I'm saying that ALL denominational churches with paid clergy/priests/whatever are ALL incorrect and NOT in accordance with the will of God. Orthodox, Catholic, and all Protestant denominations alike. All of that structure and regulation is obfuscation at best and idolatry at worst and just completely unnecessary.

The ecclesia spoken of by the apostles is NOT what we have now, nor what was intended.

I don't need a priest, pope, or patriarch when I have direct access through Christ. All that other stuff is just a bureaucratic complication that has done very little else than to water down the Gospel. I find it all contemptable.

Why should I not want the falsities to be burned away, both within me and without in the world?

The Body of Christ is NOT led by a man other than Christ himself. There is no place I've seen in scripture that leads me to think otherwise.

Catholic, orthodox, and Protestant are not “denominations” they are large groups within Christendom called “Traditions” made up of many denominations. Methodist and Presbyterian and Roman Catholic and Coptic Catholic and Eastern Orthodox and Coptic orthodox are all different denominations within different traditions. Just FYI!

I'm aware. I refuse to use that terminology since the implication of it is incorrect. None of those are traditional. In fact, I reject "traditional" as a whole because Christianity should be nothing of the sort. The very thought is repugnant.

Ok just make up whatever you want and talk to yourself then lmao

“Traditions” and “traditional” are not interchangeable words for most people just fyi

I'm not making up what I want. I'm going AGAINST what I want. I'm lazy. It would be easier to hey abdicate responsibility instead of working it my salvation with fear and trembling.

I talk to myself all the time. 😎
