Indeed.. The NT church of Jesus Christ.. That church was not rome.. No pope, no priesthood, no "mass" no "holy water", no prayers to the dead, no idols ,no confessionals,no rosaries, no "queen of heaven
That church looked more like my church than Rome ...
You keep showing your splendid ignorance that even Protestant theologians would be embarrassed including Luther himself who hailed the Catholic Church for preserving and assembling the sacred script as they had assembled.
Now, we all know Bible Christians are shallow and are ignorant of Church history. But here’s something you ought know before further embracing your self.
In the year 110 A.D., not even fifteen years after the book of Revelation was written, while on his way to execution St. Ignatius of Antioch wrote: “Where the bishop is present, there let the congregation gather, just as where Jesus Christ is, there is the Catholic Church”. The Church believes that when the bishops speak as teachers, Christ speaks; for he said to them: “He who hears you, hears me; and he who rejects you, rejects me” (Lk 10, 16).
