It sure does. A pastor and his or her congregation. A good pastor can change things....but it is still a pipe dream to believe you can control beliefs as a whole.

Nope nope nope Judging who comes to church....dangerous profession Bring them to the Lord....let God have at 'em. In some ways you are back to the Catholic Church who believe they have authority and control over salvation. These couples that live together have not sinned. You stand between them...

Again wrong thinking. Condemning the churches of Christ. Paul worked with the churches. Scolded them when they needed it. And you are right....some are being led by the blind....so is the answer for people of sight to abandon them? If Christ has given you sight....and He has....you are burying...

Listen to the words that I am typing! LOL I support the Catholic Church making marriage a sacrament. I support the Protestant churches making weddings and vows a requirement. In my opinion, weddings are for churches. I do not like the justice of the peace thing. I could be a wedding...

No I do not agree with this. I understand the concept of the church of ones. It is wrong thinking on several levels. 1. Certainly you understand that no apostle would preach that everyone should go off and start their own beliefs and singular church. 2. We are told to assemble and worship the...

In our religious society....yes. Legally there is something called a common law wife. It is the sin of judging out of ignorance that is the problem. Deep topic because there is a social / religious belief....a hatred of sex....almost a separate religion. An infatuation of what other people are...

And there is the rub... Making up theology to control people's actions. Bad practice because you end up losing creditability. Telling lies to control people is not the way to teach Christianity. Stop that! It will make you go blind! This desire to control does not work out. This type of...

This concern can drive you nuts....It encompasses so many weaknesses that you could not go out in public or talk to anyone and have live in a closet.

First off fornication...like the words Trinity and the phrase Original Sin are campaign slogans that are not in the Bible...coined by men to promote false beliefs. The word fornication is not in the scriptures. It is from the Latin Vulgate and retro-fitted for the Bible to promote false beliefs...

Hey! I am with stupid! But I do not pay any attention to him. We live among the stupid. Living for the approval of men is wrong on several levels.

There can be no wrong. Hands down what you are concerned about is not biblical. Judging people by your own rules. Most of the people that had wedding and vows in the biblical era were Pagans. That was their custom. Eventually the Jews and Christians adopted their customs. That is why there are...

Setting yourself above Christ? Was Christ a sinner? Do not let anyone judge you on what you eat or drink. How do you win at chess? You have to know the rules. A lot of Christians that do not know the rules or the Spirit of Christ or Christianity.

A stab at humor.... Appearances.....you have a concern.....about what people think? Christ could not be concerned about such things...."The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Here is a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners.’" Can you imagine the gossiping...

Death do you part....gun cleaning accident? LOL

The answer is no. It does not matter if they are 30 or 70. Hypothetical but keep in mind that the Bible, Old or New Testament does not have a requirement for weddings or vows. That requirement is made by the Protestants denomination in the 16th century so that means a lot of marriages without...

Alarming number of Covid patients in St. Louis hospitals had received vaccinations. Percentage of fully vaccinated COVID patients rising in St. Louis-area hospitals

It is a crying shame when Putin sounds more Christian and American than our government.

LOL Waiting with baited breath....who are you call Lord....scripture please. Who Yahweh was referring to, are not named or described. For this reason this scripture and scriptures like it are open to the most imaginative minds....usually fertile

LOL belly roll....then that might be your problem with the Bible. Most of that was Bible verses. LOL Ya know, the scriptures did not originally have chapter and verse numbers. They numbered them so people could take it slow. The study of Beliefs....Truths....Facts As far as convictions or...

The New Testament Yeshua gives us a clearer explanation of the oneness concept. Speaking to God the Father (He is not talking to Himself) Yeshua says this about the concept of one...John 17:22 “And the glory which to them; that they may be one just as We are one.” Because Yeshua says “just as”...
