You can dance around my points and pretend to not understand, all of that will never change the bottom line, that you teach and follow a different gospel. Because Paul wrote the letter to the Roman church doesn't mean he wrote it to yours. Beside I nor you or anyone else need to argue about the history, lets simply look at what you teach today and your fruits. BTW Daniel describers you as two legs not lungs.
[font=lucida sans unicode']What we have been teaching today is what we have been teaching for thousands of years. All you have to do is compare our doctrines to the Eastern Orthodox Church and you will find that both our doctrines are 99% similar. For example, both the Roman Catholics and the Eastern Orthodox Church practice all 7 sacraments. We are the two oldest Christian Churches and our doctrines are almost identical. Therefore, if anyone minimized or took away the Gospel, it would be those who were newly born about 500 years ago. [/font]
Ask yourself what is the only vestige that still survives Rome today?
YOUR CHURCH that's whats left of the First Roman empire
I might add that your eastern leg also still exists though you claim dominion over it.
[font=lucida sans unicode']Our Church stands today only because of Christ's promise to us. Christ did promise to be with us until the end of the world. God does not go back on HIs promises. Christ also promised that the gates of Hell will not prevail against His Church. Well, we know for a fact that the gates of Hell have even been inside the Catholic Church......BUT Christ was true to His word.....even inside the Catholic Church the gates of Hell did not prevail. The Catholic Church prevailed and continues to stand for 2000 years. And this is the reason why despite the Roman Empire, we are still left standing because of Christ's promise to us. He promised that even the gates of Hell will not prevail against HIs Church.[/font]
