I noticed you cut off my comments.
Luther was not a Pope. He was not an apostle. He was as much a “saint” as the pope and bishops opposing him. Which is not saying much.
If you use your line of argument you nuke your own royal line of popes. You also nuke papal infallibility.
The “impeaching the witness” routine is a modern leftist tactic. I know you are conservative on a conservative site so try not to use the enemy’s tactics.
There were Catholic popes, Catholic councils too, well before and AFTER Luther which oppressed, tortured and murdered Jews. Luther was raised and educated Catholic. Is it surprising he retained much of the antisemitism of Catholic history? No not surprising.
So if you want to use leftist witness impeachment, say no more. Your Popes throughout history, even to the 20th, impeach each Catholics walking the earth today. Go ahead ask any Jew today which Christians they can trust. They will most likely tell you they only trust Americans who are Christian. They will tell you they know Catholics and Protestants in Europe oppressed, tortured and murdered them in the past and in modern history as well. But the US is different to them. A nation founded on clear simple Biblical Christian principles.
So let’s step out of the bloody past and discuss the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I ask, where do you find the Gospel? Where is the Gospel clearly stated?
So are you in denial that martin Luther is the father of protestants all the sudden?
Sorry...History disagree’s with you.
LDS - Luther Derangement Syndrome.
The thought of him just pushes RC’s right over the edge.
