I think many Protestants can now confess that was a mistaken view. Both the church and the world would sorely lack a necessary witness if there were no papacy. If being a Protestant means willing the end to the papacy then I find myself no longer capable of willing such an act.<\/p>\n<p>This stance does not require abandoning what is good in Protestant traditions. I for one cannot leave my separated Wesleyan communion behind. The hymns, doctrine, discipline and liturgy of that tradition gave me faith and taught me to love God. But neither can I will an end to the unity the papacy clearly produces throughout the world.<\/p>\n<p>So what is to be done? Only two possibilities seem to present themselves. Either we try to find a place for our separated communities from within the Catholic Church or we find a place for Catholic unity from within our separated communities. Neither can be accomplished without willing the visible unity the papacy embodies.<\/font><\/i><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.religion-online.org\/showarticle.asp?title=3208\">LES HELE ARTIKKELEN HER<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For noen dager siden kom jeg over en artikkel som ble skrevet for akkurat to \u00e5r siden, rett etter det store inrykket\/ vitnesbyrdet hele verden fikk ved pave Johannes Paul II&#8217;s d\u00f8d og valget av pave Benedikt XVI.
