Neither the anonymous nor the spammer should serve the Church. >> Right from the Bible... idol worshipers are never to be redeemed, 1 Cor.6:9,10

"According to the Bible..."

alt.christnet.christianlife cut from headers.
The Church is Orthodox Christian.

let be known to widows and orphans that to suppose the Orthodox / Catholic, and all of the rest of
the people worshipers in the world making up the body of tares, who they pretend Christianity is
just another idol worshiping religion, are to be studiously avoided.

God has long since declared in no uncertain terms that idol worshipers are not and will not be
redeemed as we read in 1 Cor.6:9,10 ; De.29 and copious other text of Holy Scripture.

they are so dedicated to the worship of dead people that we are told they will be still be clinging
to their idols as God bring Judgement Day down on the world, Rev.9:20,21.

therefore, widows and orphans, stay far from them... neither give them a greeting, 2 Jn.1:9-11

Salvation belongs to the Lord, Ps.3:8. ( not Mary as their church fathers insist )

According to the Bible...
He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens,
that he might fill all things.) And he gave some, apostles; and some,
prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; For the
perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of
the body of Christ: (Eph 4:10-12 KJV)
Which means you and I should be going out, ministering, doing the works
that Jesus did. Leading people to the Lord so that the Body of Christ will
grow.
The apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers are to build us
up.
The works that I do will you do, and greater works than there because I go
to the Father. Those works are the signs/work of Faith. The works spoken of
in Mark Chapter 16.

the " Church " as far as organized religion is concerned is not the same thing as that which the
Bible teaches, and for a number of reasons.

at the top of the list we find the Orthodox, the Catholic " Church " rewording the Word of God in
order to serve idol of dead people their religions can not make due without.
these people have long ago ousted Jesus Christ as the Savior and made a dead human... a part of
God's Creation... a Co-Savior.

this being the case, and these people are proud and arrogant of it, Mary has all of the attributes
of the Living God and is able to redeem. yet, ask anyone Orthodox or Catholic if they have the
absolute assurance of salvation... and if they can be honest for one moment ( remember 1 Jn.2:22,
they are natural born liars and anti-Christs ) they will admit they are not redeemed.

of what value then is their religion since none of the many deities in it can save ?

beyond this, they can not understand the Holy Scriptures simply because idol worshipers are a
condemned lot. they think Christian love is dragging someone into their idol worshiping religion
which can not save by their own admittance... they pollute their own children with their worship of
dead people, and the relics they've robbed from graves of the dead they worship.
they pray to created things... such is witchcraft.

Christian love, as far as God is concerned, is the keeping all of His Commandments as we read in 1
John, one of which is not to worship the dead, De18., and not to be on their knees praying to Mary,
their goddess deity who they say forgives sin though God says quite to the contrary.

idol worshipers are not redeemed and can not be redeemed, 1 Cor.6:9,10; De29.
