@@Cyprus_Is_Greek Christ Jesus Sabbath keeping church has never been part of The Ecclesiastical Christendom , even though some of his children have come out of That sun worshiping Mystery Religion. . . www.sabbathtruth.com/portals/20/documents/truth_triumphant.pdf HOW HER RIVALS IN RELIGION COUNTERFEITED THE PROPHECIES Apostolic Christianity, as a religion supremely superior to paganism, caused widespread upheavals in the world. So strong were her prospects of success that Jesus and His apostles were fearful of the great deceptions that would come because of imitations and counterfeits. To make a clear cut distinction between these counterfeits and genuine Christianity, new light from heaven was needed. Such revelations were provided in the last books of the New Testament. All the troth's needed to chart the future course of gospel believers were to be found in the messages from the apostles. There is little point in claiming that a certain church or doctrine came down from the days of the apostles. Sin came down from the days of the apostles, and the devil also was active at that time and before. It is not so much what came down from the days of the apostles, as what came down from the apostles themselves. Even in his day the apostle Paul wrote: “The mystery of iniquity doth already work.” The growth and final form of the mystery of iniquity which was already operating before Paul’s death is seen more clearly in the stow of the Church in the Wilderness. THE APOSTOLIC ORIGINS OF THE CHURCH IN THE WILDERNESS The rise of Christianity and the spread of the Church in Syria was startling in its rapidity. IN CONTRAST with the four hundred years of silence between Malachi and Matthew, the coming of the great Redeemer brought to the world a powerful, stimulating message and introduced a marvelous new era. None of the prophets before Him had been permitted to change the bases of the dispensation introduced by Moses. Jesus Christ, however, was that Prophet predicted by Moses who was to usher in a new dispensation. He gave to man a new revelation from Jehovah. The twelve apostles, going forth to promulgate the teachings of Jesus, formed the charter membership of the apostolic church which flourished for about five hundred years. Then gradually the combined heretical sects seized the power of the nations and drove the true church into the wilderness. Paul was willing to risk his life by performing the required ceremonies in the central sanctuary of Israel if only he might avert a rupture between Gentile and Jewish Christianity. He knew that the Gentile believers had received only a meager training in the profound truths of the gospel. Is it for this reason that practically all his epistles are written to the young, inexperienced Gentile churches? Moreover, in vision he foresaw the crushing opposition which would grow into an apostate church and which would PURSUE THE TRUE CHURCH FOR 1260 years, and therefore, he yearned to link the new Gentile churches to an experienced Judaism which had turned to Christ.

The first revelations given to the gospel church were written in Greek. In later days a deep hatred sprang up between Greek and Latin churches, and Greek and Latin ecclesiastics hurled bitter words at one another. These theological controversies arose because both churches had grown ambitious and had allied themselves with kings and emperors. At length, in 1054, the Greek and Latin churches separated. Long before this the Latin state church feared the effect of the accumulated stores of Greek literature. Latin was made the ecclesiastical language of Western Europe. THE GREEK LANGUAGE, WITH ITS LITERATURE, WAS CONDEMNED BY ROMAN ECCLESIASTICISM, ITS STUDY FORBIDDEN, AND ITS WRITINGS ANATHEMATIZED. Ireland’s Celtic church in the medieval ages remained a center for instruction in Greek long after it had virtually disappeared elsewhere in Western Christendom. The knowledge of Greek was declared in the universities of the Latin hierarchy to be full of daggers and poison. For more than one thousand years it ceased to exist in the Teutonic kingdoms of Europe, except in the bosom of Greek and Celtic Christianity, and with those evangelical bodies which looked to the Scriptures as their only authority. The repulse of the Greek church by the Latin hierarchy left the former as a buffer between the astounding activities of Christianity in the East and the victorious sword of the papal kingdoms of Western Europe.

