I have studied saints and miracles. I feel sad when I encounter someone like this, because I think their religion does not have history or the strenght of being part of the mystical body of Christ. Becausre their focus is always exclusively on the first century, they do not see what majesty the Holy Spirit has accomplished through his church. They are suceptible to da Vinci code type challenges because they do not see the living God renewing his work in every century including ours.
Im sorry for you who can only be a staint by declairation of your sect.
I have been a declaired a Priest, a Prince, and an Ambasodor by God my Father, and Jesus My Brother.
Jesus made me DECLOS. Righteous, beyound my comprehension.
Jesus made me powerful in His blood with His Authority in heavenly places.
I am so glad that there are some Christians in the Catholic Church. I encourage them to step forward boldly and take spiritual authority over the evil spirits in their midst and bind them as Jesus taught.
To deal with the rest of the spirit of your post.
The RCC does not recognize the strong and powerful works of Christians that have been out side Catholosism for 2000 years.
History does not make a Christian. Jesus does.
