I wrote : "You see, the Church had already interpreted Apostolic Succession of men from the Scriptures for 1500 years..."

_______________________________________ From what passages?

Passages found within the Pastorals, the Acts of the Apostles, and the Fathers of the Church writing in the first two centuries. Any evidence that you can give me that the Catholic Church is NOT the continuation of the Church established on Pentacost Sunday in Acts 2?

Regards

Maybe it's just a difference of semantics. When you say "Apostolic Succession" I think you are saying your Church is led by Apostles today. I'm questioning this because there are no Apostles living today.
