And there is no "Roman" Catholic Church today. Go back and READ post #68 where I already gave you a lesson on this term . . .

WRONG. At the Last Sipper - Jesus prayed fervently that His Church remain ONE - as He and the Father are ONE(John 17:20-23). He didn't pray for the perpetual splintering that occurred in the 16th century and continues to this day.

EVERY member of the clergy had Apostoolic Succession during this time. Just because there were 2 men sho falsely claimed the Papacy for themselves doesn't "change" this fac. Apostolic Succession is a BIBLICAL concept. We see it in Acts 1, when the Apostles gathered to choose - NOT a replacement...

Nope - not at ALL Do YOU believe Jesus lied when He compared His very SELF with His Church to Saul on the Road to Damascus? Acts 9:4-5 And falling to the ground, he heard a voice saying to him, “Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting ME?” And he said, “Who are YOU, Lord?” And he said, “I am...

Then produce the document. The Romans were STICKLERS for dociments and Decrees. If you can't - you're just another anti-Catholic liar . . . FIRST century Bishop, Ignatius of Antioch, a lifelong student of the Apostle John wrote the following about the Cathollic Church at the berginning of the...

Nope. I believe in ACTUALLY trusting in Scripture and not just pretending to, like you Sola Scripturists. Scripture tells us that Jesus gave final earthly Authority to His CHURCH - not to Scipture itself (Matt. 16:18-19, Matt. 18:15-18, John 20:21-23). He told them that the Holy Spirit would...

ONLY to those ignorant of all things Catholic - like YOU. A Liturgical Rite is largley a a matter of cultural difference - NOT doctrinal. Do your homework before making these kinds of idiotic statements . . .

This is an empty a statement as me asking YOU if you see Sola Scriptura in a bowl of ice cream. One has NOTHING too do with the other.

Bad men do NOT equal bad Church. Are you forgetting that Jesus chose Judas, whom He called a "devil" (John 6:71)? True faith requires us to look beyond those bad men whom Jesus warned would arise from within His followers (Matt. 7:15-20).

I've seen you guys post verse after verse in a desperate effort to support your man-made doctrine of Sola Scriptura - yet NONE of those beautifuol verses mentions a thing about this fallacy. It's as bad as trying to use the Parable of the Prodigal Son to support abortion . . .

Show me where the BIBLE instructs us to break away from Christ's Church because we "disagree" with the leadership. As to the sale of Indulgences - this was NECVER a doctrinal teaching of the Catholic Church. it was an ABUSE by some. Men like the German cleric, Johann Tetzel, whom Luther...

Correct - vecause there us NO such thing as the "Roman Catholic Church. It is simply called, "The Catholic Church". "Roman" simply refers to the largest Liturgical Rite within the Catholic Church. There are about TWENTY Liturgical Rites, including the Melkite, Maronite, Byzantine, Coptic...

You should take something for that cough. While you’re doing that – crack open your Bible and turn to 2 Macc. 12. Oh, that’s right – your Protestant Fathers deleted that Book, along with 6 others – in part, because of the blatantly “Catholic” things taught in them. Allow me to educate you . . ...

WRONG again. You're trying to force your false, man-made beliefs about Scripture onto Scripture itself. 2 Timothy 3:14-17 says plainly that the Scriptures are able to give you the wisdom that LEADS TO salvation through FAITH which is in Christ Jesus. NOWHERE does this even IMPLY That Scripture...

In other words - you're NOT equipped to anser ANY of the points I made. Perhaps, you should step aside, then and allow others who ARE equipped to argue in YOUR stead. PS - Don't make me show you the typos in your OWN posts - like I did last time you put me on "ignore" . . .

Not only COULD the Apostles assign Authority - the DID assign it with the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Ummmmmm - how do you think THEY made Matthais an Apostle in Acts 1?? WHY do you think THEY laid hands on those whom THEY appoinyed as Overseers (Bishops)?? WHY, at the Council of Jerusalem...

Not when you read the response in post #42 . . .

Then, can you answer some of them - because they were asked of YOU. How about just the first two, for starters . . . How can we know what is scripture? How can we know what is not scripture?

WRONG. The Bible says that Scripte is PROFITABLE for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness (2 Tim, 3:16). It does NOT say that it is sufficient. Jesus equates His very SELF with His Church (Acts 9:4-5), which Scripture calls the FULLNESS of Christ (Eph. 1:22-23) and the...

Actually - do YOU know the answers to any of these questions?
