I agree and disagree with every preacher and denomenation at some point...that's why I am a non-denomenational Christian. I believe in the apostle's creed and every Christian should belive that Catholic, Protestant or other. If one believes the creed and actually has accepted Christ as their saviour, then in my book it's all good. We may be in error on minor details, but we're heaven bound and in the book of Life and in the end that is all that will matter. I think a lot of Catholics and 'crazy' protestant denominations are going to be in Heaven with us and realize how much silly extra stuff they did. Man made traditions taking the place of what God said to do. A lot of times man made traditions that folks are judged by when God had no vested interest in how we handled the issue. Sometimes we make things hard on ourselves. I agree with a lot of what Hagee has to say, not all of it. McCain isn't exactly a flip-flopper about accepting the endorsement, he is just clarifing that there are differences here and there. I do wish that our president would stick to his guns though, if you are a Christian and get called a Homophobe, accept it, show the scripture and tell why the lifestyle is wrong. If you know the history of the Catholic church, warts and all, say it loud! Don't back down! |

Well, American kids would probably choose Sponge Bob or something. It's been said here before that now days kids are not exposed to Jesus and the gospel the way they were in the old days. A quick break down of why:1. Women's Lib- women get to work now just like men at the expense of being good mothers to their kids. On this same level it now takes two incomes to provide what the man's single income used to provide. You can throw the income tax in here too if you like. 2.Removal of God from regular school- there is no real teaching of God's word in school and all kids are compelled to attend. If the parents can't afford Christian school or Home schooling the kids will be here. 3. Lesiure time/technology- I'm guilty. I don't have kids yet, but it is easier to turn on the TV or play a videogame during one's downtime than it is to read. Plus, since we all work so much harder during the week it is far more tempting to sleep in than to go to church. Basically that means kids don't learn about Jesus from parents, school, or through church attendance, so where else can they learn? |

I'll try again on this because my last comment proved to be too risque. Let's pretend I know a wolf. He is a friendly wolf who wants to please God. Wolves like meat, it's only natural, and for most God permits wolves to eat meat but I say to serve God best, this wolf can not have meat now or ever. This is a very God-fearing wolf and he takes the vow. Since he has made a vow it is perfectly safe for me to let him take care of the sheep now. In fact I put him in a position of power over very young sheep who will do whatever he asks them to do. Then when the inevitible happens I don't get real help for the wolf, but instead send him to another farm to take care of other young sheep, because I'm sure the wolf has learned his lesson and will never do it again. The spirit may be willing, but the flesh is weak. I do pray for priests and hope they learn that they best serve God by preaching the gospel. Being a happily married man that leads a good life is much more honoring than a forced celebacy that is doomed for failure. |
