We all ( I guess ) believe the Apostles, Nicene and Athanasian Creeds. We all believe the catholic ( or Catholic ) church referred to in each of the creeds was the universal Christian church then existing. What we all have difficulty agreeing on today is which modern church most correctly follows the commission given by our Savior to St. Peter.
This last point of disagreement, however, appears irreconcilable ( much to Satan's delight, I suspect ).
This last point of disagreement, however, appears irreconcilable ( much to Satan's delight, I suspect ). I agree that Satan is pleased that we are not united. With the power of the Holy Spirit, however, nothing is irreconcilable.
Where we do agree, we need to be united. Where we disagree, we need to be respectful. There is too much evil in the world for us to be taking swords, verbal or otherwise, against each other.
God bless.