[@srfrg9707]

Some 'details' you forgot that are not details for us orthodox christians : Humbert de Moyenmoutier was the main reformist during the gregorian reformation of the roman church that took place in 1050, 4 years before he went to Constantinople. The gregorian reformation is the true reason of the schism as it founded the papal monarchy, using as model the roman and german empires. It gave to the pope the insignia of the emperor such as the red garnment and the sovereignty over the kings in the west. It created cardinals who have the role and insignia (purple) of the roman senate. It gave to the new state a chancellor who was no other that cardinal Humbert de Moyenmoutier. This was a great scandal for the Greeks, since it contradicted directly the inscructions of Jesus to the apostles when they asked who will be the first among them. Jesus replied "The kings of the nations rule over them and call themselves benefactors. Let not it be this way among you." For the Greeks it also fullfilled the vision of Saint John in the book of Revelation when the wife (jesus' wife =Church) corrupts herself with all the kings and becomes the Greate Prostitute, the one whit a corrupted chalice (doctrine).

[@orthodoxtheosis]

You left out the fact that that the Pope shut down the Greek churches in southern Italy and Sicily unless they used the Latin rite, which is why the Patriarch shut down all Latin churches in Constantinople as a response, it was an outrage to them. Plus it was decreed that only Ecumenical councils could alter the creed, which is why the Papacy changing the creed was an outrage.

[@lawrenceralph7481]

I'm sure it seemed existential to the players in the day. But now it seems sort of obscure. And yet these two faith traditions that follow Jesus Christ intimately are divided. Not sure that's what Christ wants. And why it exists today is beyond me. The wide variety of Catholics and the wonderful Orthodox people that I know seem very much the same. Is this now about two hierarchies retaining tradition? Perhaps Christianity writ large is stronger with two traditions. When one errs, the other can present a faithful meaningful critique. Competition for the improvement rather than complacency?

[@orthodoxtheosis]

@@lawrenceralph7481 it's a lot more complicated now since we've established our own dogmas and traditions, like in the West they adopted Thomism while we adopted Palamism. On the surface it looks the same, but we have different soteriology, concepts of Mary, the Trinity, concepts of the afterlife, etc. I made this post because in the video he's trying to imply that the Schism is entirely the Orthodox's fault, when in reality that simply isn't true.

[@lawrenceralph7481]

@@orthodoxtheosis I wasn't trying to do that. The schism happened. My question is why it still exists when the reasons that I was aware of no longer seem relevant. It seems these obscure (but important?) differences pale when thinking of Christ's own command (suggestion/desire?) for church unity. Do the current schismatic differences between Orthodoxy or Western Catholicism do a substantially better job of aiding followers to a good life and salvation when so few can explain the points you presented? Do their well known similarities aid the faithful more? I do no know the answer. Today the division seems a more about the traditions of the men in the pointy caps than serving Christ and the salvation of the members. But truly you do know more about this than I do, so I defer with respect. The reasons must be sound and important, at a level beyond the ken of the faithful.

[@orthodoxtheosis]

@@lawrenceralph7481 the original reasons are still there, the filioque and Papal Supremecy are still major obstacles to unity The problem with church unity is corruption of dogma and tradition, as many have their own idea of it. There's a right way to do it, we believe in the teachings of the early church fathers and 7 ecumenical councils, but the Catholic Church has the Pope determine tradition, so it changes on a whim. Your third question won't have a clear cut answer because you have to establish what a good life is and what salvation is. We have our own ideas, but you have to decide for yourself what that is, so it's kind of difficult to answer that question. Yes, we both believe in salvation and serving Christ, but how to do that is where the differences start. You'll have to be more specific to what you want to know, so go ahead ask me whatever you want.

Lee Strobel was an award winning investigative journalist who became a Christian after trying to discredit the historical Jesus. Lee Strobel admitted it would take more faith to maintain his atheism than to become a Christian after Lee looked at the evidence. Lee Strobel's "Case for Christ" is a very interesting book that can be summarized by two links I have shared below: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sHXPmIp5aZ6cp6M kzbin.info/www/bejne/bGjYm2Wnq7aclc0

[@warningwarning8826]

Romans 10:13-15 King James Version (KJV) "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed?" According to the Bible, you have to call on the name of Jesus and it must be in belief (faith) in order to be saved. But it is impossible to pray in faith while being scared about your own salvation. Try calling on Jesus while praying for others and that may help your faith. But you cannot be saved if you have the smallest amount of doubt. Interpreting scripture can lead to these conclusions if one accepts scripture as true.

