They hate it when they can't peg you into a certain slot.
Because they know what false doctrine has been planted in every one of them and how to work it.
Satan is said to be like a Lion, roaming to and fro across the earth looking for who he can devour....
Christ talks about a remnant and will He find faith on the earth when He returns.
And people think this huge worldly, political, religious system with millions obedient to her, based in Rome is the TRUTH?
I don't think anyone has any common sense anymore, or the ability to think for themselves. Its sad, and scary.
Strange coming from someone who calls the doctrine of the deity of Christ a "doctrine of devils". What do you care what Christ says? He's just a man, no greater than you, right?
-A8
In your view, the deity of Christ is a "doctrine of devils" (cf. #820), and Jesus is not the Christ (cf. #1281).
"He who is not with me is against me, and he who does not gather with me scatters" (Matt 12:30)
So, since you are not on Christ's side, then from Matthew 12:30 it logically follows that you are serving that "lion" you mention above.
-A8
For how shall we fill people with blind faith in the correctness of a doctrine, if we ourselves spread uncertainty and doubt by constant changes in its outward structure?
...Here, too, we can learn by the example of the Catholic Church. Though its doctrinal edifice, and in part quite superfluously, comes into collision with exact science and research, it is none the less unwilling to sacrifice so much as one little syllable of its dogmas... it is only such dogmas which lend to the whole body the character of a faith.
-Adolf Hitler (Mein Kampf)
Although Hitler did not practice religion in a churchly sense, he certainly believed in the Bible's God. Raised as Catholic he went to a monastery school and, interestingly, walked everyday past a stone arch which was carved the monastery's coat of arms which included a swastika. As a young boy, Hitler's most ardent goal was to become a priest. Much of his philosophy came from the Bible, and more influentially, from the Christian Social movement. (The German Christian Social movement, remarkably, resembles the Christian Right movement in America today.) Many have questioned Hitler's stand on Christianity. Although he fought against certain Catholic priests who opposed him for political reasons, his belief in God and country never left him. Many Christians throughout history have opposed Christian priests for various reasons; this does not necessarily make one against one's own Christian beliefs. Nor did the Vatican's Pope & bishops ever disown him; in fact they blessed him! As evidence to his claimed Christianity, he said:
"My feelings as a Christian points me to my Lord and Savior as a fighter. It points me to the man who once in loneliness, surrounded by a few followers, recognized these Jews for what they were and summoned men to fight against them and who, God's truth! was greatest not as a sufferer but as a fighter. In boundless love as a Christian and as a man I read through the passage which tells us how the Lord at last rose in His might and seized the scourge to drive out of the Temple the brood of vipers and adders. How terrific was His fight for the world against the Jewish poison. To-day, after two thousand years, with deepest emotion I recognize more profoundly than ever before the fact that it was for this that He had to shed His blood upon the Cross. As a Christian I have no duty to allow myself to be cheated, but I have the duty to be a fighter for truth and justice... And if there is anything which could demonstrate that we are acting rightly it is the distress that daily grows. For as a Christian I have also a duty to my own people.
