This book presents a detailed exploration of the origins and evolution of the Catholic Church, challenging the widely held belief that it is a direct continuation of the early Christian church established by Jesus and the apostles. The author argues that the Catholic Church, as we know it today, emerged centuries later as a result of a gradual process of distortion and corruption. Drawing on historical records and biblical texts, the author meticulously examines the key events and figures that shaped the development of Catholicism, shedding light on its often-contradictory doctrines and practices. The book provides a comprehensive critique of the Catholic Church's claims to apostolic succession and its use of traditions to justify its authority. It also delves into the church's troubled history, marked by violence, persecution, and the suppression of dissent, contrasting it with the teachings of peace and compassion espoused by Jesus. Ultimately, this book invites readers to question the legitimacy of the Catholic Church as the true representative of Christianity, exposing its fundamental departure from the original message and values of Jesus and the early apostles.
