There already were.. People will do anything to interpret at their own will and make profit with it with their new churches that are nothing but money hungry.
first of all there are not 35,000 denominations. Secondly the first church was not catholic. It was a church organized by the Apostle Paul.
The founder of the first catholic church was actually a christian/pagan named Emporer Constantine.
Catholicism itself has split into many denominations.
Ultimately WHO CARES??
What is the foundation of this entire thing?
JESUS CHRIST!
Do you know how many "Christians" catholics" "Lutherans" are going straight to hell?
remember this verse" Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
There is but ONE God, One faith, One Baptism... Read John Chapter 17 - Jesus prayed for "THE CHURCH" to be ONE just He and the Father are ONE. Learn history people, what was there before the protestant revolt of the 1500's? The Roman Catholic Church. The RCC is doing and has always done God's will, which is the carrying out of what Jesus instructed and taught the 12 apostles to do. DO THIS IN REMEMBRANCE OF ME....that is a commandment....Jesus said if you love me you will keep my commandments... Shall I go on? and Thayla, get a grip girl, those churches you names that are supposedly older than the catholic church - well guess what? They are in union with the RCC too, so you dint have a clue what you are even talking about... God bless you all and may God the Father of mercies forgive you all, for you know NOT what you do or say is even wrong...
