legitimate Churches

lol. You've got to hand it to Rome. They are not stupid. Lost and perhaps depraved, but not stupid. You get all the Protestants to agree on ecumenical principles, even going so far as to compel the Orthodox Presbyterian church to rewrite and tone-down their understanding of the Chapter XXV of the Westminster Confession of Faith, and then...look what happens next.

The man who was in charge of tightening the reins of whatever ecumenical push existed after V2, who was responsible for decades of vile, subversive protection given to sexually-deviant priests, the man who most Catholics thought had ZERO chance of being elected pope, and VOILA! Ratzinger, the ex-Hitler youth, is in control and making the rules.

So while the Protestants are following an ecumenical Christian path as open-hearted men of good faith, the RCC is going in the opposite direction, happily and publicly declaring Protestant churches not to be churches at all, but mere "assemblies." They are worse than "defective churches," the term Rome reserved for the Orthodox. They are non-churches, as we learned in FK's link...

POPE: OTHER DENOMINATIONS NOT TRUE CHURCHES

lol. Pitiful. And this from someone who once saluted Hitler and all he stood for. So let us consider the source and be a little quicker on our feet. Wolves take on all sorts of clothing.

April 2005 was nothing short of a miracle. Truly, the Holy Ghost leads the Church.

That is a vile slander, an evil lie. There is zero evidence that Joseph Ratzigner was ever pro-Nazi. He joined the Hitler Youth for the same reason other Germans his age did: it was required. In fact, Joseph's family were opposed to Nazism, in part because a mentally retarted cousin was murdered by the Nazis.

LOL You are the poster child of anti-ecumenism. What a fraud.
