#12 | Church Father: The Pope is the Head of the Church (Papal Snapshot, St. Jerome)
CULTIVATING SAINTS, SAGES, AND STATESMEN THROUGH THE GREAT TRADITION
In this Papal Snapshot, we dive into St. Jerome's incredibly Catholic view of the papacy and the authority of the Pope as outlined in his Letter 15 to St. Pope Damasus. St. Jerome was a Church Father who lived from c. 342-420, and is widely considered one of the greatest Scripture scholars of the ancient Church.

    No any other church except Catholic Church can fit into the Church of saints that Jesus established under the stewardship of Peter therefore many strong and highly educated protestants who studied and knew the truth are leaving the satanic cult of sola scriptura a man made tradition invented by a devil possessed man to join with the fullness of faith that Jesus desires

    Failure to be obedient to the one appointed by God, fails to do God's will. Disobedience is one of the traits of satan. Follow God, not yourself or other reformers. Biblically speaking, God build His church and appoint a shepherd to watchover His flock. Why other people refuse to accept that. They refuse to be under of someone that God appointed to. Instead they take it by themselves.

    Well, seeing as the papacy has been fully embracing *terrorism and murder* as well as sodomy; no Catholic can ever be loyal to the papacy nor to God Himself, and they're overthrown due to their embrace of objective evil even once! Since the embracing of evil by the office of the vicar of Christ has happened even once; everybody knows that theology is a set of lies from the mouth of God; and thus God Himself is evil only for even being a spirit!

    The Pope is the Pope, as long as he is the True Pope. Case in point, Wikipedia lists Pope Alexander III as a true Pope, and his rival to the Chair of Peter, Pope Victor IV as an anti-Pope. In reality Pope Victor IV was actually the True Pope. Proof of this came from Almighty God in the form of miracles wrought at the gravesite of Pope Victor IV, True Pope. Amen. In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. Time will tell as to the idiosyncrasies of francis, the anti-Pope.

      Excerpts from Our Lord's 10/28/2006 message (in God speaks will you listen): "God is not the author of confusion. I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life, and no man comes to the Father but by Me. No one enters Heaven without embracing All My Truth. There will be no schisms or fighting in Heaven. Everyone in Heaven knows the Truth. Do you realize one of the worst events in the history of the world was the protestant reformation? For it caused division in My Church. The author of confusion, Satan, spread doubts in My priests, like Martin Luther, who let Satan water his doubts, weeds grew, and confusion and schism came in My Church. This was not My will. How much truth do you want? 100%, 50% or 25%? Anything less than 100% of My Truth will cause confusion. There is only One Source of Truth, the Holy Trinity, and anything else comes from Satan."

      No ! 'Outside of the Church, No Salvation' is a Catholic Dogma (Catechism #846). Our Lord, before Ascension, sent the Apostles to all nations and told them to teach people to OBSERVE ALL HE COMMANDED for salvation of souls until the end of the world (Matt 28:19-20), saying "Whoever believes you and be baptized will be saved, and whoever does not believe will be condemned (Mark 16:16)." Therefore, whoever rejects the teachings of the Church will be condemned, unless they repent and come to the Church.

