Thank you so much for giving me your heartfelt opinion. I truly do appreciate it. The quote from the Pope is at the bottom of my FReeper homepage.
>>Separated for a couple reasons.<<
From now on, how about “Brothers and Sisters in Christ”?
A wonderful sentiment.
Gal. 5:25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
I think my experience is not all that different from other Christians. The longer I've walked with the Lord the more I find I'm quicker to recognize when I've hurt someone, or been out of step with my Saviour. I don't want to offend, but I don't want to deny my faith. It's a tough line when we are arguing from opposite sides on something we both consider foundational.
