James - I just read your post after confessing to a friend here
that the hardest thing I deal with is the pain of all the
broken relationships I have had as a result of the "disunity"
of the church. People just keep buying religion and
sacrificing friends and truth to get there. My last post to
Emile is a knee jerk reaction to some degree to this pain but
I will leave it sit as is because I cannot justify anything
less when I hear lofty claims to exclusive authority under
Christ. The "holy of holies" is not behind a curtain within
any particular building or denomination. I actually attended
a church before leaving Canada where the minister
(perhaps for my "benefit")
preached that God had so ordained the visible
church that He "would not" speak outside of it in a home
church. Tell that to the persecuted and suffering Christians
in places like China. What a stuffed shirt that man has
become. What a deaf liar he is. What a lovely little religion
he builds. Another church where Christ FROM OUTSIDE knocks
on the door offering to "sup with" anyone who can hear His voice.
I share your desire to see brothers in Christ stand together
in agreement but until the pride goes - the church will be a
house divided against itself. "Oh Jerusalem"

Joh 11:35 Jesus wept.

Love to you James

In His name I pray.
