>The Bible calls Bishops, Bishops. I don’t see the word oversear. A Bishop is episkopos. The Catholic Church has a church-government and a Bishop is part of the definition. I don’t see why you are splitting hairs here. The word ‘Bishop’ is in the Bible and in extra-biblical writings. The Bible also calls for priests and deacons which the Catholic Church has.<
Episkopos literally translates oversear(look at your concordance).I have no problem with you translating that to Bishop but it is equally valid for some protestant churches to use the term elder.To do otherwise is the true definition of splitting hairs.
>Protestants broke away from the Catholic Church, not the other way around- I really don’t see why I have to justify my faith.<
You have not been asked to justify your faith.You have been asked to justify your statements which in some cases were not Catholic Doctine or were verses with no relevance to what you were trying to prove.
As to my denomination I am a follower Jesus Christ.
You purposefully limited your definition of Bishop to elder, Why do you purposefully avoid the word “bishop” if it means the same thing? Too Catholic for you?
Wikipedia also lists it as Bishop, not just “elder” or “overseer”... and you are still splitting hairs.
But since we are on the subject, you have neglected to tell me if your church has priets or deacons for that matter, the Bible says it should.
“As to my denomination I am a follower Jesus Christ.”
I expected you to say that. That’s pretty generic and what everyone says. What, you don’t belong to a denomination? I asked for a denomination.
Lutheran, Mormon, Methodist...?
