Martin Luther never sought to build his own church, but merely pointed out the same issues I’m highlighting here.

OPs intention was clearly to dunk on Protestants, unaware the irony his source presents: simplicity in corporate gathering, reading, simple sacraments, and worship.

I don’t think your argument of icons (especially artful depictions of Jesus) holds water, as emotional reactions and reminders of your personal savior is not the same as literally bowing/kneeling and praying to the dead to achieve heavenly deeds on your behalf. Again, the veil was torn. It’s finished. Why are you adding back layers of separation and human-invented dogma?

1 Timothy 2:5 actually says “For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus.”

I understand the history and lineage of the church and that seems to be the primary leg many Catholics stand on to justify these invented practices, but to ignore the changes over time and purely manufactured sacraments is disingenuous.

Mega churches are the extreme of Non Denominational. Most simply preach from the Bible.

I have several fundamental and obvious issues with the Catholic Church. For starters (and recency): Jesus Christ sacrificed himself for all of us, taking upon the past, present, and future sins of humanity.

The veil was torn… yet the Catholic Church says “no thanks, throw the ‘veil’ back up and add several layers of liturgy, idol worship, tradition, and performative chanting back to separate us from God again.”

Don’t get a small. They’re… small.

It’s not like we haven’t had any talent, though. I’m hopeful, but it feels like an unnecessary lame duck year.
