A mere ripple in the space time linear reality.

But did you read the thread? Nobody ever reads the threads any more.

[quote name='The Catechism of Pope St. Pius X']5 Q. Where are the members of the Church to be found?
A. The members of the Church are found partly in heaven, forming the Church Triumphant; partly in purgatory, forming the Church Suffering; partly on earth, forming the [b]Church Militant[/b].[/quote]

[Didymus]

I have a song Im writin called 'Church Militant'

I always thought it was worded like TMore's catechism quote.

I am just offended that with all these board changes Dust STILL hasn't come up with an icon just for me.

[quote name='cmotherofpirl' post='2023' date='Jul 7 2003, 11:36 AM']WELL we are in a war, the enemy is everywhere, the King has not yet returned, and battle not yet won. And while we know the end will be triumphant, we must work out our salvation in fear and trembling, we are not personally there yet. So I think militant is fairly accurate.[/quote]


Amen!

If my etymology isn't mistaken, "crusader" just means "one of the cross" or "one relating to the cross." In that sense, all of the Church - Triumphant, Dormant, and Militant - are crusaders. And given the definitions that have been provided for militant, I think Church Militant is apt, accurate, and adequate for we on this side of the Pale.

[picchick]

Militant brings to mind the fact that I am soldier for Christ. I am willing to go into battle against the enemy and even risk my life doing so.

And anyway...aren't we suppose to hate the enemy, satan?
