If you believe in a coming one-world government and one-world religion, surely you can recognize that such efforts would appear to be not only futile, but working against destiny? They have and will maintain control over it until the second coming.

Do you vote? Are you working against "destiny"???

Yes it is.
I will fellowship those in my church that have TV.
But I won't allow my children to participate in an overnight with them.
Those fantastic, incorrect, immoral, and anti-Christian images are much harder to erase from our minds than the words we hear. If it's important to protect the developing minds of our children from its influence, why wouldn't we want to protect the mind of the bride?

We do want to protect our children. But we also want to teach them that our opinion isn't the only opinion there is. And as far as "protecting the mind of the bride", how about protecting the mind of the bride from negative thought patterns of "our way is the only way and also the right way!" Exclusion can be to our detriment when we exclude the opinions of those who are our brothers and sisters in Christ. I think protecting the bride from division is more important than pushing one opinion onto everyone in the name of "protecting the bride from itself because it can't lead itself, so the bride itself will make rules to encase itself thereby leading itself anyway."
