CULTIVATING SAINTS, SAGES, AND STATESMEN THROUGH THE GREAT TRADITION OF CHRISTENDOM

In this "Papal Snapshot" episode, we cover a letter from St. Isidore of Seville (c. 560-636) that very plainly asserts the papacy is divinely established by Christ. He also laid out a framework for when the Pope should and should not be obeyed.

This particular episode was "inspired" by a prominent protestant apologist who blatantly asserted the falsehood that St. Isidore did not believe the Pope had greater authority than other bishops. Once more, when you read the writings of the Fathers from beginning to end, it's a very different story.
