David Bercot's CD teaching: The Claims of Rome — have no basis On November 29, 2010 By Jeff FenskeIn Catholic Church, Doctrines Demystified, Doctrines of Demons?, Real History From: Scroll Publishing.com… CD: The Claims of Rome $4.95 D. Bercot. The Roman Catholic Church claims that Peter was the first pope. It further claims that the pope, or bishop of Rome, has been vested with primary authority over all other Christians as “Christ’s vicar on earth.” The Catholic Church also claims that the pope is infallible when defining matters of faith and morals. But is this what Christians originally believed? Bercot quotes from Scripture and the early Christians to demonstrate that Rome’s claims have no basis. 70 min. CD
