See that ye all follow the bishop, even as Jesus Christ does the Father, and the presbytery as ye would the apostles; and reverence the deacons, as being the institution of God. Let no man do anything connected with the Church without the bishop. Let that be deemed a proper Eucharist, which is [administered] either by the bishop, or by one to whom he has entrusted it. Wherever the bishop shall appear, there let the multitude [of the people] also be; even as, wherever Jesus Christ is, there is the Catholic Church.Just by reading the content, you know it's a farce...Like the rest of your traditions, this resembles nothing of what is to be found in the scriptures...
You guys would do far, far better to stick with the inspired words of the writers of the scriptures...
