Exactly... the catholic so called "church" got started when satan decided to start his own church for the purposes of muddying the waters by bringing in all manner of false doctrines claiming it was Christian doctrine resulting in many going to hell.

What the Catholics Get Right

Salvation Plan: One covenant, fulfilled in Christ — not two tracks for Jew and Gentile
They are confused on salvation... Justification by faith. They deny the atonement through the blood of Christ, and replace it with banked merit earned by oneself, Mary, Jesus, and the saints.

Said the guy that belongs to the Adolf Hitler Nazi cult View attachment 62735

Because I quote Jesus, Paul, and Peter? ROFL! That’s how far down the Scofield-hole you are...
Actually quoting the Gospel is “antisemitic” to you.

Even though — you know… 95% of the people currently residing in Rothschild's False Israel™ aren’t Semitic
They’re all Polish, Russians, and Khazars who are about as related to Abraham as Yoko Ono. But of course, you knew that didn't you.

The Catholic church however, despite numerous claims to the contrary, was not the original church founded by Christ. Of course Paul ministered to the church in Rome while a prisoner there, and history provides abundant evidence of the sufferings and persecutions inflicted upon that church by the emperors in those early centuries.

The Catholic church which had its beginnings in Rome however was not that church that went through such troubles, holding to the doctrines of the apostles and preaching truth to power, and paying for their faithfulness with their blood. The Catholic church had its beginnings amidst compromise and syncretism as a result of the union of church and state after Constantine abandoned Rome leaving a vacant civil throne...a civil throne that was inherited from paganism, and resulted in many pagan practises being incorporated into Christian teaching. At first, this was only local. Rome was not the only Christian church in the world at that time. The gospel had been taught and embraced by that time from Britain to the far east, to North Africa and Asia. Even in Rome there was a section of the church that refused to follow the political aspirations of the local bishops I'm their quest to use the state to empower her false teachings.

Catholics like to think that their Popes are a direct succession from the Apostle Peter. The Catholic Church was formed in the 4th century organized by the Ecumenical Councils and Emperor Constantine and the Roman Empire being the power behind the Church. And the first Pope was Sylvester I.

The Catholic Pope cannot claim anymore succession from the Apostle Peter than any Protestant Preacher. That being true because their religions are based on the same scriptures. What the Protestants cannot claim is history, for that reason they do not want to admit history. The Protestants think they are right because they hold to sola scriptura. But the concept of “Bible Only” or sola scriptura is a fallacy because Christianity adopted new beliefs, like a requirement for wedding ceremonies and the moratoriums of polygamy and concubinage and slavery all occurred centuries after the biblical era and they are still learning things about women’s rights.

...because Christianity adopted new beliefs

I imagine that various Christian denominations adopted doctrines or practices that are nowhere to be found in the scriptures. However, I firmly believe that Christian doctrine should be based on sola scriptura and I assume that many Christian organizations DO stick to sola scriptura.

It's interesting to me that the Apostles referred to their movement as "The Way" and never the "universal" (Catholic) church. It's just one of many evidences that demonstrated to me years ago that the Catholic Church is one of Satan's biggest and most successful lies.

Edited to add, I cannot find any Biblical reference for the word "universal", at least not in this Bible search engine.

Can you provide an example of a prominent Christian doctrine that isn't in the Bible?

Christianity adopted new beliefs, like a requirement for wedding ceremonies and the moratoriums of polygamy and concubinage and slavery all occurred centuries after the biblical era and they are still learning things about women’s rights.

No requirement for a wedding ceremony to be married in the scriptures. And no moratoriums on polygamy and concubinage and slavery. Their fathers would be selling their daughter’s into sexual slavery.

Is there a prominent denomination(s) that preaches these non-Biblical doctrines?

non-biblical docrines? These are biblical doctrines. Any protestants that have multiple wives or concubines pretty much lay low.

I'm not disputing you. I'm just asking if you know which prominent denominations preach non-Biblical doctrines so that I can look into it further. Thanks in advance.

What does any of that have to do with my entire comment and wall of irrefutable facts?

Your “facts” Regarding Others Religious Associations, are based on “your opinion and limited understanding” of what “Others”Believe, based on Their;
A) agreeing with others Understanding;
B) agreeing with Gods Understanding;
C) agreeing with the Lords Understanding;
D) agreeing with Jesus Understanding;
E) agreeing with Christs Understanding;

While “avoiding disclosing” your “own” “Religious Organization”, “your own” “cherry-picked” verses that supposedly “Make” your Opinion “irrefutably” Factually Correct, And those you DO “name…Wrong”.

I can't comment other than to say that I put him (or her) on "ignore" due to their lack of edifying posts.

That’s kind of the point. The Bible Only is kind of a soap box thing, but it is not based on reality. The Protestants and Catholics made these changes well after the biblical era….and rightly so.

I have met Christians that have had multiple wives and some that had concubines, but no denominations.

Do you really rate that as a "prominent Christian doctrine?" Actually, most Christians I know recognise marriages whether they take place with a ceremony, or with just the couple and two witnesses in a registry office (Necessary, at least here in the UK, to satisfy the law of the land, not a Christian stipulation). Of course, a Christian couple getting married will probably wish to do so in the presence of fellow Christians.

I personally would like to see government out of the marriage business, but that's another thread.
