Satan

 "So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them" Genesis 1:27.

"Then God saw everything that He had made, and indeed it was very good..." Genesis 1:31.

Satan is trying to change God's creation by using illusions of the mind and crafty, cunning schemes to deceive people just as he always has since he used the serpent to deceive Eve. God created man and woman and said His creation was good. Sin is an issue of the heart and God did not create sin. What happens inside of us affects what happens to us and outside of us. Decisions we make have both temporal and eternal consequences. The only solution to deal with bad decisions and our sins is to believe in God's Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, for forgiveness of our sins. Jesus does not say we can continue practicing sin or living in sin. He calls us to turn from it and repent of it. Satan is busy at work trying to deceive people, manipulate Scripture, and turn people from the truth just as he has from the beginning. The world is becoming more and more accepting of sin and open with it. Satan's time is running out and we are closer to the return of Christ and judgment day, than we have ever been.

Immaculate Conception

Catholics believe Mary was overshadowed by the Holy Spirit (Luke 1:35), and that Mary was a pure and holy "ark" fit to carry the Son of God. Just as the ark of the Lord back in Moses' day carried elements of the Old Covenant within, so Mary carried the Author of the New Covenant in her. The Immaculate Conception isn't a virgin birth. It is neither Biblical nor necessary. Catholics believe Mary was conceived in the normal way, but God made her immune from imputed or inherited sin. For as long as she has existed she has been free from sin. This allowed her to be the" second Eve" to give birth to the " second Adam" see  (1 Corinthians 15:45). Overshadowed by the Holy Spirit (Luke 1:35), Mary was a pure and holy "ark" fit to carry the Son of God. Just as the ark of the Lord in Moses' day carried elements of the Old covenant within, so Mary carried the Author of the New Covenant in her.

Mary needed a savior like everyone else (Luke 1:47).

I got the information from the websites listed below for you to read. Hopefully, they will make you more aware of the false teachings of the Catholic church.
