No but quoting out of context and ignoring history is.
Does the Catholic Church decide whom is upheld or whom is fallen? Or does that decision rest solely with God? Is the Catholic Church claiming to be higher that God?
The Catholic Church was begun by Jesus, He gave it the power to bind and loose.
Agree. Quoting out of context is stupid. Especially when you have the word to interpret the word.
Where did Jesus give this authority directly to the Catholic Church?
