Re: Do Plain Catholics exist?
People need to quit treating other Christians outside of their own denominations like enemies. I don't do that, and in fact maintain cordial relations with other Catholics - indeed, a Catholic person and myself will be organising an ecumenical summit (as much as one is possible) between Mennonites ...

Re: War in Gaza
I haven't spent time in this topic.
Tonight I sat down to read Zephaniah. It's been awhile.
Chapter 2 caught my eye, I don't know- this is a prophetic book. Not sure then the mention of Gaza in Chapter 2 is meant to be.

Re: Do Plain Catholics exist?
Maybe whoever invited him would rather not be revealed. I see the mob mentality against him. I liken it to those after Trump, no matter how Max would answer any questions the relentless accusations and pursuit to insist he came here to proselytize will never end. He knows this. Our dear Orthodox fri...

Re: Church good at evangelization
If evangelism is just living by example then every Anabaptist church is "good at evangelism" You also need to talk about it. Indeed- the very definition of evangelize indicates sharing the Gospel. The first Anabaptist I met, an Amish man I would say had the gift of evangelizing every wher...

Re: Do Plain Catholics exist?
It may be but he's ever so correct in thought and observation. This obsession is so weird .. He is as you describe, IN SOME WAYS. When he first registered, i encouraged him, i was interested, i saw him as a devout Catholic, RCC, i wasn’t concerned about “plain.” Others were. Some were (i thought, a...

Re: Questions about Communion / Lord's Supper
The blessing of Communion is in being obedient to Christ. I think it is very important not to fall into argument over the variance among groups (Although it is interesting to see how others practice Communion, and how those practices evolved). From its birth, Anabaptism was about simple obedience t...

Re: Questions about Communion / Lord's Supper
In Davids book he said ";The Latish speaking church referred to baptism and communion as "sacraments". The Greek speaking church referred to these same rites as "mysteries". Interestingly, Catholic scholars use the terms sacraments and mysteries interchangeably. The term My...

Re: Fast Food’s Quest To Feed Body And Soul
We have 5 Mexican restaurants in my town. They all do very well. One is pick up only but all homemade. When we moved to Medina 30 years ago there were none. We are huge fans! My Aunt & Uncle were Mormon. No coffee, tea, or alcohol but she drank Coke all day. We were perplexed at the difference. ...

Re: Questions about Communion / Lord's Supper
It’s interesting to read what was actually said am that bread of life. Joh 6:49 Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead. Joh 6:50 This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die. Joh 6:51 I am the living bread which came down from heav...

Re: Questions about Communion / Lord's Supper
The Church we attend has communion once a month. It is during the evening service. This is because the assumption is the more serious attendees and or actual members go to evening service. There's a little almost warning about who should take it. I don't like that they use white wine or juice instea...
