Distinguishing Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox Churches from Christianity?edit
Latest comment: 1 year ago1 comment1 person in discussion
I suggest that this sentence be edited:
"Succession of Presbyters, or presbyteral succession, refers to the notion in Christianity that Apostolic Succession can be conferred from presbyter-to-presbyter (priest-to-priest), as opposed to the contemporary understanding held by the Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodoxchurches, which teach the bishop is the sole minister of ordination."
I think it is inaccurate because it distinguishes Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox churches from Christianity, when in reality the Catholic Church and the Eastern Orthodox churches are Christian. Please see Catholic Church and Eastern Orthodoxy which refer to each church as Christian churches.
