Catholics don't adhere to the apostolic doctrines from the scriptures alone.

Says you. Whatever.
I say the Catholics are more Apostolic than you.
I say you have added to Scripture and muddied the waters of the Apostolic doctrine.

Guestimate?
So the salvation of never dying souls are based on a guestimate?

WHAT???? Are you serious??? We can GUESS?? I can't believe I'm reading that. We don't need to guess. We don't need to guess to understand that Paul never, not one singular time anywhere in his writings or in his testimonies propagate the "Three steps" to salvation that apostolics get OCD over.
That's not guesswork, that's just fact.
But I'm guessing the Giants will make the playoffs this year.

Luke didn't write everything Peter said, I am sure Peter...
Oh wait you would never buy that argument would you?
Keep adding to the Scripture. Someday you may be as Apostolic as my Catholic brothers.

I am totally convinced that Jesus told his disciples to play golf everyday. So I'm trying me best this year to keep that commandment.

Peter and Paul didn't teach different things.

Re: Does being Apostolic make you better?
Paul told the jailer to be baptized with all his house when he preached the gospel to him. This is so simple.
31: And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.
32: And they spake unto him the word of the Lord, and to all that were in his house.
33 And he took them the same hour of the night, and washed their stripes; and was baptized, he and all his, straightway.
34: And when he had brought them into his house, he set meat before them, and rejoiced, believing in God with all his house. Acts 16:31-34
He was to believe. Then Paul gave him the word TO believe. Next the SAME HOUR they were baptized. That should be enough to convince the gainsayers. No way do the Churches that fight baptism for remission of sins do this. Does yours?
They then believed in God even the Lord Jesus Christ. Starts believe on the Lord Jesus. Ends up believing in GOD. Jesus is the God they believed in.

Sola Ecclesia isn't apostolic. It's not part of the canon.

Re: Does being Apostolic make you better?
I was in Tampa last weekend and passed by Rexarts church. It even says they are a Acts 2:38 church on the cheap painted sign on the front. I may pop in a visit next time im up. They are surely better than any of us... they maintain their Jewish roots ... which isnt at all in contradiction to the teachings of Paul to Gentiles to stay Gentiles and Jews to be Jews....
