When is a Christian a Christian?
The Popester seems to be ignorant of the fact.....
Christians ARE the church.. no christians no church..
Clergy are religious lawyers..
bingo. Like I stated earlier, a church is when 2 or more Christians gather in Jesus’ name.
Whether or not the Clergy are described as a form of “lawyer,” one of the chief issues with Protestantism is that the Protestant movement and the Protestant bibles (especially the KJV) lessen the role of the Priest by eliminating him as a necessary conduit between a Christian and Christ.
That is a driving issue IMO.
