There are Christians like me, who do believe that God still speaks and may say new things. They may be small things that are personal and have to do with someone’s life path. The point is, God will never, never contradict Holy Scripture. If what is being told you as God’s Word contradicts Holy Scripture then run from it as fast as you can.
In my opinion there is so much in the Catholic Church that contradicts Holy Scripture that it is frightening. I try very hard not to get myself entangled with Catholic spirituality. I get in profound trouble when I decide to cross this line in my life.
That being said, I believe that many Catholics are well intentioned. Catholics may even be saved, if they truly believe in Jesus Christ as their LORD and Saviour. Unfortunately many Catholics miss Christ through the fog of the many false doctrines in the Catholic Church. This is very, very sad. It’s like they cannot see the tree (Jesus Christ) through the forest of Catholic false doctrines. To help them is like trying to help someone out of the deepest cult, maybe harder. They are so sure that, because of it’s age, the Catholic Church is the true Church. This is what they rely on instead of The Holy Spirit, God’s Holy Word, the invisible true Church of Jesus Christ, His body, of which He is the head, and of course, most importantly, on Jesus Christ Himself, personally. God help them.
So were the apostles and disciples Christians?
They were chosen by Christ and followed him.
Here hear! Here is wisdom.
