2022-06-02 00:20:01 Neurodivergent nonbinary trans "pastor" is made "Bishop". This individual then disciplines abusive latinx "pastor". But this is unknowingly done on a hispanic holiday and is thus racist. Woman "Archbishop" rebukes "Bishop" but isn't harsh enough so is then also racist. Neurodivergent nonbinary trans "Bishop" is then removed from inclusion group in the ELCA for not being anti-racist enough.

Ladies and Gentlemen, we are witnessing levels of reprobation that shouldn't even be possible. Open / Comment

2022-05-30 16:28:52 Why do we gather for Lord's Day Fellowship on Sunday?

There are clear passages that mention the first day of the week, Sunday.
"On the first day of the week, when we were gathered together to break bread, Paul began talking to them, intending to leave the next day, and he prolonged his message until midnight."
Acts 20:7

Paul also urges the Corinthian believers, in 1 Corinthians 16:2 "On the first day of every week each one of you is to put aside and save, as he may prosper, so that no collections be made when I come."
Since Paul designates this offering as “service” in 2 Corinthians 9:12, this collection may have been linked with the Sunday worship service of the Christian assembly.

Historically, Sunday, not Saturday, was the normal meeting day for Christians in the church, and its practice dates back to the first century.

Christians worship on Sundays in celebration of the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Every week, 52 times a year, we gather on a Holy Day in remembrance of His Sacrifice, and worship in one accord. While we are to worship the Lord every day, make the effort to find a local church and gather in the Fellowship of the Saints. If Christians under Roman and Jewish persecution made the effort to do so, surely so can we. Open / Comment

2022-05-30 11:59:01 Charles Hodge on the visibility of the church:

"It is no less clearly revealed that it is not the purpose of God that the visible Church on earth should consist exclusively of true believers. This is plain, (1.) Because the attainment of such a result in any society or government administered by men is an impossibility. It would require that the officers of the Church or the Church itself should have the power to read the heart, and be infallible in judgments of character. (2.) The conditions which, under both dispensations, He has prescribed for admission into this visible society of his professed worshippers, are such as men not truly regenerated may possess. Those qualifications, as we have seen, are competent knowledge, and a credible profession of faith and obedience. (3.) Our Lord expressly forbids the attempt being made. He compares his external kingdom, or visible Church, to a field in which tares and wheat grow together. He charged his disciples not to undertake to separate them, because they could not, in all cases, distinguish the one from the other. Both were to be allowed to grow together until the harvest. (4.) Christ, to whom all hearts are known, admitted Judas to the number of his most favoured disciples, and even made him an Apostle. (5.) All attempts to make a Church consisting exclusively of the regenerate, have failed. So far as known, no such Church has ever existed on the face of the earth. This of itself is proof that its existence did not enter into the purpose of God."
