Agreed. And Jesus is the only true friend I've had for the last couple of years.

It's funny how when u all of a sudden have money, people you never really talked to before want to be your "friend". It's a curse, exactly like the bible says.

Re: New to the forum

Wow!! So many questions!

A little about myself:

I am a 32 year old widow. We had no children, as my husband died before God blessed us with any. I attend Guts Ministries here in Tulsa, and while I don't have a single "favorite" verse, I do think it would be difficult to decide on only one.

As far as cooking and cleaning... I am good at both.

Brenda,
Welcome to God's Favorite Church™! You will find here the best teaching from True Christians™ in the world. I am happy that you are a good cook and you seem to have other good qualities as well.

I am wondering a bit about the "Guts Ministries" you referred to. Why is it called "guts?" Why not "Innards" or "Organs" or even "Intestines?"

Also, does your church preach and teach only from the AV1611 King James Bible? I can't find that anywhere on the interwebs.

I do like what your church does with the "Nightmare." I say, if they are acting up, scare the Hell out of them! I would certainly not keep children under 12 from the truth about their lives without Christ. In fact, as soon as a child is able to say "NO!" I would take them to the Nightmare.

Otherwise, I am concerned about who does the hiring for your staff. The staff seems to run strongly toward what the kids today call "hotties" with sraight hair equally divided between blonde and brunette, and "hipster" guys. I suspect that pastor Bill chooses the females and "Pastor Sandy" chooses the males. I'd look into that if I were you. I'm afraid you may be part of some notorious sex cult.

Which bring me to another question. If the Pastor's wife is also a "Pastor" I do not believe you belong to a Biblical church.

1 Timothy 3:1-5 (AV1611 King James Bible)


1This is a true saying, if a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work.
2A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach;
3Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous;
4One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity; 5(For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)

Titus 1


1Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God's elect, and the acknowledging of the truth which is after godliness;
2In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began;
3But hath in due times manifested his word through preaching, which is committed unto me according to the commandment of God our Saviour;
4To Titus, mine own son after the common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ our Saviour.
5For this cause left I thee in Crete, that thou shouldest set in order the things that are wanting, and ordain elders in every city, as I had appointed thee:
6If any be blameless, the husband of one wife, having faithful children not accused of riot or unruly.
7For a bishop must be blameless, as the steward of God; not selfwilled, not soon angry, not given to wine, no striker, not given to filthy lucre;
8But a lover of hospitality, a lover of good men, sober, just, holy, temperate;
9Holding fast the faithful word as he hath been taught, that he may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers.
10For there are many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers, specially they of the circumcision:
11Whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre's sake.


Now see that both bishop and elder are the same in these texts. There were no "bishops" as we know them today in the early church. That abomination is a perversion of Scripture by that Great Whore of Babylon, the Roman "Catholic" Church. Elders and bishops in the New Testament are Pastors, just as "saints" in the New Testament are simply True Christians™ (look it up.)

So I would believe that any woman may be a Pastor as long as she can be the "husband of one wife," which means that no woman can Biblically be a pastor of a church.

If you have more questions about these issues, I am at your disposal because I believe you may have the Spirit of God about you. I don't know that you are Saved™ but you may yet be.

In Christ
Warren

Amen, Brenda!
Perhaps you might find a way to tithe that newfound wealth (blessed to you by God) to Landover Baptist Church.

Re: New to the forum

Wow. That's a lot of questions, many of which I do not have the answer to.

I don't know why it's called "guts". It's a non denom church full of bikers and tattood people usually. They have a biker rally every year that thousands of people come from all over the country to attend.

I was raised going to a Baptist Tabernacle in a small town about 30 minutes away. I still visit it once a month to get my proper teaching, but I go to guts because my husband was a member, and I go in his memory.

I trust you know that tattoos are a serious sin.

Do you have any markings or flesh piercings of your own?

Re: New to the forum

Welcome Brenda.
I see you are already answering many of the questions put here by our regular Church-goers.
Just remember, we don't allow certain people to post here.
Especially No Vagrants.

Re: New to the forum

Brenda, Welcome to our Godly forum! I congratulate you on finding one of the very few truly Christian sites on the Internets.

How did you find us? We like to know how our little beacon of Truth and Holiness shines through the filth and secularism that chokes the Information Super Highways on the World Wide Web.

Was it a search engine like the Google?

[BrendaFritz]

Re: New to the forum

I have no tattoos, but my ears are pierced.

I don't know what you mean by "vagrant" but I am not one.

And I googled "Christian church forum" and this one was the second to come up.

The second one!?! Which godless den of iniquity, peddling its lies and snake oil to the gullible came up first?

Re: New to the forum

Forumchristian.org came up first, but I didn't even see a "forum" like this one when I clicked on it, so I immediately clicked back, and onto this forum... And here I am!!

Wonderful! Although the Google is more often used by perverts to search for kiddie porn, it can occasionally be used for Godly purposes.

Bless you Brenda for honoring God by not seraching for something perverted with the Google! Glory!

Re: New to the forum

I checked (practicing my computer skills !!, Praise the Lord!!) and the first listing is Forum Christian Church. It appears it came up first more due to specificity of the search/matching engine than by any deviousness from the Papists or the Joos.

I did note on their web page (btw, I do not have the demonic flash player just so I would NOT see their graven images) they are ecumenicalists !!

So be forewarned and forearmed if you visit their, as was so correctly described above, den of inequity.
