Answer 2

If you wish to find the Church founded by Jesus Christ, you need to find the one that has the Four Chief Marks of His Church. The True Church must be One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic.

The Church Is One (Rom. 12:5, 1 Cor. 10:17, 12:13, CCC 813–822) Jesus established only one Church, not a collection of differing churches (Lutheran, Baptist, Anglican, and so on). The Bible says the Church is the bride of Christ (Eph. 5:23–32). Jesus can have but one spouse, and his spouse is the Catholic Church.

His Church also teaches just one set of doctrines, which must be the same as those taught by the apostles (Jude 3). This is the unity of belief to which Scripture calls us (Phil. 1:27, 2:2).

Although some Catholics dissent from officially-taught doctrines, the Church’s official teachers—the pope and the bishops united with him—have never changed any doctrine. Over the centuries, as doctrines are examined more fully, the Church comes to understand them more deeply (John 16:12–13), but it never understands them to mean the opposite of what they once meant.

The Church Is Holy (Eph. 5:25–27, Rev. 19:7–8, CCC 823–829) By his grace Jesus makes the Church holy, just as he is holy. This doesn’t mean that each member is always holy. Jesus said there would be both good and bad members in the Church (John 6:70), and not all the members would go to heaven (Matt. 7:21–23).

But the Church itself is holy because it is the source of holiness and is the guardian of the special means of grace Jesus established, the sacraments (cf. Eph. 5:26).

The Church Is Catholic (Matt. 28:19–20, Rev. 5:9–10, CCC 830–856) Jesus’ Church is called catholic ("universal" in Greek) because it is his gift to all people. He told his apostles to go throughout the world and make disciples of "all nations" (Matt. 28:19–20).

For 2,000 years the Catholic Church has carried out this mission, preaching the good news that Christ died for all men and that he wants all of us to be members of his universal family (Gal. 3:28).

Nowadays the Catholic Church is found in every country of the world and is still sending out missionaries to "make disciples of all nations" (Matt. 28:19).

The Church Jesus established was known by its most common title, "the Catholic Church," at least as early as the year 107, when Ignatius of Antioch used that title to describe the one Church Jesus founded. The title apparently was old in Ignatius’s time, which means it probably went all the way back to the time of the apostles.

The Church Is Apostolic (Eph. 2:19–20, CCC 857–865) The Church Jesus founded is apostolic because he appointed the apostles to be the first leaders of the Church, and their successors were to be its future leaders. The apostles were the first bishops, and, since the first century, there has been an unbroken line of Catholic bishops faithfully handing on what the apostles taught the first Christians in Scripture and oral Tradition (2 Tim. 2:2).

These beliefs include the bodily Resurrection of Jesus, the Real Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist, the sacrificial nature of the Mass, the forgiveness of sins through a priest, baptismal regeneration, the existence of purgatory, Mary’s special role, and much more —even the doctrine of apostolic succession itself.

Early Christian writings prove the first Christians were thoroughly Catholic in belief and practice and looked to the successors of the apostles as their leaders. What these first Christians believed is still believed by the Catholic Church. No other Church can make that claim.

Answer 3

Jesus would go to the synagogues on the Sabbath and the Sabbath is on the seventh day. Exodus 20:8; Exodus 16:23-30; Exodus 31:13-14; Genesis 2:3 and Isaiah 56:4

Answer 4

Catholic Scripture and Tradition came long before Fundamentalist Scripture and their lack of Tradition. We moved right from the Jewish text to the Christian text quite seamlessly. I wish the fundamentalists on here would make their own study of Scripture and Tradition not led by a bigoted pastor but rather through the guidance of the Holy Spirit. We would find way more common ground between us if they could do this research on their because based on most of their leaders the Catholic Church is the whore of babylon when on the contrary She leads us toward Heaven and Jesus Christ. BTW Scripture and Sacred Tradition go hand in hand, one can not be justly interpretted without the other. Peace in Christ, Kate

Answer 5

The closest he came was in Matthew 16 where He blessed Peter and told Him that upon Peter would He base His church. He promised that the gates of hell would NEVER prevail against it and that Peter (and by extension, his successors until Jesus came again) would have the power of loosing and binding, of deciding what's what in the church and further promised that Almighty God Himself would accede to those decisions. "Whatsoever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven and whatsoever ye loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven." Talk about shouldering responsibility! Since the Catholic Church traces its origins to that moment and since all other Christian denominations have to go through the Catholic Church to get back there, well.....

Of course there are some denominations that claim a new revelation. The fact that Jesus said there weren't gonna BE any more after Him is simply ignored. Inevitably those denominations are therefore forced to downplay the importance of Jesus to salvation. They have come up with some doozies for alternatives.

Unhappily for too many, there is no way to point to a single statement made by Jesus that unequivocably says worship this way or else! God DID make us in His image. Presumably that means we have at least a modicum of His intelligence. Apparently He expected us to use it. Pity so many don't.

Answer 6

Jesus said, " I am the way, the truth, the life. No man comes to the Father, but by me " ( John 14:6 ). Jesus did not sacrifice His life in the name of " religion ." Religion damns. Jesus alone saves. Jesus proclaimed " Righteousness. " And righteousness can only be attained by knowing and living by His Word.

