Re: YouTube Channel Discusses the Local Church

Great episode Cal,
I believe you have issued a timely warning to the 'shepherds' of the LRM. Judgement is coming. The anger you found yourself expressing reflects the mounting anger of God, as well...

Re: Coworkers-"Reading the pure word is unbiblical and dangerous"

I want to challenge the idea that truth is discerned by having enough acadamia on board. That it requires a disciplined, scientific and rigorous theoretical approach. As though you have to be very...

Re: Coworkers-"Reading the pure word is unbiblical and dangerous"

Interesting side note. I have been following John macarthur out of curiosity and I've found this, there exists a YouTube channel titled 'the Bible Thumping Wingnut Network', BTWN for short, with the...

Smile Re: How to Be Delivered from Demons - Derek Prince

I know deliverance from demons seems on the loopy edge of Christianity for some. But Jesus did quite a lot of it. I agree with awoken. My advice to a skeptic is, don't dismiss it out of hand, it...

Re: Paul's Uncomfortable Verses About Women

Interesting conversation on tricky issues. I have loved to learn this perspective that is put forward on this thread. I too struggle with all the verses above, and getting a grasp on God's true...

Re: I've been around the churchlife over 10 years now

As I am a person who tolerates the marginalised, I have been targeted by both a 7th day Adventist as well as LCers in my community.

It is a matter of amusement to me to think of putting them...

Re: ...in ways we could not previously imagine

Dear Nell,

My own Dad has said exactly the same thing for years. Being an historian and a very intellectual Christian, he narrows it down to not just any religion, but democracy only works in a...

Re: Struggling

Wow, this is a great insight. No-one has ever stated this so clearly before. I believe that the ministry of Nee and Lee is into the soul and not the spirit. Your spirit was ignored, depleted and...

Re: Only the Lords Recovery can cause the second coming of Christ

So 'meeting on the proper ground' replaces being 'a sinner saved by grace', as the golden ticket for entry. Just like 'worshipping on the sabbath' for the SDA's.

They miss the gospel as presented...

Re: Local Church Speak - Merged with The Lexicon

Now I have long had this question. Why does LC-speak use the word 'triune' but not the word 'trinity' to describe God? Mostly but not exclusively, the rest of Christendom uses the word trinity to...

Oh dear, Cal,

No wonder you only made it so far in the LC then failed......

Yes, well done on the choosing of a key word 'blowhard', and good points for repetition strikes too... much higher...

Re: Quote from today's Witness/Watchman Wednesday

Note in this short quote, the term 'absolutely useless' appears 4 times, no less. Conviction through repetition, not reason.
Must've been the catchphrase of the moment at that time, for the...

Re: Local Church Speak - Merged with The Lexicon

To concur with the principles exposed in recent discussion, I once referred to two close friends as 'two close friends' and was admonished immediately, they are 'sisters', and furthermore, I had a...

Re: LC-Speak

This is a great thread, I noticed the LC lingo too, 'mingled' is both a false doctrine and another lingo word.

However, it's also helpful to keep in mind, it's not the lingo itself that's the...

The Place of Love in the Local Church Denomination

It is typical of a cult to want 'love' to be directed to the personality at the top. To find ways to block love from being directed elsewhere, to a spouse, to children, to friendships, is contrary to...

Seriously? Mockery? Can you be more offensive?

In the interests of protecting things from going sour here, I have two things to say.

First off, I want to give a bit of faith in StG. I...
