1 | What would make this allogory? | 1 John 3:2 | stjohn | 214223 | ||
Hi bibleman I don't think you've offended anyone. :-) If may, just slip in here with my two cent's... Though we know from seeing how divisive denominationalism can sometimes be that doesn't necessarily mean it's all or even mostly a bad thing. And though some denominations do go pretty far away from Christian orthodoxy. What we call denominationalism can and maybe should be called Congregationalism. And this often just stems from geographical or cultural differences, rather than big divisions or differences in orthodox doctrine. As long as our doctrines and statement of faith are fundamentally sound and don't stray from biblically based theology, there is little reason we cannot reach out to and get along with other Christian denominations. In our town and in many towns and places around the world many do just that and have wonderful relationships with other Congregations in their area with different names on their shingles, and even communicate and cooperate in loving brotherhood with many of them. Anyway, I think thats what we mean by painting with a baud brush. We should be careful with our words. The world already thinks we cant get along because of their view of denominationalism,. But as Christians we can most often see it as much less divisive then they do. John |