That is over the top ignorant and shows clearly that your understanding of history is sub par to say the least. Half of Germany was catholic so why would they care about Luther? Hitler was not from a protestant family either...There were antisemitic sentiments in German before Hitler and Hitlers argument for exterminating Jews were primarily based on two things: 1: the conspiracy-theory that the Jews was the reason for Germany losing in the first world war which was an idea spread by many but probably originated with General Ludendorff. 2: So called Race-hygiene and the idea that the German people should be "purified" of people from non-European decent. Also: Hitler believed that Jews wanted to "corrupt" what he called "Aryan"-people because he thought they wanted to "dominate the world". He was an idiot.

If you are not at liberty to say the name of Jesus around others then place your phone far enough away and go to an isolated place and say His name. Now read this carefully... "For by grace are ye saved through faith..." - Ephesians (Bible) (we need to figure out what having FAITH physiologically feels like) "God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble." - James (Bible) (If you humble yourself before God he is more likely to give you grace, which is unmerited favour: God can help people to have faith if they humble themselves before him: often praising Jesus takes humility: people with good emotional intelligence might be able to detect when they have more faith or less faith: but you must worship God in spirit and in truth i.e. with sincerity) "He that cometh to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him." - Hebrews (believe that God will reward you - therefore God is good - this is why bitterness against God is dangerous when it comes to salvation) "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed?" - Romans (Call on the name of Jesus in faith. It can take years to learn to pray in faith for salvation because of fear of not being saved: fear for salvation opposes faith for salvation). Praying for someone you sincerely care about can help deal with fear and may help to say the name of Jesus in faith.

The Great Schism of 1054, in my historical analysis, was one of the most catastrophic events for medieval Christianity (and for Christian history as a whole). Note: The Great Schism of 1054 was catastrophic not only within the religious aspect, but it was also catastrophic militarily and politically. In my historical analysis, the Schism was catastrophic due to three main factors (which are interconnected): • 1) The division of the Latin and Greek churches only reinforced the rivalry and disagreements between Constantinople and Rome. • 2) The Schism of 1054 directly led to the Latin invasion of Constantinople in 1204. Had it not been for the religious division between Latins and Greeks, Enrico Dandolo's Venice would never have sacked Constantinople during the Fourth Crusade (1202-1204). The 4th Crusade, in turn, led to the fall of Constantinople in 1453. • 3) The Fall of Constantinople itself. The Fall of Constantinople (Άλωσις της Κωνσταντινουπόλεως), undoubtedly, was a direct consequence of the 4th Crusade. Note (2): In my historical analysis, the destruction of the Byzantine Empire was completely "decreed" in 1204, not in 1453. The 4th Crusade simply destroyed all the efforts made during the so-called Komnenian Restoration (1081-1180), which was carried out by the emperors Alexios I Komnenos (1081-1118), John II Komnenos (1118-1143) and Manuel I Komnenos (1143-1180). Moreover, the 4th Crusade further weakened the city that once represented the "pride of the Christians" ("Η υπερηφάνεια των Χριστιανών"), the "shield of Christianity" ("Η ασπίδα/ προστασία του Χριστιανισμού"), the "queen of the cities" ("Η βασίλισσα των πόλεων") and the "queen of the east" ("Η βασίλισσα της Ανατολής"): Constantinople! After the fall of Constantinople, therefore, all of Medieval Europe Christian world was threatened. The "shield" that Constantinople represented was "broken". The Schism of 1054, therefore, indirectly contributed for the expansion of the Ottoman Empire.

The wars between East and West were caused by geopolitical and economical reasons - Romans against Greece/Macedonians, Venice against cities on its way. Enrico Dandolo just used the opportunity to take Roman Catholic cities at Dalmatian coast and to weaken all competition at Mediterranean.

Then in 1918 the Serbs liberated the Croats from Austro-Hungarian occupation and instead of creating a Greater Serbia which the allies would have gladly given them they instead entered a union with their Slavic brothers.

Even so, on 12 December 1452, a ceremony was directed by Cardinal Isidore, sent by the Pope.

