[daniel1212]

You mean the same Catholic document that Catholics compiled, codified, and safeguarded for centuries so protestants and everyone else could know the Word of God. Or is there another Bible I’m not familiar with? Just as God worked through men to write individual books of inspired Scripture, He worked through the authority of the Catholic Church’s Bishops to determine for us what books belong in the Bible. All Christians must admit that their confidence that the Bible is Sacred Scripture – the inerrant and divinely inspired Word of God – stems from the authority of the Catholic Church. God made Scripture holy…but we know this because He revealed it to us through the Catholic Church.

So once again you trot out this polemical assertion, but you never have affirmed the logic that gives this assertion any weight. That being, is your argument that being the instruments and stewards of Holy Spirit mean that such are the infallible authorities on what it means, and thus wilful dissent from such is rebellion against God, and invalidates any claim to authority.

Clearly affirm or deny for once, esp. as your present your church as being the choice of geniuses.

The Bible didn’t fall out of the sky. Do yourself a favor and go to any library in the world and read some Christianity 100. If you have to put down the Catholic Church and her’s teachings 24/7 will you please quit reading the Bible, which is a very Catholic document. Not the first protestant had the first thing to do with the Bible. That’s so hard for some on here to come to grips with. Not hard for anyone that does not a closed mind though. And that is the crux of the problem.
