Different day same bigotry.






This was way more scandalous than people talk about. Basically a repeat of Assisi and it went unnoticed?


The Didache was written before most Christians had a "Bible." It had baptism rites. Eucharistic prayers. Bishops. Deacons. Fasting rules. A full liturgical calendar. The structure Protestants call "Catholic invention" was already running. A thread.

The first Christians did not gather around a Bible study. They gathered around the Eucharist. The New Testament canon would not be finalized for centuries, but the Mass was already the center of Christian life from the beginning.




Baptism saves



2 Timothy 3:16-17 says all Scripture is God-breathed and profitable, so the man of God may be complete and equipped for every good work. Protestants read that and somehow get: "Only Scripture is God-breathed, Scripture alone is profitable, and Scripture alone is sufficient." One problem. Paul never said that. Try that logic anywhere else: "All grapes were created by God and are profitable, so that a man may be nourished, healthy, and strong for every good work." Read like a Protestant, this means: "Only grapes were created by God, and grapes alone are profitable for nourishment." That is obviously absurd. Why? Because "all X is profitable" does not mean "only X is profitable." 2 Timothy 3 proves Scripture is inspired and profitable. It does not prove sola Scriptura. That doctrine has to be smuggled into the verse, because it is not actually in the verse.
