I found one a few blocks from home. Great Viccar and great parishioners. Great gatherings. Lots of beer and food. Even "Blessing of the Pets" each year.

Last week we were informed he was being replaced by the archdiocese.

Everyone is older democrats without a fellowship,(old school Sam Nunn Democrats) empty nesters, or conservatives. IOW, The Expendables. I suspect the archdiocese will sell the church. They did announce an interim Viccar until future decisions are finalized.

Titus 3:10 in KJV reads A man that is an heretick after the first and second admonition reject;

The Greek word for heretic is hairetikos, which means “a follower of false doctrine.”

The wrong will twist the scriptures and use translations that justify their wrongness. To translate hairetikos as “divisive” expands the intent of this verse.

.especially given that the source is Christian Post.

What is your objection to the Christian Post? Serious question, as I am considering attending an event they are sponsoring in October.

he called one of the deacons to go with him. There she was in her night clothes so her husband conveniently could find Dad there.

Just like Joseph and Potiphar's wife! This is why everyone on Billy Graham's team had a policy of never being alone with a woman, even in an elevator.

The church of Israel killed the Christ.

My understanding is that the death sentence was pronounced by the pagan Roman governor of Judea, Pontius Pilate, and not Jesus' faithful disciples of Israel. The Judeans who called for the execution of Jesus were not His "church"; they were unbelievers. And Israel was a separate kingdom from Judea.

Yes. That is one never-to-be-ignored policy they teach (or used to, at least) in Bible colleges and seminaries.

My problem with the Christian Post is that they’ve tended to be more liberal than Christian.

It’s probably an attempt to honor their mission to be non-denominational. The head guy is a Baptist and former head of a seminary. Oh, well.
