The Catholic Pope Francis and Bishops as well as Priest have Apostolic Succession from Jesus Christ Himself beginning on Pentecost Sunday the Protestant Churches don’t have that same TRUE succession today.

If there ever was an apostolic line (and there wasn't) it got lost when your popes started passing the position on to relatives, when others sold the pope position to the highest bidder and lost when they killed each other for the position...You really think God had something to do with those events or honor those events???

So how could an intelligent, somewhat educated human being believe in the farce called apostolic succession, unless it is the powerfull influence of demons???

2Co 11:14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
2Co 11:15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.

So, King David and King Solomon had no authority, either, due to their sins? You sound like a Donatist.

I have an Evangelical Friend and she says she doesn’t need to be Baptized. All The Apostles and Jesus were Baptized entire Families from the Youngest to the oldest were Baptized. Somehow as an associated reform Presbyterian or a Non Denominational Calvary Church it’s not necessary..

The Catholic Church Has Apostolic Succession...it’s dogma as Promised By Christ is always Correct it has 20 centuries interpreting the Bible it Formulated during 3 centuries of Discussion. Christ Promised Peter..He would never lie.. to his Catholic Apostles.
