What would you have the Church do?

Preach the Gospel.

Mark 16:15 And he said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature."

Obviously your parishoners would have to understand what the gospel is, but other churches have done a pretty good job of teaching their members.

What should the Church of Jesus Christ do when the arrogance and hubris and pride of mankind leads so many of them into Satanic embrace?

We keep trying to preach the gospel to you. We pray for the lost. My local Church has a good outreach to RC's and apprx 25% of our membership are former RC's who have been saved. It really is not a complicated process, if they have open hearts we read Scripture together.

The Church has done such a poor job when 25% of its members have renounced the Church of Christ. We have so many former Catholics who have embraced the religion of the now, the religion of the slick, the glib and the opportune. The religion of the preacher upon the pulpit right now.

I’m sort of happy that they didn’t land further from the target than they did, but, it is a judgement upon us that the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church of Jesus Christ was unable to keep our members from slipping away and joining your church. I am ashamed.

Reading a good church history when they were probably misinformed might be a blessing to many of them..
