An excellent comparison to how Rome defines "Church" is found in statements like "The White House issued out new executive orders..." Here "White House" is used in a similar way to how Rome says "Church". We all know that when the press says "The White House" it is similar to a Catholic saying "The Church" we all know that it ultimately resolves to the guy sitting in the Oval Office (or in today's regime, to wherever George Soros happens to be), and we also know that these singular men didn't dream up this on their own, but the proclamations evolve organically under the command and ideology of the President/hedge fund manager/Pope.

Great insight.

I think when the definition of "Church" is understood in those contexts, the vast difference in the religion of Roman Catholicism compared to true Christianity can be seen, and thus reduce the animosity that exists between us.

You can call yourselves Christians, just like the Mormons and the unredeemed within the American Religion do, for it is a deconstructed label that says "I'm not a Muslim, Pagan or Hindu", but please understand that the true Church of Jesus Christ is very different than the Church of Roman Catholicism and trying to deceive by rewriting the definition of "Church" or using it deliberately in a deceptive manner is only going to continue the frustration.

I for one, truly appreciate your (annalex) tireless efforts to help clarify the profound distinctions between the cult of Rome and true Christianity. I have learned plenty from these discussions, and I no longer feel that I am dealing with the Apostate, rather it is more like talking shop with my Muslim friends where I know that ecumenism between the two religions is impossible and we can get along for as long as they don't try to cut off my head.

lolol. Great conclusions. Worth pinging to a few FRiends.

Not surprisingly the entire English language has to be reordered to make the Roman doctrines palatable to the masses.
Brother doesn't mean brother, sin doesn't mean sin and he means she. (sigh...)
