Awful !
.
Why do they even pretend to be a church of Jesus Christ anymore?
Horrible news. Disgusting.
Israel must come to terms with the reality that changing demographics and a woeful ignorance of history is resulting in declining support both in the United States and the EU. Obama’s thinly disguised hostile policies toward Israel are not occurring in a political vacuum.

That must be it.
Soon Presby USA will find in the end they divested themselves of Christainity

So they won’t be buying any Sodastream products? Their loss.
Henceforth they should be treated as muslims by everyone. Every last one of them. If they believe in God, they are needing to leave.
If this was a real Christian church, their money would be going into mission fields instead of the stock market...
