he says confess to his church
how can you receive absolution?

only one mediator? Care to comment on the outrage of the so-called reformers?

That’s called rebellion not reformation!
No authority to start new churches Matt 16:18 only Christ has this authority
He is the only mediator!

Where is your outrage on this gross attempt to usurp His authority, the authority of him being the only mediator?????????

Where’s the biblical mandate for a reformation
Christ founded the one true church and it cannot be reformed

divine revelation is from God and is immutable cannot be reformed

it is the truth!

what authority did the so-called reformers have?

They admit that they have no authority themselves for they say the Bible is the only authority!

they have no authority to say that the Bible is the only authority, but in saying it they admit freely that they have no authority, only the apostles have authority!

Keys of authority! And power to bind and loose! Matt 16:18 and Matt 18:18

Moral authority:
(Teaching)
Necessity of being taught by Christ:
Two edge sword: defining truth and condemning errors, and Interpreting scripture.

Jurisdictional authority:
(Governing / administering)
Necessity of Peter and the apostles and their successors to govern the holy church.

Spiritual authority:
(Life of Grace)
Sanctifying thru the mass and Sacraments

To admit belief in the reformation is to admit that the Catholic Church is the one true church of Jesus Christ founded on Peter, the apostles, and their successors!
Matt 16:18 Jn 10:16

Again where is the outrage against these interlopers!
Look harder...

For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;


...say, "one".

No, we all have a responsibility to teach without error.

I will not quote other men when I stand before God, but my own words will be rehearsed back to me.

Scary stuff.

Jn 16:13 applies to the church of Jesus Christ and his apostles whom he sent,
Matt 28:19 we the people are to be taught

That's fine, but the Apostles etc, are not qualified to mediate between God and man....

Jn 20:21-23 says different
As my father sent me, I send you
Same power authority and mission

He was a stray RCC priest that started seeing the errors of the RCC and publicly explaining them.

Brave man.

Amen, so the RCC priest is not in the mediatorial role concerning anything towards God. only the man Christ Jesus actively mediates. He alone is our confessor.

Do you really? Schools, hospitals , the dignity of the individual, Gospel taken to the ends of the Earth...

Monuments to the Glory of God... What monuments to God's glory has America built?

Peace be with you!
As you may know, my denomination also has schools, hospitals, clinics, disaster relief all over the world, second in size to the Catholic Church with less than 5% of the member support, and yes, those things are great of they are leading people to God and to good health. But none of those things, neither the buildings and cathedrals and churches and castles etc etc not the master's paintings, statues, and so called monuments, none of them go to heaven. You will go to heaven with only one thing.
The character you develop during your time here. That is the only thing of value that God is glorified by. You develop a good character, the sharing of the gospel and the truths of the kingdom become the fruit thereof.
Your monuments will be turned to dust at His coming.
