Rend Collective endorse the blasphemous Roman Catholic Mass

1 Peter 3:18: “For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit.”

The allegedly ‘Christian’ rock band Rend Collective have given their support to the Popish blasphemy of the Mass by performing at a ‘Christian’ summer camp where the God-defying sacrifice is offered.

They were part of the musical entertainment laid on by the organisers of the ‘Soul Survivor’ camps held in Peterborough and Stafford.

In a ‘Leaders Handbook’ provided on the Soul Survivor website, it is stated that, on the final day of the camp, when a Communion service is held, “Catholic Mass will also be available”.

You can see this outrageous fact for yourself by looking at the image below, an excerpt from the leaders handbook.

This is something we highlighted back in February and warned against, yet Rend Collective have continued on in their path of mean ecumenical compromise.

As we did back in February, we will remind everyone, including Rend Collective, of what the Roman Catholic catechism teaches about the Mass.

It says: “Because it is the memorial of Christ’s Passover, the Eucharist is also a sacrifice. In the Eucharist Christ gives us the very body which he gave up for us on the cross, the very blood which he ‘poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins’.”

Rome claims the Mass is the offering up of a sacrifice of Christ.

This runs totally at odds with what the Bible teaches.

Hebrews 10:11-12 says: “And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins: But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God”.

Christ was offered once, He is not sacrificed repeatedly in the Mass, it was a once for all sacrifice.

If we deny that, we deny the gospel as it is Christ’s sacrifice at Calvary which means we may be saved.

Rend Collective, by being happy to take part in a summer camp which offers up such a blasphemous ‘sacrifice’, serve to bring dishonour to the cause of Christ, regardless of how many people like listening to their music.

The ‘Soul Survivor’ camps are ran by Mike Pilavachi, a dedicated ecumenist whom we have previously featured on this page.

In addition to arranging for the blasphemous Mass to be served up at his camps, he has previously been pictured with two leading heretics in the church throughout the world.

They are the Mary worship supporting Arch-apostate of Canterbury, Justin Welby and sodomy-supporting Royal wedding preacher Michael Curry.

And Mike Pilavachi was pictured with them (which you can see, below) at the chief celebration of the utterly ecumenical ‘Thy Kingdom Come’ prayer initiative which is backed by “that Antichrist”, the Pope.

So it is little surprise to see him arranging for the central act of Romanist worship to be incorporated at the camps he runs.

It is, however, very distressing to see it nonetheless.

The same can be said for Rend Collective, not least because of the amount of people, especially the young, over whom they have tremendous influence.

Rend Collective, by their actions, such as performing for the Pope in Dublin last year and now playing at summer camps celebrating the Mass, are telling a generation of young people that it is ok, indeed a good thing, to mingle with the false religion of Rome.

Rend Collective should be using their prominent position to help educate a generation of young people about the dangers of compromising in your walk with God, instead they are promoting compromise.

What a sad state of affairs.

Dear reader, won’t you even speak out against such wilful and repeated ecumenical compromise and help challenge Rend Collective for their failure to stand against religious error.

Psalm 94:16 asks two vital questions which are every bit as relevant today as when they were written.

“Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? or who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?”

Rend Collective have resolutely refused to rise up against the evildoers or stand against the workers of iniquity. They have chosen to stand foursquare alongside them.

Therefore, who will stand against the workers of iniquity?

The voices against apostasy and religious error are fewer and hose who are seem to be quieter than in days gone by.

Let the condemnation of the children of Israel by God in the days of Ezekiel not be that of our day and generation.

Ezekiel 22:30 says: “And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy it: but I found none.”

Let us not stand idly by as such damage is being done to the cause of Christ, with the perpetrators claiming it is being done in His name.

Let us ever follow the Scriptural command of Jude v 3 to “earnestly contend for the faith” and abide by the command of Ephesians 5:11.

It says: “And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.”

Let us be unafraid to reprove the unfruitful works of darkness and take our stand for God and against the false teachings of Rome and those who side with her.

Rend Collective to perform at ‘Christian’ camp celebrating the Papist Mass

The leading ‘Christian’ rock band Rend Collective (pictured, above) are to take the stage at three allegedly Christian summer camps which will offer the Roman Catholic Mass to those in attendance.

Rend Collective will perform at the Soul Survivor summer camps to be held in Peterborough and Stafford in England in July and August.

In a ‘Leaders Handbook’ provided on the Soul Survivor website, it is stated that, on the final day of the camp, when a Communion service is held, “Catholic Mass is also available”.

Let us not forget what the “Catholic Mass” is.

The Catholic Church catechism says this: “Because it is the memorial of Christ’s Passover, the Eucharist is also a sacrifice. In the Eucharist Christ gives us the very body which he gave up for us on the cross, the very blood which he “poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.””

So they claim the Mass is a sacrifice of Christ, despite the Bible saying the sacrifice at Calvary was once and for all.

Hebrews 10:11-12 says: “And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins: But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God;”

They also claim the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist, saying that the priest transforms magically the bread and wine to the actual body and blood of Christ.

