Papal front runners. If the Black guy becomes the next pope, white Republicans will scream DEI till their buttholes explode

Or God protected his message IN SPITE OF the Catholic Church's influence. Some think that Revelation's message is encoded so it would pass through the Catholic Church's hand unaltered to be available at the later time. Some think proper interpretation of Revelation says some very unflattering things about the Roman Catholic Church.

The four canonical gospels were chosen by church authorities after careful deliberation, strict and rational selection criteria, and a genuine effort to weed out other gospels that were forgeries or legendary accounts, in an effort to establish the divine truth of revelation.

The fact that Protestants are using the same the same gospels as those originally established by Catholic church authority means that in a certain sense Protestants also accept ecclesiastical authority over scriptural authority.

It's been at least 60 years since Vatican 2 that Catholicism fully accepted Protestants as brothers and sisters in the Christian faith, but you still have Evangelical MAGA morons on JPP disparaging Catholics as phony Christians.

Oh, it's not just here, either. I actually had a fundie preacher tell me that I needed to be rebaptized because Lutherans are really Christians and the baptisms we got as infants don't count. Oh, and o ur hymnss were all wrong and too much like Catholics, who also aren't real Christians.

This is just the typical apelike behavior of a group that needs to lord it over (pun intended) other groups because they need to feel superior to those others, even though to an outsider, their religions are very similar.

If you follow Christ's teachings you're a Christian;
Catholics follow Christ's teachings, therefore, Catholics are Christian.

Conversely, all JPP MAGAts follow a mammon-worshiper and rarely, if ever, act like Christians. A part-time Christian is not a Christian. Neither is a person who cherry-picks only what they like about Christian beliefs and dump the rest.

Dont get me wrong,....I harbor no I'll will toward people who belong to the Catholic faith. I'm sure most are fine people. I do however feel bad for them that they have been deceived so BADLY. They need to read the Bible more,....if they did there is no way they could possibly continue being Catholics considering the fact that much of Catholic doctrine goes DIRECTLY AGAINST the teachings of the Bible. Calling the Pope or a priest FATHER? Have you never even read the Bible? Clearly they are not to be called that. There are many examples like this. It is one thing if just average every day people within the church do these things mistakenly,.....it is quite another when Church leadership itself is teaching false doctrine.

BINGO!

The only reason you have the Gospels is because the authority of the Catholic church defined them in the first place. The gospels were not handed to humans on a silver platter by God himself, and there were dozens of gospels written, only four of which Church fathers deemed canonical and authoritative.

So in that sense, you already submitted to the ecclesiastical authority of the Catholic church.

I find it amusing when a brainless atheists presume to lecture anyone on religion or morality on a thread that is nothing more than race hustling nonsense. Not only do you lack in intelligence, but self-awareness. ;)
