catholic - With a small 'c', it refers to the whole of the Gospel of Christ and the ways of living it out, among Christ's followers of all times, places, races, sexes, social classes and situations of life.
I guess you were right... :p
You are right... I think anyway... I dont think luther was all right... or catholicism all wrong... I know some wonderful catholics... loving people that live love every day.... and I know some lutherans, methodists, and many others that do the same!! I dont think anyone has it all right...
I was just thinking about this a little while ago... What if ( for the sake of the discussion ) god was trying to move the church in a new direction because we have gotten off the the path... The minute someone says something that does jive with the masses people flip out... I wonder how luther...
Sorry Pattimax... I am not following you... lol
I dont think accurate perception and Documented evidence are the same either... lol
I think we are not on the same page... lol...
But... as always I am tired... been a long week... :)
Peace
Umm... I guess I am not really following the logic here... if Matthew 24 was for the weak ones... why was it ( according to both the book of Mark and Matthew ) only spoken to the disciples??
It seems to me that the disciples here wanted some more details about the coming trials and they asked...
NP!!
And I will figure the quote thing out sometime...hehe
Oh, Faithfulservant...
You never answered the question that this entire thread was about... :p
I am just kiddin!! :) Really!!

Sorry... being new here... I am not sure how to do the cool multi quote thing so... I have to do it this way :)
You claim to have been a man of God so tell me Dont you dont watch the news?? You are telling me you dont see the moral decline of a country slowly and surely removing God from its...

Since this has gotten personal enough for you to accuse me of being a liar and a wolf in sheeps clothing... May I ask a personal question??
How long have you been a christian??
Where did you study theology??
Peace & Love
Hello FS,
I did not attempt to shut you up... had I wanted to shut you up I would not have responded to your post...
It also does not matter when I started posting here... I read your post in the context of the thread... and I have read many of your older posts before I posted my response...
I am sorry... if this is maybe a little curt... but...
How do you know?? Are you presuming to speak for god??
If anyone is laughing it should be all of us at ourselves... or perhaps we should be crying... for having arguments on the theological and spiritual impact of abbreviating words...
I would also add that I think contextually Matthew 24 and/or Mark 13 are not exhortations on how christians ought to live their daily lives... IMHO :)
It appears that these versus are relating to a specific group of followers... as it was spoken only to the disciples... and it also appears to...
I think Gandhi was an incredible communicator... He could use a little humor to really drive the point he was trying to make...
I think he said that with a humorous tone... but I think he was very serious...
The West could really use to be more civilized... :) ok... ALOT more civilized...
Are you asking me to label someone a heretic?? lol... :p
No thanx... I will pass... I will leave the judging up to the judge...
But if you think he is a heretic then he is welcome to the club as well...
You may jon as well FS... There is enough Grace for everyone... :)
Peace & Love
Well... I have been called worse... :p
But it goes along nicely with my "Heretic" title... But I figure I am in pretty good company... Luther, Wesley, and Jesus even... :)
Peace & Love
