Well, Dave. You have read what I've said about the Bride of Christ. You can accept it or reject it. Which you do, I don't know now, but I will in the future. As for you being a methodist, I was raised that way, and found it to be very wrong. Women preachers is one of the reasons. Study for your self in God's word, and see what you come to know about what I've been saying. It is very offensive to some, but to others, it is very good. This is evident from this list. ;-)
