Well, "invisible church of the elect" is an odd description of the Catholic Church, but many of your posts are quite odd too.
I'm just thankful your statement (That particular sect has used that same method for centuries although with more devasting effect in real life...) is not intended to describe the Catholic Church.
That's my real concern.

Whoops: “invisible universal church of the elect”
Just as odd as the incorrectly-quoted version I used above.

Not for someone who reads their Bible or has a passing knowledge of Augustinian teachings. I find that Romanists are usually the most ignorant of these things.

Can the "invisible church of the elect" be seen from outer space? Is that why some believe that they have been abducted by aliens?
