But seriously...The false Catholic religion came out of the Gentile church...There certainly were no Catholics during Jesus' ministry on Earth...The church wasn't available to Gentiles during Jesus' ministry...You guys seem to forget, or never knew that there is a bible out there that tells us and you guys all of this stuff...
And again, no...Catholic so called scholars had nothing to do with what would be put into God's book...God decided that...
Catholics decided what would be put into the Catholic bible...
Sola scipture??? God's bible tells us that everything we need to know to aquire salvation is written in God's bible...So is that sola scripture??? Of course it is...

1577 ekklēsía(from 1537 /ek, "out from and to" and 2564 /kaléō, "to call") properly, people called out from the world and to God, the outcome being the Church (the mystical body of Christ) i.e. the universal (total) body of believers whom God calls out from the world and into His eternal kingdom.
[The English word "church" comes from the Greek word kyriakos, "belonging to the Lord" (kyrios). 1577 /ekklēsía ("church") is the root of the terms "ecclesiology" and "ecclesiastical."]
Word Origin: from ek and kaleó
Definition: an assembly, a (religious) congregation
“There certainly were no Catholics during Jesus’ ministry on Earth”
Before the protestant reformation the only Christians were Catholic, either Roman Catholic or Eastern Orthodox. There were no Jimmy Swaggart pentacostals around back them. Think until your head explodes but that is fact. Jesus started one Church, not some 35,000 with no authority or structure whatsover. The difference in the Catholic Church and all other faiths is Jesus started the Catholic Church, all others were started by mortal men. Only one Church is divinely inspired and that is the Catholic Church. And I would have never started this thread if I had known it would going to turn into just another Catholic bashing. Ever wondered why protestants do majority of the bashing against Catholics? I don’t think I have to expain it. Think about it.
