Apostolic succession is an unnecessary, and illogical fantasy. It is completely nicolaitan in its origin, being completely missing from the scriptures.
In thew OT there was a familial priestly succession, but Christ replaced the priesthood, and thereby abolished it, replacing it with the personal priesthood of each and every believer.
Apostolic succession is an unnecessary, and illogical fantasy.Really? And yet they appointed successors. Odd.
