We all have to remember that the "shadow" is not evil, but....come out of her my people can not be interpreted in any other way...come out of her. Knowing the truth now I have no desire to go back, even for a visit ;D
Sirach:
I went to a service with my 11 year old son last sunday evening...my 14 year old daughter was sitting in the bench behind me with her friends. Around me where people i know...people i know personally...friends....some very dear friends. I listened to the pastor...and you know...although i have learnt a lot in the past few weeks...i told an elder i learnt more in the past few weeks then in 20 years of going to church...THANK YOU LORD...im not ready to let go, and i doubt if i need to. I have let go..spiritually...i came out of her...spiritually, i dont have a doubt about that. But when i leave physically, i cannot reach them, i will loose contact, and with that the possibillity to try and make them think. If they kick me out becos of blindness..i will love them very much...and go, but untill that happens, i will stay, i will be critical, i will write emails, letters, have conversations, throw pearls...becos i cannot judge who are sweins (is this english ?) and who are not.

Sirach, I admire your stance and will pray for you and family.
Act 14:1 (ISV) In Iconium they (Paul and Barnabas) went into the Jewish synagogue and spoke in such a way that a great number of both Jews and Greeks believed.
This happened after other occasions where they were assaulted and abused by the rulers of the synagogues.
I have to agree with you that we don't know who are swine until they prove it. Perhaps even your pastor is struggling, but fearful.
Perhaps they mean nothing, but I have been having dreams of taking this Gospel back into the churches.
I'll pray for you that God will increase your knowledge, faith, and love and give you grace and joy whatever the outcome.

Hmm, I don't think I would have the courage. Maybe I will just send my husband back to do my dirty work :) :) :)
