Nonsense. YOU made the claim that the early Church was more like the Protestantism than Catholicism, that makes it YOUR job to prove it.

Sorry it is Catholics that claim they are the original church..

I did not think you could prove it...The services according to scripture was preaching and breaking bread..no ritual sacrifice, no apostle leading them

It's not a claim, it's historical fact. The Orthodox left during the Great Schism in the early 11th century and the Protestant Reformation began in the early 16th century.

What you say conflicts with Scripture. Are you suggesting that Paul felt we needed to be worthy simply to eat?

And you are right, not all early masses had an Apostle officiating, just as most today do not have a bishop officiating.