When the Western* Roman Empire collapsed the Church of Rome was left in the hands of Barbarians, and Pope Leo coronated Charlemagne as the Holy Roman Emperor, despite the fact that a legitimate Roman Emperor was still ruling the Roman Empire from Constantinople.

First of all, it must be emphasized that all the texts of the New Testament were first written in Greek. Therefore, it is logical for the Greeks to fully understand the meaning of the scriptures without any traslation. In the scriptures, and specifically in Greek, it writes "I also tell you this; that you are Peter and on this stone of your confession I will build my Church unscathed". Meaning, Christ is not going to build his church on Peter, but on Peter's confession that Jesus is the Son of God. Also, the Apostles were equal apostles among themselves. No one was superior to the other. Also Pope John VIII also participated in the 8th Ecumenical Council. It was there that filioque was convicted for the first time. Obviously the Papal Church thinks that dogma is food and you can add salt whenever you feel it is tasteless.

The Byzantine's where so oppressive the Christian Communities of the Middle East and Egypt invited the Muslims to take over since it was felt that the Muslims could be no worse than the Byzantines in their treatment of non-Byzantine Christians. Also, while the Roman Church was not a picture of innocence, they had reasons for acting as they did like the closing of all Latin Churches and murder of the Latin Community in Constantinople numerous times. The disagreements between the Pope and the Patriarch was not over who is the head of the Church (the Ecumenical Councils settled that, but what authority and powers that office has.

The Great Schism came about due to a complex mix of religious disagreements and political conflicts. One of the many religious disagreements between the western (Roman) and eastern (Byzantine) branches of the church had to do with whether or not it was acceptable to use unleavened bread for the sacrament of communion. (The west supported the practice, while the east did not.) Other objects of religious dispute include the exact wording of the Nicene Creed and the Western belief that clerics should remain celibate. These religious disagreements were made worse by a variety of political conflicts, particularly regarding the power of Rome. Rome believed that the pope-the religious leader of the western church-should have authority over the patriarch-the religious authority of the eastern church. Constantinople disagreed. Each church recognized their own leaders, and when the western church eventually excommunicated Michael Cerularius and the entire eastern church. The eastern church retaliated by excommunicating the Roman pope Leo III and the Roman church with him. While the two churches have never reunited, over a thousand years after their split, the western and eastern branches of Christianity came to more peaceable terms. In 1965, Pope Paul VI and Patriarch Athenagoras I lifted the longstanding mutual excommunication decrees made by their respective churches. Today, the two branches of Christianity remain distinct expressions of a similar faith. Roman Catholicism is the single largest Christian denomination, with more than a billion followers around the world. Eastern Orthodoxy is the second-largest Christian denomination, with more than 260 million followers. Eastern Orthodoxy includes national churches, such as the Greek Orthodox Church and Russian Orthodox Church.

Latin Empire(Catholics), 1204-1261. The Latin conquest of Constantinople was a disaster for both the Greeks and ultimately, for the Western Europeans. The former unified territory of the empire was fragmented into several competing states, some ruled by Byzantine princes, other by Latin feudal lords. Warfare among these small competing states became constant- the only beneficiaries were the Muslim Turks in Anatolia, who used the feuding of the Christians to extend their domain to the shores of the Aegean Sea. It again appeared that the empire was on the verge of extinction. However, a military savior arose to rally the last vestiges of Byzantine power. Michael Palaeologus (1259-1282), the emperor in exile at Nicaea, managed to reconquer Constantinople from Latins in 1261, establishing the last Byzantine imperial dynasty.

[@tripleh327]

that is not enitrely true that is only the colorful story, the real story behind it was that the pope actually wanted a divided italian pensinsula fragmented and not united under a central power because it was much easier to exploit it and for the pope to survive as a temporal ruler for 1500 years the popes tried with all thier effort to undermine and prevent any kind of complete pensinsular power slowing down the process of national unification and creation of national powers that in other states was already complete in 1500-1600 while in italy would come to an end only during the late industrial revolution period and near the beginning of the last century when the normans invaded southern italy the pope recognized their conquest and by that act created the kingdom of sicily, a kingdom that with many denomination(neaples, 2 sicilies) and rulers (germans emperors, aragonian french and spanish kings, ausburgs emperors), will only come to an end in 1860 during italy unifications wars that is also true from a territorial gain perspective because with the catholics normans kings the enitre sothern italy would become a latin territory reducing greek and orthodox influence in the peninsula

