In this episode, I present a decisive refutation of Roman Catholic authority, challenging the concept of apostolic succession and its claim to ultimate authority. Building on the six defenses I previously outlined for Roman Catholic theology, I demonstrate why this system, while pragmatic in certain respects, ultimately falls short. I argue that it is unnecessary, unbiblical, and there is a better, more faithful way to understand authority in the Church. I explore the historical development of apostolic authority, tracing its origins and evolution with the help of clear, illustrative charts. You'll gain a deeper understanding of why the Roman Catholic model, though appealing to some, does not hold up under biblical or theological scrutiny. This episode offers a compelling alternative to the Roman Catholic framework, grounded in Scripture and a more effective vision for Church authority.Get involved: Join us in exploring theology at a deeper level!
