    Jesus Christ established His One True Apostolic Church with His apostles in 33AD, before His Passion. They were called Christians until St Ignatius named Gods Church Katholokis (Universal) in 110AD. Jesus appointed Peter as His first Pope (leader) of His Church. We have the direct succession of Popes dating back to Peter. The list, The Annuario Pontificio is found on the official website for The Vatican, called The Holy See. Gods Catholic Church is the pillar and foundation of truth, 1 Tim 3:15, it’s founded on Peter and the Apostles(first Pope & Priests of Gods Church, with Jesus Christ as the preeminent Cornerstone. Eph 2:19-22

      4th century BC - through the Council of Nicaea, Jesus was made God (325) and the Holy Spirit was made God as well through another Council (381).
      The communion was being performed by eating bread and drinking wine by everyone. After a few centuries, drinking was ommitted.
      2 up to 3 popes were present at the same time creating schism in the Catholic Church.
      12th century BC - baptism was changed from immersion to pouring of water to the head.
      I can mentioned a lot more deviations made by rhe Catholic Church so HOW THEN CAN THE CATHOLIC CHURCH BE THE TRUE CHURCH?

    The first use of the title Pope, or Papas was by Gregory I in about 604 AD. Before that, there was no pope. Gregory I was the first Pope. The first list of the "Bishops of Rome" was compiled about 180AD by Irenaeus, the bishop of Lyon. He was the one who placed Peter at the top of the list, 110 years after Peter had died. And how did Peter become the Bishop of Rome, when he was a jew from Jerusalem? A little bit of actual study, causes the whole house of cards to come crumbling down.

    Yahusha was a Natsarene ... not a christian:
    Mat 2:23 and came and dwelt in a city called Natsareth - thus to fill what was spokena by the prophets, “He shall be called a Natsarene.”
    And so was His followers ....
    Act 24:5 “For having found this man a plague, who stirs up dissension among all the Yahuḏim throughout the world, and a ringleader of the sect of the Natsarenes,
    Christianity was founded by Emperor Constantine 1 in 321AD. And they changed His Sacred Name, and the christian theology speaks against the Torah of YHWH, which our Messiah Yahusha taught.

    God did not set any man to be a pope, the Catholic Church has never understood Matt.16 the New Testament was written in coin age Greek, when Jesus asked the disciples who they thought he was and Peter said the Messiah, Jesus said he was blessed because God had opened his eyes to that truth. When He said thou art Peter which translated is little rock as in pebble, and then Jesus said and on this rock which He used the Greek for large boulder, I will build My Church He was saying that the truth that He is the Messiah the Son of God is the rock or truth that the Church the body of believers, not just a particular denomination by the way, would be built on. How ridiculous that a whole denomination would think that God would build the Church universal on the shoulders of any fallible human man when Christ Jesus is always to be our focus and guide. I don’t say this to disrespect anyone just pointing out a truth, if you disagree have the courage to study it out yourself and see, God bless!

    I thought a biblical reference will be given where it is said those three mentioned were Pope but i was surprised hearing that it is traditional believe that you are using.
    It is very clear that Roman Catholic church came into existence when the Roman Emperor, Constantine, claimed in 312 AD that he saw Jesus on his way when he was going to conquer Rome and after he won the battle and became Emperor, he ordered that Christianity should be the official religion of the Roman Empire and that birthed the Roman Catholic church.
    In the new testament times, there was no denominations but the church are designated based on their location e.g. church in Jerusalem, Church in Antioch etc.

Cephas means rock or stone, usually a building stone. But this was said in front of Mt Hermon the largest mountain in the region.

      @@markh8740 Wow, your lack of knowledge is amazing. First off, the Bible is 73 books, not 66. The Bible was compiled in 382 at the Council of Rome under Pope Damasus. St Ignatius of Antioch attributed the term Catholic to the Church in AD 107. In 325 at the Council of Nicea, the Church anathamatized the Arians in the name of the Holy Catholic Church. The Nicean Creed uses the phrase: One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church. In 382 the only Christian Church that existed was the Catholic Church. In 382 Damasus charged St Jerome with translating the 73 books into Latin for the use of the Catholic Church. That translation is called the Latin Vulgate and exists to this day. The Bible was unadulterated until Luther came along 1200 years later. Even the original edition of the KJV of 1611 has 73 books.
      Where in Scripture does it say that Jesus spoke to Peter by Mount Herdon? Also, if you read the text, Jesus said that He was giving Peter the keys. Also, Paul admonishing Peter proves nothing. To this day bishops have the right to question the Pope. The process is called "dubia" in Latin.

