<t>1. Many churches stress works and sacraments. Liturgy. Traditions instead of the word of God (ie. infant baptism as being invalid). 2. What is written is how it was and what is written will come to pass. 3. Joseph was also the name of Mary's father. One lineage is for Joseph...

The BUSH administration should commission TED to do SPIN for them. He is an ace, at it!

He rips pages right out of the BIble with ease. Anything he doesn't like goes right out the window as "not real".

Christianity has been turned into a religion by people. The Bible stands as the representation of our reality, sent to us through men God used for that purpose. No other way is valid at all. Not one. Time will bear this out.