7:30 IMPORTANT: The First Council of Constantinople was a council of Christian bishops convened in Constantinople in AD 381 by the Roman Emperor Theodosius I. This second ecumenical council, an effort to attain consensus in the church through an assembly representing all of Christendom, except for the Western Church, confirmed the Nicene Creed, expanding the doctrine thereof to produce the Niceno-Constantinopolitan Creed, and dealt with sundry other matters. It met from May to July 381 in the Church of Hagia Irene and WAS AFFIRMED as ecumenical in 451 at the Council of Chalcedon.

You cannot discuss "Filioque" without first addressing the Trinitarian question, which plagued Church Councils since the very first Council. The nature of God, the relationship between the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit's involvement in this was far from clear or agreed for almost a thousand years. The Eastern church was more heavily influenced by Judaism, which was strictly monotheistic and the concept of a Triune deity would have been anathema. The concept is not explicit in the New Testament. The Western Church was much more heavily influenced by philosophical thought and read much of it into scripture and oral Christian tradition. The first Council's creed was by no means expressing a Triune deity and it took several hundred years before any agreement on the structure (if any) of the Trinity began to express itself into the Creed. Even then, the Eastern Church preferred a hierarchical Trinity, whereas the Western Church preferred a Trinity that was fully co-equal, co-eternal and co-substantial. Hence the "Filioque" disagreement. "Filoque" means "and from the Son", which is an expression around the provenance of the Holy Spirit. According to the Eastern Church, the Spirit proceeds only from the Father. The Western Church would have it proceed also from the Son. Of course, the political differences and power games between the bishops of the East and West went far beyond doctrinal issues, but the disagreement over the nature of the deity provided sufficient basis for the final schism.

Well... with the Latin church’s interpretation of how God functions and how our religion is, there was a large problem during those times as the Latin church believed (and later, this became the standard belief for Protestants and Orthodox Christians) that the Holy Spirit and the Son were not an extension of the Father, but equal persons (the former belief that God is the Father and the Son and Holy Spirit are extensions with distinct roles under God the Father, this belief was displaced by the belief of “three equal persons” under a God-head). It’s interesting as questions are raised, such as: “Why are there three Gods in Christianity?” (The mistake coming from three -Equal- persons under a God-head). Jesus said himself that God “taught” Him (the root word in Greek being “to impart knowledge” and/or “to instruct”), implying there was a time when God the Father knew more than Jesus. If God the Father knew more than Jesus, how is Jesus equal to the Father? Also, why would Jesus sit at the right of God the Father? Why would the Bible describe it that way instead of equalising the positions? The language would be “Jesus and God sit together” if that were the case, not Jesus having an important role but God the Father clearly having a more “senior” position (if you will). The point I am trying to make is that God the Father is ‘God’ with Jesus and the Holy Spirit as His extensions, still the same “material” or “substance” that is God but distinct and UNDER God the Father. They are still divine, but God the Father is ‘The God’ and Jesus is his ‘son’. I am not trying to say that “Jesus is nothing, he is not God” merely that He is not God the Father whom is above all things including Jesus. I’m not sure if I explained it well enough...

The church split because the decline of Roman empire. Before the decline, the western and eastern church was connected by Pax Romana and the authority rested to the patriarch at Byzantine No matter what kind of schism between Rome and Byzantine, the Roman empire could force and mold them. After the decline, there was a wide area between eastern and western church, which until High Middle Ages was populated by pagan tribes, i.e. the Balkans. Not to mention that "barbarians" invaded Rome several times, reducing its population to less than 50,000 (from its height of 1 million). Separated from their main source of support, the western church had to manage to survive by themselves, including creating their own version of Roman Empire. The result of that was the sense of authority to challenge the patriarch in Byzantine.

