What the church is really concerned about is what endures.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Through the ages, God has used the church to keep alive and pass down the story of what Christ has done for us.
We come to church not to hide our problems but to heal them.
In the ordinary church, it is suppressed by respectability, by a desire to appear better than we really are.
Oh the Christian church has encouraged enormous immaturity among the peoples who are its primary adherence.
There is a lot wrong with the church.
The way to preserve the peace of the church is to preserve its purity.
The Church doesn't censor. It tries to guide its faithful through catechism.
When anyone has the power to destroy the whole human race in a matter of hours, it becomes a moral issue. The church must speak out.
I see clearly that the thing the church needs most today is the ability to heal wounds and to warm the hearts of the faithful; it needs nearness, proximity.
If indeed this is the work of God... then it's a crisis that calls for the church to be its very best self, and not worry about risking itself for the right thing.
