1. The Church has tried to maintain a connection to the Apostlesthrough the apostolic succession of bishops, its cannon ofscripture, and its creeds. These three measures were developed overtime rather than being handed down by the apostles fully formed.How would the Church have looked without these measures? Does thischange the way we think about the Church in the present day?
