@UltPatriot Do you know what the infant mortality rate was three hundred years ago? Five hundred? A thousand?
Do you know what it is today?
What changed?
@AnomalyBlessed@NateGreen44 No debate on Ephesus. He spent a short stint on his second missionary journey and two+ years there on his third.
It was one of his central hubs.

The Apostles didn’t leave us only written texts. The Church itself—its worship, its sacraments, its bishops—was there before a single Gospel was penned. Scripture was born inside the life of the Church, not apart from it.
Today we celebrate the memorial of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Queen of Heaven, also invoked as Queen of Peace. Let us fast and pray to implore the Lord for the gift of peace. Let us #PrayTogether that hearts may be freed from hatred, that we may move beyond the logic of division and retaliation, and that a shared vision inspired by the common good may prevail.
@PraysForGrace It uses the exact same descriptor of ALL Christians in Ephesians 1:6.
Your church has veered into idolatry and isn't even consistent with its own murderous history anymore.
@PraysForGrace Scripture shows no such thing.
And your own church puts her forward as being able to save you from Jesus.
At least get your idolatry straight.
