That was kind of you, Mike. Thanks. Sorry I misunderstood.

I think you can see by my last post which I wrote before I read yours, that we are on the same page here. I no longer think I know anything about what God wants with regard to church meetings. I only have some level of assurance that I am where He wants me at this point in my life. I give other Christians all kinds of leeway in how, where, etc. they meet and what they believe about the church matter. This has absolutely nothing to do with my ability to receive, love, appreciate, and fellowship with them.
