“How can the Catholic Church be the Church of Christ when historically they do not follow the teachings of Christ”.

You only know the teachings of Christ because CATHOLICS decided to tell you about them when they compiled the Bible.
The fullness of the faith is sacred scripture and sacred
tradition, something protestants can seem to grasp.

“But there are also many other things which Jesus did; were every one of them to be written, I suppose that the world itself could not contain the books that would be written”.

~ John 21:20-25

What about the points I brought up previously? Are you just going to ignore them even though they are completely valid? Please address the points I brought up, thanks!

Do you realize what you just said? And it's absolutely true. We have SOME of the teaching of Christ because Catholics decided to share.

Too bad they didn't let us have all the teachings. All those writings that were passed down through the ages, gone. No... we have some.

Even though God never says anything that's trivial or anything that man should ignore. But the arrogant Bishops of the early Catholic Church decided that they alone had the power to decide what part of God's word they would allow us to have and what they would destroy.

They had no right to do this. And you want me to believe that this was a good thing?
