so Catholics and Orthodoxs arent Christians?

Well, of course we are Christians. Are all Orthodox and Catholic Christians perfect? Are all Protestants perfect? How about the subgroups Evangelical, Pentecostal, Baptist, etc. Indeed, is any Christian at all perfect?

We set our minds and hearts and souls and bodies into restoring our relationship with God that we selfishly break easily. When we fail, we repent; when we fall, we get back up. The key is to get back up *every time.

Forgive me.

Do you even know what Christian means ?.......do you think following a man made doctrine makes you a Christian ?

EVERYTHING the Catholic doctrine teaches is contrary to what Jesus CHRIST taught...Jesus Himself said HE was the LIVING WORD of God...and NO one can not live by bread alone but by EVERY WORD from the mouth of God.....Catholics deny scripture unless it is what they desire...everything else as they say is taught by the church and it is the church they follow NOT the Word they disagree with........so how can Catholic be CHRIST-ian when they deny CHRIST !!!!?!!

same goes for Protestant man made churches....seems the one stupid is YOU

Excuse me? Both denominations are Christian.

I was an ex cat teacher for over ten years. They do not follow the Bible and worship Mary a sinner, who was used by God and the Holy Spirit, but was in need of redemption, because she was a vessel of God. All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. The saints are used as barriers to God. The Infallible human title of a mere man too. There is only one Mediator between God and Man and that is the Man Christ Jesus. God does not need additional info in his Bible or Words handed down by the Old Testament men of God, who were divinely inspired by the Holy Spirit. Changing the word of God to suit my traditions is heresy. God bless you, and I do not mind being called stupid in defense of the truth.

They are, Catholicism and Orthodox were the first two branches.
