To: Mrs. Don-o
The Church has three major divisions: The Church Militant (on Earth) The Church Suffering (in Purgatory) The Church Triumphant (in Heaven)

With no New Testament support for this "division" of the church.....not to mention none for purgatory either.

The church is the body of believers....the ekklesia. Paul writes a good deal about it and not once does he break it down as Rome does.

Why?

SCRIPTURE DOES NOT CHANGE.....Roman Catholic "tradition" has, does and will change.
