Re: Unity and Politics
TK, I get keeping the peace with things that don't matter and I agree with it. (even though stirring the pot is one of my favorate pass-times).

Is the RCC the Kingdom? The short answer is no according to John 18:36 "Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, then My servants would fight so that I might not be delivered to the Jews. But now My kingdom is not from here. " No man-made institution is the ...

He basically thanked W for his "Christian" leadership and hoped God would give O a discerning...
