Hello again NEW Creature,It seems you are frustrated about what you feel church should or should not be doing and then you seem to judge the format in which each congration is trying to follow. All of your judging is only keeping you occupied on matters thats really not that important to God. All he wants you to do is LOVE one another. It says judge not or you to will be judged by GOD ALmighty. No man has this right to put down another for his beliefs.Colossians 2:16. Human nature is simple when theres a disagreement we tend to close up, nothing can get in, nothing can get out. So I say this to you be opened to the word of GOD, develope your own personel relationship with him and then you wont be disappointed when man lets you down or lead you down the wrong path. Remember focus on him rather than the type of church service. Please except what Iam saying as a love jesture and not an attack on your thoughts. It is evident that the real message has not been taught to a lot of us. But all we can do is continue to strive toward the mark. Peace-out D BLESSER | ||||||

DBLESSER I will stand with New Creature on this issue. In today's church we place the importance on everything but content. However content is crucial, if we aren’t conveying the message that without Christ we are lost and going to Hell, and that Jesus died for us sinners so that could have eternal life, we are wasting time. Jonathan Edwards was man that was near sighted so he held his Bible nearly in front of his face. He spoke in monotones without gesture or expression. In this we have the modern day recipe for dull, boredom, and guests that would never return. Yet we know when he finished many of his sermons there wasn’t a person rightly seat in the pews. They were so convicted, so distressed that they laid prostate or in humble submission before a Holy God. Crying out and weeping to a Jesus to save them, thanking Him for His sacrifice and praising His Holy name. His whole sermon was content. Content that told of our fallen state and our need for Jesus in our lives. There was no gimmicks, dramas, no programs, only sound preaching. Today all kinds of gimmicks, programs, you name it are being used yet the church really hasn’t grown since 1976, and we are seeing more and more sin within the very walls of the church. I do not see New Creature as putting down the church, I see what he said as cry to wake up from one standing on the wall! EdB |
