its always hard for me to sit and listen to people make gross exagerations about the bible that are completely false.
-------
just wittnessed:
Teacher: How much does Christ love the church?
Student: (yelling) He Died For it!
Teacher: Yes- we see that written all over the bible, "Jesus Died fr the church"... its everywhere.
------
ok... really?
1. this phrase is actually NOT found ANYWHERE in teh bible, just FYI.
2. this is actually at some point of discussion- was the church, the way it is, something God desired when He died?
Hanz Kuhn, a catholic philosopher, said once:
"Christ came to esteblish a kingdom,
and all we gave Him was a church."
interesting to think about... im not sure how i feel about teaching our youth that the Church is something to hold on to.
for some reason i feel like that is just such a small world view.
what do you think?

I would tend to agree!
The church as a BODY, is one thing. But the church as an orginazation is a scary prospect. There are entirely too many "churches" preaching quite the opposite of what's written in the Scriptures.
SO not cool.
P.S. Looove the quote! I'm totally stealing it! =]
