When you find where Jesus Christ, any of the apostles or anywhere in the Bible says "nothing should be done without the bishop", call me! smiley

ignatuis did. And for non protestant christians tradition is consider a source of doctrine.
It will be interesting if i didn't have to repeat myself. You should get glasses if you have a problem with your eyes.

Ubenedictus: and what is your point? Ever since the times of nestorius local churches has been placed under anathema irrespective of their saintly and catholic bishops of the past. If antioch enspouse an anathemize heresy then she anathemize herself irrespective of whether or not ignatuis was once bishop of antioch

Ubenedictus: just the same way a council claimed cyril and declear it church anathema. If the church enspouse heresy she is anathema. As simple as a b c


And here the duplicity of Roman Catholic apologists and the fraudulent sham of Roman Catholic arguments exposed.

1. They say their church is called "Catholic" because Ignatius gave that name to the church: but they declare Ignatius' own church "anathema"

2. They say Ignatius was a "Catholic": but they declare Ignatius' own church "anathema"

3. They say Ignatius is the one who says we must do nothing without bishops: but they declare Ignatius' own church "anathema"


Ubenedictus: the last time i checked he didn't ask. You are now grasping straws

I never said he asked; I simply asked you to inform him. wink

And obviously, I am making fun of your uneasy alliance --- both sides of it.

One side says to or at least of the other: 'you are heretics without apostolic succession and your ordinations/orders are absolutely null and utterly void!' And the other side says ......... (fill in the blanks)! grin grin grin

You follow your "tradition" and we are happy to go with the words of the Lord Jesus Christ Himself that where two or three gather in His name, He is there! smiley

And the Roman Catholic Church should stop being so idiotic trying to claim "jurisdiction" or "authority" over people who are following Jesus words over its "traditions". wink

are you saying that it is imposible for the church of antioch to fall into heresy after the death of ignatius? That is rubbish. Everything i explained is exactly on point, got back a do a little study.
Just to be clear it wasn't the church under him that was anathemized.

All I know is that despite all its claiming of Ignatius, the Roman Catholic Church currently declares the Church to which Ignatius belonged --- "anathema"!

And before you go defaming them (as is the way of the Roman Catholic Church) tell us what the Church of Antioch did to earn the anathema from the Roman Catholic Church.

you brought on the issue of anathema, so you are ignorant of the stuff you've been talking about?

what else can i expect from anglican, they claim to be 'catholics' and quote one church father, when you show them exactly what the church father wrote they run back with their tails behind their leg and ask you to explain sola scriptura showing that they are protestants.
If you cant stand the church fathers why bother quoting them?

@ Ubenedictus,

You have said enough to prove him an envious pretender.

We can now allow him "win" his war against the Catholic Church.

A war that Emperors Nero, Diocletian, Martin Luther and the communists together satan couldnt win.

From online Encyclopaedia Britannica (Schools edition; see especially the last paragraph. wink

"catholic, (from Greek katholikos, “universal”), the characteristic that, according to ecclesiastical writers since the 2nd century, distinguished the Christian Church at large from local communities or from heretical and schismatic sects. A notable exposition of the term as it had developed during the first three centuries of Christianity was given by St. Cyril of Jerusalem in his Catecheses (348): the church is called catholic on the ground of its worldwide extension, its doctrinal completeness, its adaptation to the needs of men of every kind, and its moral and spiritual perfection.

The theory that what has been universally taught or practiced is true was first fully developed by St. Augustine in his controversy with the Donatists (a North African heretical Christian sect) concerning the nature of the church and its ministry. It received classic expression in a paragraph by St. Vincent of Lérins in his Commonitoria (434), from which is derived the formula: “What all men have at all times and everywhere believed must be regarded as true.” St. Vincent maintained that the true faith was that which the church professed throughout the world in agreement with antiquity and the consensus of distinguished theological opinion in former generations. Thus, the term catholic tended to acquire the sense of orthodox.

Some confusion in the use of the term has been inevitable, because various groups that have been condemned by the Roman Catholic Church as heretical or schismatic never retreated from their own claim to catholicity. Not only the Roman Catholic Church but also the Eastern Orthodox Church, the Anglican Church, and a variety of national and other churches claim to be members of the holy catholic church, as do most of the major Protestant churches.
