Does not open sin and the desire to remove God from their platform count as a “threat to the unity of the church”????

Leave it to a RAT to try to coerce and force the church to do something sacrilegious.

Hey demorat, God knows what you are doing.

“..over one issue.”

The Democrat Party considers the breaking all 10 Commandments to be one issue.

So...I can force other groups to lose a tax-exempt statues by insisting they accommodate me in practices in direct contradiction to their tenets?

If I report my local "Friends of the Library" for refusing to burn Leftist books, I can have their tax-exempt status revoked?

Democrats have no problem with the Catholic Church covering up hundreds of thousands of kids sexually abused and raped by unpunished priests for 50+ years. But the church might deny them communion so now it’s holy war.

If the Congressional Black Caucus refuses to admit me because I'm not black and not a congressman, can we have their license to operate removed by the government?

If Jao Bai-Din and Nanzi Pelosi publicly swear allegiance to Satan, the IRS determines whether or not they're Catholic?

It's the very first sentence of the First Amendment, morons. You may want to re-read it.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof

Hitler and the 2021 Dems demand full obedience and meek loyalty or else.

The Pope, Bishops, priests and their flock have to realize that. It already is “political” and they can’t simply shiver with fear, beg for mercy and speak with a trembling light voice and try to appease the Left-—it has to be total surrender.

Next Two “married” homosexual priests in front giving their homilies. Others being sent to jail overnight for delaying assisted suicide approval. and still others in trouble for speaking out meekly against euthanasia of old people who cost too much to the socialist health system.

In a fascist state the churches only exist as tools of the state. Play along, follow orders, get benefits and privileges. Otherwise your church is over and we're pretty interested in investigating you for lots of things, many many things...

Clearly the dems have recognized the fascist utopia they've brought us and are blazing ahead with it.

We must study the Scripture

The church can neither ban nor allow communion with Christ. Any church that does so seeks to "control" its parishioners. I am not catholic, but studies ministry for years and as such I do understand the truth of the following verse, as will everyone who reads it. Taking communion is upon the heads of every single person who does so. Clearly if you are in any active sin at all, taking the body and blood of Christ is an egregious matter. So Biden, or anyone else who takes the blood of Christ in an unworthy manor is guilty. Banning him by the church will not prevent him taking the blood. He could go anywhere it is freely offered and take it.



The Christian church passes the loaf and cup through its congregation and one can partake. It can be taken in anyone. Worthy or not. But be careful of this thing which is very serious. It is a matter of the heart. And God knows the heart.
So just because a priest or anyone else offers that blood doesn't absolve anyone of their responsibility of the heart. It is a personal thing and not a thing to be controlled by another. Not a priest nor anyone else. But be sure that personal decision is a good one. Otherwise you are guilty of the Blood of Christ.

The verse: 1 Cor. 11:26-29, “For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until He comes. 27 Therefore whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner, shall be guilty of the body and the blood of the Lord. 28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread and drink of the cup. 29 For he who eats and drinks, eats and drinks judgment to himself, if he does not judge the body rightly.”

Note that Paul says here....,"let a man examine himself" not let anyone else do so. No man is to examine another in relation to the blood of Christ.
So they can allow or deny all they wish, Just because a Priest allows a sinner communion it doesn't mean they are Not Guilty. Indeed they are justly guilty of the blood of Christ.
Biden has expanded abortion. He has not changed his mind. Let him examine himself to see if he is worthy of the blood of Christ. I will not say, but it is indeed obvious. He is living in sin and has not changed. If I were in his shoes, I would be very, very careful of my actions. He is old and nearing the judgment.

"It is appointed man once to die, and then the judgment".
Examine the scriptures in both English and Greek. So all these reports are just window dressing for the media. What counts is God.
He is the final solution. Please look at the last part of this scripture. He will be bring judgment to himself. No one will bring judgment to him. The church code doesn't matter one iota in this case. ds

There is NO WAY IN HELL they will follow through with this

Don't be so sure. There was no way in hell a lot of this crap would ever happen, and they found a way in hell to make it happen.

There will be a lawsuit to force the Church to give Communion to one of these open dissenters, there will be a judge to order it, and there will be police or even military to enforce it.

“If they’re going to politically weaponize religion by ‘rebuking’ Democrats who support women’s reproductive choice, then a ‘rebuke’ of their tax-exempt status may be in order,” wrote Rep. Jared Huffman, D-Calif., in a Twitter post lashing out at Catholic bishops.

_____________________________________________________

Do this to any religious organization that espouses Left-wing ideas! Punish those denominations/faiths for “weaponizing religion” too. Let’s see how the Left likes it then.

So the Democrats hate both the scriptures and the First Amendment.

Got it.
