Hos 1:2 The beginning of the word of the LORD by Hosea. And the LORD said to Hosea, Go, take unto thee a wife of whoredoms and children of whoredoms: for the land hath committed great whoredom, departing from the LORD.
Because God was demonstrating to the people what they where doing, it is still the same now. When a woman is married too one man but shares her bed with another, is she not be unfaithfull?? Are we not married to Christ??
1Co_6:15 Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid.
Our other "friends " on this forum, are the manifestation of teh worst that religion is, teh antichrist spirit, that spirit of religion. Our very loud friend, has become teh church. no longer just a part, he is, the church and has taken on all that she is all the worst traits, all you read about her, he manifests, he cant burn people at teh stake, but he can kill them spiritually as he does, they do.
Who do we want to be identified with, ? how do we know who the catholics are, it is because all they speak is catholism. how do we know the SDAS when they come. because it is all about teh law, if you go start talking to unbelievers about Christ, they say we are religious, you talk to catholics about Christ, they say you are a protestant, most christians say I cant be a christian because i dont fit the worldly mould of what a christian is, but thats fine all that matters is Jesus knows my name.
As long as one remains in church, he will take on some of the traits of that church, good or bad, like I said., one cannot jump into a muddy puddle and not expect to get muddy.
That desert experience, is one we do alone with Christ.
God bless
