The Roman Catholic Church is a man-made denomination—nothing more.

The Catholic Church wrote, preserved and canonized the Bible that was in existence in Luther's day. This is a matter of historic fact.

If this Church was an errant, man-made denomination, then how could Luther justify the Bible being the sole rule of faith?

“The Catholic Church wrote, preserved and canonized the Bible that was in existence in Luther’s day. This is a matter of historic fact.”

You know, that’s a strange set of facts you have there. And if you truly believe that the Roman Catholic Church *wrote* the Bible, you’ve got problems. BIG problems.

2 Timothy 3:16-18:
“16 All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, 17 that the man of God may be competent, equipped for every good work.”

‘breathed out by God....’ — get it?

The Roman Catholic Church *wrote* nothing. Manuscripts, written by those men filled with the Holy Spirit, may have been *copied* — but, that’s it.

So much for your historical facts.
