Roman Catholics do not love the Gospel of Jesus Christ. They may claim to (as our friend here does) or fancy that they do, but in fact they do not.
There is a biblical parallel to all this in chapter 8 of the Gospel of John, where Jesus speaks to the Jews (emphasis added):
8:39 THEY ANSWERED AND SAID UNTO HIM, ABRAHAM IS OUR FATHER. JESUS SAITH UNTO THEM, IF YE WERE ABRAHAM'S CHILDREN, YE WOULD DO THE WORKS OF ABRAHAM. 8:40 BUT NOW YE SEEK TO KILL ME, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God: THIS DID NOT ABRAHAM. 8:41 YE DO THE DEEDS OF YOUR FATHER. THEN SAID THEY TO HIM, WE BE NOT BORN OF FORNICATION; WE HAVE ONE FATHER, EVEN GOD. 8:42 JESUS SAID UNTO THEM, IF GOD WERE YOUR FATHER, YE WOULD LOVE ME: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me. 8:43 Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word. 8:44 YE ARE OF YOUR FATHER THE DEVIL, AND THE LUSTS OF YOUR FATHER YE WILL DO. HE WAS A MURDERER FROM THE BEGINNING, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. 8:45 And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not. 8:46 Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me? 8:47 HE THAT IS OF GOD HEARETH GOD'S WORDS: YE THEREFORE HEAR THEM NOT, BECAUSE YE ARE NOT OF GOD. The Jews fancied that God was their Father, and they were Abraham's children. But they were not. Rather, they were the devil's children for doing the deeds and lusts of the devil. Similarly, Roman Catholics fancy that God is their Father, and they are Jesus' brethren. Now pray tell, of whom was the Spanish Inquisition and St. Bartholomew's massacre, of God and Jesus, or of the devil? Pagan Rome has slain her thousands, but Papal Rome her ten thousands!
