Do you believe that the Gospels (written by the Gospel writers) are infallible? If so, did the writers of the Gospels write infallibly because of their own personal infallibility, or did they write infallibly because of the infallibility provided them by God? (Or do you think God did NOT provide those writers with infallibility when writing those Gospels?)
You have to be able to grasp that Jesus Christ founded His Church, just like He solemnly promised, and He has NOT abandoned His Church, and He said that the gates of hell would NOT prevail against her, and that the Holy Spirit would always guide her. Take Jesus at His word.
Neither. They are infallible because the words written were given to the writers by the Holy Spirit. It’s not any mans infallibility. It’s only the RCC that perpetuates that myth. Christ was the only infallible man.
>>Take Jesus at His word.<<
We do. It’s just that we know that the “church” Jesus started is not the Roman Catholic Church. The RCC is a totally corrupt combination of Paganism and Christianity which has been condemned by God and is called the whore of Babylon in Revelation.
I surely do.
I'm just not convinced that the promises He made concerning His church mean the Catholic church. Matter of fact, since Jesus did not come to establish a religious system and I see the history and fruit of Catholicism, I'm convinced that it's not.
All that is true...But since the words of God in the scriptures condemns your religious practices, we know for certain that yours is not the Church Jesus was referring to...
