(22) If it is the Lord's command that we call no religious man father upon the earth, why then does 'Father' McCafferty disobey this simple precept, which shows contempt for the Lord he claims to so love. (23) If love for the Lord is proved by obedience, why then does the Roman Catholic Church command the building, gilding and filling of their synagogues with pagan graven dolls and idols, when the divine Word stipulates idolaters will not enter Heaven? (24) If the Lord had nowhere to lay His head, a simple man of simple means, why then does His alleged Vicar live in a palace amidst treasures and sensual pleasures which few on earth experience, if he is not the Antichrist? (25) If the Lord's Kingdom is not of this earth, why then is His alleged Vicar the absolute monarch of his own country, with ambassadors, agents and spies worldwide, if he is not the Antichrist? (26) If the Lord is the High Priest who prays for His people, after offering Himself as sacrifice to His Father, why then does His alleged Vicar claim to be the High Priest - Pontifex Maximus - if he is not the Antichrist? (27) If Christ is the Head of the Christian Church, why then does His alleged Vicar claim preeminence, if he is not the Antichrist? (28) If Christ fully propitiated the Father by His alone atonement, why then does His alleged Vicar duplicate, by re-presenting another sacrifice, breaden and bloodless, to the Father, if he is not the Antichrist whose hubris knows no bounds, denying the Lord's atonement as prophesied in 1 John 2:22; 1 John 4:3; 2 John 7? (29) If the Man of Sin is prophesied to sit in the seat of supreme authority in the Christian Church showing himself to be God by his deeds and laws, why then does the Pope of Rome claim to reign supreme in the Church as Judge of all, yet is judged by no one, unto whom obedience is due and necessary unto salvation, if he is not the Antichrist? (30) If Mystery Babylon, that great city, is described as spiritual Sodom in Rev. 11:8, why then are the Roman clergy infamous for crimes against nature, if they are not limbs of Antichrist, members of the Mother of all harlots, cursed of God, destined to perdition?
