The RCC has totally corrupted what the Greek word ekklesia really means. The concept they promote didn’t even exist in the apostles lives.

Frankly, I could do with a little less ekklesia, if it means watering down the Catholic faith and Catholic faith practices, in the West, any more than they already have been. Nearly unrecognizable.

Absolutely dead on the mark. Great post. Tragic, but great post.

I believe we both need to learn to spell, “ecclesiae”, before we assert the Greek meaning of the word. :)

Yes.. they had no idea of ‘Church.’

If it were today, Paul would be addressing his letters to the “Church on CynicalBear’s Neighborhood.”

And it would be delivered of course.
