My definition is 'the heart'.
I was given the "left boot of fellowship" because I dared to share some materials (posted in this thread by someone else)
with a fellow member. The pastor wanted me removed because he felt that I "didn't share his vision or direction". I said, "Praise God! That is 100% TRUE!"
My definition is 'the heart'.
Beep. Wrong answer. "Spiritual" sounding, but false. Like the devil, an entirely spiritual entity.
Many Americans are practical unitarians, unable to see collective entities, especially the God-ordained Oath-confirmed, representatively-structured entities of church, family, nation. It's a long story, and at this point, I'd be trying to describe a Rembrandt to a blind man. Good starting point to consider, though: the God of the Bible, the Trinity, is plural and well as singular. God Himself is the Ultimate Community. The idol of the statists is the "Great Community/Society," defined in political terms.
