If there's one thing that unites non-Catholics of all stripes, it's a refusal
to accept the Church's teaching on the authority of the Pope. Tragically,
that refusal has led to wide divisions among, and heated arguments between,
Christians all over the world.
Catholic apologist Tim Staples knows these arguments all too well. Having
once been a "Bible-believing Fundamentalist" himself, he took great delight
in convincing Catholics that their belief in the Pope's authority was just
a lot of Romanist nonsense based on human tradition instead of Scripture.
But then Staples was challenged to actually study the faith he was bashing.
After scouring Scripture, history, and the writings of the Church Fathers,
Staples was forced to conclude that Christ himself had established the
institution of the Papacy.
Staples then took his exhaustive research on papal authority and
turned it into a terrific new five-part audio series: "The Shocking Truth
about the Pope and the Church Fathers." In it, Staples shares the mountain
of Scriptural and historical evidence he has uncovered to support Catholic
teaching on the authority of the pope.
And now, for a limited time, you can own this amazing set for an amazing
price: $29.95. That's a savings of almost 15%!

The Shocking Truth about the Pope and the Church Fathers
By Tim Staples
##########################################################
A great place to start when discussing Catholicism with non-Catholic
Christians is the Bible. And that's exactly where Staples begins. He shares
Scripture after Scripture to clearly show:
• the unquestioned authority of Christ,
• how Christ passed his authority on to Peter and intended
for him to lead his Church on earth,
• how more than once Peter exercised this authority in the
early Church, and
• that Christ intended for Peter's authority to be passed on to
his successors.
Staples then moves on to the teachings and customs of the Church Fathers.
For as strong as the Scriptural evidence is, the beliefs and practices of
the early Christian Church are perhaps even more telling.
*********************************************
Historical evidence from the early Church
*********************************************
The histories written in the early centuries of the Church, coupled with
the writings of early Christians, are nearly unanimous in reporting on the
early Church's acceptance of both Peter's and his successors' authority
over not just the Church of Rome, but the local churches as well.
Altogether, Staples cites more than twenty-eight Church Fathers, saints,
writers, and historians to make his case.
You'll also discover:
• where Christ explicitly and plainly tells us that the
Church has the final say in matters of faith, morals
and discipline;
• why rejecting the Church means rejecting Christ as well;
• how to respond when you're told that the writings of the
Church Fathers and the various historians of the era are
irrelevant because they aren't inspired;
• how non-Catholics distort the writings of the Church Fathers
and take them out of context in order to make the case against
papal authority;
• an easy answer to the absurd claim that Peter's immediate
successor, Pope St. Clement, saw himself as just another
Church elder;
• clear-cut proof that the Eastern bishops and Churches bowed
to the pope's authority over the universal Church in its early
days;
• overwhelming evidence to refute claims that ecumenical
councils didn't recognize the authority of the pope or require
his approval.
**********************************************************
Understand and defend papal authority like never before
**********************************************************
Today, more and more people, even Catholics, are rejecting the authority of
the pope — failing to understand both why the Church teaches as she does and
why papal authority is so crucial.
Fortunately, with Tim Staples' "The Shocking Truth about the Pope and the
Church Fathers" in hand, you'll have the evidence and understanding you need
to better understand what the Church teaches and why — and to help others see
the truth for themselves. Order your copy today!
