Rich Maffeo on Nostr: An insanity – I think that word accurately describes it – a supernatural, blind ...
An insanity – I think that word accurately describes it – a supernatural, blind insanity has invaded and is permeating the Church, regardless of its label, whether Catholic or Protestant.
I really am distressed about it. And because of it, I must say what I am about to say, even though I know I will probably offend some of you. But I just cannot be silent. To defend what is happening in the churches – whether Catholic or Protestant – and to defend what is happening among church clergy – whatever their status or rank – to defend the blasphemous evil that slithers throughout the churches, regardless of their name – to defend such evil is nothing less than pagan superstition.
And in light of the blinding evidence to the contrary, to insist that any church is the ‘true’ church becomes laughable were it not so open to ridicule.
Saint Paul tells us in his letter to the church at Corinth (1 Corinthians 10:1-12) that the things written in the Old Testament about the various deadly invasions and bloody exiles He inflicted on His chosen nation of Israel – their history ought to open the eyes of everyone in the pew and in the pulpit today. Listen! God is not One to be mocked. And He is not partial to ANY church – Catholic or Protestant.
If it’s been a while since you’ve read Jesus’ warnings to each of the seven churches in Revelation chapters 2 and 3, you might take a few minutes to refamiliarize yourself with those warnings. You’ll quickly see that what God REQUIRES of every church and of every Christian is holiness.
HOLINESS.
