As a rule, we must assume that people are lost until some fruit of salvation can be seen (II Cor 5:17). Generally speaking, Roman Catholics are not taught the Biblical plan of salvation. Occasionally you may meet those who have heard the Gospel elsewhere and are saved in spite of their religious system. Then, there are those who appear to love the Lord and are convinced that they are born again, but still trust in the sacraments of their church. Do not be deceived by those Catholics who profess salvation or appear to be spiritual.

ASK if they believe a person must be baptized in order to be saved. A Catholics will say “yes”, a Biblical Christian will say “no” (Eph 2:8-9). One is not saved whose salvation is dependent upon baptism.

ASK if they still pray the rosary (repetitious prayers to Mary and trusting her mediation at the time of death). If they do, they do not understand that Jesus is the ONLY mediator (I Tim 2:5 & Col 1:18). One is not saved who has not trusted Christ as his only mediator.

ASK if they still go to confession, believing their sins are forgiven through the priest. If so, they do not have assurance of Christ’s forgiveness for all their sins (I John 2:1-2). No one is saved unless his forgiveness is through Christ alone.

ASK if they still receive communion and if they believe that the mass is a true sacrifice. If so, they do not understand that the sacrifice of Christ was “once for all” (Heb 7-10). One is not saved who does not believe that Jesus Christ made the full atonement for sin (completed His substitutionary sacrifice).
