Feel free to judge it “far more likely” if you wish.
For myself, I’ll stick with Christ’s judgment of that false religion called Catholicism.
“Feel free to judge it far more likely if you wish.”
I’m only concerned with truth. Feelings would be a separate issue in any case.
“For myself, Ill stick with Christs judgment of that false religion called Catholicism.”
Christ’s judgment is that the Catholic Church is His Church. He founded her, protects her, and no amount of “feelings” on your part will change that. You oppose Christ when you attack His Church as false. And that is exactly what you’re doing.
Christ founded the Catholic Church on the Apostles because he knew he was going to ascend to the Father.
Sorry that you don’t believe your Bible.
Christ told the apostles to follow his example: “As the Father has sent me, even so I send you” (John 20:21). Just as the apostles were to carry Christs message to the whole world, so they were to carry his forgiveness: “Truly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven” (Matt. 18:18).
This power was understood as coming from God: “All this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself and gave us the ministry of reconciliation” (2 Cor. 5:18). Indeed, confirms Paul, “So we are ambassadors for Christ” (2 Cor. 5:20).