    Hey Protestants/Evangelicals/Fundamentalists/Independents! Love scripture? Here ya' go! PETER as Shepherd and first Pope: Scriptural evidence and the structure of the primitive Church make it absolutely undeniable that Christ chose Peter and that Peter was first among the twelve. Depending on the translation, Peter is mentioned 195 times. The closest is John (the beloved disciple) at just 29 times. The rest even less. Consider: Jesus entered Peter’s house. (Matthew 8:14) Jesus changed Simon's name to Peter. (John 1:42) Jesus gave Peter the keys to the gates of Heaven. (Matthew 16:19) Jesus declared Peter to the the rock. (Matthew 16:18) Jesus made Peter shepherd. (John 21:15-17) Jesus told Peter to strengthen his brothers (Luke 22:32) Jesus paid the Temple tax only for Himself and Peter. (Matthew 17:24-27) Jesus preached from Peter's boat. (Luke 5:3) Jesus told Peter to "Follow me" (John 21:19) Jesus called only Peter to walk on the water. (Matthew 14:29) Jesus predicted Peter's three-fold denial. (Matthew 26:34) Jesus predicted Peter's repentance and three-fold affirmation. (Luke 22:32) Jesus prophesied only Peter's manner of death. (John 21:18-19) Jesus taught Peter forgiveness 70 times 7 times. (Matthew 18:21-22) Jesus spoke only to Peter at Gethsemane. (Mark 14:37) Peter is always listed first of the Apostles. (Matthew 10:2, Luke 6:14, Acts 1:13) Peter was first to confess Jesus as Messiah. (Matthew 16:18) Peter alone spoke at the Transfiguration. (Matthew 17:4, Mark 9:5, Luke 9:33) Peter pointed out the withered fig tree. (Mark 11:21) Peter entered the tomb first - John deferring to him. (Luke 24:12, John 20:3-4)) Jesus, after resurrecting, appeared FIRST to Peter, then to the twelve. (1 Corinthians 15:5) Peter was the only apostle to confess that he was a sinner. (Luke 5:8) Peter decided the manner of replacing Judas. (Acts 1:15-26) Peter spoke for the eleven at the Pentecost. (Acts 2:14-36) Peter was released from prison by the Angel. (Acts 12:6-11) Peter spoke for the eleven before the Council. (Acts 4:8-12) Peter held sin bound to Ananias and Sapphira. (Acts 5:1-10) Peter's shadow healed. (Acts 5:15) Peter declared the sin of Simony. (Acts 8:18-23) Peter revealed the salvation of Gentiles to the Church at Jerusalem. (Acts 11:1-18) The Angel told Cornelius to call for Peter. (Acts 10:3-8) The Holy Spirit fell upon the Gentiles as Peter preached to them. (Acts 10:44-45) At the empty tomb, the Angel said, "Go tell His disciples, and Peter." (Mark 16:7) Mary Magdalene ran to tell Peter and the beloved disciple. (John 20:2) The vision of all foods being clean was given only to Peter. (Acts 10:9-16) Peter's words silence the first council in Jerusalem. (Acts 15:7-12) Paul went to Peter to affirm that his Gospel was not in vain. (Galatians 1:18) Peter was given the revelation of the end of the world. (2 Peter 3:10-11) Peter taught that Paul’s words were easily twisted. (2 Peter 3:16) Peter taught that baptism now saves you (1 Peter 3:21) And many other references. One may deny that Peter was primary, but it takes an amazing ignorance or denial of scripture and history to do so. BELIEVE the bible.

    I don't understand how people make statements without having studied the scriptures fully. The Church, which is NOT the Roman Catholic system, is clearly taught to be the Body of Christ here on earth. We are joined to the Head of the Body by the Holy Spirit indwelling the believing sinner who is saved by grace, and cleansed by the precious blood of Christ. The Head of the Body is the Lord Jesus Christ Himself. The Pope was born a sinner just like the rest of us, and if he is not born again of the Spirit of God, he is not even a member of the body of Christ, never mind being the Head of the body. If by some strange circumstance the Pope was actually a Christian, he might be the leading figure in an assembly in Rome, but he most definitely will NEVER be the Head of the Body of Christ. Christ has His own head attached to His torso and it is in Heaven interceding for us as our great High Priest.

      What? I guess Matthew 18:15-20, verse 17 where Jesus says “If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church; and if he refuses to listen even to the church, let him be to you as a Gentile and a tax collector.” And which Church is it? It has to be a PHYSICAL building that holds the living God, the Pillar and bulwarks of the truth. 1 Timothy 3:15. So, again, which is it?

    The way I see it, it seems that the E. orthodox only changed their belief about the papacy, & revised history after the schism. It seems that every Christian sect (or individual) that wishes to remain apart from the Catholic Church & apart from communion with the pope, necessarily makes up arguments against everything they lack due to the separation, in order to rationalize & justify their continued separation.

