wherever Jesus Christ is, there is the Catholic Church." Ignatius of Antioch, Epistle to the Smyrneans, 8:2 (c. A.D. 110).

Protestants still need to humble themselves and enter the True Church. That's the problem.

[modomnoc1]

I think the problem between Catholics and Protestant's in my view is the idea of the Bible being interpreter of Bible rather than the Bible being a product of the Church and the need for the Church to guide Christian's. I think Matthew sees Peter as the rock on which the church was built on, however, John, Luke and Mark explicitly don't. However, absolute answers are not available, otherwise we would all agree. We need protestant in the Catholic church because of their love of the Bible.

"All you need is scripture and the inspiritation of the Holy Spirit?" There is 30,000 churches but only one Holy Spirit and one truth. That is why Jesus built his ONE Church on the 'rock' that is St Peter and He invested His authority in that Church and He gave His word that the gates of Hell would NEVER prevail against that Church. If you leave the See of Peter, then how can you say that you are still in that Church?

@GaraGambini should we prove that Protestantism is false by trotting out all the crimes of Protestants committed not only in Northern Ireland or in the American South (KKK)? I'm sure many of these men were viewed as heroes and faithful in good standing in their respective communities. That proves nothing more than that there are always hypocrites in any human institution, even the Church militant.

@jhalloran1 --"catholic" implies consistancy in doctrine, form of worship, and governing no matter what era or place you are in; non-catholic churches cannot make this claim of "consistancy".

[jhalloran1]

@ringnebula6767 The word catholic means "Universal" and doesn't always refer to the Roman Catholic Church. Just as in the Apostles Creed, the word catholic in that means universal.

PikSokolit, be a little kinder. Protestants are still brothers and sister in Christ....not the child of Lucifer. Scott Hahn here was a former Protestant and he loved God then too. He praises them for many things and was thankful for many of the things he learned back as a Protestant minister. In fact he came to know Christ through Protestantism and learned that the fullness of Christ's church is the Catholic Church. We have much in common...namely Christ himself, scripture, 2 sacraments...

[christianunity]

PikSokolit, this is not how we're going to convince our protestant brothers and sisters to come back to the fullness of truth! I hope you don't really believe and preach what you wrote.

Can I mirror this?
