    The word, "Doctrine"

    Hmmm... Think its hard to misinterpet this: "But mark ye those who hold strange doctrine touching the grace of Jesus Christ which came to us, how that they are contrary to the mind of God. They have no care for love, none for the widow, none for the orphan, none for the afflicted, none for...

    The Church The Papacy Says You Should Join

    Not at all! You speak of a new beginning, a new foundation... Are there new apostles? Was not Paul the last? Who are these men that you follow? They went out from us, but they were not really of our number; if they had been, they would have remained with us. Their desertion shows that none...

    Hearing God

    The Word of God is a living person, Jesus Christ. When we focus on His love letters to us and ignore Him, we miss out.. You search the scriptures, because you think you have eternal life through them; even they testify on my behalf. But you do not want to come to me to have life. You too...

    Who has read Malachi lately?

    Dear farouk, And yet your brothers and sisters in the apostolic churches have proclaimed its fulfillment in the celebration of the Eucharist for 2000 years. I would urge you to prayerfully consider that witness, and allow the possibility that it might be so. You too! Are welcome to come to...
