"Such doctrines and duties as were taught by the inspired apostles"
The blind and power grubbing rcc can't keep tacking on 'traditions' at your whim and still call it 'holy'! The 'traditions' you force on others were NEVER taught by the apostles. Merely added later by men alone.
My daughter was told at her first communion that, "Now that you have Jesus in you, you will be more willing to clean your room and obey your parents". Ha! What a load and demonstration of a COMPLETE lack of understanding by the rcc clergy as to the meaning of re-birth. AND, it wasn't just Luther that had questions about the deuterocanonical texts. MANY early Christians questioned their use as scripture....but it appears that by 393 the rcc was already trying to establish their political order and empire over Christianity....and the seed of corruption was sown. BTW...the deuterocanonical is not accepted by Jews either. You rcc are all by yourselves on this one.
Yup, and we're the only ones who got it right. Here are the facts---the Septaguint (the Greek version of the Jewish Scriptures) was the Bible that Christ and the Apostles used. Both Jesus and the Apostles taught from the "deuterocanonical books". AFTER the rise of Christianity, (and partly driven by that rise), the Jews decided to actually define their Canon. The criteria of selection were specifically chosen to minimize those texts that supported Christianity. So Luther chose a NON-CHRISTIAN canon over the original Christian one.
