On the subject of truth...can you handle the truth that you are likely to go to hell because you are not in Communion with the Bishop of Rome and are thus, an excommunicant?
I am completely assured of my place in Heaven (soley because of the sacrificial death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus for me). I have utmost confidence in Jesus the Christ's redemptive work on my behalf (see, it is a personal relationship that each believer must have with Jesus). My faith does not rest in the clergy, my parents, my siblings, my friends, my neighbors, you, or anyone else. My faith certainly is not dependent on religious denominationalism. My faith is in one Person: the risen Savior Jesus the Christ (that's it, He is all you need). Read my sig., it communicates the Truth about Jesus.

Such heresy, I feel for you...

You stated that you didn't need the Church to gain access to heaven= automatic excommunication for heresy...heresy against the Church is blasphemy against God. 🙂
I don't need the church to gain access to Heaven, all I need is Jesus. In fact, the church is composed of believers who all need Jesus in order to get into Heaven.

The Pope begs to differ, therefore so does Jesus. 🙂
The entire church is composed of believers who all need Jesus in order to get into Heaven. Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Jesus. This is what the Scriptures reveal.

...clearly someone doesn't understand Papal Primacy and Authority.
