I know you believe you are guided by the Holy Spirit which makes mounting an argument a rather unpleasant and, likely, unworkable task.
So, brother..I will just say I love you and I pray the Holy Spirit does guide you to the Church Jesus established.
God Bless you
I told you but a small part of it. I know the power of prayer and the mercy of GOD. Many other events have happened and GOD has been faithful to answer and be there. Christ is not RC, Baptist, Methodist, or any other Christian Church Sect. He is the Head of the Church and His followers from all walks all flocks who call on His name and believe are his Church, His Brothers, His Sister, and the membership.
Like I said it's a shame an argument as old as Christ time on earth of the jealousy of who are the chosen the greatest in Heaven still exist. A Church? What constitutes a church? Where two or more are gathered in His name there Christ is also.
I am familiar somewhat with the Roman Catholic Church. My cousin is a Priest and Vicar General in a major Southeastern U.S. City. About half my dads family is RC. We agree on much and not one second is wasted on trying to convert one to another's church. None of us see it as being an issue as we serve the same Lord and Savior. If the Roman Catholic Church is attacked by heretics who wish to say for example the the Pope is evil and RC's are going to hell I will take them on and call their hand. I'll send you the proof of such :>} I also know some Southern Baptist who think only SB's will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. It's sad. The churches should live and work together. But remember this even the chosen of Christ except at specific times mentioned in the Bible were not of one accord. No indeed they had major differences. They as well became entangled to the legalism's of their day.
I consider myself a fortunate person. Had I not listened to the callings given me? My life and many others lives involved in it would have not had the positive change that happened. I would most likely not be posting this. GOD works through all churches and all miniseries. I can give you many examples but one that comes to mind is a woman named Joni Erickson Tada. If you have never heard of her read the book Joni. It is a real eye opener. She is a very devout follower of the Lord and her ministry reaches many persons the churches simply can not. Many Flocks brother but only one Shepherd who guides us all.
GOD Bless You too.
