Sure,the Church founded by Jesus Christ vanished for 1,500 years, then reappeared in your comment section. Meanwhile Ignatius of Antioch is out here in 107 AD casually saying ‘Catholic Church.’ Keep trying to rewrite history- we own it 😀

The apparitions were not the Real Mary. The apparitions were demons pretending to be Mary. Do not be deceived

I hate to tell you this, but the date of Easter is based on Jew-hatred. The earliest Christians celebrated the resurrection in line with Passover. This is clear from early church father writings. Even the Greek word that the KJV translates as Easter is "Pascha" (Acts 12:4), clearly Passover. So why did the Council of Nicaea change Easter to the first Sunday after the full moon after the Spring Equinox? Here are quotes from Constantine himself: “And first of all, it appeared an unworthy thing that in the celebration of this most holy feast we should follow the practice of the Jews, who have impiously defiled their hands with enormous sin, and are, therefore, deservedly afflicted with blindness of soul. For we have it in our power, if we abandon their custom, to prolong the due observance of this ordinance to future ages by a truer order…” “Let us then have nothing in common with the detestable Jewish crowd; for we have received from our Savior a different way.” Christians ask me why I don't celebrate Resurrection Day along with the rest of Christianity. This is why. The good news is this year, Easter falls on the Sunday during Passover, which is a great biblical day to celebrate the resurrection, in line with the Apostles. Consider this for next year, when the calendars diverge again. This is not Judaizing. This is restoring. And being honest about Christian history.

Sola Scriptura: The doctrine where everyone has their own plain meaning of Scripture….. and somehow everyone else is a heretic.
