Subject: When did the catholic church go wrong? |
Bible Note: Norrie, following your note seems as good a place as any to call attention to two verses of Scripture. The first is from Isaiah 29:13: Then the LORD said, "Because this people draw near me from their words and honor Me with their lip service, but they remove their hearts far from Me, and their reverence for Me consists of tradition learned by rote."...... The other verse is from Matthew 15:8. Our Lord is speaking and is referring to the Isaiah verse quoted above: This people honors Me with their lips, but their heart is far away from Me. But in vain do they worship Me, teaching as doctrine the precepts of men..... These verses are worthy of close consideration by any group or organization that calls itself a church of the Lord Jesus Christ. --Hank |
