Re: Zachariah

I only know what the bible teaches me

And what does the Bible teach you, Zach?

Re: Zachariah

I never said you guys don't. It's obvious you all follow the bible to the very best of your ability...

You just did, by putting the qualifier "to the best of your ability" in there.

Sneaky.

So then, where does "the best of their ability" lead them to disregard the Bible?

Re: Zachariah

Then point out where we True Christians™ have not followed the Bible.

I never said you guys don't. It's obvious you all follow the bible to the very best of your ability and I find that admirable. You have much to be proud of!

Then you agree with the True Christians(tm), and this church is therefore perfect in your eyes. You must be so happy, your search has finally ended.

Re: Zachariah

How so?



Oh, I get it. You alone know what Christianity really means, the other two billion false christians (and the True Christians™ here who actually follow the Bible 100%) are wrong.

...Just because there is no church on the planet that truly is right in all things, doesn't mean I should give up on my Christian faith...

No, everyone here obviously has NOT. That is why they are here!

Landover Baptist Church follows every part of the Bible, as written. As does my congregation, Second Baptist.

Re: Zachariah

An imperfect church would not satisfy any deity worthy of the name, so why bother in the first place?

Re: Zachariah

There is no such thing as a perfect church out there, so you make do with what you have.

Re: Zachariah

Why would you want to be a part of a church that doesn't believe and follow what the Holy Bible says?

He asked me what my church believes. So I told him. He didn't ask me what the bible says.

Re: Zachariah

So if the formal opinion of your so called Christian Missionary Alliance was that you should let the gaywise into your house, eat off your plates and sleep in your beds I suppose that would be okay, too?

A Christian believes what he is told by the Bible, not a bunch of flim flam artists sat behind a desk in City Hall.

Wake up!

Re: Zachariah

It is the formal opinion of the Christian Missionary Alliance that homosexuality is a sin. And you are correct, they do not allow foolish women to take the pulpit. They also do not allow foolish men to take the pulpit either.

Re: Zachariah

Oh how delightfully vague! Please tell me they do respect and follow the Holy Bible, including God's Word that says, very specifically:

Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law.
1st Corinthians 14:34

But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.
For Adam was first formed, then Eve.
And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.
Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.
1st Timothy 2:12-15

Yes my church acknowledges Paul's opinion on women in the church.
