The Presbys have “The Ten Suggestions” like the Episcos, right?
“Shedding unwanted members.”
Yea,like the few there that actually believed the Gospel.
What’s left is a seething mass of homos and their enablers.
>>The Presbys have The Ten Suggestions like the Episcos, right?
Just the PCUSA “Presbys”. The orthodox Presbyterians of the PCA, EPC, and OPC are doing just fine with the Commandments.
PCUSA denies the Word of God, and is in denial of its own demise.
why would anyone waste their time belonging to a ‘church’ that is so clearly off the rails of Christian faith
especially when there are dozens of other churches available, both in and outside the Calvinist tradition, that still try to preach a genuinely Christian message
It’s like the Catholic church that my mother attends - you get the feeling that everyone is welcome except Catholics.
The place has a nice county club atmosphere,and no one ever says anything that will make you uncomfortable.They can settle right in and be comfortable with their sin.
In other news the Titanic has shed many unwanted decks, and the new swimming facilities are far more extensive. Also it’s sinking more slowly than it was earlier this evening.
Yup you got it. And it seems pcusa is embracing as many sins ( instead of sinners) as it can. A real loser of a church and one Calvin would have condemned outright.
To paraphrase Shakespeare, the fewer the members, the greater the glory each will share.
this reminds me of the old joke about the angry Episcopalian bishop that denounced Mel Gibson’s “The Passion of the Christ” for being blatantly pro-Christian.
;)
Is Parsons auditioning for Press Secretary at the State Department.
PCUSA. Gentle octogenarians in sweaters and polyester pants, who have never uttered or heard the words doctrine, wrath or propitiation.
Did this guy work for the Iraqi misinformation ministry some years back?
Membership declines continue, but on a whole the denomination is settling into the new thing God is creating.
Yeah right.. It is not something God is creating but something man is creating.
Remember, marriage on earth is to reflect our understanding of Gods marriage to the Church. God is the groom and, His bride, is the Church.
The Kingdom of God, only occurs with both, God and the Church.
It doesn’t occur, one, without the other.
Two men coming together in a marriage suggests that God will be with Himself and doesnt need the church.
Two women coming together in a marriage implies that the church only needs the church and doesnt need God.
Since marriage is such a powerful symbol from heaven, it is no wonder that Satan works so hard to distort this symbol on earth.
Not once in Scripture, does the man symbolize the church, nor does the woman ever symbolize God.
Does "vibrant" ever mean anything other than "full of leftist idiots"?
I bet there aren't even a third that many in the pews on Sunday.
