Pope Sixtus II was martyred in 258. There was a vacancy until another Pope could be elected – and that was St. Dionysus. You see, this was during the early Christian Persecutions. This doesn’t mean that the line was “broken”. It had a gap because the Pope was murdered by the Romans. There was still a succession of Episcopal hierarchy in place. The same goes for the gap between Marcellinus and Marcellus in 306. This happened during the 2nd year of the Diocletian persecution.

And, by the way - if you are a Christian and you're not Catholic or Orthodox - you're a Protestant.

YES IT DOES MEAN THE LINE WAS BROKEN!

It's not a fault of the catholic church... But it does mean you can't claim the line is broken.

NO I AM NOT A PROTESTANT IF I AM NOT A CATHOLIC!

Catholics like to say that because the like to say protestants are rebellious children of the catholic church. I am not going to give them that power. There isn't a catholic on earth or otherwise who will Lord over me

Nobody is trying to "lord over you" - but a fact is a fact:

Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary
Protestant - ˈprä-təs-tən-ˌt
1) a member of any of several church denominations denying the universal authority of the Pope and affirming the Reformation principles of justification by faith alone, the priesthood of all believers, and the primacy of the Bible as the only source of revealed truth;
2) a Christian not of a Catholic or Eastern church

YOU are a Protestant - period.

As for the unbroken line of succession - WHO is talking exclusively about the papacy anyway??
The Catholic Church has an unbroken line of succession that goes all the way back to the Apostles. YOUR sect doesn't.

The Apostles were the first Bishops (Epoiskopos). They ordained more priests and bishops and those bishops ordained more priests and bishops and so on.
There is simply no getting around that fact. And just because some of the Popes were martyred and there wasn't somebody who immediately took their place doesn't affect the line of Successive Authority the Church has had since the beginning.

Sorry Born Again.... Its just hard to read some of this stuff and not reply.

It's best not to spread lies in the first place - then they wouldn't have to close the threads.
I'm only here to expose the lies you guys have been spreading . . .

Well it certainly is a black eye to the Catholic faith that there are a number of pedophiles and riff raff in the priesthood.

I think its terrible, but I have never held it against Catholics. Yet I long for the day when just one Catholic will apologize or at least say.... That's messed up and that ain't me.

No... We get, "well look at the Protestants!" not taking responsibility, just justifying their bad behavior.

As for the inqiusition... Same thing. If ONE catholic would ever admit the truth and ask forgiveness.... I would forgive the whole Catholic Church for child rape, homosexuality and religious persecution.

But lets get down to biz. The whole thing about Catholics having an unbroken line of succession is a total farce. Peter was mot the first pope. Nore was the line unbroken. In fact it was broken a few times.

How about some FACTS instead of your OPINION!!!

Sex abuse spans spectrum of churches: http://www.csmonitor.com/2002/0405/p01s01-ussc.html

Scandal creates contempt for Catholic clergy: http://blogs.denverpost.com/hark/2010/05/25/scandal-creates-contempt-for-catholic-clergy/39/

Protestants can no longer dismiss abuse as a ‘Catholic problem: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2015/may/29/protestants-abuse-catholics-methodist-church

Forgotten Study: Abuse in School 100 Times Worse than by Priests: https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/forgotten-study-abuse-in-school-100-times-worse-than-by-priests

Priests Commit No More Abuse Than Other Males: http://www.newsweek.com/priests-commit-no-more-abuse-other-males-70625

Sexual abuse by ANYONE is a sin and intolerable.

Are you talking about The Protestant Inquisition? How about a short history lesson:

Reformers in England and Ireland formed their own ruthless inquisitions against Catholics and against other sects of Protestantism.

Luther and Calvin preached the right of the state to protect Protestant society by purging it of false religion with many being banished and executed for “heresy.”

Conservative estimates put Catholic executions in England and Ireland in the multiple thousands with many more fleeing to avoid execution. What was the crime they were accused of??? Refusing to convert to Protestantism.

