Does The Roman Catholic Church Really Care About The Bible?

because they are not of themselves clear and intelligible even in matters of the highest importance
ReplyDeleteThe papacy "are not of themselves clear and intelligible even in matters of the highest importance"
I'll take the Bible any day over the RCC teachings. And, yes, the Bible DOES contain all the information necessary for salvation.
The gospel writers themselves would have disagreed with these statements made by Roman Catholic officials: "but these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name." (John 20:31)
ReplyDeleteCatholic authorities disparage Scripture, but then proceed to dress their true attitudes with malevolent sounding assertions. Rome is the guardian of the truth. It compiled the books of the Bible. Rome gives infallible interpretations in order to prevent heresy.
There are literally millions of people who are unable to sense the utter arrogance in all of this. They simply do not understand how cultic the Roman Catholic hierarchy is. It does not matter how old a religious system is. This behavior is authoritarian.
