<16> Simon Peter answered and said: Thou art Christ, the Son of the living God. <17> And Jesus answering, said to him: Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-Jona: because flesh and blood hath not revealed it to thee, but my Father who is in heaven. <18> And I say to thee: That thou art Peter; and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. <19> And I will give to thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven. And whatsoever thou shalt bind upon earth, it shall be bound also in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose upon earth, it shall be loosed also in heaven. <20> Then he commanded his disciples, that they should tell no one that he was Jesus the Christ. ```

If Church is clearly established in the Bible, why do Protestants exist?
Protestants exist because in the what was it
1500s
they wanted to be able to sin without being told it was bad
that big nigga Martin Luther
and think they would still go to heaven
by faith alone
Heaven exist in this universe or in a different universe
maybe it is it's different universe
so they removed any bible verse that went against the prot doctrine
what is a universe anyway
and started 50,000 different churches
what does that word mean to you
Uni+verse
Ahh, makes sense
A verse from Bible
And what is 'Orthodox?'
Another form of Protestant?
We are all in a book !
the Eastern Orthodox Church
Do Catholics worship Mary? Why do Catholics emphasize Mary so much?
Oh god
Orthodox is just heretics that didn't like the catholic church clamping down on heresy so they split
@GrandxSlam it says mary will be emphasized for generations to come in the bible
Mostly russia and the balkans

**Luke 1:46-49 - Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition (DRA)**
```Dust
<46> And Mary said: My soul doth magnify the Lord. <47> And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour. <48> Because he hath regarded the humility of his handmaid; for behold from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed. <49> Because he that is mighty, hath done great things to me; and holy is his name. ```
