Hi Paul
i think we are debating over trifles.
Just because one says they are Christian does not mean they have the oil in their lamps.
In MAtt 25 the 10 major Christian faiths are portrayed as Virgins
1: Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. 2: And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.
These are the Christian Churches at the end of the Age. The oil in the lamps is the true Word of God.
Matt:25:3: They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:
But the wise have the word of God
Matt 25:4: But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.
10: And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.
11: Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.
Mt:25:12: But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.
Now compare with Matt 7:
Matt 7:22: Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
23: And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
So as we can see five of the major Christian faiths will not have the Truth of the Oil(word) and they will follow the AC.
