Because that’s not the case. A translation of a translation is error waiting to happen to begin with.

Adding tradition to Scripture and elevating it to the level of Scripture is a disaster waiting to happen.

And the history of the Catholic church confirms that.

Jesus is the head of his church, not Peter.

What kind of man would the pope be to lock someone out of heaven simply because that person didn’t want to belong to his organization?

The Catholic Church is not the only true church. The true church is the body of Christ composed of all true believers of all time, regardless of denominational affiliation.

Salvation is through Christ, not any church or any leader of a church.

Have you ignored everything I've posted?

Apparently.

The Catholic Church is not the only true church. The true church is the body of Christ composed of all true believers of all time, regardless of denominational affiliation.

Scripture most explicitly tells us that Jesus Created the Church and the Holy Spirit commissioned it at Pentecost. You wish to tell Jesus about your post at your Judgement? Go ahead with any man made church. I will go with the Scriptural understanding of the Church.
