Some maybe members of the Catholics, Baptists, Friday Night Bingo, the local library, this website, and other organisations. But these organisations may assist with a particular…[Read more]

The word church comes from the Greek word “Ecclesia” which is defined as “an assembly,” or “called out ones.” The root meaning of “church” is not that of a building, but of people.

In order to have unity of denominations, they all need to stoop to the lowest common denominator. This all embracing unity is not the same thing as unity in the Spirit.The Spirit is what unifies the Church. We are all members of the same body and Christ is our head. We are joined with God, Christ, and each other in God's Spirit. In this way we are…[Read more]

It is possible that a world sick of religious violence may turn to unity of all religions for world peace. It would only take the Catholics, WCC, and Islam to unite the majority of those who believe in a God. They all have common threads on which they could unite. Of course extremists wouldn't have a bar of it, but moderates out number…[Read more]

I believe within a hundred years after the death of the last apostle, John, there were about 20 forms of Christianity and 50 years later, many many more.…[Read more]
