God is going to bring Christianity together and He tells you how in prophecy and it’s written in Scripture.
“True believers are already unified in the Spirit. Denominationalism (aka churchianity) is NOT Christianity. A one world religion is well, a one world religion, and it’s headed by Satan and the FALSE prophet, not God.”

I’ve been away, there are many comments to reply to, a lot, so I can’t but know I love you all.
I’ll say something because I believe prophecy is a help.
“Denomination” is a Protestant word, never existed in
Catholicism. Protestants are not “unified”, only in one
thing, the rejection of the true faith. The hallmark of
Protestantism is the inconsistency of belief.
Do you think the RCC is or will be the one world religion?
You are already deceived then. Satan is attacking the RCC
at the present and he’s stepping it up. He knows who the
true faith is...
Our Lord is not returning to make sure the RCC is destroyed
and to proclaim you are saved by the “grace” of the altar call, believe what you wish.
There's so much wrong with that it's hard to know where to begin.
Religion does NOT save anyone. True believers know that.
Protestantism is merely a label slapped on those who did not reject the *true faith* but those who recognized the authority and veracity of Scripture and rejected the corruption and immorality and other excesses within Catholicism.
One thing Catholics seems to be pretty good at is failing to recognize and address the fact that Luther did not want or intend to start a new church or denomination. He wanted to get rid of the immorality and corruption which he saw in the Catholic church and get back to the Scripture that the Catholic church CLAIMS IT wrote.
How ironic that the RCC ends up ex-communicating him for wanting to fix the problems within the church.
FWIW, the word *church* is not found in the NT in the Greek either. The word is *assembly*, so the argument against the use of the word *denomination* is invalid.
Prophecy isn't really of any help at all because we have Scripture.
If what the prophecy says contradicts Scripture, we can know its source, that it is of Satan the father of lies, and can be rejected on that basis alone.
If the *prophecy* agrees with Scripture, then it is really not prophecy, it is merely teaching what Scripture already addresses and therefore is redundant and unnecessary. At that point the motives of the person calling themselves a prophet should be called into question.
Also, considering what Scripture teaches about false prophets, one has to wonder what the big attraction is to some people to call themselves prophets.
So tell me.....WHY should we believe those so-called *prophecies* you've been repeatedly posting?
Jesus did away with religion when He died on the cross and NOBODY is saying that anyone is saved by an altar call or that that is how one receives grace.
God LAVISHES His grace on us freely, not in sting little packets based on works we do to earn them.
Ephesians 1:3-14 3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places, 4 even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him. In love 5 he predestined us for adoption as sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will, 6 to the praise of his glorious grace, with which he has blessed us in the Beloved.
7 In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace, 8 which he lavished upon us, in all wisdom and insight 9 making known to us the mystery of his will, according to his purpose, which he set forth in Christ 10 as a plan for the fullness of time, to unite all things in him, things in heaven and things on earth.
11 In him we have obtained an inheritance, having been predestined according to the purpose of him who works all things according to the counsel of his will, 12 so that we who were the first to hope in Christ might be to the praise of his glory. 13 In him you also, when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, and believed in him, were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit, 14 who is the guarantee of our inheritance until we acquire possession of it, to the praise of his glory.
