I’ve got two thousand years of history compared to your five hundred. How’s that for “unsupported opinion”?
“Ive got two thousand years of history compared to your five hundred. Hows that for unsupported opinion?”
1. God has no grandchildren. Only children. Your underlying premise is foolish and doesn’t support your truth claim.
2. Heresy isn’t based on time.
3. Every Christian is part of the body, bride and assembly of Christ - conceived in the heart of the Father before the foundations of eternity, purchased with His blood in time and joint heirs with Him.
4. Much of the history you claim covered periods of heresy, corruption and sin.
Your unsupported claim falls far short of what He is all about. Why so earthly?
It is all about Him. It is all about His glory. His sacrifice. His exaltation.
The Catholic Church, once it decided in the 3rd Century what books would be in the Bible, has the same Bible today as then. It wasn’t until Luther came along that any books of the Bible that had been considered inspired word of God were taken out of the Bible.
So it is not a case of Catholics added books to the Bible. This statement is impossible. Catholics were here before any Protestant denomination. Protestants removed books from the Bible, books that for 1500 years had been considered the inspired word of God. Unless you subscribe to a hidden church theory, it is impossible to not acknowledge these facts. And ask yourself, why would God allow His church to be hidden when He tells us not to “Hide our light under a bushel”? That makes no sense either.
The Hebrews have over 4,000 years of history. Does that make them right?
