ALL religious systems were founded by men, Catholicism included.

Jesus came to reconcile men to Himself, not start a new religious system.

He had already established a religious system under the Law and that didn’t work. No new one would either because righteousness does not come by the Law but by having it imputed, or credited to our account by God through faith in Jesus Christ.

Born again believers are His Bride. An organization is not His bride.

Do you go to a church on Sundays? If so, which flavor?

If you do not, I can understand that also.

I love how you often cut through the piled-up nonsense and bring it all back to the grace of God in Christ! THAT I can get behind. Bless you!
