    House Churches

    And then there are places like around here where there is no excuse to not have a job. Literally every retailer or manufacturer in this area is looking for help and struggling to find good help. But what I've been seeing for about the last decade or two is the entitlement mentality that so many...

    House Churches

    This is where discernment comes into play. Anytime I see a church leader, pastor, etc. getting rich I really have to question their motives for shouldn't they be putting God's Word first in their lives? I'm not saying they should be living in poverty, but a modest lifestyle should be adequate...

    House Churches

    I think Acts, chapter 2, and 4:32-37, provides insight into what the Church should be like. It would be for both unbelievers and believers. For unbelievers it can be a place to hear the gospel and for believers it can be a place of fellowship and growing in faith.

    I didn't think either of you were defending it.

    How was your day described with a meme .

    My wife makes a homemade cream style with lots of butter and 1/2-1/2. Made up 19 baggies with about 2 cups each. Some will go to the kids.

    Is It Just Me?

    That is one thing you can't get around here. For one thing there aren't too many dairy farms around anymore. The neighbor that we get our beef from sold his 300 head about four years ago and went strictly beef now. It's a liability concern. I suppose someone got sick one time from milk they got...

    Is It Just Me?

    Oh yeah, forgot to mention. Monday, I picked up a crate of peaches from a local farmer that had them shipped in from outside the state. And it looks like we've got some work to do today because yesterday my wife brought home 20 dozen ears of sweet corn she picked up at a neighbor's farm about 4...

    The Gospel

    When God created the heavens and the earth, the plants, animals, and mankind He was pleased with what He had done, calling it "very good." He placed mankind (Adam & Eve) in the garden of Eden and told them to "be fruitful and multiply." They had nothing to fear, food for the taking, and...

    Is It Just Me?

    We have farmer's markets all over the place here where people sell home-grown vegetables, fruits, and nuts. I had eggs for breakfast today that came from a neighbor's farm a few miles away. We have a neighbor that grows asparagus and apple trees, and you can pick your own or they will pick them...

    Is It Just Me?

    Actually, most of the licensing and rules you speak of are intended to protect the patrons, the environment, and others. When my wife and her two partners decided to purchase a local bar/restaurant, before signing their names they decided it would be due diligent to have the place inspected to...

    I guess you've got all the answer then. Hat's off to you.

    Is that even Christian? How is that justified, and do they then turn away those that can't afford the entrance fee?

    House Churches

    Tithing to a church is not obligatory. It's an offering. Let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver. 2 Corinthians 9:7 NKJV

    Advice in "The Search"

    As you totally made it up that they divorced their wives. By the way, the three translations that you referenced in post #67, I recommend you follow the footnotes, and you'll learn that there is some uncertainty regarding how those translations should be. All three of them indicate there could...

    House Churches

    I'm not sure I follow you necessarily. Attending worship services don't cost anything so what does it matter that new churches are being built since those that are financing them obviously can afford it? Maybe you can clarify?
