I had no idea what that was.
Catholicism without the Pope, you know, that's what most people think.
They wear black instead of white.
um yeah it's the eastern the eastern church and so they're they are catholic light excuse me catholic like if you're a protestant you're looking through protestant eyes they both have incense their priests look like they wear dresses you know they say words we don't know what they mean and they speak in different languages it all looks like hocus pocus when you're a protestant yeah but but yeah you know there's a
Protestant evangelicals are balkanizing though even in American evangelicalism because we recognize that there is a sickness among Protestants that have decided to cater to worldliness
By that I mean doing what is popular in the culture as opposed to what is scriptural.
Yes.
And so there is, I think,
hell to pay for mega churches and for your big box evangelical super center churches.
Because for so many years, their church growth methodology or their church growth policy was just to see how big they could get.
Almost growing a church the way Rome satisfied the Romans there at the end, just bread and circuses.
I used to joke about churches shooting midgets out of cannons just to get a crowd on Sunday.
Pastors were coming in on zip lines and it's always something attractional.
And that's really great until the first time in your life you hit a real crisis or you have something...
that is deeply troubling you, you have an issue in your life that a good time on Sunday morning doesn't help you overcome.
You need something deeper.
And people are right now, I think, fighting, almost resisting the big box megachurch experience in the United States, which is good, and they should.
And I hope that many of those big churches, not because they're big, but if they're big because they were trying to water down the doctrine and just see how many people
warm bodies they could put into a room at the same time and call the church, they should die because that's not actually biblically what a church is.
So anyways, with the balkanization, you have Christians going their own way.
