Or would that be too much of a Pharisee for your taste?
If you can imagine that scenario then you will understand the purpose of this thread in this forum. Yet, I thought the base note was clear needing no further explanation as to purpose. We are now examining a particular belief of “my pastor”, to put it in terms more familiar to you, and I am arguing that he was on solid ground to characterize the situation in the Church as poor poor Christianity.
Hope that clarifies.

Lots of "ifs" there Drake - none of which are reality. As the Lord knows, I've been known to be a Pharisee time and again.
You are arguing "that he was on solid ground to characterize the situation in the Church as poor poor Christianity". But you still miss the entire point, it is so very simple. I'm moving along Drake.
