Is the Roman Catholic Church written in the bible? Or does it have any proofs in the bible?

Answer 1

The Roman Catholic Church is not written anywhere in the bible. A lot of their beliefs are tradition. They believe alot of what baptist believe such as how Jesus came as a baby through a virgin-born woman and died on a cross for us, and things like that- the basic stuff. They think you have to work your way to heaven. However, the bible says in Ephesions 2: 8,9 that by "Grace are you saved, through faith, that not of yourselves, it is the GIFT of God, NOT of works lest anyman should boast". See, salvation is a gift, not something you have to work for. If the Roman Catholic Church was bible-based, then why do they keep changing their beliefs around? I mean, catholic's today believe differently then Catholic's from 50 years ago. Half of Catholic's don't own a bible either. I"m not against Catholic's- let no man misunderstand me. God loves them just as much as the next person, but their eyes can be opened to how they can have a personal relationship with Jesus, not just to "know about Him", but you can actually KNOW Him!!! What a wonderful gift!!! Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved.

Answer 2

The only Christian church in existence for the first 1500 years was the church known as Catholic (universal) the very same church which was born on Pentecost.

The term was first applied to the Christian church in the early 1st century by St. Ignatius. This is fully documented.

All the apostles, and all the disciples were Catholic, and all the books of the Bible were selected by the Catholic church.

Even Martin Luther admitted that without the traditions of the Catholic church, there would be no bible.

Protestant claims about Constantine forcing changes in the church are trumped up false traditions, with absolutely no evidence to support them.

History clearly shows that the Roman empire was converted and then destroyed. This was no small feat.

The Catholic church remains, just as it will until the end of time.

In spite of what you may have thought, or have been told by others, the Catholic faith is the original and most complete faith on the face of the earth. We have the Bible. We have God the Father. We have Jesus Christ. We have the Holy Spirit. We have valid sacraments that truly dispense grace. We have the Mass and Holy Communion. We have the sacred traditions of the apostles. We have Mary, the mother of Jesus, and the communion of all the saints. We have an earthly leader, the pope, who wields the God given authority to settle arguments between various members of the worlwide church. We have our own country, the Vatican. We have a complete body of both dedicated religious scholarship and divine revelation that goes back 2,000 years, all the way back to Jesus Christ himself, and then spans the old testament, all the way back to creation. We also have the great commission, and the irrevocable promises of Christ.

Mat 28:18 And Jesus coming, spoke to them, saying: All power is given to me in heaven and in earth. Mat 28:19 Going therefore, teach ye all nations: baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost. Mat 28:20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you. And behold I am with you all days, even to the consummation of the world.

None of this happened by chance.

Answer 3

The Roman Catholic Church is never specifically mentioned in the bible, compared to what they would like to believe. The christian church is mentioned many times, and even states where we were first called "Christians". As far as proofs, the Catholic Church believes many of the same things as protestants and Christian believers. What they can prove beyond the shadow of a doubt is what they believe from the Bible. The rest comes from "Tradition" or spoken word by the Pope which is taken as infallible, but it's still spoken by man and is not infallible. Even so, some of the things that Catholics claim to come from the bible are merely based on their perception and interpretation of that particular passage. It will change with each person, but the truth is still there. It's just how you see it that changes. Any other questions, probably want to go visit your local parish or priest.

Answer 4

There are no proofs in the bible! It is simply a book put together from a selection of scrolls. The majority of which are under lock and key at the Vatican.

There is no scientific proof of anything. Some minor floods can be shown but they were localised.

Jesus was supposed to have been a big problem to the Romans but no record exists of him in their records. There were other Jews at the same time calling themselves the Messiah and all funnily enough are well documented.

Christianity in all it's forms is a belief not a book of facts.

Answer 5

The Roman Catholic Church wasn't officially established until after the books in the New Testament were written. When Constantine made Christianity the official religion, he sent the bishops to Nicea to determine which books which had already been written should be included in the New Testament. That's also why we have the Apocrypha--those are books that were considered, but not included.

Answer 6

No. And no. The Church was divided many millenia after the Bible was compiled (1054 AD). Writers of the Gospels never heard of anything called Roman Catholic Church.

Answer 7

Like many denominations, many of the practices of the Catholic Church are man made and unbiblical. Priests CANNOT forgive you of sins. There is NO difference in sin, veniel or mortal. It is idoltry to worship Mary and the Saints. They gamble in their church.

Answer 8

All I know is that the Bible speaks about the apostles being at Rome.
