A Roman Catholic and A Protestant Conversation
The Nature of Authority in the Church
|
The follow conversation is between Roman Catholic Apologist John Martignoni and non-denominational Christian Pastor Edward Walker III. I will do my best to present each of their comments in their proper context and in the correct order. I will use purple to highlight the person responding on the other person and red for the person being responding to and green for comments previously made. I will help by highlighting each persons name initially to show which one is talking.
