Back in the late 1990’s I was a member of a Presbyterian Church USA in upstate New York. We were happy to move on to Virginia after the monthly PCUSA magazine recommended “Pulp Fiction” because Bruce Willis road a Motorcycle named “Grace”. They thought it referred to God’s Grace instead of an old girl friend the character used to ride hard and put up wet.

What got me in the most trouble with the “Christian Ed” leader was telling my Sunday School class that the Bible was really the Word of God, Jesus was real, and you can ask Him to help you with anything in your life.

Anything teaching that got anywhere near having a personal relationship with Jesus, and anything that supported God’s authority over his creation did not sit well with her or anyone else in the PCUSA “church”.

I fear the Roman Catholic Church under the leadership of Pope Francis and progressive clergy will submit to Islam.


If he lived long enough, he would.

I wouldn't normally post something like this out of respect for the Creator. But in this case I doubt He would mind.

How is this going to work with the Presbyterian Church’s embracing of gays, lesbians and encouraging them to take positions as ministers, deacons etc.?

Typical liberals ... now they will have to choose. The moose limbs will insist.

Well, when so called priests don’t even know what’s in their Bibles they can be easily led down the wrong path.

I’m sure glad I’m born again and independent of any church affiliation.

It’s amazing that in the Koran, Jesus was explained to have a virgin birth and lived a perfect life... but he lived after the Crux and did not rise from the dead. People follow Mohhamed who was the ultimate sinner.....Give it up to satan.

I used to tell people “I’m not a member of any organized religion. I’m a Presbyterian.”

That’s not a Presbyterian Church and a Christian congregation. That’s a Mosque and a new flock of muslim converts.

A severely declining denomination declining further. Allah is a fake god invented by that dead guy buried out there in the desert.

trouble with the “Christian Ed” leader

I've seen her kind too often for my liking.

So do the old mainline ‘Christian’ denominations.
