re: Did you attend Church today?

The difference is that Protestants believe the authority of the canon is from God, not from man, while the RCC teaches that the canon is only the canon because of the authority of the Church to declare that it is such.
So, you're saying Protestants didn't have to do the heavy lifting to build the church, defend the doctrine and pay the price that early members of the church did. It was all there for you to swipe after 1500. Are there early martyrs in Protestant history? I know, having visited Scotland, you guys wrecked havoc on Catholics. Your argument about "reception" is okay. It doesn't affect me in this discussion. Yes, the authors of the New Testament received their message from God. And from their experience either at the time of Christ or in the next three centuries. I don't argue against that.
In my former life I was a Presbyterian.
Again the reason for the post is because fractionation in the Church leads to heretical thought. At least that's what I thought the preacher was doing.

In going to church on Sunday with a congregation that is a high percentage hispanic. I'm not concerned about "those people". There are some citizens of this country I am concerned with. I'd suggest republicans find a way to work with them.
I am not for mass amnesty though I suspect we will get there sooner or later.
It's worth noting that some European countries have abysmally low birth rates.

I'm confused. Are you talking about the Scriptures now or about the one, true Church?
I get the feeling there are people out there that feel the Scripture just appeared. It is in fact at first an oral history of the early church and Christ. It was later brought into writing whether through actual apostles (Matthew, John), Paul or those (Luke, et.al.) who knew them and wrote it down. It is Christ's "story" and his teachings. And there were "wise men" who had to decide what was to become canon and writings that were not. Because all writings came after the death of Christ. It did not fall into our hands. There was work involved. And it was these men who decided upon canon and their successors who then carefully guarded the Scripture against heretical movements even way back in the early centuries (Magisterium). And it remains canon to this day because it has been preserved, faithfully. And yet, we still have offshoots who want to change it.
And that was the theme for the OP.

Well Hezbollah is sending missiles into Israel and Hezbollah is an Iranian proxy. And we are already in a war whether dragged into it or not. And we obviously have our hands full and trying to find a way out. Because we have not bombed them to hell or whatever he said.

but "received".
Okay. But all scripture for Protestants and Catholics came through the same people, who gave it all for the church. Some of them trace back to the time of Christ. It's a far cry from where we are now where 40,000 different Christian sects can act upon their permutation of belief as they hang a shingle on a building down the road.

Do you not think the Catholic church interprets scripture in its own way?
Do you know the Catholic Church or our forebears assembled the written scripture as the New Testament (New Covenant)? It did not fall out of the sky. The scripture you read today was chosen by early Catholic leaders in the first few centuries AD.
