I believe that Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior and through him I will live forever in Salvation. I don't need a "religion" made up of fallible men to tell me what to believe. I have God's own words and teachings written in the Bible.

Let me ask you this. If I go to a Catholic church and hear the word of God/instructions for practicing my "religion" preached by an active/unrepentant homosexual priest, is his teaching valid or am I following the instructions of a sinner/satan follower?

Christians are not Donatists ( google it )

Jesus Christ gave His authority to teach and baptize to the Church as Matthew 28 shows.

let me ask you a question:

how can you know that the Books contained in your Bible are the Word of God? does it contain an inspired table of contents? if no, what is the basis for you in determining what is the Word of God and what is not?
why don’t you believe the gospel of peter or the Didache to be the Word of God?
( remember, you don’t need fallible men to tell you what to believe, right? )

If he's a Catholic priest, his teaching isn't valid...
