The Roman Catholic Church: Born from Politics, Not Truth

🏛️ The Birth of the Catholic Church
The Catholic Church was not born from the teachings of Yeshua (Jesus) or His Hebrew disciples—it was born in Rome, under Constantine’s rule, as a political tool.

In 325 AD, at the Council of Nicaea, the Roman Empire officially created a new version of the faith. They blended truth with pagan traditions, replaced Hebrew foundations with Greek philosophy, and installed Roman bishops as rulers of this new “universal” (Catholic) church.

This was not the assembly (ekklesia) that Yeshua built.

It enforced Sun-day worship instead of the Sabbath.

It celebrated December 25, the birthday of the sun god, not the biblical Messiah.

It replaced Passover with Easter, a pagan fertility festival.

It introduced man-made creeds and traditions, while silencing the Torah and the teachings of the disciples.

It used fear, law, and wealth to build a religious empire.

The birth of the Catholic Church was not the birth of Christianity—it was the Romanization of it. The original message of Yeshua was buried beneath gold, power, and political ambition.

"When Rome Took Over the Faith"

"The Catholic Church Was Born in Rome, Not Jerusalem"

It hits right at the core of the issue — the shift from the Hebrew, Jerusalem-based faith of Yeshua and His disciples to the Latin-speaking, Roman-based institution that arose later.

🕰️ When Did They Switch to Latin?
The early assemblies (ekklesia) — especially in Jerusalem, Antioch, Edessa, and beyond — used Hebrew, Aramaic, and sometimes Greek, depending on the region.

But Latin became dominant only after Christianity was absorbed into the Roman Empire, specifically:

🔎 Timeline of Latin in the Church:
Before 313 AD:

Latin was used in Rome for civil matters.

Most Christian writings were in Koine Greek, Hebrew, or Syriac-Aramaic.

Latin was not yet the language of the Church.

313 AD – Constantine’s Edict of Milan:

Christianity is legalized.

Latin begins creeping into church administration.

380 AD – Edict of Thessalonica (Theodosius I):

Christianity becomes the official religion of the Roman Empire.

Latin now becomes the official Church language.

Pagan temples converted to churches.

Greek texts are translated into Latin.

Late 4th century – Jerome’s Latin Vulgate Bible (c. 382–405 AD):

Marks the full Romanization of the Bible.

Hebrew and Aramaic roots pushed aside.

Church liturgy shifts into Latin across the Western Empire.

✅ Summary:
The Catholic Church officially adopted Latin after 313 AD, but it wasn’t until 380–400 AD that Latin fully replaced Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek in the Western Church.
