The sad thing on the religion forum sidebar today is Catholics versus Protestants and Protestants versus Catholics.

I understand the pope prayed for or spoke about Christian Unity the other day.

Looks like we’ve got a long way to go.

Neither the Pope or John MacArthur are heretics. They are Christians who approach the faith from entirely different directions. As the persecution reaches our shores, and as we get refined to Gideon’s army, perhaps we’ll understand those things we hold in common.

“Neither the Pope or John MacArthur are heretics.”

This I do not know, nor do I need to know.

What I know is love. The love I have for you and all my sin-filled brethren. They include my priest, my bishop, my pope and my neighbor. (And myself, because we need to love ourselves, yes?)

“As the persecution reaches our shores, and as we get refined to Gideon’s army, perhaps we’ll understand those things we hold in common.”

If that commonality is the love of God, we will prevail.
