"But are you part of "The Church"? To most of them there is a big difference and they don't even accept your definition of the true church."

Unfortunately I've seen and heard enough to know exactly what you are talking about.However,in the end we are going to see for ouselves who is free and who has the comfort of God and who hasn't.Anyone who is bluffing is going to be found out.

I know where I stand and what I stand on.

As I've said...I first read the bible as an atheist and from what I've seen of religion in general I'm actually thankfull I had no church upbringing.

It was enough that I came out of the cult of the world with the ton of baggage that needed (and still needs) getting rid of let alone another ton of baggage from sitting in church thinking I already believe and know the truth.

Amazing the things you see and hear in church when you first come as an outsider.

God bless all
