"I'm just a plain old bible believer."
Well, then you are the priest of your own private church, as you are interpreting for yourself, with no input from any organized religion, what the meaning of biblical passages are. So, you have set yourself up as your own private church, a church of one (two, if you include your husband), where you are Pope, Bishop, priest, layman(woman), and parishioner, all at the same time, preaching to yourself what you do or do not want to believe, and interpreting the Bible as you choose, at whim, from day to day. Interesting concept. The Church of Marajade. No parishioners welcome, a UniChurch. Those 20,000 plus Protestant churches just increased by one, the Private Church of One.
I guess you missed the part where I quoted scripture in the Book of Peter?
I feel like John the Baptist. Someone crying out in the desert. Its not my Church, its Christ's Church.
