Fascinating. Sooooo the men of your denomination when they read the Didache they don't see the Trinity in the statement "father, Son, holy spirit"? If that is not a Trinity....then what is? And since the Trinity is NOT mentioned in chapter 10 that cancels out what is said in chapter 7...

That is fascinating. I love to learn about other denominations.....Thank you.

You are absolutely right Matthew. The term tithe (10%) is not found in the New Testament but it is far from silent on the topic of money. Jesus talks about it at great length as does the Apostle Paul. So for you to say that you are "free of obligation to give anything to anyone" is not biblical...

If you are offended at the Truth then that is your problem.....

If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.” Whoever gives to the poor will lack nothing, but those who close their eyes to poverty will be cursed. Give not with a grudging heart.

This is the verse that I recall. 1 Corinthians 16:1-4

Thanks Matthew, The mandate to give is clear in Scripture however You seem to be correct. The more I read on this, $cripture doe$ not flat out $ay one need$ to give money. The poor old lady at the Temple gave money but that seems to be the only mention of giving money to the Church. Also, Jesus...

Thanks Marks, Scripture does elude to giving to the Church (temple) but it also says give to the needy in Matthew 6. I'm not really sure if that is talking about tithes. I suspect it is seperate of tithing. Soooo in hindsight it does strongly suggest giving tithes to The Church only..... so I...

Hey JP, Where does Scripture say that tithe's are only to be given to a Church? Curious mary

Hmmmmm......Here is what I found about tithing. Malachi 3:10-12; bring the full amount of your tithes to the temple..... Abraham, our father in faith, paid tithe to Melchizedek the king of Salem and a priest of the highest God; As Abraham was coming back from the battle in which he defeated the...

Ummmmmm.....Because Scripture is the Truth and if anyone speaks against the Truth it is our duty as Christians to defend the Truth...... always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect, hold firm to...

Continue to lie to yourself....kiddo

Thanks for your opinion Jane. You may have a problem with repetitive prayer but God doesn't. I will stick with what the bible tells me, not you: •In Daniel 3:57 onwards, the words: “Bless the Lord, praise and exalt Him above all forever” are repeated multiple times. •In Psalms 136, “God’s love...

Thanks for asking Jane. I love to share our Christian history. The confusing part about your question is that you reject early christian writings because that is....according to you....when Christians started moving away from the teachings of Christ. Thats when the apostasy started. Sooooooo I...

Thank you for articulating/clarifying your opinion. The Church teaches that immersion in water is preferred for baptism. However baptism ALSO can mean sprinkling or dipping which doesn't involve submersion. For some there are medical reasons not to be fully submerged in water. Should they be...

It's weird that you link a website that shows no confliction in Catholic teaching and then suggest I am conflicted......that is just....WEIRD! Does your cult have a website or book or ANYTHING to document what it teaches?

Lol...I'm not conflicted. Protestantism teaches that what you currently know may or may not be true. Protestantism teaches that no one church (denomination) or man knows the truth. Since you are Protestant you are conflicted since your beliefs (truths) can change on a whim. If YOU decide that a...

Yup, and that's good enough for me also. Casting out demons in his name doesn't equal religious freedom kiddo. That is an ability to do something in His name. Twisting Scripture to make it say what our itching ears want to hear is not religious freedom. What you believe is opposite of what...

No, I'm laughing at you because you have deceived yourself into thinking that God has given YOU understanding on how to properly interpret Scripture into the Truth. Show me in Scripture where God has given each individual man the ability to do that and I will join your cult. Otherwise I will...

I think that's what confused me (no hyphen)....thank you.
