Hi Lance,
[As for me, I want to thank the Lutheran Church and the Episcopal church for proving once again that Jefferson was right on the mark with his observations. I'm not sure when Karl Marx replaced Jesus among the traditional denominations but it's always evident that such is the case.]
Would you list the traditional denominations?
How would you describe the way Karl Marx replaced Jesus? In fact I might agree with you on some denominations, but not all denominations.
Since you state such, what denomination do you belong to, or how do you know the doctrinal positions of the various denominations and local churches?
I ask these questions because I read/hear so much criticism of Christian churches and denominations, and it is usually by folks who belong to none, do not know the Bible, and are unsaved. It is just prejudice speaking, with little knowledge.
I would submit that most people who are so critical of Christianity and local churches just do not want to be submissive to Christ and the church He established. They do not want to be accountable to anyone, including Christ. They do not want to accept that there are absolute moral values and some day they will have to answer to God for their lives.
I am not saying all that applies to you, but that is the reason for my questions.
Regards,
Jerry
