"From Tradition to Truth..."
What a wonderful story is that of Richard Bennett, a former dominican priest in the church of rome, who was brought out of papal darkness and into the Truth of the Biblical Gospel. Here is a small excerpt from his testimony @ BereanBeacon.org:
"I returned to Vancouver, B.C. and in a large parish Church, before about 400 people, I preached the same message. Bible in hand, I proclaimed that “the absolute and final authority in all matters of faith and morals is the Bible, God's own Word.” Three days later, the archbishop of Vancouver, B.C., James Carney, called me to his office. I was then officially silenced and forbidden to preach in his archdiocese. I was told that my punishment would have been more severe, were it not for the letter of recommendation I had received from my own archbishop, Anthony Pantin. Soon afterwards I returned to Trinidad".

The reason I posted this excerpt is because I live in the "archdiocese" that Bennett was forbidden to preach in. And I remember when the archbishop jimmy, dressed like Constantine, came to the roman temple that I was raised in to perform the sacrament of "confirmation". Anyway, it is always interesting, but obviously not surprising, when a roman leader silences a person for preaching Biblical Truth. Bennett's statement, "the absolute and final authority in all matters of faith and morals is the Bible, God's own Word", is like fingernails on a chalkboard to a catholic leader. We should not be shocked that a roman archbishop cringes when finding out that the truth of the sufficiency of God's Word has been preached to his followers. We can only pray that at least one of those catholics were listening to Richard Bennett the day he spoke the truth that is so reviled by the propagators of popery. [rcc]
