    Which denomination?

    LOL I can see why! I hope you took pictures!

    Which denomination?

    It would be difficult to shepherd from afar which is a major problem with mega churches. We had one here that started in a living room, grew to 20,000+ members and folded last year. Too much wanting of more and more power. Sad

    It was an exclusive celebration, attendees: Jethro :D LOL

    Which denomination?

    I know of several churches who started out this way, outgrew the living room, moved to a larger place, then a building. When they were smaller it was feasible to have questions answered, similar to a Bible study, however when numbers start increasing to 100's, it no longer is. What would be...

    Which denomination?

    I absolutely agree! I just don't think a person should write off those who do chose to attend one of them. I am one who does not attend, I can't find one. However I am involved in community ministries where 10-50 of those churches are also involved. The Body together accomplishes a whole bunch...

    This verse is consistent with Matthew 18:15-17. Scripture about church discipline.

    Which denomination?

    Plural beacons create the city on a hill. I am not advocating anyone attend organized denominations. I am advocating being the Body of Christ regardless of denominations. Many people who are anti organized religion usually are trying to do it solo which is also not walking in Truth. The Body is...

    Which denomination?

    Another way to express my point would be to say the church is a city on a hill, regardless of denominational preference, even non denominations are denominations. It's very difficult to be a city when you're solo. I say, cross the denominational lines and let's start being a city on a hill! Is...

    Which denomination?

    But that is the church, where 2 or 3 are gathered. What if that 2nd person disagrees with your end time view, does that make it any less of church?

    Which denomination?

    Hi Gary, I agree with you, many people believe all that is told to them without analyzing and double checking, this is apparent with politics, too. More mature believers have learned the importance of chewing on the meat and spitting out the bones. If we completely avoid where the church is...

    Which denomination?

    Imo, many churches are as you have described. They are only practical in the performances on a Sunday morning and many lack the depth of teaching discipleship. Anyone can state a spot on creed but actions speak louder than words. I attended a Baptist church, besides their end time beliefs and...

    Which denomination?

    There are closed handed beliefs that to change or disregard would be considered salvation beliefs, for instance Jesus is the Savior, He came in the flesh, etc. These are non negotiables. Then there are open handed beliefs that if person was unsure about or believed one way or another, would not...

    [__ Prayer __] jehovah's witness

    They only take communion once a year? What would constitute a person being allowed to participate in communion?

    [__ Prayer __] jehovah's witness

    Is it true they don't believe we have spirits? What encompasses their communion season?
