Thank you

During the reign of the Catholic totalitarianists they actually denied the word of Christ to yearning Christians. That's historical fact. Christians were forbidden to own or read Bibles.
Only an authoritarian "father" (in Nazi terms, the Zelienleiter) was allowed to read from the Book, and even then he did it in a language unintelligible to the poor Christian souls hungering for God's Word. This maintained the cult's authority, and aided discipline during such efforts as the Catholic "Todeskrieg" against the Albigensians.

Shocking and horrifying! Clearly, they were denying people direct access to God's Holy Word because, if they
did read it, they would quickly learn that the Cathylick church was acting in opposition to the Lord and harvesting souls for Satan's realm
