To: Hebrews 11:6

Of course I am. I am a Catholic. The Church was founded by Jesus Christ and later added the New Testament to the Scriptures after the Catholic Church had been around for ~100-300 years. I especially love the Gospel of John chapter six and it’s incredible illumination on the Eucharist. I believe in the entirety of Holy Scripture and not just verses that, through the tradition of men, have been erroneously interpreted without the protection of the Holy Spirit and take out of context. And I pray daily for those who have an incomplete understanding of Holy Scripture because they are missing out on the fullness of that understanding.

As a side note...did you know that the divisions within the Bible today known as chapters and verses was added by a Catholic monk in the 12th century? If it weren’t for that monk from the “abominable and apostate” Church it sure would be hard to quote chapter and verse to try to destroy that which Christ established.
