**no earthly voice/personality/pastor speaks for the Christian community. **
Hmmm.
You don’t believe the Gospels when Christ consecrated the Apostles and then the 72, telling them to go forth and spread the good news, baptizing them in the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit?? Were not these apostles and 72 men that wnet out two by two human beings? Just like Christ?
Were not they the voice for the Early Church, the Catholic Church?
May I direct you back to your Bible, please.
Or do you Protestants only read St. Paul and not the Gospels?
Guess I am puzzled.
**72 men that wnet out two by two **
72 men that went out two by two
I never noticed it was seventy two men.
Numbers do not happen by accident in the bible.
Two thousand times seventy two equals one hundred forty four thousand, the number of the elect .
Refering to the guy that wrote the article — he is not the voice for the Christian community.
Yes the apostles were humans- are you trying to be sarcastic?
And which early Catholic church are you refering to ?
Which council period ??
And as for your saracasm regarding what gospel Christians study, we (myself and my peers in bible group etc) study the
whole bible . Not as you claim only St. Paul.
In fact none of my Catholic friends and family study the bible. They ignore scripture and live their lives according to the world’s mold, however they do spend time doing “works”.
They do attend church and allege the righteousness
of the faith however.
My CHristian peers make negative comments about the Catholic faith and I defend the Catholics. But reading some of these articles and some of the posts I can see it is not a 2 way street.
When will the Catholic church clean itself up ? Why spend time critiquing the greater CHristian community when
the Catholic church is such a shambles ?
