Mark,

<<Why didnt he supply the answers in a fashion that would create less controversy, less hatred, and even less warfare? >>

I can't speak for God but I offer this as input.

The groups you mentioned have put their own spin on certain aspects of Scripture. However, these groups (with the possible exception of Christians Scientists who I know little of) in their doctrines stand on the same platform - ie. we are sinners saved through Christ. The differences between Lutherans, Baptists and Presberterians is simply the style of service and focus of their ministries. I personally don't agree with denominational boundaries and think they are satanic in nature dividing up people of common belief. I've observed denominations claiming superiority over others, it's wrong.

God gave us a clear roadmap. He didn't come and speak face to face with each of us because chosing Him then would require no faith. He created us as thinking, reasoning people with free choice. The facts are there and we either accept them or reject them. The controversy, hatred and war come from our sinful selfs enticed by satans temptations.

Bob
