I really enjoy this thread. The man who gives away multi lingual books seems innocent - but he is not all he seems. Remember Fahrenheit 451!

To say you will meet Christ absolves all responsibilities for trying to act like Christ.
Everyone a Christ.


That confuses them

It might - but you sound like a clasical antinomian: Antinomianism - Wikipedia

I was given a Potters House leaflet in Streatham outside the Odeon yesterday.
These people have been around for years - and have been accused of being a cult.
Looks like the Streatham group is hosted online via the central organisation in Arizona - and they have a grievance procedure, which kind of amazed me.

They also have a "moral policy" for the pastors:

Meetings are in the Gracefield Gardens Health Centre prop. Guys St Thomas's NHS Foundation Trust.
One hopes that accepting rent from this American church of damaged people does not lead to further referrals (which cannot be accomodated) at South London and Maudsley NHS Fioundation Trust.

Quite near you in Burton Road is a Swedenborgian Church. They probably believe even the Devil deserves a pleasant afterlife!

Michael Church, Burton Road, was erected in 1892 to serve as a school and place of worship. It was constructed for 'The Academy' movement of the 'Church of the New Jerusalem', which followed the precepts of Emmanuel Swedenborg, 1688 -1772. The church played an important part during World War Two serving as a focus for those of its congregation who served with the Allied forces. Following the war the congregation grew steadily through the 1950s and continues to serve South London and to maintain close links with other congregations in Britain and the United States.Digital copies of photographs donated by Rev. Frederick Elphick.

One hopes that the Hebrew Israelites - whether in Windrush Square or anywhere else in London - can assist on this ...

Hopefully, members of the Hebrew Israelite cult - whether in Windrush Square or anywhere else - will be able to explain this:
