I'm saying that ALL denominational churches with paid clergy/priests/whatever are ALL incorrect and NOT in accordance with the will of God. Orthodox, Catholic, and all Protestant denominations alike. All of that structure and regulation is obfuscation at best and idolatry at worst and just completely unnecessary.
The ecclesia spoken of by the apostles is NOT what we have now, nor what was intended.
I don't need a priest, pope, or patriarch when I have direct access through Christ. All that other stuff is just a bureaucratic complication that has done very little else than to water down the Gospel. I find it all contemptable.
Why should I not want the falsities to be burned away, both within me and without in the world?
The Body of Christ is NOT led by a man other than Christ himself. There is no place I've seen in scripture that leads me to think otherwise.
