I believe it is not safe to take risk that I believe perhaps the only way to be saved is to receive Christ as Lord and saviour that we should all do so those who went to church can judge for themselves if they experience God presence in every problem to have His peace to know He is with them and absolutely know He is guiding them and hear His voice to confirm He is with them otherwise they should trust only in Christ that is to ensure people are saved and to be raptured before maybe not all tribulation but before time when Satan is loosed to make it guaranteed for all become Christian’s to be persecuted so all Christian’s should priests can also do to say to people now to receive Christ as Lord and saviour though to give communion to tell all people to and we can pray for God to reveal what is true if all Christian’s can be saved. For no priest has to support church beliefs or he can offer to accept it conditionally but he himself not support it but just for sake of offering to test not to actually accept it only conditionally.

It is a mistake to make divisions to trust those who do to be discouraged by others not supporting you to think they are right that it is not just to make divisions as people also don’t know to follow it and wrong to offend others by judgement to feel others don’t care for others to be offended by lack of care to judge people who are commited to teaching church because they don’t know it is wrong though some may doubt and be affected by divisions yet not wish to cause divisions to show lack of care to others who have family that teach in churches to make them less serious if they doubt yet they may become less serious if they find others do not support them to show care that to judge them is wrong to make them less serious as all need to be ready any can follow whatever church one wants so I will not support divisions. It is important only that all are repenting so if they die they are ready. Also as those who are repenting and ready will be protected from sudden punishment if it comes or some or all who are will be protected from hour of trial from persecution or if some are not will be supported by God to be able to endure it or will be raptured before time of great tribulation where devil is loosed where all who are not protected in wilderness are persecuted.

Actually I can not mislead you if there is risk of being wrong others should be following what they believe is true and telling others to not responsible for them to stumble person should trust only in Christ as saviour if there is risk perhaps if we pray Christ will show truth

See below

With all respect to the rock he means well though should restore wrongs but it is not enough to redeem one person he may understand that but could be at risk if one trusts not in Christ to save that works will be fruit of True salvation that you will want to and know you should do to help those in need only proof one is saved that you seek to help those in need if you can though such works are not necessary if can’t


Actually I do believe I should still trust God and not make divisions that any Christian can be saved as long as he does not think he can earn salvation by his works that such needed to be done as though his works contribute to making one worthy to redeem oneself that God does not need works but if others are worried they can seek to trust only in Christ without church as necessary to be saved to save them now but that works show that you have and are required to do if you can.

I don’t agree with judging people who follow churches though since not sure what is true incase true I will follow Orthodox Church incase experience God presence in it I will follow it for life if it helps because may support me in future if need strength and peace in soul unless God calls me not to prove as if limited to church some may not marry and God may show otherwise to help people have chance to marry because otherwise they may not if others do not give chance.

I know I am at fault for not reading the bible to not have peace and pray but will I have assurance God will be with me and people to teach that so I follow church and I am not sure bible reading is enough to also give me strength to be able to do any labour to learn things to be useful for preaching which includes sharing your skills and growing wealth to share with poor so they may grow and multiply as community serving Jesus and the oil In the parable of the virgins is to go to those who give you the sacraments that the Holy Spirit may work with you to do so though it is never too late to repent that if you wish to accept church to repent to do but can not do it is accepted. The main important thing from church is to pray which sacraments allow that you don’t need to do any particular thing to accomplish but it would naturally lead you to things you can do.

I am reminded of this church song

1- (How lovely it is to get together in love our Lord teaches us

When two meet in my name together

I will always be in between their gather) (2x)

R- (O Lord come now and join us here

We ask you to come and give us cheer

Fill us with joy from your Holy Spirit

And peace no riches can provide) (2x)

2- (The Lord is here always with us

How lovely he is, how content we are,

We talk to him and he always listens

He'll always be with us in us) (2x)

It is wrong to support to follow that Christ said that all need to follow one group of people as is unreasonable that can not expect all to follow if not proven and not all will and I believe Christ wants to trust Him to support me as I seek to follow Him according to what I can do the oil is simply relationship with Christ growing in fellowship with Him and serving Him according to what one can do through that which others help person to know gospel for some could just have been raised Christian but did not really ever believe themselves to read scripture and ask God to help them believe or they had been among Christian’s pretending to be but not sure whether they want to trust not having faith they seek it from others and their failure to hear and trust others because they had sought to delay to come to Christ came when it was too late when they realised He is coming which it is too late to seek Him or did not believe gospel for themselves that it is necessary for others to believe in Christ and that is why He came to save them from having to pay for their sins in eternal punishment and they need to repent and follow Him but they just stayed in the surroundings of church and help one if one needs understanding how to grow to do which they must only be doing at all times as they don’t know when they die to only need to do what they can do so I will not support divisions but others can follow that if they think but I will go to church only to support for fellowship to aid walk with God but will not follow because not right to because they are not able to witness to all that definitely it is only way.

I appreciate rating me friendly but that can also be regarded as me as sign as not doing what I should that I do it to compromise because I see others will not follow.

Unfortunately I don’t find Christian’s united that they don’t support me and since I can’t know if doctrine matters even if it seems hard since many make it important I will follow church that all should they should have boldness to admit the truth and guide others to follow what they think truth is also I know some in orthodox in teaching can heterodox be saved does not teach those born in other churches have to follow church if they really believed it or are not sure if not proven truth but those who see better to believe otherwise should but I don’t know perhaps they need to too so I will follow Orthodox Church and tell others to follow too. Even in lands where there is not much orthodox some can travel to get ordained as bishops and priests to go to location to where there is others people don’t need sacraments if it is not available just to accept faith and they can not travel but those who can travel must because they can bring church to other communities.