There are several mistakes in this video. One of them is that Filoque would be a mistranslation. False. It appeared in the Visigoth kingdom of Spain, in order to fight the Arianism of the Visigoths, that dated back from the times of Valens, emporor of Constantinople, who converted the Goths from mainstram Christianity to Arianism. Filioque was placed in the spanish creed to fight Arianism. It worked, somewhat at lest. The Franks, the northen neighours of the Visigoths, took this and added to the Creed, in order to get poltiical and cultural independence from Constantinople. Charlemagne is considered the political artisan of this. Saint Photios of Constantinople denounced very clearly the heresy and the lack of ecclesiology. In the Eastern Orthodox church, in order to a teching to be accepted as truth, I needs to be accepted by the Fullness (Pleroma) of the Church, that includes all Orthodox Christians who have the true faith and have the true Baptism. Ecumenical Councils are manifestations of the Pleroma and they are accepted by the Pleroma as real Ecumenical Councils, not false ones. The Church as the real, mystical Body of Christ, is through whom God speaks without mistake, so there is infailibility. Any member of the Church, no matter if layman, monk or clergy is not infailable and can be wrong, but the Church in Pleroma. Western Christianity renounced this understanding of the Pleroma gradualy and turned into what we now call the Roman Catholic church. In there, the authority of the Pleroma was replaced by the authority of the Pope. The final part of the Schism is considered the 1204 conquest of Constantinople by the crusaders.

It was used for the first time in the third century to refer to the patriarch of Alexandria, and was commonly used to refer to any bishop, not just the bishop of Rome. The papacy is a development throughout the millenium leading up to the schism, and a big part of the schism is whether or not that development is either Orthodox or a heresy.

It's no wonder Jesus said many will seek him but few will find him. Atheists aren't seeking Christ. He's referring to so-called Christians, the goats who will be separated from the sheep on Judgement Day. God help us.

Peter's hebrew name is cepha which means rock. The first ekklesia was under Paul, James the just and peter and peter was the leader of it . So what jesus said is fulfilled . Peter later found few more ekklesias but never did rome have any preference

Another papism myth and conjecture, Stay on the facts. Never any apostle recognised the ''primacy'' of Peter. There aren't any documents about this. The center of Christianity is Jesus Christ. I am life and love said our lord. Whoever follows me and believes will be saved.

@@AntonioTripodi17 I would hope not, seeing as the final judgement is not ours to make but God's. According to the Bible, the church has always been those who are followers of Christ, true Christians, regardless of denomination. Not an institution.

