Acts 2.42 activities are by far the best blueprint and guide to local church activities.

@Stan B Of course, some ppl even find condoms problematic.

@Heart2Soul In some ways quite similar to the Ephesians prayer.

Philippians 1.9-11: "And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment; That ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ. Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by...

@Heart2Soul PS: Paul has a similar on in Philippians; I'll post it...
