1 | Concept of Heaven and Hell in OT | 1 Cor 10:20 | Lon3RB | 184711 | ||
I was talking about my "Religion's of the World " class with someone at work. She could not believe that the teacher didn't know certaina things. For example Mrs Shah didn't know that Protestants don't do the sign of the cross. When she found out that this was true she replied "You don't believe in the cross." Glory! The idea of purgatory in the old testament came from someone who claimed to be protestant. Although she was trying to figure out the sign of the cross. Maybe my classmates don't read their bibles. Mine is pretty well read. I was suppose to bring in something to show my religion. I brought in a number of things. Two of those things were bibles. ONe was a King James Version copywrite 1983. The cover was off of it. The other was a Revised STandard Version 1901. The cover is a little ragged, but it is in better shape than my KJV. I also brought in two hymnals. Mom use to be a choir director. She had a "Pilgrim Hymnal" from when she directed at the Congregational Church. I also brought in a hymnal/story book from Ideals "Guideposts." And two reference books. All this plus information for my Oral Presentation which included two photo albums. I am glad you clarified that purgatory was a Catholic thing. That was what I thought. I also know that the Pope is Catholic. But my teacher talks as if the Protestants are under the Pope. I had this same trouble when I visited the HIndu Temple. A particular Priest was said to be like "the Pope." But it might have been said more personally than that. Like "your Pope." So the joke and/or outrage of the day is that the Pope has become Protestant. I mean Catholics and Protestants both believe pretty much the same thing. Right? So why not group everyone together? I do remember studying the Protestant REformation at one point. And if I am correct Protestants are under the Pope. We kind of "broke away" from the Catholic church. |

Hello Lon, I can appreciate where you're coming from, and in no way want to come across as uncaring. However, unless I'm missing something, your posts appear to have nothing at all to do with the study of God's Word? Might I recommend that you familiarize yourself with the "About Forum".
