Not only that but the company which was such a better place to work for now gradually starts having problems too. <br /><br />The problems eventually grow to a point and make the work unliveable and so they leave and find another employer who has a much better work place environment.<br /><br /><br />In my view some people go through the experience of "the grass is greener on the other side of the fence" and don't even realize how they are missing such a basic CHILDHOOD lesson.<br /><br />NorbertAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1081631727760066049.post-7494426968322164892011-07-26T23:53:25.186-05:002011-07-26T23:53:25.186-05:00Hello again, author.
Any truly converted person s...Hello again, author.<br /><br />Any truly converted person should be able to see that governing has to be a doctrine for the COG--whitout it there would be chaos--which is what we see in some cases. As you point out there is no real unity among these organizations and very little within any of them. "UCG will continue to change as time goes on." This is probably true, however COGWA is already doing the same thing. they seem to be running on "the people choose" and have not yet lived up to their claimed commission of preaching the Gospel as a high priority. if written material was what God intended to get the Gospel out--then all they need to do is mail out NT Bibles, with emphasis on reading the four gospels.<br /><br />The EditorMTCOGSMnoreply@blogger.com
