Lots of lawless men and errors these days. Thank the Lord He built a Church to guide us, and didn't leave us to our own personal fallible interpretations of scripture.

Then how'd the RCC miss the boat with corrupt papacies and stuff like the Inquisition?

Where's the justification of that kind of behavior for people who don't toe the doctrinal line?

Where in scripture does it say Christians no longer sin?

and stuff like the Inquisition?

I'd take my chances with an inquisition court any day over the self anointed inquisitors on the Religion Forum.

The Church is not just the Popes. we’ve had corrupt popes, priests, laity etc., but the Holy Spirit guides His Church as a whole. That’s why The Church has survived while heresies from the Arians to now the Mainstream protestant groupings have diead out. A quote said that most heresies run out of steam in 500 odd years. This is visible in the first generation Protestant groupings. The new groupings that date to just the 19th and 20th centuries will have a shorter life.
