There are Freepers who believe very, very, very strongly in the Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter Day Saints (Joseph Smith) and in Scientology (L. Ron Hubbard.) I'm quite confident that you would not consider their beliefs equal to your own. They would likely feel the same about yours.

With all due respect ,Dear Sister, the protestant belief that their scripture interpretations are always guided by the Holy Spirit is the cause of these groups you mention.

Catholic/ Orthodox rely on over 2000 years of the teaching authority of the Church lived through the lives of the Apostles martyrs and saints

Thank you for sharing your testimony, dear brother in Christ! As I have said before, it is apparent to me that you very, very, very, very strongly believe the Catholic Church.

May God bless you and guide you in your walk with Him, both in this life and in the one to come.

Please remember that Peter was not like John who was not like Paul who was not like James who was not like Thomas. And Christ chose them all.

Likewise you and I are not alike - and yet we are both members of the body of Christ.

God is not finished with any of us.

“Dear Sister, the protestant belief that their scripture interpretations are always guided by the Holy Spirit is the cause of these groups you mention.”

And who leads the individual Roman Catholic and Orthodox to believe that the teaching of their church is right?
