I don’t dispute that the Catholic church believes there was no apostasy at about the time of the death of the apostles. That’s a belief of my religion. Given that, I was wondering how the Catholic church interprets 2 Thess. 2:1-3. Obviously, not the same as I do. Christians that don’t believe there ever was an original church would likely interpret it differently from both of us. I’m asking the question for understanding of the Catholic point of view.
The best response is to refer you to the Bible!! ;-) Specifically, the footnotes. 2 Thessalonians
