This is the great consolation of Catholicism: we have an historical Church tracing itself back to Christ who in turn promises His guidance to the same. Our reason after finding the historical Church serves as a buttress to the the divine gift of Faith. In a nutshell we are blessed with the whole deposit of Scripture and have no doubts about it....Come home folks!

Does this include the “Jesus” sayings on the rolling paper?

Didn’t Jesus say “read ye such reminisciences as might be written about me, determine ye thy faith as thy chooseth in concordance with whichever interpretation thy chooseth and be self-righteous in this endeavor?”
Oh yeah. He didn’t.
I’m a hook-nose but If I were a Christian I would be Catholic.

Saint Thomas, thanks for the invitation “home,” but we Christians will stay with Christ.

We don’t worship or “venerate” Martin Luther, so many of us will listen to arguments that he might have left out some books that should be in the Bible.

We Christians assembled the Bible (there were no “Protestants” back then, remember?) and then much later there was a split.

Who left Christ? Not the Christians. Maybe for a time it was those who started to worship a human organization rather than Christ.
