The older I get the more difficult my vision becomes and in fact it’s almost impossible for me to SEE true disciples of Jesus any more. I’ve fished in several “streams” of followers and it seems that they all have some cahrge, some fee, or something they want from YOU before they allow you the IN privledges.
We know all about the divisions of denominations; however, there are larger cultural powers and principalities at work here that cover larger chunks of time and history.
John R. Gavazzoni nailed it when he said, “Someone very observantly summed up the onward sweep of Christianity westward over the last two centuries in the following analysis, and I give you my version of his perspective: The Jews tried to keep Christ contained within their law, while the Greeks sought to turn Him into a philosophy; the Romans made of Him an empire; the Europeans reduced Him to a culture, and we Americans have made a business of Him”.
And if you look at the religious TV channels in your area you can see how and why, not to mention the scandalous hundreds of millions of dollars that several so-called “evangelists” make from their entertainment programs.
