Hi Emile, Thank you for taking the time to explain to me your definition of the Holy Church of God and it's spiritual and physical components. I must admit I did not know anything about Orthodoxy but I do agree that God meant for believers to gather together to support and to affirm and uphold their faith in Christ. Would you consider your church to be similiar to Presbyterian worship and beliefs? I also believe in Holy Communion as one of the things that God wishes us to do in honor of the Son. I was only stressing the need for Christians who let the physical things of the church overcome our need to recognize "grace" as the only way to Christ and salvation. It pains me to see so many wrapped up in following what man is teaching today in the church and to not allow the Holy Spirit to teach them by using their own efforts to study the Bible and being open minded to what God is trying to show them. I live in the "Bible belt" and have not found a church other than the Protestant, evangelical teachings of water baptism, tongues, word of knowledge preaching and rapture theorists who constantly talk about the near return of Christ. In closing I want to say that I do believe in what you are talking about but have been unable to find a church that believes as I do. Thanks, James