Romanism (Roman Catholicism) is an amalgomation religion - a mixture of pagan Babylonian and Greek mythology with Christianity. The result is a religion that is not Christian. The origin of the Roman Catholic Church: In 313 AD, Emperor Constantine made the religion legal - meaning it was acceptable for them to worship openly. Churches were then built throughout the whole empire. When Roman Emperor Theodosius (379-395) decreed that Christianity was to be the official religion of the empire and in 391 AD it became illegal to worship other gods. Thousands of pagans flooded into the churches in Rome and brought their pagan beliefs and traditions with them and merged them with Christianity, resulting in a bizarre conglomerated religion known today as Roman Catholicism. One of those ancient pagan beliefs was that there is a place of purification (Purgatory) where souls went to make satisfaction for their sins and earn freedom back to the world of the living. The Greeks got the idea of purgatory from the Babylonians. It is seen in the Babylonian Epic of Gilgamesh, where Gilgamesh pays a ferryman for passage into the underworld from which he sought to rescue his friend Enkidu. The Greeks adopted this belief and it became known as Hades in their mythology. In 606 A.D the Roman emperor Phocas named Pope Bonaface III the universal pope over all of the churches. This is the origin of the imagined authority of the Roman Pope over Christianity and beginning of the Papacy. Two groups of Bible believing Christians, the Waldenses and the Albigenses, were the forerunners of protestantism. They were heavily persecuted by Rome. Whenever Rome could find no evidence of heresy in someone, they would simply wrongfully charge them with being a Manakian - one who believed that there is a god of good and a god of evil, in order to justify their persecute of them. Catholics claim that Roman Catholicism is the original Christianity and church, but that is false. Over 40 Christian communities were established by the year 100, many in Anatolia, also known as Asia Minor, such as the Seven Churches of Asia. None of this was Roman Catholicism. By the end of the first century, Christianity had already spread to Rome, India, and major cities in Armenia, Greece and Syria, serving as foundations for the expansive spread of Christianity, eventually throughout the world. This was almost 400 yrs before the formation of Roman Catholicism, thus Catholicism is not the "original church" or "original Christianity". Catholicism was formed by a mixing of Greek pagan gnosticism and polytheism with Christianity. 42 CE - 62 CE - St. Paul goes on missionary journeys across Asia Minor, Greece, and Rome. c. 49 CE - Paul the Apostle visits Philippi in Macedon. c. 50 CE - c. 60 CE - Letters of Paul. c. 50 CE - c. 60 CE - Establishment of various Christian communities in the Eastern Mediterranean, Greece, Egypt, and at least the city of Rome. c. 50 CE - c. 70 CE - The early Christian document the Didache is composed. . 60 CE - An early Christian community is established at Gortyn, Crete. 64 CE - Unofficial persecution of Christians in Rome. 64 CE - The great fire in Rome. c. 65 CE - c. 100 CE - The tales of the life and work of Jesus (gospels) composed. 66 CE - 73 CE - The Jewish Revolt against Rome. c. 69 CE - c. 70 CE - The Gospel of Mark. 70 CE - The city of Jerusalem is besieged and captured by Rome; the Second Temple destroyed. c. 70 CE - The rise of Christianity contributes to the cultural and physical decline of the city of Ephesos. c. 85 CE - The Gospel of Matthew. c. 95 CE - The Gospel of Luke and Acts of the Apostles. c. 100 CE - c. 200 CE - Nanshe's symbol of the fish used by new faith of Christianity. c. 162 CE - c. 166 CE - Marcus Aurelius persecutes new sect of Christianity. 202 CE - The earliest record of a Christian church at Edessa. c. 239 CE - c. 330 CE - Life of Saint Gregory the Illuminator who is credited with bringing Christianity to Armenia (dates disputed). 249 CE - 10 Christians are famously martyred at Gortyn in a wild animal hunt. c. 300 CE - c. 400 CE - Christianization of Lutetia. c. 300 CE - c. 350 CE - Christian Basilica built at Nemea. c. 300 CE - c. 400 CE - Rise of Christianity in Egypt replaces Heka and old religion with new model of belief. c. 300 CE - Belief in Apophis declines with the rise of Christianity.

Here are just a few of the abominable practices of Catholicism. Catholics claim Mary is a mediator between God and man, and they believe that you cannot be saved unless she allows you to come to Christ. This is abominable according to God. Scripture tells us, 1Timothy 2[5] For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; But Catholics tell us, "Blessed Virgin Mary, who can worthily repay you with praise and thanks for having rescued a fallen world by your generous consent! Receive our gratitude, and by your prayers obtain the pardon of our sins. Take our prayers into the sanctuary of heaven and enable them to make our peace with God." www.catholic.org/prayers/prayer.php?p=904 Mary was not perpetually a virgin: Matthew 1[24] Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:[25] And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn [pro¯totokos] son: and he called his name JESUS. All have sinned except Jesus - Romans 3:10-12 Hebrews 4:15 - Catholic Church claims Mary was sinless Jesus is the only mediator between man and God - 1Timothy 2:5 - Catholic Church says Mary is co-mediator with Christ Jesus offered his life on the cross once for all - Hebrews 7:27 and 10:10 - Catholic Church says the priest perpetually sacrifices Christ on the alter at mass All Christians are saints and priests - Ephesians 1, 1Peter2 - Catholic Church says priests are a special cast within the Christian community All Christians should know that they have eternal life - 1John 5:13 - Catholic Church teaches that Christians cannot and should not know if they have eternal life The seventh day of the week is the Sabbath of the Lord - Exodus 20:6-10 - Catholic Church admits they substituted the 1st day of the week for the 7th day of the week claiming the church has the authority to alter the law of God We should call no religious leader Father - Matthew 23:9 (Jesus) - Catholic Church teaches we should call priests Father Do not pray with vain repetitions (Matthew 6:7) - Catholic Church teaches repetitive prayer Confess our sins to God and only God can forgive our sins - Catholic Church teaches that we must confess sins to priests for forgiveness
