No wonder it isn't obvious to people which church is the true one. What a stumbling block these divisions are!<br /><br />I just thank God that there are currently only one Patriarch of Constantinople and only one Patriarch of Rome (though his church has mysteriously dropped that title). The more these two men and their respective churches worldwide can build genuine trust and rapport the better. I don't know re-union will ever be possible/the right thing to do, but I pray that Christ will draw all of us to himself, whichever church we have been raised in or joined to.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-73042886598650075.post-68487451585806373732013-06-30T01:21:08.375-05:002013-06-30T01:21:08.375-05:00No, I mean the successor to Sts.
