The Holy Ghost gave such a doctrine, thence from it to prove something else. Tell me that I missed something here.

respectfully... you stated "And that is why the churches loyal to the Real Christ have existed apart from catholicity since the beginning." -- yet, this is historically inaccurate, the Real Christ as seen in orthodoxy has remained throughout

Which are these groups you state that have "always" existed apart from orthodoxy?

You cut my sentence in Post #1053 short, not quoting all of it.

Again with respect, let me say that you did not answer my question as to:

whether or not I did discern from your responses the intent that was on your mind;

to wit, that you have implicitly assumed that the Holy Spirit authored the doctrine of catholicity (the doctrine of an institution external of the local church and superior to it, which would govern the local assembly and the constituents therein).

Is this not what you had assumed (without Scripturally proving it), and were attempting to use this unproven concept in furthering your line of argument?