Apart from the practical aspect of the implications of what it makes a person who eats the body and blood of another, there is also the resolution struck by the early church leaders about the consumption of blood in their correspondence with the Gentiles after disputes sprang up over the implications of the Jewish law for them.

Acts 15:28-29: “For it seemed good to the Holy Ghost, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things; That ye abstain from meats offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication: from which if ye keep yourselves, ye shall do well. Fare ye well.”

Blood was never to be consumed, yet here is Rome teaching that its adherents drink the physical blood of Christ.

And this is what Soul Survivor is facilitating at its summer camps.

Soul Survivor is ran by a character who has previously featured on ‘Protestant Revival’, Mike Pilavachi (pictured, below).

We highlighted him at the time he performed, for that is what it was, at Causeway Coast Vineyard Church in Coleraine, County Londonderry.

His then-imminent arrival was greeted with enthusiasm by one of the key figures at Causeway Coast Vineyard, ‘Papist’ Peter Lynas, whose tweet celebrating his appearance is pictured below.

And this man who each year, since at least 2016, has facilitated the blasphemous practising of the Mass at the events he runs, is someone who ‘Papist’ Peter Lynas is holding up as a spiritual example to those who attend his church.

Rend Collective, meanwhile, are of course no strangers whatsoever to consorting with Popery.

Indeed, last August, when “that Antichrist”, the Pope, visited Dublin, they were part of the musical entertainment laid on for the Mary worshippers and Pope exalters in attendance, which you can read about by clicking here.

Then a short time later they told a transgender individual on Twitter that they considered it a “sad thing” that certain churches wouldn’t allow them to be a preacher or worship leader.

This transgender individual was challenging them on performing at an event held by Franklin Graham, son of ecumenical evangelist Billy Graham and, to his great credit, a strident opponent of sodomy.

Rend Collective’s response was this: “… in an attempt to foster unity we try not to be selective in who we partner with under the banner of the gospel.”

That lack of selectiveness has been demonstrated yet again for all to see.

Rend Collective have stedfastly refused to abide by the Scriptural command to remain separate from sin (2 Corinthians 6:14-17) and to reprove the unfruitful works of darkness (Ephesians 5:11), even when confronted with their betrayal of God’s Word by this page and others.

Questions also must be asked of the discernment of ‘Papist’ Peter Lynas in linking himself to a man who arranges for the central blasphemous act of Romanist worship to be held at the event he runs.

What does Peter Lynas think of the man he supported bringing in to give spiritual direction to the attendees at Causeway Coast Vineyard arranging for Christ to be sacrificed again at the events he hosts?

Does Peter Lynas think the Mass is an authentic, appropriate form of worship?

Will he be happy to welcome Mike Pilavachi back to Causeway Coast Vineyard in future?

What do churches who are members of the Evangelical Alliance, which Peter Lynas runs, think of his association with and support of men who arrange for the Roman Catholic Mass to be held?

There are serious questions, too, for Bangor Elim Church, in County Down, from which Rend Collective were born, as they will have the band back in May to perform at two concerts they are hosting on consecutive nights.

Is Bangor Elim happy for their most famous members to be engaging with events promoting Popery?

They could not but be aware that Rend Collective were part of the musical entertainment for the Pope’s visit to the Republic of Ireland last year, so one must conclude they are happy to be tainted by the blasphemies of the Roman Catholic Church.

What a wretched situation this is on so many levels.

Dear reader, please do not allow yourself to support the compromising ways of Rend Collective, separate yourself from the Evangelical Alliance and all churches within it, thus sending a message to ‘Papist’ Peter Lynas, Rend Collective, Bangor Elim, Mike Pilavachi, Soul Survivor and every member of the Evangelical Alliance that you will not be caught up in their rejection of God’s Word.

A stand ought to be taken and indeed a stand must be taken against these characters and their refusal to abide by God’s commands.

Spread the word, share this article widely, shout it out from the rooftops that this religious treachery will not be carried out in your name and, most crucially, it will not be carried out in the precious name of God the Father, God the Son or God the Holy Spirit.

Jeremiah 14:14: “Then the Lord said unto me, The prophets prophesy lies in my name: I sent them not, neither have I commanded them, neither spake unto them: they prophesy unto you a false vision and divination, and a thing of nought, and the deceit of their heart.”

‘Papist’ Peter Lynas welcomes Rome-loving charismatic Mike Pilavachi to Causeway Coast Vineyard

A well-known charismatic preacher and keen enthusiast of ecumenical fellowshipping with the blasphemous Roman Catholic system is to be the guest of honour tomorrow (Sunday) at Causeway Coast Vineyard.

Mike Pilavachi, who runs the charismatic, ecumenical ‘Soul Survivor’ church in England, is to take the stage at the church which is backed by the leader of the Evangelical Alliance, ‘Papist’ Peter Lynas.

