But it's those things that really shows the greatness of our God and like the plan of all this. Like it's, there's so much, so much to unpack. You know, it's a big deal.

So the canon, as we have it, that's what we would call it, the canon of Scripture. It's like one of the official books of the Bible. It wasn't until around probably the three and four hundreds. Christianity wasn't legalized until 313. So even before then, it was illegal to be a Christian. So they were killing people left and right. They didn't even have the Bible before then.

So it was around the three and really into the 400s, not until the 400s that the actual canon of Scripture as we have it now was established. And so that in itself points out like apostolic succession. You know, a lot of people talk about just Scripture only. Yeah, of course we need the scripture, but I can't be the only thing because that was the fruit of the community's relationship with God.

And so that would, that calls in tradition. So Catholics, for our authority, we don't just refer to the Bible, we also refer to, or make reference to tradition as well. Scripture and tradition is how we, you know, where we go to for authority. So, yeah, so the Bible, 400s.

No, there's no reference to any of them. But there really wasn't an understanding of the Catholic Church as it is now. I mean, there was. But it wasn't until the Protestant Reformation that there were other sects that then broke off, you know, Protestantism. Then all the different churches that flowed out of Protestantism. Okay. Yeah.

So up until then, like, if you were a Christian, you were Catholic. Okay. Yeah. And even... Okay. Up until the 1500s. So if you were a Christian, that's what you were.

Yeah, I would say so. I would argue against that. So I would agree. We do need a direct relationship with Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ died and rose from the dead. How do we have that physical relationship with Jesus Christ now? It's through the church that he established. The church that he established and instituted with the apostles that he gave all authority to continue the ministry that he did.
