QuestionใHOW TO RESPOND TO A PROTESTANT, WHEN THEY SAY ๐
โThe Catholic Church was created by the Emperor Constantine when he made Christianity the official religion
of the Roman Empire.โ ? ๐ค
COMPLETE REFUTATION OF THIS LIE๐โค๏ธ
ANSWER ใAlthough Constantine is often credited with being the first Christian emperor, he didnโt make Christianity the official religion. What he did, together with his colleague and rival, Licinius, was issue the Edict of Milan in A.D. 313, which proclaimed religious toleration for Christianity among the other religions in the empire.
He also didnโt create the Catholic Church, which already existed in his day. Indeed, it had already been known by that name for more than 200 years. The Catholic Church was Founded by JESUS CHRIST our LORD upon St.Peter the rock... Matthew 16:16-19
And interestingly, the word Catholic is actually found in Acts 9:31 in the Greek.
Acts 9:31: โThe church throughout all [Greek: แผฮบฮบฮปฮทฯฮฏฮฑ,ฮบฮฑฮธโ,แฝ ฮปฮทฯ ,ฯแฟฯ ] Judea and Galilee and Sama'ria had peace and was being built up. And walking in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit, it multiplied.โ
St. Ignatius of Antioch : โWherever the bishop shall appear, there let the multitude also be; even as, wherever Jesus Christ is, there is the Catholic Churchโ (Letter to the Smyrneans 8).
โLet no one do anything of concern to the Church without the bishop. Let that be considered a valid Eucharist which is celebrated by the bishop or by one whom he ordains [i.e., a presbyter]. Wherever the bishop appears, let the people be there; just as wherever Jesus Christ is, there is the Catholic Churchโ (Letter to the Smyrneans 8:2 [A.D. 110]).
๐๐๐
So Prots... The fact that St.Ignatius of Antioch introduces the phrase โCatholic Churchโ without stopping to explain it indicates it was already in use, and he could expect people in the distant church of Smyrna to understand what it meant. This wide circulation therefore must have begun in the second half of the first century. Numerous other sources which I have stated also show that the Catholic Church is Way older than Constantine .
So stop being Stubborn and come home to Rome.
Tertullian also Mentions to the Catholic Church ๐
โWhere was [the heretic] Marcion, that shipmaster of Pontus, the zealous student of Stoicism? Where was Valentinus, the disciple of Platonism? For it is evident that those men lived not so long agoโin the reign of Antonius for the most partโand that they at first were believers in the doctrine of the Catholic Church, in the church of Rome under the episcopate of the blessed Eleutherius, until on account of their ever restless curiosity, with which they even infected the brethren, they were more than once expelledโ (Demurrer Against the Heretics 30 [A.D. 200Even St.Cyprian of Carthage Referss to the Catholic Church ๐
โYou ought to know, then, that the bishop is in the Church and the Church in the bishops; and if someone is not with the bishop, he is not in the Church. They vainly flatter themselves who creep up, not having peace with the priest of God, believing that they are secretly in communion with certain individuals. For the Church, which is one and catholic, is not split or divided, but is indeed united and joined by the cement of priests who adhere to one anotherโ (Letters 66[67]:8 [A.D. 253]).

For those making the "๐ค" emoji .... I know it sounds weird , but this is a Priest who Made the Prayer . It's not Heretical .
As this as been Given to me By a Priest..... I see No reason for it Being Heretical .
The charismatic movement within the Church, has Not Been Condemned. However, discernment is crucial, as misuse and Abuses can occur, similar to what Abominations Protestants Do .

Among the Apostles, almost everywhere, Peter alone merited to personify the whole Church. On account of this personification, which he alone bore, he merited to hear, โI will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven.โ For these keys were not given to one man, but to the unity of the Church. Hence, the preeminence of Peter is clear, and yet in him, the Churchโs universal authority is also signified. Just as Peter was by nature one man, by grace he was many; in one, he bore unity; in many, he bore universality.

Today we celebrate the Feast of the Chair of St. Peter (the First Pope). This is his actual chair, a precious relic. St. Peter, continue to pray for your successor Pope Francis and for the Holy Catholic Church. Amen...

Burn Protestant literature wherever you may find it
I have permission from a Priest to discard Protestant Literature
Yesterday someone gave me a book containing the New Testament in Spanish, at first I thought โoh neat something to add to my collectionโ
I later found out it was a Protestant translation ๐คฎ
So today after Mass I asked my Priest what to do with it
When I told him it was Protestant translation his expression was a mix of shock and disgust, he told me โto throw it in trashโ and if I decide to keep it I should never use it
I now have Authority to discard Protestant Literature
