@tweezereprise@rabbriansamuel Of course not, that would imply that humans decided what was true about Him. If truth about God is relative to the culture you find Him in, then you have divided God. The only truth about God that holds is what He's revealed about Himself through the prophets and the incarnation.
@tweezereprise@rabbriansamuel There are many paths to God, only if God is schizophrenic.
"For I the LORD do not change..." - Malachi 3:6

@MikeWingerii I had sincerely hoped for their reform because of what the ministry meant to me when I was younger. But alas. Keep fighting the good fight Mike. Youโre genuinely doing Godโs work out there.

Romans 14:14
I can eat pork, you shouldnโt.
@Pontifex Itโs is for the Holy Spirit to produce in us the fruit of the Spirit, not Mary as honoured as she may be. She does not need to teach us anything beyond setting an example of obedience and faith. The Holy Spirit is present right now to teach us, as Jesus promised.
@superxtianmario I view her as my mother insofar as Jesus is my brother. But I wonโt stretch it beyond that.
I understand the argument about โbehold your motherโ, even if I disagree with it. Itโs not that big of a rift for me.
