Message-ID: <"90-02-12-19:11:25.14*UK3W"@DKAUNI2.BITNET> Date: 12 Feb 90 20:00:33 GMT Sender: Practical Christian Life Reply-To: Practical Christian Life Lines: 16 Approved: NETNEWS@PSUVM Gateway I think there is a basic problem here: Please note that Christianity is not equal to what some church might have commited in the past. We are only on the way, which is Jesus. Every one of us, every church is subject to making mistakes, even if they try their best. I disagree with a lot of what the Catholic church (and the Protestant also) has done in the past; I also disagree on some things taught by others, although I am Catholic and Protestant myself (yes, this IS possible). But I don't stress that, because it doesn't matter to me where you come from (I hate labels), only if you have Jesus or not. And it is not upon me to judge. God knows, and He will be the judge at the end of times. I believe that I have Jesus, but I am not superior to those who are not born-again Christians. I am just another human being, a slave of God, and I am thankful that he has forgiven me and accepted me the way I am. Praise be God! Matt
