The Catholic Church is the New Testament Church. BTW, it looks like you just called your own theology manmade.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`

Wrong and wrong. The Catholic Church didn’t show up until the 3rd Century. And I’ve already made my claim that my Christianity is based on God’s perfect Word. And not the word of some pope. Yet you have the audacity to claim the Bible is a manmade theology?

Oh really. I have the audacity to say that you place yourself and your conscience above scripture and that you create your own manmade theology. Aren't you you your OWN Pope? It seems like you have declared ex cathedra about your interpretation of the Bible. St. Ignatius of Antioch Letter to the Smyrneans c. 105 AD Chapter 8. Let nothing be done without the bishop See that you all follow the bishop, even as Jesus Christ does the Father, and the presbytery as you 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. It is not lawful without the bishop either to baptize or to celebrate a love-feast; but whatsoever he shall approve of, that is also pleasing to God, so that everything that is done may be secure and valid. So much for your theory that the Catholic Church didn't start until the 3rd century. Yours well started in the 17th century if you are a Baptist or in the 20th if you are Nondenominational "Bible" Christian.
