"...a feminized, feel-good emotion rather than a supernatural act of payment for sin."

There's certainly a lot of that going around,amongst much of christendom.

I've posted before that simply getting the FACT of your salvation through Jesus Christ to 'sink in' (which is THE work of God!) is enough to make the entire universe explode in your face!

"These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God." (1 John 5:13)

The above verse seems to be saying you need to KNOW you are saved in order to do the very work of God!

Going to a church that doesn't even know wether they are saved and/or has little more than "a feminized, feel-good emotion" opinion of salvation is more like visiting an orphanage than a family gathering.

Children preening themselves in order to attract favour from a prospective parent,which is beyond sad.

Welcome home...to a place where you might end up being accepted?
