Well I have asked you questions you have not answered. However, I have answered your question. I am a Christian. My pastor baptized me after I repented of my sins. You tell me, how would one even believe in Christ except he heard the gospel that came down to him or her through the Great Commission?

Tell me what you want to know.

However, I have answered your question.

No, you haven't. I asked if you recognized that Catholics teach that apostolic succession is not JUST from Peter. And if you recognize that Catholics accept the apostolic succession of other churches, like the Orthodox, that are not under the Bishop of Rome.

You can go back and look. Don't claim you've answered things when I have asked you in now 4 straight messages to answer.

I agree. Alleluia. God is good.

That doesn't

a) make your pastor part of the apostolic succession
b) make your pastor claim apostolic succession (ask him!)
c) invalidate your baptism, which has nothing to do with apostolic succession, which has to do with valid priests and bishops, not Baptism which I already said any Christian can perform.
