You cannot prove that the preaching of the Gospel of Jesus Christ was done ONLY through the auspices of the RCC.

You may and do CLAIM this, but CANNOT prove that there were not others Christians, some of whom fled for their lives from the Catholic hierarchy, who brought the Good News about the Lord Jesus Christ to different parts of the world in spite of the RCC efforts to quash the Gospel knowledge to the common people.

I never claimed anything of the sort. There are many who are not of the Apostolic succession... but no one who proclaims the name of Jesus Christ is our enemy. Unfortunately, that courtesy is not normally returned.

John said to Him, “Teacher, we saw someone casting out demons in Your name, and we tried to prevent him because he was not following us.” But Jesus said, “Do not hinder him, for there is no one who will perform a miracle in My name, and be able soon afterward to speak evil of Me. “For he who is not against us is for us." Mark 9:38-40

...but no one who proclaims the name of Jesus Christ is our enemy.

Good point. DOES the RCC proclaim the Name of Jesus Christ indeed?

No. The RCC proclaims itself as co-equal and even superior to Jesus Christ and adds ancient customs and odd practices to what even the Jewish religious leaders practiced apart from God had said.

The Church I belong to is the Church founded by Jesus of Nazareth (and no one else) on the Father's revelation to Peter and all believers, the saints, that Jesus is the Christ and Son of the Living God, and that we saints were to wait on the Holy Spirit Who would confirm everything to us. He did.

That Church is not now the RCC. I find, and through faith only in Jesus, as do other Christians, historical evidence that it NEVER WAS.
