apostolic catholic church

I am writing a paper and I need some details on how this mark of the church is related to the others (one, holy, catholic) and how we can use it today. Thank you so much! This might help me get my grade higher.

The Catholic Church is apostolic because she is founded on the apostles, in three ways:

+ She was and remains built on the foundation of the Apostles, the witnesses chosen and sent on mission by Christ himself;

+ With the help of the Holy Spirit dwelling in her, the Church keeps and hands on the teaching, the words she has heard from the apostles;

+ She continues to be taught, sanctified, and guided by the apostles until Christ's return, through their successors, the college of bishops, in union with the successor of Simon Peter, the Church's supreme pastor, the Pope.

For more information, see the Catechism of the Catholic Church, sections 857: http://www.usccb.org/catechism/text/pt1s ect2chpt3art9p3.htm#857

With love in Christ.

He started going to a Apostolic Pentecostal church a couple years ago and its brainwashed him. How do I bring him back to the Catholic Church? How do I get him out of that brainwashing church?
CATHOLICS ANSWER ONLY, PLEASE.
How do you get someone to come to the church after being this?

<b>Apostolic Pentecostalism; The Cult of Christianity</b><br>Not all religions are cults but when emotional manipulation is used to recruit members it definitely starts to fall into that category. You can read here the methods the Apostolic Pentecostal use to build their cult empires.<br><a href="http://www.associatedcontent.com/article /221631/apostolic_pentecostalism_the_cul t_of.html">http://www.associated content.comarticle/221631/apostolic_pent ecostalism_the_cult_of.html</a>

He is better wherever he wants to be.
Leave him alone.

Think positively. At least he didn't embrace Islam.

Today, I took an end of the year test for my Sunday School and one of the questions was: What is a big difference between the Orthodox Church and the Catholic Church(hint - it has to do with Mary, the mother of Jesus)?

I could not figure out the answer! Does anyone know it?
(By the way, I'm not Catholic, I'm Armenian Apostolic)

thanks!

Hmmm...I can only guess.

I thought *this* was the primary division (has nothing directly to do with Mary)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miaphysitis m#History
(Roman Catholics believing in dyophysitism).

However, I suspect that one of these things below might answer your question

a) Roman Catholics believe in the doctrine of "immaculate conception" - that Mary was conceived and born without Original Sin, the only person beside Jesus *born* without Original Sin

b) Roman Catholics believe that Mary was "ever virgin" - that she never had sexual relations during her lifetime

c) Roman Catholics believe that Mary was assumed bodily into Heaven at the moment of her death

The Pope would be a big one.
