It's a tribute to the power of a bureaucracy. They had a long time to work out their "story". And some people will believe anything. <br /><br />Maybe in our day, Bunyan's prophecy will become more evident.<br /><br />Thanks for reading.John Bugayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17728044301053738095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6789188.post-48417137161550214922011-04-13T09:04:48.035-04:002011-04-13T09:04:48.035-04:00I remember in John Bunyan's Pilgrim's Prog...I remember in John Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress, Christian passes the dead or dying giants "Pagan" and "Pope."

The fact that Rome confounds evangelicals, and Reformed evangelicals especially, shows the necessity of re-fighting the battles that have been fought in past generations. <br /><br />I think we have a tremendous opportunity to press for significant concessions from Rome in our generation -- we know more today -- and Rome seems more aware than ever of the shakiness, and the non-existent nature, of its own history. <br /><br />And the communication speed of the internet makes it likely that anyone in the world can know the same things at the same time. <br /><br />I believe good days are ahead for the Reformation vs. Rome.John Bugayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17728044301053738095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6789188.post-42324089438288436522011-04-12T18:25:41.851-04:002011-04-12T18:25:41.851-04:00Yes, Steve.

If you were going to recommend one book, what would it be? Maybe the folks at Beggars All should write a book.Wes Whitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17353106324421883158noreply@blogger.com
