***Just because you mean well doesn’t mean that you are thinking Christian thoughts. That’s why Jesus left us the Bible, and why the Catholic Church is so evil.***

Jesus didn’t leave us the Bible. The Church did. The Reformers try to have the Bible without the Church. That is not opinion.

Evil does violence to the Truth. It lies and deceives. The Reformation tries to turn cause and effect on their heads. Jesus caused the Church; the Church caused the Bible. To say that it is else is untrue and attacks the very Truth of Jesus’ ministry on Earth. That is evil.

John 1:1, “In the beginning was the Church, and the Church was with God, and the Church was God.”

See, here is our problem. We, the Reformed, believe that the Word of God is the Bible, while you believe that the Bible is just a bunch of stuff written by a bunch of men.
