    Does the denomination matter?

    I don't believe in any denomination. I see it this way; God brings his church together and organizes it. I am against denominations and man's way of organizing things, but I see that it serves a purpose. I am definitely not against the PEOPLE in it, don't get me wrong, and don't see myself as...

    Why are you still here?

    Hi Canuck, I'm new and I'm not sure what you believe and what the history is on this site... But I'll just throw my two cents in there anyways :) I don't believe you can do what you want and end up in heaven and I don't believe just 'being christian' by beliefs gets you to heaven. I am here...

    How to choose a correct church to go to?

    What I was saying is that I referred to both a verse in Zechariah and a verse in Proverbs. :) God bless you

    Moral Argument

    I say yes! There is, so to speak, an 'objective moral'. I would say it is resumed in "love your neighbor as yourself". It's the Good Samaritan, helping those in need. A modern version of the good Samaritan parable would replace the good Samaritan by... The muslim ditch-digger (I've seen this...

    How to choose a correct church to go to?

    And yet many who have read the Bible, both in times past and long ago and today, are not spiritual. What I'm proposing is that we change the question: it's not 'what would Jesus do?' but rather 'what is Jesus doing?'. Jesus is already doing something and we need to get on with that. When we try...

    How to choose a correct church to go to?

    Yes! Jesus Christ is the living word! The Lord can make the words come alive to us as we read them, I have experienced this and so have many that I know. The would be the Lord speaking to you through the written word.

    How to choose a correct church to go to?

    I appreciate the grace in your posts, sister. :) No, that is not what I am saying. I absolutely believe the NT is inspired by our Lord and full of his truth. BUT when Paul is speaking he is in fact talking about the Old Testament. What I am doing is pointing to the errors of the Pharisees...

    How to choose a correct church to go to?

    I like your approach! Thanks for sharing :) Don't get me wrong, brothers and sisters, I'm not saying studying is bad. What I'm saying is this; you can't follow what YOUR own mind and YOUR own understanding gets from the scriptures. You have to follow the Spirit. God's ways are higher than our...

    How to choose a correct church to go to?

    PS. To veteran. When you hold the Bible, are you holding Jesus? It might be important to note that when Paul writes that to Timothy (see veteran's post), he's refering to the Old Testament! The NT wasn't put together yet and it was just a bunch of letters and books scattered around ;) When...

    How to choose a correct church to go to?

    Yes! Thanks Holy Pursuit, you said it better than I could. If we are trying to know where we should go, should we not pray? Is not the Spirit leading? The word is very important... But if you go by the word, you might just read "Go to a street called Straight" this morning.... And then try and...

    Why do you think God is severe?

    I think God really is severe! He's not a respecter of persons and it applies to all... When sheep stray, one thing that shepherds can do is break their legs and carry them on their back, then when they are healed they do not stray anymore. I think it's the same with our Lord... Only in a far...

    How to choose a correct church to go to?

    Hmm... Interesting... I was thinking about what you said and I'm just wondering, wouldn't it be easy to fool ourselves and go to a church that teaches it how WE understand it? You know, if WE are the ones doing the choosing, isn't the church going to be, so to speak, in OUR image? I think that's...

    How to choose a correct church to go to?

    If I had one thing to say to someone who wanted to know which church to go to I would say... Pray! :) I think if we follow our own opinions, beliefs, and doctrinal stances we end up just going where WE think we should go... But if we seek the Lord and he brings us where HE wants us, THEN we'll...
