I understand everyone's point of view. It certainly does matter. I guess my question is better framed in a different way. What is more dangerous, a different Christian Church view about good works and salvation, different views on Baptism, etc or the battle that we are facing against evil in this world? While we have been spending our time fighting each other over our differences, we have all been getting our buts kicked by the Atheist as well as Christian Progressives. This fighting amongst ourselves is hurting our churches as well as our society. No Christian Church is safe. No church has been able to avoid the infiltration of immoral beliefs in our churches. Unlike Protestant churches, the Catholic Church has safeguards that prevent traditional Christian morality from being altered in an official sense. This is in contrast to churches such as the Anglican/Episcopalian, United Methodist, and the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America whose moral teaching has been officially changed to include immoral teachings. And even though the Catholic Church and its schismatic brothers like the Eastern Orthodox are protected from ever having to officially accept and teach immorality, it's happening anyway.
Frankly, a Protestant who believes in Sola Fide but remains loyal to Christian morality doesn't give me any reason to worry. If any Protestant wants to believe in Sola Fide, I say knock yourself out, as long as you maintain Christian Morality. I believe we need each other to be unified in this horrendous battle we are facing from the Atheist and Christian Progressives. For God's sake, am I the only Christian the is horrified that so many males are getting their genitals removed. And what about all the women getting their breasts removed. Have you ever read the dystopian novels like 1984, Animal Farm, and A Brave New World. Much of the predictions in those books have come true. A great example is a prediction found in A Brave New World where author Aldous Huxley predicted that in the future small children would be expected by the society to engage in erotic play. Have you seen the news lately? This is already happening!
Please give me comfort and tell me that my fellow Christians are as horrified as I am.
