By AD 107, Ignatius of Antioch could already refer to the Christian Church as the Catholic Church and to the hierarchy of bishops, priests and deacons.

Beg pardon, but -- 107AD is the second century.

Just thought you'd like to know that ... since you clearly didn't.

Well, duh.

The whole REASON I referenced Ignatius is because only seven years after the turn of the century, he is referring to the Catholic Church and to bishops, priests and deacons. Obviously, these things were highly developed before midnight on December 31, 99.

NOW do you get it?
