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?
The early churches are documented in the Bible, and there was no Pope, no icons, no Mary worship, etc. So that was not the "Catholic Church" that manifested later. It's as simple as that.
The idea that Roman Catholicism represented all churches at any point in time is ludicrous. The Bible proves otherwise and that's all the evidence needed. So why reject such a plain and simple truth?
Yes, Paul reported to Peter, both of whom, with the other apostles like John, kept having to correct the various churches with letters, epistles, even sending St. Timothy out. They kept, like you, sliding in heresy. Yours is at least material heresy. I don't think you've even been taught anything but the babble you spout.
Who compiled the Bible? The Catholic Church in 382 at a council. Where was the Council? Rome.
Why did Luther drop 7 books from that Bible? It's hard to say "sola scriptura" with a straight face when nowhere does it say in the bible "sola scriptura" and Paul specifically says to keep up tradition.
Sweet Jesus, you're so ignorant of your own history.
(I forgive your slander of the Blessed Virgin Mary, btw.)
I'm praying that you get saved. Best of luck.
I will work out my salvation with fear and trembling. I will find out after I die.
God bless you, I mean that sincerely, my brother in Christ.