      Excerpts from Our Lord's 10/28/2006 message (in God speaks will you listen): "God is not the author of confusion. I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life, and no man comes to the Father but by Me. No one enters Heaven without embracing All My Truth. There will be no schisms or fighting in Heaven. Everyone in Heaven knows the Truth. Do you realize one of the worst events in the history of the world was the protestant reformation? For it caused division in My Church. The author of confusion, Satan, spread doubts in My priests, like Martin Luther, who let Satan water his doubts, weeds grew, and confusion and schism came in My Church. This was not My will. How much truth do you want? 100%, 50% or 25%? Anything less than 100% of My Truth will cause confusion. There is only One Source of Truth, the Holy Trinity, and anything else comes from Satan."

    Exactly as the church describes. Not JESUS CHRIST! You seriously think Jesus would teach about such a serious subject in a parable & he would only refer to it once...? When you read before and after the scripture you actually get context. Try that...

      Jesus refers to purgatory in more than one parable, but you seem to think that Scripture contains all that Jesus said and did. Scripture says it doesn't. In His Wisdom, He left a Church so that all that He taught would be clearly understood.

    Great Presentation. Purgatory makes perfect sense and is a huge gift of Gods mercy. Think about it. No one enters heaven unless they are saints otherwise they would contaminate heaven. Purgatory is a spiritual washing machine that turns us into saints unless we become saints before we die in which case we go directly to heaven. Without purgatory most souls would go to hell. Take advantage of Divine Mercy Sunday every year.

    As a Lutheran LCMS, I have no doubt about the faith being passed down from the Apostles but what Catholics fail to a knowledge, how they swayed away from the faith as early as 3-400 AD, which resulted in the splits of the Catholic Church. The Eastern Orthodox, Assyrian etc all the way down to Luther, who only wanted to reform the fallen apostate position of the Church. Todays Catholic Church in no way represents what the Apostles actually taught and believed, not to mention all the sinful practices of the church, the pedophilia and paying of indulgences as well as a “works” based faith. Paul tells us that in later times some would no longer adhere to sound doctrine. That includes Catholics

    The Apocrypha DOES repeat some of the actual Old Testament, so, in that regard, it has SOME truths in it. It ALSO has falsehoods. And once it contains a falsehood, it's no longer the Word of God. It is written AFTER the Old Testament is completed...every prophecy recorded, etc. in the period of Silence. It's not canon and to pretend otherwise is false teaching...and ADDING to God's Word in this manner comes with a hefty penalty.

