Zambian Archishop Ordains 4 Married Men As Bishop, Excommunicated By Pope by Rottweiler(m): 5:33pm On Sep 26, 2006
Pope Benedict XVI has excommunicated a Zambian archbishop, Emmanuel Milingo, two days after he ordained four married men as bishops.

What is happening in the church of God? Somebody give me an answer!

I am not a catholic but dont want the catholics to be disheartened by all that is befallen the church.

I think it is high time we focus more on Jesus Christ than on doctrines. Not just talking about Catholics but all churches worldwide.

We are loosing it and satan is happy. But too bad he cant have me because I am not controlled by doctrines neither do I put my faith in them. My hope and faith is in the Lord Jesus.He is my focus.

This is however not an excuse (for anybody) for NOT attending church services or mass. grin

Love ya kiss kiss

@obanikoro2,

But how do we focus more on Jesus Christ without paying heed to His doctrines?

John 14:15 - 'If ye love me, keep my commandments.'

John 14:23 - 'Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words. . .'

If the doctrine of Jesus Christ does not rule your life, you're opening yourself up to the enemy's attack.

I want to believe you are talking about the doctrines of men.
As Pilgrim.1 pointed out, we can't do without the doctrines of Christ.

thank you for undertsanding me smiley

Now let me clear myself here. What do u think I meant when I said "we should focus more on Jesus".
Do u think it is possible to focus on God and ignore His Laws and Commands?
When u are looking at God, u are seeing everytin about Him and do u know what I learnt here?

There is no way u can be looking up and be looking down at the same time (with one eye towards the sky and the other on the ground). If u can pls let me know.

Some people are so quick to crucify others that go against CHURCH doctrines while they themselves are liars and gossippers. I dont want to start mentioning some doctrines in order not to cause any problem but we should let the word of God be our standard and not CHURCH doctrine.

I am not against doctrines but when I see that sometin is not perfect, I rather go for (and focus on) that which is perfect.

AM I UNDERSTOOD NOW?

Infact, I had to wonder again and again if that archbishop's crime was his ordaining married women rather than married men. Hehe. . to order one's life according to Scripture is sure going to rattle a lot of nerves. He should realize his oath was in allegiance to the traditions of the Catholic Church, rather than to Scripture. grin

@obanikoro,

Cheers.
