Ecclesia semper reformanda est

I'll talk to you guys again real soon.

As always, Semper Reformanda.

What do Christians think about schism? Are the reformed churches schismatic within the US context specifically? What constitutes a true church? And a topic related to this, a bit distinct but related to this, is to what extent should the church be reforming? Or we could say always reforming.

To what extent does Semper Reformanda bear into reformed churches? Is the reformed church now more or less reformed than the churches of years past? These are just a few of the topics we're going to try our best to tackle today on The Magistrate.

I'm Josh Howard, joined as always by my host, co-host, James Baird.

James, good to see you, brother.

Yeah.

The, the whole, you know, I just saw it just the other day, somebody was bringing up that old, the old apologetic, uh, petard, I guess that, that, that kind of, you know, lob across the bout Christians that there's, I think it's like 48,000 denominations or whatever that overinflated bloated number is.

Um, so that's, that's a bit off, but, uh, think for many christians that you should be working toward greater unity um this has been this has been something that i've heard a lot of discussion about in reform circles presbyterian circles um nate park churches who labor alongside one another greater unity i think is something that we should be sympathetic towards so sure let's do this let's take this conversation And pause for the Semper Reformanda conversation.

Let's do it.
