Like Ignatius, Polycarp, Iranaeus, Justin, Theophilus, Athenagoras, Clement, Tertullian, Cyprian and up to the present Pope.
Do these men can produce the passages for their doctrines of Apostlic Successor?
These men cannot prove their authority by speaking in tongues, prophesying and working miracles as mention in 2 Cor. 12:12
"Only" the apostles and prophets were made in this manner and they also could speak in tongues, prophesy and work miracles but could not pass the power to others as mention in Acts 8:4-6, 14-19.
They are "not" the chosen ambassadors who were selected to deliver God's message or "the faith" to mankind as mention in Eph. 3:3-4; Jude 3.
I've found out that these men don'y read and study the bible. When the Apostles and Prophets approached their deaths they did not give successors to take their places.
Paul said concerning the gospel, "It has been preached to every creature under heaven..." Col. 1:23.
What do you think?
