You still don't know. Nice try but a epic fail.....
I am not ashamed of my religious beliefs. I have not abandoned the Faith for man-made doctrines, and been so ashamed that I cannot even tell anybody.
Even sick twisted John Travolta (who also abandoned the Faith) can openly speak to the cult that he joined.
Galatians 2:20-21 20 I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. 21 I do not nullify the grace of God, for if righteousness were through the law, then Christ died for no purpose.
My identity is Christ and being in Him, not the local assembly which I attend for services.
Since churches and religions cannot save, membership in them is meaningless. I've attended all kinds of churches from GARB (Baptist) to OPC to Pentecostal, and my identity is not with any of them because they don't save.
I suppose that if someone is of the school that churches save, this WOULD go right over their heads.
Romans 1:16-17 16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. 17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith, as it is written, The righteous shall live by faith.
“I am not ashamed of my religious beliefs”.
Then why attribute such feelings to others?
“Even sick twisted John Travolta.......”
Who has paid out billions for it's sick, twisted priests?
“I am not ashamed of my religious beliefs”.
And yet the origin of so many of them are “man made doctrines”, that which you say others have fallen away to.
