In other words, the "concerned Christian" will be able to find a church to validate his own particular opinions, whatever they may be.
Well there you have it. Anabaptism - the one true church.
There is only one true Church and many Anabaptist make up that congregation, and there may even be a few Catholics, but only if they are ignoring the teaching of Rome.

I believe that Anabaptists, Wesleyans, and some Baptists fit that definition. Also genuinely Christian nondenominational churches too.
Reformation Churches were slow getting on board with the teaching of the Anabaptist, but most of them have come around, e.g. believer baptism and separation of Church and state. The thing that nearly no Protestant Churches can grasp, although though plainly taught by Christ, is non-resistance to evil. Because the Anabaptist laid down their carnal weapons they are despised and hated, called cowards and laughed at for their simplicity of life, yet Scripture, the life of the Lord, the lives of the Apostles, and three hundred years of primitive Christianity is on their side.
Yes, the Catholic Church is corrupt, but so is the Protestant Church who was birthed out of the Catholic Church and they brought over a lot of the false beliefs. The Anabaptist followed closer than any of the other Reformation churches and paid dearly for their close walk with Christ.
A person would have to be blind to not see that the Catholic Church is totally messed up; Protestantism, not as obvious but becoming clearer.
Revelation 17 describes the harlot church which is the Roman church and the daughters of the harlot which are the protestant churches who came out of her.

Which teachings should good Christian Catholics ignore,
the one about same sex unions?
that abortion is murder?
that we are custodians of the earth and not to be it's destroyers?
Many cults like the JW''s, the SDA's, the Christadalphians and busy themselves with demonizing the Church. You seem to fit in with them.
OK, so you are a Seventh Day Adventist. Ellen Gould White got her "prophecies" by occult channeling.Revelation 17 describes the harlot church which is the Roman church and the daughters of the harlot which are the protestant churches who came out of her.

Some anti-Catholics claim the Catholic Church is the harlot of Babylon of Revelation 17 and 18. Dave Hunt, in his 1994 book, A Woman Rides the Beast, presents nine arguments to try to prove this. His claims are a useful summary of those commonly used by Fundamentalists, and an examination of them shows why they don’t work.

I know what he means, his knowledge of Catholicism is from the Christian Taliban or other such "Bible Christian" hate cults.He means ignoring the doctrines deemed to be unbiblical.

All Catholic doctrines are found either explicitly or implicitly in Scripture. An unbiblical Catholic doctrine does not exist.
The problem is how "doctrine" is defined.
In general, doctrine is all Church teaching in matters of faith and morals. Dogma is more narrowly defined as that part of doctrine which has been divinely revealed and which the Church has formally defined and declared to be believed as revealed.

Yea, and the ISIS are really nice people, as they behead children while the parents watch. You are a naive peacenik.Well, I can see by your icon that you are not serious about the murder thing so I am supposed to believe the rest? The fruit doesn't fall far from the tree.

Not that I am aware of. If you took it to mean I said your church is a hate cult, I apologize and that is not what I intended. It's really a few radical Protestants that promote lies and falsehoods about the CC.Hate cults are liars who make a religion out of misrepresenting and demonizing the Church (in the name of Jesus) usually out of ignorance, blind prejudice and bigotry. The ego (pride) refuses correction and the same anti-Catholic garbage shows up a week later.Do I go around calling Catholicism a hate cult? Please be respectful.
