I presume you are a minister?

You are very kind. I am what Churchmates have called a "logical evangelist." I only minister in a non-professional manner when the opportunity presents itself.

I was raised Episcopalian, educated Roman Catholic, and have worshipped with Lutherans, Assemblies of God, Independent Charismatic, Independent non-Charismatic, Baptist, Methodist, Presbyterian, Messianic Jewish, and probably some other flavors of Christian that I can't remember. Each was very proud of its "distinctives" which caused me to study them. I have decided two things:

1) the things which divide us are much smaller than the things which unite us and
2) our pride makes it seem like the reverse.

Shalom.

Well, your knowledge of the Gospel Truth is refreshing and it does lend a sense of peace to me knowing there are people like you that are willing to take the time and pass that to the rest of us. Your decision on 2 things is dead on correct IMO.

Thanks and I look forward to reading your posts on FR.
