This thread is amazing.......ly absurd. Sorry if that offends you.

It started with the claim that the RCC invented church buildings, tithes, clergy and other things which were then labeled sinful because of the RCC connection...

and now it's just a regular Barnum and Bailey 3-ring circus by spending several pages debating whether or not we should call a building the house of God. Six pages thus far on what to call a building

David, don't you think that you are stretching the truth, some. A whole lot!

What I actually said,

Come Out Of Her My People

Let's face it. We are ruled in the churches by Pagan Christianity.
It was the Catholic Church that brought in the Trinity baptism.
The hierarchy of Clergy and Laity.
The paying of tithes.
Church buildings
And many other things

.

I never, in any of my Posts wrote, that the Catholic Church invented any of these things. I also wrote that the RCC COMBINED Christianity with Paganism and the Old Testament.

Meaning they took bits of the OT Law, (Priesthood----Temples---Tithes) and combined with the Pagan notion of three gods, (Trinity---later the Holidays)) And for Political reasons combined it with Christianity. Trying to combine all Religions into one. And they AUTHORIZED, made it official, that anyone that did not do as they had set it up, would be persecuted.

For the record---The Catholic Church, DID NOT INVENT ANYTHING. Except to try to force all Religions into ONE. Just as she is trying to do today, along with the United Religions Org and a host of other Organizations. And they will get the job done.

I did not put this article on here to cause confusion, or controversy, although I also knew that it probably would-----because---people are too comfortable in what they have been taught, therefore resisting any facts, that they could easily check out. Too comfortable to check, to study, and see if what I'm writing is true. Too afraid, even to calmly discuss what I have written. They would rather throw dirt, mockery and ridicule, than to get out of their comfort zone and do some study.

I am old enough to see that the church, that in the past that was bound with man-made laws, now is switching to become more like the other churches, more like the world, and is slowly dying.
Both are wrong doctrines, however, those that were willing to forsake the lifestyles of those around them, loved Jesus enough to be “different” if it was required, and so God continued to bless.

Just as God does not care what you wear, (except all thru the Bible, we are taught to be modest. And if you are modest in heart, you will dress modest,) It is the same with buildings. God does not care what building you meet in. He does not live in buildings. Because we are the church, it is not church, until the people of God get there.

But it is not my intention on this Post to discuss buildings, tithes, Trinity, but to discuss, How that people can come out of the lackadaisical mindset, that is causing them to drift towards the falls. And to do that we have to WAKE-UP, and realize, the Leaders are not always right, therefore we have to do some study on our own and know that we know, what God's Word says.

Those that will not WAKE-UP and see the Paganism in their lives, will go one or two ways. They will gradually drift until they will accept the ONE WORLD RELIGION, which I believe is the STRONG DELUSION of these last days.
Or they will stand firm in their churches, until their churches are taken away from them.

God says, COME OUT OF HER MY PEOPLE. And to do that, most do not know, that, that is a completely different mindset. And takes a dedication that is just about as different as the Old Covenant was from the New Covenant.

And in this day, the Denominations are about as bound by Traditions, conventional thinking, as it was in Paul's day, when he chastised the Early Church, for trying to hold on to their traditions.

Galatians 3:1 O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you?
:2 This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
:3 Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh?

What is of the flesh? I believe that each individual has to find that out for themselves as they STUDY and OBEY, the Word of God, with dedication to God.

Since I don't have all of the answers, it could even be, that if a person could find even a half decent church, that they would be instructed as Jesus instructed the Jews. “Do as they say, but not as to their works.” And of course this was temporary, because Jesus had to confirm the Law, until it was finished.
