Nobody was a true Christian until Luther, 1,500 years later? Or was it Calvin? Or was it John Knox?
Or are the only true Christians the one listening to Pastor Bob at the Evangelical church converted from the out-of-business Pizza Hut building?
Hilarious.
We have the same faith as the early Christians. Turns out it was all documented... and look no pope! No nuns. No purgatory. No indulgences. And no conquest by the sword.
I'm glad you admit that you think that everybody got it wrong for 1,500 years. All of us Catholics, Orthodox, Chaldeans, and Armenian Christians, among others. Nobody was saved until Luther came along, or Brother Bob at your storefront church.
You only had to remove 7 books from the Bible to get you there.
These are just made up strawman arguments. I didn't say everybody got it wrong. I'm showing you there was a tradition of what we believe now from the very beginning, because we're using original source material.
And for 1,500 years there were people reading scripture and preaching the gospel. Sometimes they were murdered by your beloved Roman Church. That is biblical proof positive they were true Christians and the murderers weren't.
Strawman? No mon ami. If you don't call Catholics and Orthodox, etc. "real Christians" then you're saying that nobody got it correct until Luther. The "real Christians" were who, exactly? And where, exactly? They only pop up 1,500 years later.
Beloved? I don't love it, as it has too many problems that need fixing. But it is what it is, the only church founded by Christ when he walked the Earth. Pastor Bob's converted Pizza Hut can't say that.
And you ought to look into how many the Prots have killed, say, starting with Cromwell and those evil, dastardly Catholics in Ireland. Oh wait.....
Anyway, the Roman Empire was converted by the blood of martyrs, and the barbarians that replaced them by preaching to them. I might give you the sacking of Constantinople by crusaders as a problem though.
No answer for those missing 7 books?
