    What if Modern Christianity is just the other end of the telephone?

    What doctrine does that change?

    Does your church address racism?

    (what could I have been thinking by conflating “race” with “skin tone”?) I stand corrected. Width and length of nose is clearly the dominant “racial difference” that drives ”racism” in the modern world. :rolleyes:

    Does your church address racism?

    You appear to be looking to start a fight. You asked me: To which I replied that YES, an an all black church, or all white church, or all Mexican church is NOT a picture of heaven because Heaven is not segregated. Is heaven ”all black” or “all white” or “all Mexican”? No, it is not. So your...

    What belief in your denom do you find strange?

    It reminds me of a quote from Winston Churchill: “Democracy is the worst form of government, except for all of the other forms that have been tried.” I understand WHY Baptists hold that position. I even agree with the Baptist position (mixing church and state too often corrupts both). As a...

    What belief in your denom do you find strange?

    “God alone is Lord of the conscience, and He has left it free from the doctrines and commandments of men which are contrary to His Word or not contained in it. Church and state should be separate. The state owes to every church protection and full freedom in the pursuit of its spiritual ends. In...

    Does your church address racism?

    RACISM: 1: a belief that race is a fundamental determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race - Merriam-Webster Dictionary Yes, I view the belief that one skin tone is inherently superior to all others is evil. Feel...

    Does your church address racism?

    Yes. There is nothing in scripture to suggest that Heaven is segregated.

    Does your church address racism?

    OK, so let’s discuss this question head on. Strangely, the answer is “Yes and no”. I cannot remember EVER hearing a sermon about the “evils of racism”. On the other hand, I have heard several times that our congregation is a glimpse of what Heaven will look like. The Pastor is Black, but...

    Does your church address racism?

    There is a row of purple chairs for “honored guests” along the side of the platform (perpendicular to the congregational seating) where the pastor sits. You would probably be an honored guest (due to your need for extra prayer). :)

    Does your church address racism?

    Yes, we have two aisles (dividing the church into three sections). Racist whites are advised to sit together in one of the end sections. Racist blacks are advised to sit together in the opposite end section. Non-racists are invited to sit together in the center section. ;) (that was just a...

    Bible Villains, can you relate?

    Most of the “heroes” in the Bible qualify as villains. Frankly I find it comforting that God could forgive them (and still chose to love them). :( There are few acts in the Bible that I have not either done worse or been fully capable of doing at some point.

    Why did Jesus call them a “Den of Thieves”?

    [Exo 22:25 NASB95] 25 "If you lend money to My people, to the poor among you, you are not to act as a creditor to him; you shall not charge him interest. [Deu 23:19-20 NASB95] 19 "You shall not charge interest to your countrymen: interest on money, food, [or] anything that may be loaned at...

    USA When are they going to de-throne our illegitimate usurping president?

    History question: When was the last time the VP was not the candidate in the next election? President - VP Carter - Mondale Reagan - Bush Bush - Quayle Clinton - Gore Bush - Cheney (did not seek election) Obama - Biden Biden - Harris … so it will be Biden or Harris if either of them wants the...

    USA When are they going to de-throne our illegitimate usurping president?

    I think it almost unimaginable that Joe Biden would seek another 4 years. I doubt his health would support it and leading an organization as diverse as the Democratic Party must be like “herding cats across a river” … something that no one would want to do twice. ;) Let us just hope that the...

    USA When are they going to de-throne our illegitimate usurping president?

    The last election where I thought that the people had a choice between two competent leaders with different visions was 1980’s Carter vs Reagan (Both had proven themselves as governors, were men of personal integrity and differed on their vision of what needed to be done to fix what was wrong)...

    Why is Tobit wrong for teaching a works salvation?

    Do you REALLY see no difference between what Daniel told the King and Tobit teaching that almsgiving will forgive sins?

    Why is Tobit wrong for teaching a works salvation?

    Daniel wanted to keep the laws (to the best of his ability living in exile) and no one criticizes Daniel for keeping the OT dietary law (they praise him for it). Therefore, you might want to consider the possibility that Tobit keeping the law is not what concerns people. In contrast, Daniel...
