Also, it really amuses me when a protestant is discounting something that happened AD200-300 because it’s so far removed from the time of the apostles. It’s only another 1250 years or so until the protestant churches arrived.

Historicity is a very strong argument against Protestantism; for Protestantism to be valid one must admit that the church Jesus built failed, failed for most of history, and then the Protestant replica churches failed as well.

If one read the Bible one would learn that the first generation churches failed and Jesus told them to REPENT and go back to their first love. See the first few chapters of Revelation.

and there is the essence of the problem. The Word of God as standard of truth, or our own understanding..........