Answer 7

Isa 8:20 To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.

True Protestants are committed to the Scripture alone. They believe that all 66 books of the Bible 'by his singular care and providence' have been 'kept pure in all ages' and are wholly inspired, infallible and authoritative . "the grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God stands forever"

(Isaiah 40:8, 2 Tim 3:16, 17)

Answer 8

Granny Annie did a great job answering this question. Simon Peter, the Apostle of Jesus was the rock on which Jesus Christ built his church. "Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-Jona: because flesh and blood hath not revealed it to thee, but my Father who is in heaven. And I say to thee: That thou art Peter [Kipha, a rock], and upon this rock [Kipha] I will build my CHURCH [ekklesian], and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. And I will give to thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven. And whatsoever thou shalt bind upon earth, it shall be bound also in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth, it shall be loosed also in heaven". Peter was given the keys to heaven by Jesus in scripture, why would the keys be given to him if he were not the true church leader? (Matthew 16:13-20) St. Peter became the first Pope of the Roman Catholic Church, the rock on which Christ proclaimed He would build His church.

Protestant Christians are called protestants because of their "protest" against the Catholic church and decision to seperate themselves from it by forming their own churches. The divisions are tremendous within the Protestant faith. For example, Bible Baptists, Free-Will Baptists, United Methodists, Presbyterian USA, etc. This is due to the fact that whenever there is a question on faith matters, very often the resolution is to "split" up and create a new church, with a new authority. There is no supreme authority on church matters.

As far as scripture goes, the argument seems to be among most Protestants and Catholics (both of which are Christians) is whether our faith is based solely on scripture "sola scriptura" or on additional means instituted by Christ. The Roman Catholic Church has a Pope and a Magisterium (teaching authority) to lead and guide the faithful regarding scripture, tradition and the teachings of the early Church Fathers. We believe that the Pope, through the grace of God and the assistance of the Holy Spirit is infalliable regarding all matters of faith. This is why the Roman Catholic Church has survived for over 2000 years, inspite of controversies, schisms, heresies and the Protestant Revolt. ALL Christian religions trace their roots back to the Roman Catholic Church, headed by St. Peter as declared by Jesus Christ. Protestants and Catholics are all brothers and sisters in the Christian faith. I challenge all Christians to research the early church through scripture and the writings of the early Church Fathers.

No particular religion was mentioned...but "JC" establish a church before He leave, for the people/community to have unity in worships & adoration. Then these community/fellowships can work and help each other in furthering the cause of love and help with each other.
It means, God is a universal belief, should be accepted by everyone`s heart. Thus faith is a private feelings, belief and trust...and if everyone forms a group of same fruitful, good & modest intentions...then your group will be accepted by God as His good church and He will showers more blessings and become legitimate for Him to consider your group/community/religion.
But if an individual person is better than members of a group/religion... then you would be contacted directly by God just to tell you...you are doing fine, you can contact me directly and you are definitely saved...just go on with what you are doing now until the ends of time.....
Of course, nobody in this world can judge any group/community/religion whether it is accepted by God...so, we`ll just leave it to Him to do that in His own time (probably in His 2nd coming)...but perhaps we`ll have an inkling of the judgement by peeking into the groups fruitful endeavor in daily lives (if they are blessed with The Holy Spirit gifts as defined in the The Holy Book)...perhaps it gives as an idea that they are doing fine.
Although everyone differ in their idealism but should adhere to God`s idealism of love, peace, in harmony & good relationships with one another. If you differ from these idealism...then you are acting out against His will (if you form any community & religion with your wrongful acts, belief & idealism, then your group is not for God but for your own pride)...
...from here, (if you are a God`s child in the wrong group in the wrong time) you would be warn by God`s angel for you to be cautious in joining this particular group, or just be prepared or "be on guard all your life" for any surprises.
So, what I want to say is...if you want to ally with God for salvation sake...just do everything within the context of God`s will & idealism and He will protect you under His umbrella... and you`ll never be afraid wherever you are, in what kind of group/religion you are in, because God is always with you in your heart, mind, body & spirit. No need of comparison, who`s true group/ religion or not, fights for rights, etc.
Good luck...and ...Be blessed!

Answer 10

No. The Roman Catholic Church contends that its origin is the death, resurrection, and ascension of Jesus Christ in approximately 30 A.D. The Catholic Church proclaims itself to be the Church that Jesus Christ died for, the Church that was established and built by the Apostles. Is that the true origin of the Catholic Church? On the contrary. Even a cursory reading of the New Testament will reveal that the Catholic Church does not have its origin in the teachings of Jesus, or His apostles. In the New Testament, there is no mention of the papacy, worship / adoration of Mary (or the immaculate conception of Mary, the perpetual virginity of Mary, the assumption of Mary, or Mary as co-redemptrix and mediatrix), petitioning saints in Heaven for their prayers, apostolic succession, the ordinances of the church functioning as sacraments, infant baptism, confession of sin to a priest, purgatory, indulgences, or the equal authority of church tradition and Scripture.
