Re: Приветствие! Welcome!

On July 15, 2007, the head of the International Union of Evangelical Christian Baptist Churches, Gennady Kryuchkov, died in Tula at the age of 81 after a heart attack a year and a half ago.

Is the "International Union of Evangelical Christian Baptist Churches" the same as "Union of Evangelical Christian Baptists" (alias "All-Union of Evangelical Christian Baptists", link to Encyclopaedia Britannica) formed in 1944? Or do you have two similarly named unions of baptists in a country that's mostly Eastern Orthodox?

I mean that in the United States, same-sex marriage is allowed and in some places even drugs are allowed for free use.

See? And you claimed that we Christians were not persecuted here.

And why did you remove the links to our Brotherhood and slander us?
here's what was on the links:
===================================
Modernity
Even after 1991, the ECB remained an extremely conservative and isolated movement. In the 1990s, converts began to come to ECB communities as a result of preaching on the streets, in schools, and in hospitals, and distributing free ECB Bibles and magazines in evangelistic tents. The ECB is engaged in missionary activities in most regions of Russia, there is even a national mission among the peoples of the Far North.


The "initiators" have a distrust and dislike of Western liberal and modernist evangelical missionaries and are afraid to send their representatives to study abroad. In their opinion, Western Protestants are associated with a depraved culture. At the same time, Initiativniki cooperates with some conservative Western organizations, in particular, with the German mission Fridstimme, which invites them to its conferences and supplies them with literature.


The ECB MSC communities still do not accept state registration. "A hallmark of the followers of the sun remained and remains a waiver of any contacts with the state and intervention in any political issues, because, in their opinion, it is sure to put believers before the problem of the subordination of iniquity. If not godless, the requirements of the state, " - says religious scholar R. N. Lunkin [9].

In January 2008, the Council of Churches appointed Nikolai Stepanovich Antonyuk, who represented the Caucasian Association of the Moscow Orthodox Church, as interim chairman. On 10 October 2009, he was elected Chairman of the ECB's 6th MSC Congress. [11]

Re: Приветствие! Welcome!

I am afraid that I do not understand this statement: "We thank God before what was heard from the United States is not and I hope it will not come." Can you please explain a bit further, to clear up my confusion? I don't understand what the has to do with your situation, and why you hope "it will not come". Thank you kindly, Dear.

There might be something lost in translation, Sister Isabella, as our new guest here doesn't actually speak Proper American (not even the British English!) and is trusting Google demons to translate.

Evangelical Christians-Baptists in Russia do not practice yoga and other occultism. We are the direct descendants of some of those Christians-Baptists, which took its succession from the Christian Anabaptists of Holland/ The Netherlands in the 17th century, although the Baptists came to Russia only in the 19th century.
We thank God before what was heard from the United States is not and I hope it will not come.
It's just that we don't have time to start such heresies, because from time to time we had persecutions against the Church.
================================================== ===

I myself believed in Christ quite early. You can say that in my childhood, but I joined the Church at the age of 22, that is, about 20 years ago.
One night I went to a man to ask for water, and he turned out to be a Christian Baptist and along with ordinary water, a share of Living Water.

Oh, I see that our messages have crossed, dear Mr. Alex. I was not aware that you were posting a message at the time when I was writing one. I do thank you for your interesting explanation, although I am afraid that I do not understand this statement: "We thank God before what was heard from the United States is not and I hope it will not come." Can you please explain a bit further, to clear up my confusion? I don't understand what the has to do with your situation, and why you hope "it will not come". Thank you kindly, Dear.

Re: Приветствие! Welcome!

Oh, my! I see that I have made a mistake for the way in which I addressed you, dear Mr. Alex, and for that, I do so apologize -- unreservedly.

Now, then, when I was asking about credentials and such -- concerning your "union" church -- I was hoping that you would answer my questions in a gracious manner. Heaven knows that I had no idea that you would submit "homegrown porn" as your response; although, I am most grateful to our very keen moderators that this blasphemous rubbish was caught before damage was caused!

I do hope that your time with us will result in the spiritual growth that you so desperately need, Dear, and that you will come to know the one true salvation, as found through the shed of the one and only , . You are in the right place to find such an essential blessing, and we, the servants of the , are most willing to help you.

Why am I being warned here? I'm sorry, but it's a fact that I'm a man. I am a father of 4 children. I don't understand why anyone would think I was a woman.


What kind of porn? I post any porn.

Greetings, and , dear Miss Alex. We are so pleased that you have found , in this vast interwebs galaxy.

Your introductory message is quite interesting -- and remarkable. I wonder if I might ask about this union of churches, of which you are a member. Do they preach only the Gospel of the , as found within the blessed pages of the , or does this union also permit teachings from other religions? For example, does it offer any support for what is commonly referred to as "Chrislam"? Do they give classes in: yoga; transcendental meditation; how to walk a labyrinth? Has anyone ever encouraged you to play cymbals, or to burn incense?

I must mention, too, that we would love it if you would supply us with the other information that is requested at the top of our Introduction Forum, which is:

The introduction forum Attention Unsaved Trash: This the ONLY subforum you can start threads in. Here is where you introduce yourself. Tell us what church you go to and what your favorite Bible verse is and how you came to find Jesus.

Re: Приветствие! Welcome!

Sorry, I haven't figured out how the site works yet.

It's very simple, really. Everything that we say is supported by the Holy Bible, and we expect from you the same.

I realize that in your country you might not have the access to the Bible, but luckily for you, it's available online for free:

Thank you for your message. The fact that you can't write in Russian is not terrible. I read everything through a translator. I write through it, so I probably can't understand everything on your forum and I can't always convey my thoughts to my interlocutors.


so I apologize in advance for my misunderstandings and mistakes.
