I never doubted the bible until I read some verses in the bible that felt absurd to me.Then later on I began to research on some history about the bible and Christianity and my doubt increased I am actually on a cross road so as for now I really don't know.So then I looked into the reasons of theologians,biblical scholars and apologists I know a lot about the bible I still read it but it doesn't inspire me.I believe everybody has a right to what they believe so it is a free world.

I don't doubt Jesus but to me the bible is not infallible.I believe it was written by men and it follows the life of the Jews.

umuna:
Please also look up Psalm 150 what it says about using instrument in praising God.

But king David knew that the ark was coming in and he made up his mind to dance in the presence of the lord

Ladyhippolyta88:
To be sincere yes but not all.To me the old testament is not applicable especially the laws and the new testament to the best of my knowledge was written to address issues concerning the church that is why they are called letter or epistles.But some of them still apply.So to me I read it in light of the time it was written.

Ladyhippolyta88:
I don't read the bible literally I read it in light of the time it was written.

You guys are so wrapped up in sin and trying to escape Hell that you have forgotten the real purpose of God. Your religion is a very selfish one, trying to get out of a mythical bogus hell by hypocritically trying to live a HOLY life, instead of living a HOLY life merely for the sake of love for God and mankind without a mythical Hellfire.

God wants us to show mercy to all, to focus on the welfare of our neighbor irrespective of religious affiliation or denomination, to visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction and to keep oneself unspotted from the world. To keep one from unspotted from the world does not mean wearing long faces like the hypocrites, or covering up from head to toe or peaching about sin 24x7. It does not mean adhering to a man-made dress code or abstaining from alcohol or bowing your head down and calling everybody Sir.

Your spiritual welfare is our concern as far as you come to our church and do not leave it ever.

Once you leave, you become a Judas and your spiritual welfare is no longer our concern,

What a bunch of hypocrites !!!

adontcare:
if watching television is against d church doctrine, then y using phone? because through phones, people can still watch ponography and read or communicate lustfully. I think d doctrines should be revisited. Then d part concerning using attachments on females, the members uses rubber thread and wool but not expression or superstar attachment to plait. Are wools and thread not attachments also?

Themandator:
Okay, can you help with a list of means of maintaining holiness that you know of....luke dos and don't

How does worshipping without drum connotes worshipping in spirit?

Themandator:
There is no strategy for making heaven other than accepting the free gift of salvation that the cross offers. It is SALVATION from Jesus Christ death and resurrection that guarantees anyone a place in heaven.


Whosoever believes is saved....when the scripture says work out your salvation it is saying, work out your belief in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ through the word.... Fear of missing heaven will lead many,like Job and his morbid fear,to actually miss it.


That was how a guy was arguing about women and trousers and I told him it was actually for women in Jesus times that Jesus never wore one....he come shut up

JMAN05:
Do they now allow the watching of TV?

it was never really stopped, some still had theirs. They never said the box was a sin, but some of the contents are.


He wants to change the visitation-annuls-marriage policy?

Don't really know, but people marriage won't be stopped unnecessarily by the marriage committee he set up.


Good one, but the church shouldn't set rules on that. Give the counsel and allow people to show there love for God by heeding the counsel.
That's what they do. no body has ever forced me to do or not to do.



Give counsel against drunkenness, and point out the harm associated with drunkenness, but setting rules that no one should take alcohol because of the harm it caused for those who abuse it, is going beyond your authority I think. That an item could be abused doesn't make the item bad in itself. Again, i don't think we have the right to ban what God allows. Jesus took alcohol. The effort might be good intentioned, but we have to be careful not to exceed our limit of authority.
Everyone still has their choices here too.



Good one. Some call names of donors. That is wrong.
ok



Never do things to please the world. But care should be taken so that while trying to maintain holiness, you dont devise your own definition of holiness. That is what I have observed about DLC.
was your observation from within or outside.

umuna:
i will not read, because your member that lives in the street where i stay are evil. They dont show forth the love of Christ in their attitude towards others that are not deeper life members. if you are not their member, you are a sinner! mind you, i dont give a hoot about what you say or quote.
