Matthew 28:18-20: And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, to the close of the age.”
Matthew 16:18: “And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the powers of death (gates of hell) shall not prevail against it.”
The Scriptural testimony is clear, and is confirmed by history, the Church endures century after century despite all obstacles. Christ’s Church did not cease to exist and have to be reinvented at a later date. Such a hypothesis is ridiculous! Man-made religions cannot compete against the divine institution of the Catholic Church.
