Much of what you posted is correct, the problem is you guys seem to think that it was meant for people 1500 years later not from day one after the resurrection, only for people of the last 500 years, to be honest you guys cannot even agree to what the bible is actually saying amongst yourselves little alone with the CC which you have broken away from, all trying to justify there own personal take of the bible as God give truth
I keep asking this question, do you honestly think you are the only one who can read the bible
And do you honestly think the righteousness you guys have bestowed on yourselves could only happen to you and not CC, orthodox and Eastern churches
Christ used more then just scripture
This I will tell you this, get off the notion and bandwagon that the CC dosent use scripture, you will also need to understand that the bible came out of the Church, not the other way around
I will also tell you if you understood CC teaching, you will see that they are one with the bible, sorry other way around the bible is one with the CC
Its you guys that have misquoted scripture to make it seems to be anti CC to justify yourselves and your protesting position you guys have taken, this is why you are known as a protestant
You guys absolutely have not got a monopoly on the bible
The bible was never used to start a new religion
The bible was never meant for personal information and interpretation, it's for the whole church
The OT was used for their service in worship
The NT were written for the same purpose
The bible is the church liturgy book for it's service
Martin Luther hijack it to suit his agenda
Don't believe me, go ask ex-protestant scholars, historians, who done and know bible history, ask them why when they had a mind like yourself ended converting to the CC
There is a thing going on right now educated protastants are becoming catholic, they are seeing the deception imposed by the reformation
You are not educated or religious informed enough to see what has been bestowed on you, which could have very severe consequences on your salvation
All you are doing is repeating and oblivious anti-catholicism mindset, coming down from 500 years ago
If your happy with that, so be it, we will all have to answer to our decision
