Reformed, I like you and agree with you. I know Mjrhealth isn't innocent either... But this type of posting should stop.

The Church meets in a church. That's what Paul said! Yes, it can be a private home, a Grove or a bar. It can also be a temple. Jesus or Paul or Peter spoke, Church as in session. And there were rules to follow and there was a government involved. Stick around, and I will give evidence.

It's true that they met in various places and didn't have a "church building". But they still went to Church. Whatever the appointed as the meeting place was the Church. Before I offer my reasoning, let's consider why they didn't have a Church building. It's an obvious answer if you know...

Alright... I can accept that. Good call... The Roman Epistle is primarily to the gentiles as it explains some things to them concerning their acceptance into God's fold. But there isn't two sets of rules. In Christ there is neither Greek or Jew. For those who may not have followed Mjrhealth...

Of course they are, but I don't know if you have followed the conversation closely, and thus I don't think you understand my point.

It is wrong to use scripture to Trump scripture. It's not a card game where your hand is higher than another. Both John and Paul also spoke of attending Church.

Faith comes by hearing and you can't hear without a preacher. That's what Paul told the Romans so it wasn't stuff for Jewish people.

My point is that if your are going to talk about Jesus assembling on hill tops, beaches, bars, etc... Then don't leave out the fact that he taught daily in the Temple. It's just many of the verses that endorse going to Church.

It's childish nonsense and I seriously doubt anyone would disagree with me on that.

Yes he did...know where else? Matthew 26:55 KJV In that same hour said Jesus to the multitudes, Are ye come out as against a thief with swords and staves for to take me? I sat daily with you teaching in the temple, and ye laid no hold on me. Jesus was teaching DAILY in the Temple, which the...

I utterly disagree with Mjrhealth on this subject, but this [removed] has to stop. It's really hard to support a side that resorts to [removed] this.

Strong's Greek: 1577. ἐκκλησία (ekklésia) -- an assembly, a (religious) congregation No, it means an assembly. They were assembled. It does not mean "the called out ones" in a scattered sense. There may be called out ones in Chicago, New York, London, Paris and Jerusalem. They are all the...

Well, thanks! I appreciate that! Very unfortunate, for sure. I absolutely agree. On paper there is nothing wrong with large Churches. Jesus was known to draw crowds of 15,000 men (not including women and children). The problem is it's hard to keep a crowd like that if you are preaching...

Well that sounds nice and all... But looking at it carefully it looks alot like Judges 17:6.

Well that is simply wrong. Yes, the Body of Christ is the Church, but that does not mean they can't "go to Church". Individuals are not "the Church". It's one body with many members. And at set times the many members gather together. When that happens, they go to church. 1 Corinthians...

There is a difference between a father disciplining a daughter and what's going on here. There may be folks with more experience on this board (and that should be honored) but none of us are pastors over a flock. Yet I agree with the point you are trying to make. That correction may be...

And here is where the conversation was hijacked!

It may be said, and might be true, but that quote isn't in the Bible. Certainly he loves sinners, otherwise he wouldn't love any of us. I suppose it is also true he hates sin, but that's an incomplete synopsis. Sure, he hates sin, but he also forgives them, he doesn't impute them, he covers...

Yes, you do. That's not a popular opinion these days, but it is Biblical when you consider the whole of the scripture. It's tough because so many churches compromise the Word. They are more about warm bodies in the pews than they are about truth. It's tough, but believers belong in...

Just watched the video myself... Gee.. why didn't I do that before? But no, still have no idea what a woke woman is if is not simply a feminist liberal. Id date a real feminist who believes if she works she should earn equal pay. She should get equal status as a citizen. She should not be...
