Bible Note: Hi, Steve. Thanks for the post re the infamous "Sophia" heresy, with which I am painfully well acquainted. I trust it will be enlightening to readers of this forum to know how horrid a heresy it is, and your post delineates its pitfalls quite well. That ungodly heresy, along with a number of other "fallings away" from the truth, led me to flee the Presbyterian Church (PCUSA) some six years ago, after having been an active communicant for 35 years. It became a matter of conscience with me that no longer could I support with my presence or temporal means a denomination that condoned the types of things it had begun to condone at the time -- and in some circles, sanctioning and actively encouraging them in those days. I confess that in the years of my absence from PCUSA I've become more and more estranged to the pulse of what's going on in this denomination. My sense was at the time I left that it had sunk about as low as it could go and still claim to be a church. I do hope that it is taking a turn for the better by now. --Hank |
