Default Re: How Much To Throw Out?

Well, I learned something interesting about my new community church (E-Free) last weekend. They had home coming and invited an Episcopalian priest to speak. He got saved in college and attended our church and was sponsored by the church to attend Reformed Theological Seminary, his tuition and expenses were paid. What's amazing to me was that there was never any expectation that after graduation he would serve in our church or even be a minister in the E-Free denomination. While in seminary events and a burden led him to consider serving in the Episcopal Church. When he told Dr. Sproul (a bigwig in evangelicalism) at the seminary his response was something like "leave it alone and let it die" regarding the Episcopal Church. This priest preaches the gospel in this very liberal denomination. His sermon on Sunday was a very simple and clear presentation of the gospel I have heard in a long time. Compare this to the FTTA where students are expected to serve only in the small narrow sect of Christianity known as the Lord's Recovery.
