What are the primary differences between the Roman Pontificate and the LDS President?
score:-4
Accepted answer
The Roman Pontiff
- is a successor of St. Peter.
- has valid Holy Orders.
Thus, he shares in Christ's authority.
Q. How do we know that the bishops of the Church are the successors of the Apostles?
A. We know that the bishops of the Church are the successors of the Apostles because they continue the work of the Apostles and give proof of the same authority. They have always exercised the rights and powers that belonged to the Apostles in making laws for the Church, in consecrating bishops and ordaining priests.
Mormons cannot claim this. Theirs is a man-made sect with solely human authority.
