Always good to hear from you and as always, I appreciate your support;)
How is your church doing? Did you remember the name of the FBI office who
contacted you regarding your faxed information on Mr. McCaskey? Did they
have an office located nearby your city at the time?
To answer your question, I'm going to be a bit general. First, both you
and Arah believe in God. The significant difference between you and he is
you believe Issa to be raised from the dead by Allah, and he does not. You
consider Issa to have all power, Arah does not. Likewise, Pope Benedict
believes in God the Father, who sent his Son Jesus as a sacrifice to redeem
us from our sins. The Father sent the Holy Spirit under the authority of
the Son to comfort and guide us. So, you have come similarity to both Arah
and Benedict.
Also, Arah, Pope Benedict and yourself belong to significant religions.
You and the Pope both run a church. The difference is, Benedict worked
with people to become Head of his church whereas you rebelled against
people and formed your own church because you could not get along with
anyone. So, why not your own church with you as its Head? Well, a
congregation of four hardly makes for much of a congregation, Secularly,
you can always declare it as quality time spent with your family, and
religiously, quality time spent teaching them about God. You win either
way.
Do I believe in a Roman idol? No. I believe in a living God who loved
us so much that he sent his own flesh and blood to redeem us because of our
transgressions against Him. Is that the Godly love you have toward others,
Steve? Who is the Master of your heart?
Cheers,
John
