Bible Question: Does this verse speak against denominational christianity? My Catholic spouse speaks against offshoots and chose to contend with me after 20 years of marriage, just because I found my own church just recently. |
Bible Answer: I mean no harm and disrespect, but would having the correct interpretation of this verse really be the solution that you're looking for?? Fact is, you did find a different church, and your spouse isn't too happy about that. And to answer your question, I'd have to say, 'NO' the original meaning of this verse isn't referring to denominational christianity. I truely pray that you will find what you're looking for.
