Unfortunately, Protestants are against us. That was what the Reformation was about, no?

No, as besides the defintion of "Protestant" being so broad as to be essential meaningless, Rome, like the sectarian pre-Pentecostal apostles, was against any doing ministry in the name of the Lord that was not sanctioned by them.

For RCs presume that an assuredly (if conditionally) infallible magisterium is essential for determination and assurance of Truth (including writings and men being of God).

And that being the historical instruments and stewards of Divine revelation (oral and written) means that such is that assuredly infallible magisterium. Thus any who knowingly dissent from the latter must be in rebellion to God.

Which logic leads to an interesting and damnable conclusion.

Protestantism = protest against Catholic Church

Regardless of what individual protestants believe, Protestantism was the result of the Reformation which came about in protest of the Catholic Church.

Yes, Protestants in their many forms are against us. So, in this case, the Bible verse posted above doesn’t apply because Protestants are against us, not with us.

There is nothing more for us to say because it is that black and white.

They do believe this Francis guy is "vicar of Christ" after all.
