“Yet the conservative ones example such a bondage if mind that they cannot allow any credibility to anything that shows Rome in a bad light!”
I have heard many throw around the number of a billion catholics. I question what that even means, when half rarely set foot in a church, most don’t seem to follow the teachings, etc.
Those who cannot look objectively at their Church are not loving God with ALL their mind. They rely on Sola Ecclesia as the standard, which isn’t taught in Holy Writ.
Still God calls all Christians to witness to those who may be in darkness. Your witness hear is patient and thorough. It is up to God to open eyes and hearts. It is up to us to be faithful witnesses and love others.
Let's just close them ALL down!
Christ died and rose again for YOU!
Take advantage of His gift of Salvation!!
Sola Ecclesia via the mighty magisterium is indeed not what is taught in Scripture, and in fact under the RC model the 1st c. souls were to follow those who sat in the seat of Moses!
It is up to us to be faithful witnesses and love others.
True. 2Tim. 2:25,26
