I will agree with your last statement, but you guys aren’t the only ones who deal with it. I see some very nasty “anti” protestant stuff coming from “your” end too and, I don’t think it helps anyone, frankly.
I think we should be able to “reason together” as the Lord tells us to do; and for whatever it’s worth, I think if we would tighten ourselves together a little bit on the things we CAN agree on, we’d be much, much stronger. I know there are some serious issues among us but we do not disagree on Christ’s divinity, His role in salvation, the Trinity, and so much more....
Islam is growing by leaps and bounds and there is no discourse there - no freedom - nothing.
Anyway, just so you know. I love my Catholic brothers and sisters in Christ. They are dear to me and do so much good and are so strong in so many ways and are out there fighting the good fight.
I wish we were perfect . . . but we aren’t, just forgiven, as the bumper sticker says.
