And this bought-and-paid-for pope is a scumbag.

Didn’t he say those who make walls or live behind walls are criminals or something like that? Geez, isn’t the vatican surrounded by a giant wall?

They are talking about the decline in the denominations that have been taken over by homosexuals. This is basically all the phony mainline Christians being gathered up and burned like weeds, as the Bible puts it.

Bible-believing Christians who remain true to Christ are growing, although looking at persecution and having to go underground if the Democrats take power.

I heard this mentioned in the Bible as “The great falling away”.

My church wanted $350 to dissolve my marriage.

But your divorce lawyer worked for free, right?

Anecdotally, I see a lot of people returning to the faith in “trad” circles, just not through Churchianity or SJW converged denominations. Mostly Ortho. Also, stop importing 3rd world non-Christians.

"Then what's the point of evangelism?"

Because we are tools God uses to effectuate his will. Evangelism sanctifies the save as well as regenerates the lost. God is very efficient.

"He wants everyone, and that is in the Word."

If he wanted everyone then everyone would be saved. God is sovereign. God chooses you, you don't chose God.

"If what you say there is true, then free will does not exist."

We are free to do whatever we want to do but not what we ought to do.

God has stated His plans for this, and it's not what was stated.

John 6:66

“After this many of his disciples drew back and no longer went about with him.”
