isn’t it amazing that only Catholics ( Latin and Greek ) believe Jesus when He said He would be with us always, even to the end of the world. only Catholics believe the Holy Spirit was able to protect the Church for 2,000 years, such that the gates of hell couldn’t prevail against it.
all these other so called “christians” believe the Holy Spirit couldn’t protect the Church, that it went apostate soon after the Apostle John died, and that it was “restored” in the 16th century.
they don’t understand the Church is the Body of Christ and that Body having suffered and died ONCE, can’t die again.
so it is impossible for the Body of Christ to have died after John did.
that Body was here in all 2,000 years.

Not really. Acts and the Epistles tell us about all the churches of men that arise on a continuous basis out of the ooze of human imagination.

You're quoting scripture and you don't even know what it means...

Oh no, thats not true at all. The true body of Christ, His church, survived even though the Catholics burned them at the stake and committed all sorts of atrocities against them.

Isn’t it amazing that Catholics who claim they believe that God gave the Holy Spirit to the church don’t act like the individual can be led of, enlightened by, and sealed with until the day of redemption, that same Holy Spirit?

Thank you Martin Luther - who heard and obeyed.
they dont understand the Church is the Body of Christ and that Body having suffered and died ONCE, cant die again....so it is impossible for the Body of Christ to have died after John did.
BELIEVE and OBEY God! "Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge HIM, and He will make your paths straight."
the Church is the Body of Christ
Christians know His Church is the Body of Christ and we are members of His Body. What catholics are unable to see is the catholic church is not God's Church. God's Church is where HIS WORD is The FINAL Authority! JESUS, The WORD, reigns in HIS own church.
So acknowledge Him who is THE WORD in ALL things. In ALL your ways acknowledge HIM/The WORD, and He will make your paths straight.
