You continue to avoid the obvious conclusion of your position:
You go to great lengths to pretend that Christ left us with no earthly authority to preserve his Gospel and his Church on earth. This passage at the moment it is delivered makes clear that Peter and his successors are protected from error by the Holy Spirit.
The only alternative is for you to project that same gift to each of us.
individually.
We see the fruits of that concept in the proliferation of Protestant denominations, in the aftermath of Luther’s interference.

This doesn’t mean Peter can’t make math errors or have self doubt.
This is with regard to judgement on matters of faith and morals.
Now, go back and respond to the question presented above.

This is your answer to Acts 10? After Jesus Christ gave Peter and the 11 the Great Commission to preach the gospel to all the nations? And as far along as Acts 10, Peter STILL said it was unlawful for a Jew to keep company or come unto on of another nation, you would dismiss this as "self doubt" or "math errors" (whatever THAT is supposed to mean). On matters of faith and morals...And you contend that I am avoiding the obvious conclusion of my position?

It's called reading God's Word as it is STATED. NOT reading something into it that isn't THERE. And projecting a predetermined meaning in order to make it fit the RCC teachings and doctrines.

I gave you NOTHING that was not presented CLEARLY in God's Word. You gave me NOTHING that WAS presented in God's Word. Acts 10 would give you a clear understanding of what was happening at that time. But you seem more eager to dismiss it in favor of Rome's interpretation. Which, by the way, can in NO WAY be reconciled with Acts 10. And Peter. So sweep it under the rug, forget it exists and take up another cause to "keep the lunies on the path", as Pink Floyd sang.

The "Shocking Decline Of Christianity in America" is because the gospel of your salvation has been replaced with works, and wafers and deceitfull doctrines of devils. But it FEELS so good to THINK God is impressed with man's endeavors to work their way to Him. It's called "The way of Cain" in Jude 11. From Genesis to today, it's still what man decides God wants from him. Man working to present his offering to God, instead of the offering God demands.

You want to know what the future of this nation is? Read the Bible. God tells you in His Word.

God’s grace on the USA is about true freedom

True Freedom is only found when we are slaves to Christ.

We now have the freedom in the Spirit to resist sin and its condemnation.

Freedom is found only in a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ by His grace not our works.

This is a protestant truth and not catholic obviously.

Vatican, LDS, Mormons, and Islam are all cults.

Most protestant denominations today, like my LCMS, are also cults.

The old wineskin of religious denominations has been replaced with the new wineskin of personal intimate individual relationship.

These truths are why God established the USA.

They are is also why the USA must be gone for the NWO to take place

It is also why the rapture is important because the mystery of the age of grace in the true church established through the land of Grace the USA, is the only thing stopping the NWO.

IMHO Our Lord Jesus Christ will protect His bride.

Tidal waves, WW3, disclosure, etc happen after the rapture.

It is going to be so intense that no planning to survive it will be possible especially in this hemisphere.
