Contradictions!! When lay Catholics are questioned....


Lutero,
Contradictions!! When lay Catholics are questioned who is the Head of the Church – the reply it is the pope.
You were probably speaking to ex-Catholics who left the Catholic Church because they didn’t understand the true Catholic Teaching.
The Church teaches that Christ is the head:
792 Christ “is the head of the body, the Church.” He is the principle of creation and redemption. Raised to the Father’s glory, “in everything he [is] preeminent,” especially in the Church, through whom he extends his reign over all things.
The pope also dons the self-ordained title – “vicar of Christ” which means Christ Representative.
That is from Scripture. Jesus assigned Simon as the Shepherd over the Church; John 21:17.
Scripture teaches in the New Testament Church we are all “ambassadors or Representative’s of Christ”.
That is true. And that confirms the principle that a man can represent God.
So why this merry go round the bush?
Because Jesus named Simon, the Rock, after Himself, thus designating him in authority over the Church. Read more.
Sincerely,
De Maria
