What I hope all who have read these exchanges over the weeks comes to realize is that "we" are not trying to convert everyone over to "our" denomination. That is because it does not matter to which congregation one chooses to go as long as there is a genuine conversion of the heart to the truth that is the Gospel of the grace of God - that we are saved by HIS grace and it is through our faith that we receive HIS gift. If that critical decision is taken care of, then the new creation in Christ can follow the leading of the Lord to where God wants him to fellowship together with others. They will work together to honor the Lord in word and deed and to grow in grace and the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

I don't know where ANY of the other non-catholic FReepers attend church and am only aware of the denominational affiliation of one for sure, and that's only hearsay from the Catholics.

It DOES NOT MATTER where boatbums, count-your-change, or Cynical bear attend church for worship and fellowship.

It is enough that they put their faith in Jesus alone for salvation, that they know they are saved by grace through faith in Christ, not of works so that they cannot boast.

That is the ONE FAITH.

It's faith in the finished work of Christ on the cross, not a denomination.

It does too matter, you won’t make it through the end
times following what ever you wish to believe. Jesus
established a Church, singular.

You need the “grace” offered through His Church. The
“awakening”, the Great Warning isn’t going to reveal Protestantism to be the true faith, the faith of the new
time, of the Millennium. The Remnant is Roman Catholic.

You must return Home, and the Orthodox too. God is going
to help you.
