In this episode we continue our conversation with Professor and Pastor Greg Axe of Crest Bible Church. We examine the beliefs & works of a few early influencers of the Roman Catholic Church who came to prominence between 325-500 AD, including Ambrose, Augustine & Jerome.
Greg explains how Ambrose’s political office in the Roman Empire was key to him assuming the role of bishop of Milan, Italy. We discuss how Augustine’s theology gave way to Catholic doctrines such as baby baptism, purgatory, works-based salvation, penance, supersessionism and a papal theocracy. Lastly, we look into Jerome’s monastic lifestyle and his creation of the Latin Vulgate, which became the official bible for the Roman Catholic Church.
