Once when I was discussing with my son how things were going in the Royal Ranger class he helps out with at church, he mentioned a strange thing that one of the leaders told the class of boys. The leader told the boys that the Bible says God breathed into Adam the breath of life but that it doesn’t say he breathed the breath of life into Eve [if I’m relaying this correctly].

I’m really closer to the Body of CHRIST in the Bible, than I am to any “church” or denomination.

Sanctified – set apart for an intended purpose by the one setting it apart.
2Co 7:1 Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.

As compared to what?
Why do you ask?
The Church of God is right Hallelujah To The LAMB!!!!#
It seems to me that you never openly discuss anything unless it is your own personal opinions. Please answer Misters Manning and Ridgeways questions.
if the COG is right then all the other denominations must be wrong?
You still haven’t answered. Mr. Manning & Pastor Ridgeway’s questions.
Hmm, why did they take my question off? Did I say somethin wrong?
‘Discernment isn’t knowing the difference between right and wrong; It is knowing the difference between right and almost right.’
It does say Church of God
