Lesson Transcript
Do you view the early Christians as infallible? Of course not. I don't know of anyone on earth who does. They were fallible people. I think they carry a lot of weight when they speak in unison, and on so many topics they do. If it's just one early Christian who says something or other, hey, yeah, I give some weight to his idea, but I don't like—that's not necessarily correct if they're not all saying it. But, you know, Tertullian made the point.
He said, "If we have strayed from the apostolic faith, how did we all stray away from it and end up in the same place?" I mean, because we've seen this with the Reformation.
