain from eating some food (meat).

Now, since on the first part of this article we found out that the Catholic Priests are the ones who wear the clothing of the sheep (Christ), are they they also teaching or upholding the doctrines of demon?

We will not answer that question by our own. Let us find the answer from the books written by the Catholic Priests (themselves).

The book “Ang Pananampalataya ng ating mga Ninuno” by Mr. Rufino Alejandro is the Filipino translation of the book “The Faith of Our Fathers” by Catholic Cardinal Gibbons. And we can find this:

Ang disiplina ng Iglesia (Katolika) ay ipinatupad buhat pa sa pasimula, sa pamamagitan ng pagbabawal sa mga saserdote na mag-asawa pagkatapos na sila’y maordenan (Ang Pananampalataya ng ating mga Ninuno, p396)

The discipline of the church (Catholic) has imposed since the beginning by forbidding the priests to marry after they’re ordained. (My rough English translation)

Since the author of the original book that was written in English was the Catholic Cardinal Gibbons, then Cardinal Gibbons admitted that the priests are upholding the first teaching of the demons which is “forbidding to marry”, because according to the book, the priests are prohibited to marry after they’re ordained.

Now, let’s find out if the Catholic Priests, who wear the clothing of the sheep (Christ) and who uphold the first teaching of the demon which is “forbidding to marry”, are also upholding the second teaching of demons which is “commanding to abstain from eating some food (meat)”.

Do the Catholic Priests uphold the teaching of demon to abstain from eating some food (meat)?

We will not answer that question again by our selves. The Catholic Priest, Enrique Demond, will answer this question. This is what his answer:

Sa ikalawang utos ay ipinaguutos ng Santa Iglesia (Katolika) sa atin na magayuno at huwag kumain ng anomang lamangkati o karne sa mga araw na ipinagbabawal niya. (Ang Aral na Katoliko, p139)

The second commandments of the Holy Church (Catholic) is to abstain from eating meat during the forbidden days. (My rough English Translation)

According to the Catholic Priest, Enrique Demond, the Catholic Church is teaching to abstain from eating meat. But the Catholic Priests are the one who teach and impose this teaching to the members of the Catholic Church. Therefore, the Catholic Priests are also upholding the second teaching of demons which is “commanding to abstain from eating some food (meat)”.

The Real False Prophets

From the study we made, we learned that the Catholic Priests are the ones who wear the sheep’s clothing and the bad trees that bear bad fruits. These things are identifying marks given by Christ to his disciples in order for them to identify the false prophets.

But my question is: Is Mr. Morales one of them? Well, he’s the one who can answer this.

Note: This article is my answer to Mr. Morales’ recent email sent to me. He’s using Matthew 7:15-20 attacking the church where I’m in now even if Mr. Morales has no solid proof to back up his attacks.
