The RCC is a paganized totalitarian impostor masquerading as the true church. Neither the New Testament nor the Patristic writings support their bogus claims. What we see in the Patristic writings is reflected in Evangelicalism, not the RCC.

To take only one issue, the premillennial beliefs of Justin, Ireneaue, Tertullian, Hippolytus, the belief of the Evangelicals matches theirs.

The RCC owes their Amillennialism to one man, Augustine. The RCC’s Amillennial interpretation of Rev. 20 was, truth be told, the main impetus for their totalitarian tyrannical rule over Europe during the middle ages. Per Revelation, the Popes believed that they were supposed to be ruling from thrones with an iron rod during this alleged millennial church age. Hence their killing and burning anybody that defied them.

Their claim as the true church is one of the biggest lies of history.

Wow !!! Do you write for Game of Thrones or some other fantasy show. If not, you are definitely qualified as a fantasy writer with the flight of fancy you just posted. Please forward your bibliography and documentation for your claims. It should make for interesting reading?

you go with that theory...over two thousand years of history and historians have proven you wrong...MOST Protestants in mainline denominations agree with the Catholic Church history and only a few deniers like yourself make up their own version of history....very sad....read a book or two.

I am curious how there have been Jews in Rome for over 2000 years? If there is anyone the RCC would want to punish, kill and burn, it would be the Jews. And it would be easiest in Rome, where the Church had actual temporal power for several centuries. However, the oppression did not start until after the Protestant Reformation started.

If you want examples of Protestant intolerance, feel free to examine Protestant reactions to Copernicus and Darwin.

Your claim that the Evangelical beliefs match those of Tertullian is wrong. In Scorpiace, Tertullian quotes Baruch 6:3.
