The strength does not come from big numbers in one place. Especially when the large group consists of many non believers as many churches do. Otherwise why have an altar call? Also when that large group is in a denomination that is largely apostate such as the main ones I posted earlier...

Except you actually said this in reply to my asking about the church you held us as good. "Look them up" So I did. They were up front about saying they profess an allegiance to the pope. A pope many wondered if he was even a Christian by his actions and words. Now you apparently claim that is a...

OK so you are asking me to look up the Holy Ghost church The first thing that comes up is Catholic. The first one I looked up said this "They have a tender devotion to the Virgin Mary, and profess firm allegiance to the Pope" https://holyghostchurch.org/our-history/ That is your idea of...

Yes, we know Do they have a denomination? I'd like to look up the details about what they do and support Pointing out the glaringly obvious is not looking for fault. Meaningless slogan as you use it. It does not refer to preaching the gospel, studying Scripture, how we should live or anything...

You seem to once again be insulating that worshipping God means going to a government obeying building centred 'church'. I would be happy to look at that claim. What church and denomination do you attend exactly? There are a lot of good banks too. There are also a lot of believers that do not...

Right so we should avoid false churches. They that worship God must do so in Spirit and in truth! So many organizations call themselves a church today. Here is an example of thousands of 'churches' that support things contrary to Scripture...

You would need to know the difference between obeying and knowing God and a false apostate system. Do you?

Now all you need to do is define church. Giving is wonderful! NOT being able to give as the Spirit leads and as Scripture says is another matter. Again, (mis) using the world church to define some building oriented, system pleasing waste of time and money is a game some people love to play. We...

I agree. The church means people. And the link I posted pointed out that a church is NOT free at all to give to the people it deems worthy or missionaries etc etc. There are strict limits on how they spend/give money to under the threat of losing everything if they dare to disobey.

The link itself had many bible passages. Such as not being joined with uunbelievers, etc etc. It is not obeying God wasting time and money is a false system. When a church wants to give unto God that which is God's and Caesar that which is Caesar's they do not take hush money from Caesar that...

Here is a good link that explains why churches should give up the tax status https://nomorecharitablestatus.com/ They sum it up this way " We should not be using money taken from taxpayers who don’t want to help us We should not be giving up control or ownership of the Lord’s money and...

No. I seek out the best How about if you got jail? OK, so some churches did continue. Great. Many did not. Many were arrested and fined for trying to follow the bible. Would it not be better if groups of believers got themselves free of entanglements so they could follow the bible? You seem...

Why did you have a problem being truthful and addressing the issues honesty?

Yet it is a reality that most churches closed and etc as told. Not hard to understand OK, too bad the world is bigger than Georgia. Also, looking up the tax exemption it appears to be federal, no? 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code "A 501(c)(3) organization is a United States corporation...

When the government goes boo the churches jumped into line in case you actually missed the point Pretending you don't know the popular meaning and reason some churches do that eh? Boring The same churches are here that did it. So? Did I ask about 'charities'? Someone suggested they should...

Great, and so they should...so? Does that mean that they must submit to all manner of Satanic practices just to keep their status as tax free etc? There was a preacher in Calgary during covid who was arrested for feeding the poor. In that case, he felt a duty to obey God rather than man. What...

Regardless of how much it would cost the government to feed people and etc the issue is whether a gospel preaching, bible believing, saved group of believers should put their church on the table for the government to chop as desired. If the government says jump, they jump, if they are told no...

1 Corinthians 1:9 God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord Philippians 2:1 If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies 1 John 1:7 But if we walk in the...

So why would one need to have a 'house church' to meet sometimes? What I see as a mess is the Catholic and other church systems. I see it as a mess when some 'church' puts out a rainbow flag etc.

Why? It did not say all believers must meet every week in a multi million dollar building.