Back in May, Mike Pilavachi was one of the main speakers at the main celebration in London of the brazenly ecumenical and Romish blasphemy embracing ‘Thy Kingdom Come’ prayer initiative.

The event was originally conceived by the Arch-apostate (though he probably prefers Archbishop) of Canterbury, Justin Welby, so one can be sure of the rotten roots of that event. The picture below shows Mike Pilavachi with the Arch-apostate of Canterbury and Bishop Michael Curry, the American apostate who preached at the wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.

Indeed, for that event, which Mike Pilavachi enthusiastically endorsed and which is designed for all denominations of so-called Christians, including Roman Catholic, there was devised a booklet entitled ‘Journey With Mary’.

It is described as being “for those who have a devotion to Our Lady to pray ‘Thy Kingdom Come’. It is a guide to praying with Mary for a fresh outpouring of the Holy Spirit”.

Indeed, during the 11 days of the ‘Thy Kingdom Come’ initiative, there were daily devotionals from the Arch-apostate of Canterbury and Cardinal Vincent Nichols, the Roman Catholic Archbishop of Westminster.

What a ghastly mess it is, but there was Mike Pilavachi up on stage beside that Arch-apostate Justin Welby back in May giving the whole God-defying event his blessing.

And tomorrow he’ll be spreading his message of easy-believist ecumenical claptrap to the north coast area of Northern Ireland.

We’ll just remind Mike Pilavachi and indeed ‘Papist’ Peter Lynas of what the Bible has to say about the Papal blasphemy of prayer to Mary.

1 Timothy 2:5: “For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus”.

Hebrews 7:25 says: “Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.”

So Jesus is the “one mediator” between God and men, He “ever liveth to make intercession” for us and we are saved by coming to God through Christ.

There’s not one verse of Scripture to justify the worship of, or prayer to Mary.

So why are Mike Pilavachi and ‘Papist’ Peter Lynas happy to associate themselves with such blasphemies?

That is, of course, a question for both men to answer, and we would encourage readers to pose it to them.

Another question for Mike Pilavachi would be to ask him why he was preaching to what he describes himself as “Catholic charismatics” in Malta back in 2011?

He tweeted (and we picture the tweet below) on 2nd July, 2011, the following: “Blown away by the Catholic charismatics in Malta. Such a love for Jesus and openness to his Spirit”.

Before any members of the pedantry brigade proffer the risible excuse that he was trying to convert these Roman Catholics, we would advise them to look at the tweet again.

He was impressed by the Roman Catholics’ public expression of religion. He was happy to call them Catholics, so he saw no need for them to change their religion.

This is despite the Roman Catholic faith being filled to the brim with lies and deceits.

We have listed them on so many occasions, yet the message sadly still appears to have failed to get through to many who read this page.

We have mentioned the worship of Mary already, but the main issue is the fact that Rome refuses to teach the Biblical way to be right with God, which is by faith ALONE.

Not only does Rome refuse to teach that, adding on its own grubby laws of sacramental merit, it pronounces its curses to this day on any who teach salvation by faith alone.

Their teaching is an outright rejection of God and His Word.

Ephesians 2:8-9 says: “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.”

Titus 3:5 says: “Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost”.

But Mike Pilavachi, happy to endorse or at least turn a blind eye to this spiritual wretchedness, will be the star turn at Causeway Coast Vineyard and ‘Papist’ Peter Lynas has stated on his Twitter page that he is “looking forward to this”.

Of course, ‘Papist’ Peter Lynas has an ever-lengthening ecumenical rap sheet, which includes eulogising the ecumenical evangelist Billy Graham, who told Roman Catholics coming forward for spiritual guidance to return to the evil clutches of Rome.

Not only that, he stated his support for compromising alleged Protestants running down to Dublin to do obeisance to the Pope and he gave his enthusiastic backing to the ecumenical ‘Healing The Land’ prayer initiative.

And the former pastor of his Causeway Coast Vineyard church in Coleraine, Alan Scott, who oddly enough is praised to no end in a recent tweet by Mike Pilavachi, said he was “all in” with the Pope in a meeting at Causeway Coast Vineyard.

Dear reader, please do not be deceived by the smooth words and attractive to the senses approach of such speakers and such movements.

1 John 4:1: “Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.”

Jeremiah 5:31: “The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests bear rule by their means; and my people love to have it so: and what will ye do in the end thereof?”

Many people like to hear the endlessly positive message of the Vineyard Church, Mike Pilavachi and many others.

They don’t want to hear about the depravity of their sin, of their wretchedness before God, of the certain judgment and lost eternity in hell for those who don’t truly repent of their sin.

Instead, they love the message that tells them of what big plans God has for their lives, how they were “made for so much more” and other generic, empty statements designed to appeal to our ego and excite our emotions, which amount to the religious equivalent of a fortune cookie.

Look to God for His Word to us, not to some charismatic who tells a collection of funny stories, teaches a life lesson and draws a verse out of the air and out of context to give an air of God’s authority to their ramblings.

2 Timothy 2:15-16: “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.”
