It's absolutely despicable they still protect them. At this stage they might be as corrupt as they were at the Reformation time period, it's that far gone

Easy Abby, your getting a tad excited before they can even answer the question.

There is no slow mode on me, it's all full speed ahead

We should not ever be afraid to call out corrupt authorities, especially when they are supposed to be spiritually guiding us

ah well. They are done. As are most people when they have to justify the actions of the Catholic management.

Defending a sick, decaying, and dying order

That's Catholics unfortuantely

a bit dramatic.

But each person chooses who they follow and they defend who they follow.

Dramatic? I certainly am not afraid to make bold dictations in favor of my beliefs

I think I'ma light another candle next week

I kinda like the candles

I mean, you can get candles yourself < < nobody stopping you from lighting your own candles if you like them.

Yeah but the basilica is beautiful

It's also the oldest one in Mississippi

Did you get baptized? If so read 1 corinthians 11:17-34.

Read Proverbs and ecclesiastes

Yes, taking the lord's supper does not save, not is baptism required to be saved. Acceptance of Christ is all that is needed. Baptism is prescribed in the Bible but that comes after salvation and is an outwardly profession of your faith to your chruch.

We are saved by grace through faith.
In other words, we are saved by the grace of God, though our faith in Jesus.

Pray to Him, ask for help and He will guide you. Don't think He has abandoned you

Can some of the great people send me your love and prayers? i haven't been feeling really well recently

If you are white you would probably/mostly likely be an illiterate peasant

It’s not wrong to call out the Catholic Church for the sex crimes, but they also get the worst of it from the media. The stats for abuse in the public school system are much higher, and also the autonomous churchs like southern Baptist have a huge problem with it. Their autonomy makes it harder to pin down than the bigger system that is the Catholic Church.

“We have no choice left to us but to submit to absolute slavery and despotism, or as freemen to stand in our own defense and endeavor a noble resistance. Matters are at last brought to this deplorable extremity. Every reasonable method of reconciliation has been tried in vain.” - Rev. David Jones, July 20 1775

A great quote from a sermon during the rise of the American Revolution.

Guys

Come on

You have the luxury of a laptop or a phone, you have the ability to talk freely, you have the TIME to talk freely. Nobody it going to enslave you, those brave men who fought during the American Revolution, could be caught, hanged, burned, disowned, and much more. These people actually had it rough, they couldn't talk freely, they were pretty much actually slaves, being subject to the quartering acts (having your house taken from you) they were subject to unfree speech, they were subject to heavy taxes and unfair treatment. You guys need to think about the fact that you have the luxury of technology. Think about the Amish for a moment. They work 12 hours a day in the fields, they are punished harshly, and they have no luxuries, but you don't see them openly complaining about it. And if Biden is going to make the US a slaveryship, then so be it. Complaining only makes things worse, @Benjamin.

ok, I stand corrected. Still, I think there are far more righteous people than that, even in NOVA where I live. And yes, our country is perhaps too far gone for us, but not for God. Nothing ever is for him. If we can get our country praying again, get our fellow country-men to start living for Him again, God can, and I believe will redeem us.

I can't lie, I think any hope we have is bleek, but its something

as long as there is a chance, I don't think its right for us to give up.

I would leave this, brother

leave what?

Mercy's opinions on God

He doesn't want to be convinced

He told me

yes. I have also taken communion, but I am struggling to understand it all right not.

none of us do <:KEK:795742276549607456> we get stuck in our ways, tend to think we are right about everything, if if we know we may not be.
