....”In putting himself in the place of head of the church, the pope has set himself in the place of Christ..... But Jesus Christ alone is the head of the true church (Eph 1:22-23).”....
Well they’ll never dennouce the Pope...ever. Everything else trickles down for there to the Priesthood and then the Dead Saint worship...
Catholicism will cease to be that without the Pope and Priesthood...and mary worship. Of course they will never let looses of that.....thus the reformation would even have to take place today as well. I do not see catholicism changing the pillars it stands on...which is the Pope and the Priesthood....with Mary the c0-redeemer.
So what did Jesus do before he ascended into heaven?
He left the Church in care of St. Peter and the other apostles, the first Bishops.
