Where’s that in Scripture?
When Roman Catholicism bases its bedrock of authority on an ever-changing position of leadership (just like Mormonism), it never ceases to amaze me what men can dream up. And with no real, fixed, eternal foundation by which to measure all … Continue reading

Strictly speaking, “Roman Catholic” is a contradiction of terms. Catholic means universal, Roman denotes a particular place. It is the Protestant and not the Romanist who believes in the catholic church. Protestants believe the church is universal, or catholic; Rome … Continue reading