I see that orthodoxy is a man made religion that teaches salvation requires to go through a process to be saved so that others are not saved that if you don’t fulfil a whole process before even when you can’t you can’t be saved and is not safe to follow. I believe all should receive Jesus as Lord and Saviour as He is the only saviour that gives salvation that works are just evidence you truly received Christ that you would seek to follow what you can and to seek to help people because you don’t know when you die if you were not seeking to but if you don’t die and you were seeking to you would do works so works should be done if you can because you can die then when you are not seeking to though is not required if you can’t just that you don’t know you will live longer to be saved in 11th hour. Perhaps if we pray Christ will show that other Christian’s can be saved.

I believe orthodoxy is not right but I should not make divisions knowing God is just to trust Him not to judge any and I know not all orthodox teachers believe such a process is required but many priests seek to make it seem impossible for some I won’t follow orthodoxy but trust in Christ to ensure people are ready if any are worried among another can seek to follow any they want and can follow orthodoxy if worried but I trust Christ.

Since there is divisions and since can not know if acceptable if God is with me I believe all should stop divisions and have boldness to follow church and I will follow unless Christ shows me otherwise I did feel holy communion makes me feel like it would be inappropriate to sin so I did feel it’s affect so maybe I should follow church but though it seems divisions in church are not just that maybe orthodox is true church but Catholics who have not been absolutely proven the truth and orthodox who convert to Catholic unless proven the truth are accepted I know some officials in church teach other Christians can be saved but we don’t know as not all orthodox teachers do that it may not be position of church and I think as orthodox is most right people should follow it and leave judgement to God for if people believe in church they can follow it they are not more just than God.

I decided I would not follow church though I worry I do not have enough understanding if they can show more but I trust God that His word is enough for His Spirit to guide me to His word when I don’t have understanding as all need to be prepared and I should not support divisions if others are worried they can follow church.

To be safe as we don’t know if scripture teaches we need Jesus as free gift meaning that our works are just evidence we accepted Christ and are not needed not to put trust as though because one did works before that is the reason one is saved but one is saved because of Jesus though if one does not do works when one can one is not receiving Jesus and may die before one can call to Christ to seek to repent of that. That is to ensure people are saved and to be raptured if there is.Perhaps if we pray Christ will show that all Christian’s can be saved.

I decided it would not be right to support such divisions as should show care to those who could stumble from division to not want to judge to teach it as believe it does not help show care to those in their family who follow church as they do not know to make them ready. I just posted it as I saw it posted and was worried Incase to show support incase true but is wrong and I should trust God. Actually it would be wrong to stumble as people have to be honest to what they believe that they should follow what they believe is true and they will but it should be true and God calls to love no one more than Him.

I decided I would follow Catholic Church and I believe all should if they have heard to know church history may teach it if they are not without doubts for it would not be just to judge those who do not know for sure it is not true. Even if one disagrees with church teaching taught by pope now he can still follow the church as early church did not teach and they know it is not valid if contradict early church but he should obey if it is not bad if thinks could be true such as allowing remarriage in case person does not want to reconcile not if person is truly sorry and reconciles.

I do believe anyway church is not true since it would not be just if any were not shown truth and people are only responsible to what they heard to investigate and bible seems to teach we do not need works it is free gift to come at anytime you have opportunity to repent that people should trust in Christ so all should and leave judgement of other Christian’s to Christ perhaps if we pray Christ will show that all Christian’s can be saved.

Though I believe people need to trust only in Christ that they should I believe for myself I would only test churches Catholic and Orthodox to learn from it to only accept it conditionally if it can show which I think may not be putting trust in it but just to learn but others who can not see that it is true from others that none prove if I can not prove no one can then it is not true and should not trust in it for it should not be followed if not proven truth.

I have books that came to my house about rapture from Jewish believer at watch therefore ministries and I worried if true should tell people to trust in Christ.

I only thought to care about difference of beliefs for I see that others take advantage to not ever show mercy to help person who does not follow their belief or they may but for some reason not to me as if I need to stand for what is important and I can not know it is not true if others make it important that it could be.

I believe it is wrong to make divisions that I should trust in God justice that He does not judge those who follow churches not to know for sure that I should not make divisions for all to be ready. But I do believe I should encourage unity for all to be ready repenting to serve the Lord according to what one can that one may be saved and to be raptured incase there is one.

I decide that I would follow Orthodox Church though as it seems most right to me that can not know it is not true because not all orthodox teach it is not possible for any to be saved without works such as sacraments if there is no opportunity and since it seems most true I decided to follow incase it is necessary for me to seek to follow to learn so I do all they teach me if I find it would be required true according to bible or not repenting to not have opportunity to seek to repent later to call on Christ wanting to. I decided to follow to ensure I am ready since I may not have opportunity to repent to feel God presence with me now. Though I will also go to Catholic Church if they can convince but I don’t believe others should incase not true as I will to know.

I will follow church just to find out though priests if they don’t know better really should accept Christ as Lord and Saviour and they can offer valid sacraments even if others are not convinced they do not have to to show it is not valid as one would not be able to that only those who insist on church to find others that do though would be wrong from them and could not be guaranteed if many did not and perhaps priests don’t have to show clearly their position all the time lest they lose it if they don’t know better but receive it themselves as long as they still talk about Him at other times to show loyalty to Him they should not fear losing it if they are not allowed to preach it incase it is true as they should be free to follow what they truly believe that it is wrong to control others though it is wrong but I think for others it is not wise incase there is chance as many prophesy as though they are knowledgeable and seem that they could know more also seeming filled with the Spirit and there is divisions that it is safe for all to receive Jesus as Lord and Saviour. Perhaps if we pray God will show that all Christian’s can be saved.
