Well thank you for receiving hail. You see hail speak of a hard water; in other words a HARD Spiritual WORD. It is not of matter of the Pope, all religions have their Popes, it is a matter of hearing God or hearing man. It is not my way, or the Catholic way it is Gods Spirits way.
Psalm 103:7
He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel.
There is a big different from follow religion and following Christ, religion is from man, Christ is divine. The Children of Israel could not even see Gods glory because the glory was so overwhelming to the carnal earthy eyes, but Moses saw Gods glory. Are you seeing Moses with a veil over his head or are you seeing God. Check out Ray Prinzing on the Web.
In my Fathers house are many mansions; or Greek abiding place. All people have a different abiding place then you. Our place is not to condemn that abiding place but to seek, ask and knock to know God in a deeper abiding place that I am now. Yes there is false teachings out there, we all know in part, see in part. If Jesus was upset with anyone in his day it was not the sinners; it was the religious. Here we have a chance to reach out beyond where God has placed us and to speak of the deep things of God with fellow believers from hundreds, maybe thousands of other beliefs who in times past were limited by the little box know as their religion what ever that might be.
Romans 8:18-21 (MSG) That's why I don't think there's any comparison between the present hard times and the coming good times. The created world itself can hardly wait for what's coming next. Everything in creation is being more or less held back. God reins it in until both creation and all the creatures are ready and can be released at the same moment into the glorious times ahead. Meanwhile, the joyful anticipation deepens.
22-25All around us we observe a pregnant creation. The difficult times of pain throughout the world are simply birth pangs. But it's not only around us; it's within us. The Spirit of God is arousing us within. We're also feeling the birth pangs. These sterile and barren bodies of ours are yearning for full deliverance. That is why waiting does not diminish us, any more than waiting diminishes a pregnant mother. We are enlarged in the waiting. We, of course, don't see what is enlarging us. But the longer we wait, the larger we become, and the more joyful our expectancy.