Learn your CHRISTIAN history. The good and the bad of it. Stop bashing your Catholic brothers in Christ.

No - there are Protestants (like you), Catholics and some who are something other than Christian.
And, if you knew your Bible and your history - you would know that Catholics were the very FIRST Christians . . .

Have you not read

1Pe 2:4 To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious,
1Pe 2:5 Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.
1Pe 2:6 Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded.
1Pe 2:7 Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner,
1Pe 2:8 And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.

So why are you so offended by Christianity, te hdisciples where "Christians " because teh yfollowed Jesus, these men,

Act 10:44 While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word.
Act 10:45 And they of the circumcision which believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost.
Act 10:46 For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter,

They where "christians" not catholics, not protestants you know this bit

1Co 1:11 For it hath been declared unto me of you, my brethren, by them which are of the house of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.
1Co 1:12 Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ.
1Co 1:13 Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized in the name of Paul?

why do you insist on division???

you know who it was that teh romans where sending to teh lions?/Christians, because thee where no catholics, REad your bible that word is not in there.

You know why we are christians??

1Co_10:4 And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.

and why so many are offended by Him

Rom 9:32 Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone;
Rom 9:33 As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and rock of offence: and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

I am a Christian in Christ I follow no man

Rev_14:4 These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb.

For He said

Joh_14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

Joh_3:19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

Again He said

oh_15:4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.

This is a "christian" Forum, cant you read??

You charge ME with wanting division - yet YOU fail to realize that it was Protestantism - not Catholicism that began the splintering that plagues the Body of Christ to this very day.
Study your history.

The Catholic Church was the ONLY Christian Church for 1000 years until the East-West split.
Until you can prove that to be wrong - your revisionist rubbish is as impotent as ever. In short - show me another Christian Church that existed during that time and you MIGHT have something . . .

Finally - you ARE a Protestant who follows the warped teachings of the cultish "aggressivechristianity.net" with its "Generals" instead of Bishops (Episkopoi) and Priests (Presbyters).
There are only THREE types of Christians:
1. Catholic
1b. Orthodox (Catholic and Orthodox division is mostly a matter of Authority)
2. Protestant

Anything else is simply a pseudo-Christian sect like the JWs, Mormons, and MANY others who deny the Trinity.

No it wasnt "rvelation" tha tthings tha tyour chruch does not have
To the Church in Ephesus
To the Church in Smyrna
To the Church in Pergamum
To the Church in Thyatira
To the Church in Sardis
To the Church in Philadelphia
To the Church in Laodicea

Dont know why you have such a problem with Christians, Jesus loves them for they only follow Him not mens doctrines

Mat_15:9 But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.
Mar_7:7 Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.
Col_2:22 Which all are to perish with the using

after the commandments and doctrines of men?

and

Rom 16:17 Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them.
Rom 16:18 For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.

Olease not not one church

Rom 16:16 Salute one another with an holy kiss. The churches of Christ salute you.

You should read your bible and stop making up stories.

If my typing is a problem to you than you really have problems.

And this is utter nonsense coming from a Protestant.
The main pillars of Protestantism are man made doctrines and precepts.

- Sola Scripture - Nowhere is this supported in Scripture.
- Sola Fide - Nowhere is this supported in Scripture.
- "Generals" in the Church - Nowhere is this supported in Scripture.

Here are some more man made precepts that many Protestants follow:
- "Invisible" Church
- Accepting Christ as "personal Lord and Savior"
- Limited Atonement
- Imputed righteousness
- Altar Call
- Infant Dedications
- Once saved, always saved

Don't talk to me about "man made" anything until you clean your own house.
Unlike YOUR sect - the Church has God-given Authority - that WHATEVER is ordains on earth will also be ordained in Heaven (Matt. 16:18-19, Matt, 18:18, Luke 10:16, John 16:12-15, John 20:21-22).
