LOL, anyone who knows anything about Church History knows that doctrines aren’t fully defined until they are attacked in some way.
by this way of thinking, Jesus did not become divine until the Council of Nicea.......hmmm, come to think of it, that is just what the Jehovah Witnesses teach!
for everyone who it is claimed thought the Eucharist to be figurative, i posted quotes showing they held no such beliefs.
when Ignatius rights in late first century, early second century that the Eucharist is the flesh of Jesus Christ, that’s transubstantiation in everything but the term.
i love when Catholic Church Fathers are quoted somehow against the Catholic Faith, when these same posters deny baptismal regeneration taught by these same Fathers they are quoting. isn’t it ironic?
What’s so ironic? I believe some of what Calvin said but abhor some of what he said and did such as with Michael Servetus. I find some of the things the CC teaches to be scriptural but much of it is not. Why do you think we refer back to scripture “to see if these things are true”? It’s your church that has the “unanimous consent” idea. I pointed out that not all of the church fathers believed the same things as the CC does today. At the least the “unanimous consent” deal is a joke.
