What Religion Are You?

 If I'm not being too snoopy and out of curiosity, may I ask you what religion you are; for instance, Baptist, Pentecostal, Lutheran, Catholic, Evangelical Free, Christian Reform, New Age or what ever...   

* Raised Catholic, became Agnostic & New Age, was born again at age 16, learned to accept the Bible as being the true and accurate revealed Word of God. I learned a lot from a small Bible Study group ( The Forum ) in Fort Lauderdale that was taught by a former student ( Linda Fontaine ) of Florida Bible College. I currently attend a very contemporary non-denominational church ( www.the360church.org ), and I would call myself a "Fundamental Bible Believing Conservative Christian". I share a lot of doctrinal beliefs with mainstream Baptist, and Evangelical Free.
 
Your "clouds on the horizon"  blog hits the nail right on the head.  I've been in the church since I was confirmed.  My wife was a Catholic and she changed to Lutheran (ELCA) and went through an extensive bible study.  She can ever put Pastors in their place with the knowledge she gained including myself...    The program is called the "Bethel Series"  and is now an International bible study..   So, this was not news to me but certainly something not to be taken lightly.  Sometimes I get the feeling our society is slowly going  down the tube, and our church included.   I think of the prophecy where it talks about the falling away of the very elect, and I can see signs of that happening along with the greed which is also happening with our corporate executives !!

* I sense and sometimes feel despair knowing the fact we live in a fallen evil world that will get worse before it gets better ( and only then because the King of Kings, and Lord of Lords will make it better by His return to rule and reign ).
