However, it is all the more important for our time, not to continue in the same practices of that former time, but rather to press on to perfection, leaving behind the elementary principles of Christ.

You must be lost. A rudderless ship.

There was a different time.

Some tried to stick about.

Some float to the mountains of other hiding places.

Overall I think actual Christians were virtually nonexistent.

Remember there were always those groups would not submit. There were places that were free of Catholicism.

Definitely not a good time.
We are not as far apart in some things as you sometimes seem to think. Give the glory!

In linguistics rules of grammar a figurative phrase with a known literal meaning is considered literal.

Is the cover of your Bible leather or plastic?
