117
Q

Response about the Church existing first

A

A4: We also note that the Church existed long before the New Testament did. There was a Christian Church and Christian leadership, and Christian rituals well before there was a set New Testament. It took…

- about 20 years for the first New Testament book to be written
- about 70 years for the last New Testament book to be written
- over 300 years for the Church to decide which books would be considered part of our Sacred Scripture

When some Christians say that “Faith should be based solely on the Bible,” it makes one wonder about the Christians who lived BEFORE the Bible was finalized. What did they base their faith on? The Church and its teachings! When Christ’s Church completed its process of deciding upon its sacred writings, that was ADDED to its teachings; it was NOT REPLACING them!

118
Q

Response about the Church deciding what books would be added to Scripture

A

When some Christians assert that they follow the Bible instead of “flawed men,” we should point out the role that the “flawed men” of the Church determined what our sacred texts were! Through study, research, debate, and prayer, and guided by the Holy Spirit, the Church identified certain books as inspired. If a Christian is going to disregard the teachings, rituals, and leadership structure that the Church has given the world because “flawed men” were behind those decisions, one should also disregard the Bible that the Church gave the world. Again, this lacks consistency.

119
Q

Response about our beliefs, our leadership structure, our rituals, and our sacred books all coming from the Church

A

All these are the work of the Church! By saying “We only go by the Bible!”, what some Christians are essentially saying is “Listen to the Church when they tell us what our sacred texts are, but disregard everything else from the Church!” To us, this lacks consistency. Our beliefs, sacred texts, leadership structure, and sacred rituals ALL came from Christ’s church.

120
Q

A

Kept free from error via the protection of the Holy Spirit

121
Q

A

122
Q

Ecumenical councils (general infallibility) but also to the Pope acting as head of universal Church (Papal infallibility) when speaking ex cathedra, from the chair
