Mattianity

I believe that God has placed a plan within me, which Ephesians 4:12-14 sums up quite nicely:

"To equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ, so that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in deceitful schemes."

My feelings and thoughts make me want to see the whole of Christendom united under one banner, weeding out all the manmade barriers, false teachings and doctrines and providing the best possible organizational witness to the unchristian masses.

This all sounds well and good but I believe that it can be done. I don't believe that God has had any role in dividing the church against itself and taking glory away from Him; it's just humans being petty and self seeking. I believe that men in power have sought to glorify themselves (e.g. Joseph Smith claimed new revelation which goes totally against the Bible, Charles Taze Russel claimed all of Christianity was basically a farce and only JWs have it right) and in doing so have schismed away from the faith, creating endless denominations. In other words, all these denominations are man-made and hence can be man-unmade.

This is a mammoth task; if I start but end up dying before its completion, someone else can take my place (I pray they do). This is why I try to learn as much as possible about the various Christian sects and denominations; I am trying to find the bits of truth present in each and hopefully come up with the most true and logical theology (whoever heard of three being one, each seperate yet fully one; what a load of mystical gibberish [sorry that will be a mini rant for later]).

I want to go to Bible College but I can't see how I can, since I have no money and my Dad and Local Education Authority probably would not pay any fees or support me going to one. I shall have to stick to self teaching, which is alright but nowhere near enough for what I need.

Of course I don't want to start my own denomination off, (lol that would be funny) but a movement of this kind would be fine.

Most of the groundwork has been done, in the guise of various apologetics written by each sect in defence of its practices and beliefs . It's just synthesizing them that's the problem...

Christians are welcome to intercede on my behalf, in fact please do.

Sorry to the nonchristians and the sunday Christians who don't actually care what I said above.
