Is there any place in the world where the Catholic Church was able to be established that it does not still exist in some form or fashion? I just happen to believe that it will still be here until the end of time.<br /><br />I like to compare the Church to something we in the South know all too well - Kudzu.

It did survive, but largely boosted by 19th and 20th century migration from Ireland and some conversions from Protestant communities. Mexico and Ireland are good examples of successful resistance, with Mexico resisting for seven decades and Ireland for four centuries. God bless them. <br /><br />What will become of us? I think Southern Catholics will fair better than our Northern brethren, since we have a longer history of survival in an unfriendly, and at times outright hostile, religious culture.

We evaluate our progress according to these goals, goals which are meant to foster hope, not pessimism. <br /><br />The stated purpose of the UN is to prevent war, protect human rights, enforce treaties and develop nations. I think the UN has a hard time understanding the nature of the Catholic Church beyond the Vatican City State, but the UN is right to demand more responsible efforts to protect children from abusive priests and religious. The Church can speak more convincingly about abortion, contraception and homosexuality once she is seen to take consistently effective action to protect those vulnerable to priestly abuse.

The question as to whether there is a point at which the Church is no longer the Church has been posed by many theologians who know far more than you and I. Perhaps I should qualify the question by stating it this way, "Is there a point at which the Church, as she exists today, becomes no longer the Church?" Anyway, the issue has come up before…like back in 1518, with disastrous results. Christ will not abandon the people of God, but He could well discipline the Church by leading the people of God down another road. <br />Now, it should not require too much imagination to come up with several scenarios in which this question might become rather immediate….look around…Priests like Ignotus are one of the symptoms and signs of a Church that is weak and straying.

When Jesus says, "Lo, I am with you always even unto the end of the world," he does not say in what form or manner He will be with us. Also, when He said that the gates of Hell shall not prevail against the Church, He did not specify what form the Church might take in the future.<br />The question must be asked, "is there a point at which the Church becomes no longer the Church?" I believe that there is, theoretically, such a point. We are flirting with it now. Christ will not abandon His Church, but He may lead her into new manifestations, new forms. We need to review the life of Israel with JHWH…a twisted and tortuous path. The question I posed is an important one.Genehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06672484450736725268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7846189835239594160.post-48983921570826652472014-02-05T19:14:18.645-05:002014-02-05T19:14:18.645-05:00Preacher.....Matthew 28:20.....Don't you read ...Preacher.....Matthew 28:20.....Don't you read your Bible?
