Just a little update of my post of 29 May. I was called back down to my old church yesterday to give evidence , being the ex-pres. for several years. It seems about a month ago the National Church wanted the pastor to sign over the property to the NC. This property at one time had a sale offer of $1...

Hola: In the news today is the story of the murder of the infamous abortionist, George Tiller. As much of a shock as the murder was the fact he was a member in good standing of a Lutheran Church, where he was slain Doesn't surprise me in the least. This is an ELCA Lutheran church. To quote Wiki:"The...

The Catholics here are considerately more conservative than what you would find in the U.S. They've avoided the Liberation Theology that hit the rest of Latin America years ago. They end up being quite Christ centered and the sermons are what I expect from the Lutherans and rarely hear. I was part o...

A little about my wife. She is not a partiularly devout Catholic. She goes to mass every once in a while. Her attitude is " I'm a Panamanian and it wouldn't be right if I wasn't Catholic."

You must see the RCC as equivalent to the state of Israel/Judah of the Old Testament? Christianity is the succesor to Judaism , Judaism with the Messiah. So yes So the...

But, certainly it must at least cause you to think twice about whether God would have appointed these men to succeed His apostles and to establish and sustain His one true church and to establish and determine doctrine until now. Perhaps , but I consider God to be active in history. I would compare...

Hola Steve: Sorry if I seemed vehement. However, it is hard to read the history of the church, its adulterous popes, its inhuman inquisitions, its broken oaths (e.g., to Jan Hus), its pompous and blasphemous claims, its exploitation of the poor (e.g., selling indulgences), and all of its other atroc...
