::::See the article [[Great Apostasy]]. The Protestant Reformers disobeyed, went out, and preached another gospel than the one they had received in the church, perverting the gospel of Christ. They proclaimed that the gates of hell had long prevailed against the Church and that the Holy Spirit had utterly departed from the Church, and that the [[Beasts of Revelation|Beast]] [[Antichrist]] and [[Satan]] together ruled as the spirit of the Church turning the Church into the [[Whore of Babylon]]. The very desire to live a good life by humbly receiving the sacraments of grace in worship and doing good works pleasing to God—''justice, mercy''—was condemned as [[Blasphemy|blasphemous]] [[Piety|impiety]] and bondage to the law, meriting only the curse of God, and more dangerous than sin. --[[User:IndependentSkeptic|IndependentSkeptic]] ([[User talk:IndependentSkeptic|talk]]) 17:49, 28 August 2020 (EDT)
