1 | Multiple Church Membership | Rom 12:5 | ob_tainer | 202487 | ||
It is not ok to be a member of 2 followings, even though they both are Christ centered, visit yes, but active members no. We are commanded by the Lord to be subject unto one Teacher or leader. Heb 13:7,17 We are vessels either of mercy or wrath rom 9:22-23 Any vessel that has no cover is considered Num 19:15 to be unclean, in error, or not fit for the Masters use! We must follow His instructions! There is only one cap, top or covering for any vessels made! The anointing or instructions given to man first starts with the man or woman of God to whom the Lord has placed over a particular local church. ps 133:2 then it is presented to the followers of that congregation by the (Pastor)lid of the vessel of mercy! God is not the author of confusion (1 cor 14:33.) Notice how when Jesus began to preach John began to decrease. | ||||||

I do believe we are subject to one leader and that is the head of the church - Jesus Christ. And Jesus should be the head of every church. Thereby, being active at 2 churches your leader is still Christ. I kind of begin to understand your vessel and top analogy but then loose it. I just don't get it or see how it really applies. It starts to seem like a stretch to me. Maybe you can explain it a little more. |

Dear thenoel, As far as I know, there is no scripture specifically forbit being active at 2 churches or more. The issue lies more on whether it is practical to do so for the Lord requires of His servant be faithful. (Luke 16:10) Shalom Azure |
