and through the Catholic Church Jews....you have God's word, the Bible Scripture

you can't be that naive...the Jews, of course provided the old testament, which the Catholics included in the modern Bible....and they included all of it....but it is through thr writings of thearly church (catholics alone, thaat you even know who Jesus Christ is...do you seriously think that the Jewish community would have kept you up to date on a person who they do not recognize as more than a well known troublemaker????Scripture did not end with the Jews, it began, for us, with Jesus. The Catholic church recorded His life, copied the writings of His Apostles and disciples, preserved them, edited them, copied them, by hand, for 1600 years until the printing press came along and assisted them. I say that the ONLY reason that you have a modern Bible and know of our Savior, is thanks to the Catholic Church

The writers of the NT, with the possible exception of Luke, were Jews.

Try again.

Have you ever read the book of Acts about the establishment of the early church?

the early church was virtually all Jews, thousands of them, until God sent Paul to the Gentiles.

That is irrelevant to the point of the argument that since the RCC gave us the Bible then it is the infallible interpreter of it that is to be submitted to. Which logic invalidates the church, which did not begin as under the Catholic model, but in dissent from those who likewise presumed more of the themselves than what is written, but where reproved by the Lord using it. .

And more arguments by RC assertions continue to prove zero.

Time now to sleep