    Joshua TCharles, I have seen how the mercy and grace of God has allowed you to reveal what I myself also experienced in my time with Calvinism. We were misled by the British Bible Societies, and this was a mistake. Because, like you, I realized that the books we commonly call apocryphal were not so for the early Christians, especially the Book of Wisdom, which is clearly a canonical book far from being apocryphal. Just as God revealed to Simon that Jesus was His Son, He has now revealed this important and transcendental truth to you. Here I want to help you with some verses cited by the first Christians of the first 5 centuries, at least 20 citations from them, taken from the deuterocanonicals. This shows us that Martin Luther, without being part of any Church council, declared the seven deuterocanonical books to be apocryphal. The same Bishop Saint Augustine of Hippo, in the last council, selected 73 books, and for him the deuterocanonicals were canonical, just as you have realized that Wisdom is not apocryphal. I give glory to God, and perhaps this will help you see that only Luther believed this absurdity that they were apocryphal. Here are the citations from the first centuries regarding the deuterocanonicals, always believed by the early Church. I congratulate you for sharing your enlightenment with the other brothers. Example: Bring the quotes from at least 20 Church Fathers of the first centuries Name of the Apostolic Father, year of the letter or book, title of the letter or book, and the quote referencing the deuterocanonicals. Paragraph with Examples of Early Church Father Citations: Joshua TCharles, your journey of discovery regarding the deuterocanonical books is truly inspiring and resonates with the experiences of many who have examined the historical evidence. The notion of these books being "apocryphal" is a relatively late development, as we see clear evidence of their use and acceptance by the early Church. Martin Luther’s rejection of these texts stands in stark contrast to the consensus of the first centuries, where these books were not seen as extra-biblical, but as part of the scriptural tradition. As you've eloquently recognized the canonical nature of Wisdom, let us delve into some examples from the early Church Fathers supporting this point of view and the other deuterocanonical books: Clement of Rome, circa 96 AD, Letter to the Corinthians, Clement quotes from Wisdom 12:12: "Who can say to you, What have you done?" and presents it as authoritative. Polycarp of Smyrna, circa 110 AD, Letter to the Philippians, This letter alludes to Tobit 4:10, "Almsgiving delivers from death," reflecting a familiar understanding of these texts. Didache, circa 100-150 AD, Didache, The Didache is a manual of Christian life which shows familiarity with Sirach, quoting phrases and using concepts found in the book. There are a number of passages throughout the Didache that have parallels with Sirach. Irenaeus of Lyons, circa 180 AD, Against Heresies, Irenaeus uses Baruch 4:36-37 as an authority to refute the Gnostics idea of the physical world. Tertullian,circa 200 AD, On Modesty, explicitly quotes Wisdom to show its authority Clement of Alexandria, circa 200 AD, The Instructor, Clement often quotes from Baruch and Wisdom as scripture, showing a high regard for the books. He also mentions Tobit and Judith. Origen of Alexandria, circa 230 AD, Commentary on Matthew, Origen cites Wisdom 10:4 showing its acceptance as divinely inspired text when mentioning Noah. Cyprian of Carthage, circa 250 AD, Treatise 1, Cyprian quotes Tobit 12:8, "Prayer is good with fasting, and alms," using it as an authoritative piece of God's teaching. Hippolytus of Rome, circa 225 AD, Commentary on Daniel, Hippolytus quotes from Susanna as part of the Old Testament Scripture in his commentary. Athanasius of Alexandria, circa 367 AD, 39th Festal Letter acknowledges the usefulness of several deuterocanonical books, for edification, but places them in a category different than the protocanonical writings. Hilary of Poitiers, circa 360 AD, Commentary on the Psalms, Hilary quotes and accepts Baruch as part of the prophetic books. Cyril of Jerusalem, circa 350 AD, Catechetical Lectures, Cyril quotes from Wisdom and other deuterocanonical texts. Ambrose of Milan, circa 380 AD, On Repentance, Ambrose uses Tobit and Wisdom for instruction, seeing them as part of the inspired scriptures. Basil of Caesarea, circa 370 AD, Letters, Basil cites the book of Baruch. Gregory of Nyssa, circa 380 AD, On the Making of Man, Gregory quotes Wisdom as an authoritative text. John Chrysostom, circa 400 AD, Homilies on Hebrews, John references to the deuterocanonical book of Tobit. Epiphanius of Salamis, circa 375 AD, Panarion, Epiphanius mentions the book of Judith, in his discussion of the biblical canon. Augustine of Hippo, circa 400 AD, On Christian Doctrine, Augustine affirms the canonicity of the deuterocanonical books, including Wisdom, and Tobit, as part of the Old Testament canon in the council of Carthage which he attended. Jerome, circa 400 AD, Against Rufinus, Jerome shows familiarity with Tobit, Judith, Baruch and Wisdom as books included in the Old Testament canon. Council of Hippo circa 393 AD, This Council, where St. Augustine was involved, officially listed the Deuterocanonical books as part of the Old Testament canon for the church. These examples showcase that the deuterocanonical books were not peripheral or late additions, but integral parts of the scriptural tradition for centuries, long before the Reformation. These citations of early church fathers highlight the wide acceptance of these texts from the first centuries of Christianity. Your recognition of the canonical value of these books is a return to the authentic, historical understanding of the Christian scriptures.
