Restore which church? What is a church? Who's the owner of the church? Answer such questions then you will get to know the difference between a church and religion

[@justinamusyoka4986]

Should know why it's called "Roman Catholic church",it's Roman in origin ,it's us African who lost our spirituality and adopted Roman culture and faith. There's no way Arch Anyolo can change the church from the bottom not knowing a fish start rotting from the head and you can not salvage the tail. Already same sex marriages have been being blessed by RCC in Europe and the US,this was just for our information. To us Africans: How do a people claimed to be the original people from creation,the cradle of civilization became footstools for the vast empires,the Egyptian,the Greek,the Roman and the British? Can we restore ourselves back? We lost our way and bought into every aspect of their religion and culture. The term Religion comes from a Latin word that means to bind,bound.......and this time the mind. The term "Church" come from a Latin word "Circe" the goddess of the underworld. Don't Africans got Our words that fit the desired meaning than using words that were designed for word-play. Santa......satan, Noel......No elohim Bless.....Be less We use this words at our own peril.

🇻🇦🇻🇦🇻🇦 There are many types and varieties of blessings in the Catholic Church. If a murderer goes to a priest and asks for Jesus' blessing because he may be repenting of his past, the priest must bless him because he is a spiritual father and has the mercy and compassion of a father. When the priest blesses him, he does not approve of the murder he committed, it makes no sense. When the priest blesses him, he prays for him so that he can get rid of these bad sinful habits and that is the blessing that the priest gives. The Pope, as spiritual father, will bless them, but he will teach them the sacredness and importance of the Sacrament of Marriage between a man and a woman. The Catholic Church reject same-sex marriage. The Pope's duty is to show mercy and compassion, but anti-Catholics, including the media (not all), are twisting then exaggerating the issue.

*There used to be one church long ago, but divisions arose due to immoralities within the leadership and practices of the Catholic Church. Martin Luther, in response, founded the Protestant Church. Surprisingly, despite historical differences, the Catholic and Protestant churches are now united in supporting values that many of us consider unbiblical. This has led me to believe that it might be time for another split within the church, akin to the divisions in the Middle Ages. This division, in my perspective, should occur between the unity of African churches and that of the older Western church organizations, including both Protestant and Catholic entities.* *Let the Western churches and their congregations continue with practices that, in my view, violate Romans 1:24-27. Meanwhile, I believe that African churches should uphold the clear criteria and emphasis on godliness and purity outlined in the biblical verses. From a biblical perspective, I perceive the Western churches as being under a curse, and as Africans, we may consider a separation from them as a consequence.* *Furthermore, the traditional cultures across African countries overwhelmingly support family life, aligning closely with biblical principles. It is my belief that we, as Africans, should hold in high regard both the gospel and our ancestral religious heritage, which is founded on natural principles, a love for life, and a belief in holiness.*

[@vincentberg1069]

Such a ‘blessing’ causes a number of questions. What is a homosexual couple seeking by asking for a blessing? What is the Church offering in response? What is the Holy Spirit called for and what is exactly being blessed? What is a spiritual purpose of such a ‘blessing’ and what sort of a particular help it intends to provide? Love and acceptance can make miracles of soul transformation, and Pope Francis' vision on the same-sex unions seems to be about love and acceptance. Yet, the same-sex couple blessing would make sense if the Church dumps viewing the same-sex relationship per ser as a sin. Without that, such a 'blessing' appears conflicting and self-contradictory. Faithfully yours, bishop Vincent Berg.
