    God choose Trump to Save the USA from Destruction.

    I know one thing that is without question. Trump has saved the USA from the abortion holocaust that the Democrats promised.

    WOULD YOU LIKE TO JOIN A NEW TESTAMENT CHURCH?

    As I have and am studying the life of the NTC ATM, my very distinct impression is that they treated everyone the same.

    WHY IS THE CHURCH GOING OUT BACKWARD?

    Everyone is a volunteer helper if they are a believer as there is no pacifists in the kingdom of God. So if Jesus said he appoints and anoints Shepherds and you say he didn't I guess he must not have appointed apostles, evangelist, teachers or prophets.

    WHY IS THE CHURCH GOING OUT BACKWARD?

    I do not look for ministry found in the KJV. I prefer to use the original Greek which is much more accurate than the KJV. And the modern versions have not inserted shepherd as it is there in the original Greek.

    WHY IS THE CHURCH GOING OUT BACKWARD?

    Not as I understand Greek. A shepherd is a shepherd. He might be an Elder as well.

    WHY IS THE CHURCH GOING OUT BACKWARD?

    No one tells me he is my shepherd. Unless I see there is an anointing for that ministry I let it go through to the keeper.

    WHY IS THE CHURCH GOING OUT BACKWARD?

    The original Greek is not a biased phony modern version and it is translated as shepherd in that one.

    WHY IS THE CHURCH GOING OUT BACKWARD?

    It is unfortunate that the church is a parody of the real deal. In New Testament times, there was only one church in each town evidenced by the fact that the church was called the church at Corinth, the church at Ephesus, the Church at Ladocia, the church at Galatia, and so on. You can just...

    WHY IS THE CHURCH GOING OUT BACKWARD?

    From my observations, most churches have a "pastor" but very few have the other four ministries and as a result, are not healthy for the simple reason that if Christ gave five ministries it was for a reason which we have chosen to ignore. So the churches that are not healthy are those without...

    Why do they need to feed his sheep if he is the only shepherd?

    WHY IS THE CHURCH GOING OUT BACKWARD?

    Actually it says not many should be called teachers.

    WHY IS THE CHURCH GOING OUT BACKWARD?

    I am not trying to be contentious but in Ephesians 4:11 we are told that the risen Christ has given us the ministries of Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Teacher and Shepherd. That being the case, I expect to see the ministry of shepherds alive and well in the church if it is doing its job properly.

    How should the church service be structured

    I used to be a member of Blackburn Baptist which is now Crossways. It is only a very mild version of charismatic in that they do not deny the baptism of the Spirit and in the house meetings, you could speak in tongues. Whilst I was there I introduced them to water baptism in the name of Jesus...

    I am sorry but what you have said makes no sense to me.
