Pentecost Sunday marks the beginning of Holy Mother Church's missionary efforts to convert men and nations to the true Faith...
But the Paraclete, the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things, and bring all things to your mind, whatsoever I shall have said to you. Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, do I give unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, nor let it be afraid...
The first bishops, headed by the Visible Head of the Church on earth, Saint Peter, became bold proclaimers of the Gospel of Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ immediately following the descent of the Third Person of the Blessed Trinity...
The Church's great zeal to seek with urgency the conversion of all non-Catholics to the true Church, outside of which there is no salvation and without which there can be no true social order, thus began on Pentecost Sunday and continued unabated until the ethos of the dark clouds of conciliarism, which emanated from spirits that are not so holy, began to hover over the the life of Catholics from the 1960s to the present day. There is no way to reconcile the refusal of the false "popes" of the counterfeit church of conciliarism to seek, no less their prohibition on ordinary Catholics to seek, the conversion of those steeped in the errors of Protestantism and Orthodoxy and Judaism and other false religions with the fidelity the Church exhibited from Pentecost Sunday to the false pontificate of Angelo Roncalli/ John XXIII.

Funny, catholic’s slaughtered millions of the faith because they refused to accept the false prophet of Popeism.
Horsefeathers. Millions? Why do you believe in such ridiculous nonsense?
One of the reasons that Catholicism is repugnant to many Christians is the theology cited in your post. When a religion equates itself with Christ, Christians will protest.
“When a religion equates itself with Christ, Christians will protest.”

Jesus said (paraphrased) that the works I do you shall do and greater.
What are YOU talking about? Elaborate.
extra Ecclesiam nulla salus
hmmm. that reminds me. I have to read a book published in 1899 titled “Why Men Don’t Go To Church” by Cortland Myers of Brooklyn, NY. Baptist pastor. Could explain the moral downfall of the United States. I’ll let y’all know. Come to think of it, if it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom, is it hard for a rich and powerful nation to keep its morality, too?
Outside of which there is no salvation... really?
The Word of God would disagree with this false theology. The Lord's church is not the giver or mediator of salvation.
Acts 16:30-31 Sirs, what must I do to be saved? So they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household.
Acts 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
Ephesians 2:8-9 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.
Romans 10:9-10 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
Second Corinthians 5:21 For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.
“...Outside of which there is no salvation... really?”
Really.
Q: Where did all those biblical passages that you quoted come from?
A: The Church
(End of discussion.)
Just as our nation's government no longer follows/adheres to the Constitution, the Roman Catholic Church and other denominations, no longer adhere to scripture. When church tradition is contrary to scripture, that tradition should be rejected.
Christ and not any church - is preeminent in my life.
End of discussion.
“...When church tradition is contrary to scripture, that tradition should be rejected...”
You are Peter and upon that rock I will build my Church.
The Church is apparently important to Jesus.
And the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
Therefore where you see a Judas contradicting scripture or the Church, you should reject him. Judas lost his membership in the Church even though an apostle!
In spite that there are “apostates” very active in our midst doesn’t cause the Christian to reject the Church out of hand, for does not Jesus build His Church?
Thus a person must search very carefully and diligently to locate the true Catholic Church. The “Pope Francis” church is a false religion, whereas the traditional Mass Catholic Church, which is but a remnant today, holds to true religion most faithfully.
Indeed. From the article, "... those steeped in the errors of Protestantism and Orthodoxy and Judaism and other false religions ..."
I agree with the statement but the caucus designation must not be abused.
Provided they’re willing to accept evolution. Otherwise the Catholic Church has no use for them.
You have conflated ‘The Body of Believers’ (the Ekklesia) with the Catholiciism Org (rhymes with Borg). You fail