    Peter was a fisherman, who had a boat (John 21:3).
    Peter was in Babylon, Egypt, and Mark was in Alexandria, Egypt, (1 Peter 5:13)
    Peter was writing from or near Jerusalem at the time he wrote 1 Peter 1:1, for the temple was in Jerusalem, not Rome. If Peter was in Rome at the time he wrote 1 Peter 1:1, then this would make him a part of the scattered. He was writing to Jewish Christians in those 5 churches, who were scattered from Jerusalem, who had to leave for their gathering.
    They would have left to greet Mark for their gathering (1 Peter 5:13) then continued by boat to Peter, who was 100 miles south. Do you see the water channels leading/funnels to Babylon, Egypt? The logistics were already taken care of by God. If “Babylon” was referring to Rome, that would be a logistical nightmare.
    Peter would then escort them for their gathering, to Petra. Petra has a history of flooding, and we see the earth split south west of Petra, which indicates revelation 12 has been fulfilled. The 1260 days was from April 11, AD70 to September 22, AD73.
    If you are going to make this about a pope being in Rome, ask yourself, does this fit the biblical narrative?
    Where do you see the earth split near Rome indicating where their gathering took place (this place also has to have a history of flooding)?
    Please answer the questions.

      Peter was in Babylon, Egypt, and Mark was in Alexandria, Egypt, (1 Peter 5:13)
      Peter was writing from or near Jerusalem at the time he wrote 1 Peter 1:1, for the temple was in Jerusalem, not Rome. If Peter was in Rome at the time he wrote 1 Peter 1:1, then this would make him a part of the scattered. He was writing to Jewish Christians in those 5 churches, who were scattered from Jerusalem, who had to leave for their gathering.
      They would have left to greet Mark for their gathering (1 Peter 5:13) then continued on by boat to Peter, who was 100 miles south. Do you see the water channels leading/funneling to Babylon, Egypt? The logistics were already taken care of by God. If “Babylon” was referring to Rome, that would be a logistical nightmare.
      Peter would then escort them for their gathering, to Petra. Petra has a history of flooding, and we see the earth split south west of Petra, which indicates revelation 12 has been fulfilled. The 1260 days was from April 11, AD70 to September 22, AD73.
      If you are going to make this about a pope being in Rome, ask yourself, does this fit the biblical narrative? Where do you see the earth split near Rome indicating where their gathering took place?

    It's not confirmed that they were Catholic. Paul was surely not Catholic, which is evident from his writings, for example in Herbrews Paul speaks that in the NT there should not be many priests like in the OT, but that Jesus is our only priest, the highpriest. In 1 Timothy Paul says that there's only one mediator between God and men, the man Jesus Christ, which disproves the mediation of so called priests and saints

      Mediator between God & man is Jesus. Have you told anyone about Christ or the Bible? Then that is being an intercessor. So learn the teaching of the Christian church founded by Jesus.

      So what was Church of Christ? Lutheran? No “Christian” denomination exists for another 1500 years.

      Go ahead with your own understanding. Go base your salvation to the scripture
      John 5:39-40 Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.
      And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.
      Little you know that there is a lot of manuscripts that the Catholic Church holds. If you are follower of the Lord, prove it us. No, prove it to Lord by your works. You cant even obey, so thats a minus point for you. You cant just bark around but no bite. God bless you

      The early church was not Catholic.
      Not if you compare it cot modern papacy.
      No rosary, no praying to saints, no confession etc.
      The early church did not have a sovereign state, a bank, a political corps, an army.
      The early church did not consider itself above the law of the land. It did not harbour child abusers.
      The early church did not mince about in red robes and gowns.
      Modern Catholicism is mystery Babylon.
