.without the Catholic Church, you wouldn’t even know who Jesus was.....the Jewish religion probably wouldn’t have mentioned Him.


God is the one who made the Gospel possible for all to read and i think it is true that the Catholic Church had a lot to do with it but it would have been done with or with out them.

There are no doubt many believers in both the Catholic and protestant Churches and many in no Church.

But Rev 17 tells us pretty plainly that we can not depend on a religious institution.

And it is evident that if this scripture is speaking of the
Church then the protestant Churches are the daughters.

And in Rev 18 it is still talking about this woman and it says in verse 4

And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.

The Catholic Church has made it plain that they believe they represents the woman in rev 12 so how about the woman in 17?

And as i have made plain before I don,t know anything, that is just the way it looks to me, and i am not trying to save any ones soul, i have all i can do wondering about my own.

of course God could have done it another way....but He didn't, He chose the Catholic Church to preserve, protect, Copy (by hand) the scriptures. As I said, without the Catholic church you wouldn't even know who Jesus was....God acted through the Catholic church....is that so repugnant to you that you can't grasp reality?????
