There is no evidence in the Bible of an unbroken apostolic succession of faith.
There is plenty of evidence that Paul and John trained disciples, but no evidence of their apostolic office. To the contrary, the Revelation says plainly that there were exactly 12 apostles.
It is the Nicolaitans that declare themselves to be apostles, but there is no fruit to affirm them. To the contrary, there are the constant sex scandals among them that show plainly that their apostleship is of Satan, not Christ.
“There is no evidence in the Bible of an unbroken apostolic succession of faith”
better read your Bible a little more closely -
2 Timothy 2:1-2
you then, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus, and what you have heard from me before many witnesses entrust to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.
those men who were entrusted taught other men, who taught other men, who taught other men and so on for 1,979 years.
these men also set the canon of Scripture you claim to follow and hand copied the Scriptures for 1,400 years before the printing press was invented.
