Google the name Tertulian and read his biography. He wrote up his beliefs and presented them to the Bishop of Rome. The Bishop of Rome rejected it as heresy. Tertullian left the church and joined an off-shoot. At the Council of Nice when Emperor Constantine convened a group to formulate the Doctrine to be taught, the writings of the Pagan Lawyer Tertulian were adopted.

His teachings were radically different than had been taught by others such as the Bishop of Rome.

Since his doctrines were adopted, and not the doctrines of the Bible, Tertulian became the most influential writer.

Those who adopted his doctrines are actually his followers.

But, you already knew all that.

Google the name ELSIE and prove what you claimed is true.

Otherwise you'll be considered a liar.

Sorry, but these ARE the Doctrines of the Bible.

It is your DOCTRINES & covenants that are non-Biblical.
