I'm not being "too-Hard", here.
Both Christian groups of folks
have received so much -- too
much to "just forget" all that's
in-it.
Jesus is supposed to Stand-
in-your-Center, but where is
His Teaching with respect to
"Loving neighbor"?
My 'quarell' is a Lover's, with
you folks -- on =both= 'sides' of
your Long-Sufferingness -- in
my 'heart'.
You folks deny yourselves
when you 'deny' Jesus, in your
Living.
You know?
=Please= Forgive my Forthright,
'intrusion' into your long-'familiar'
'state' of affairs, but, gees, 'louise'!
If you folks 'deny' Jesus, you're
neither Protestants, nor Catholics,
but just some more Warring-fact-
ions who put themselves before
all else.
And look at the 'example' you
folks are setting -- even to your
Children -- as you Bear the
Name of Christ.
Dig deep.
Find your 'hearts'.
I Beg you folks.
On =both= 'sides', there should
be Jesus.
You know?
Can't you see that the absence
of that one thing is the wellspring
of the "intensity" which animates
your Long-Suffering?
It is.
For as long as I've known of it,
you folks' Suffering has been my
Suffering -- and Jesus's Suffering,
too.
You know?
=Come together=, in Whose Name
you Claim, and let =nothing= be a
"stumbling block" in your path.
Love, ken [k. p. collins]
