March 27, 2024, 12:55:24 pm Mark says: Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked  When Hamas spokesman Abu Ubaida began a speech marking the 100th day of the war in Gaza, one confounding yet eye-opening proclamation escaped the headlines. Listing the motives for the Palestinian militant group's Oct. 7 massacre in Israel, he accused Jews of "bringing red cows" to the Holy Land.

September 24, 2017, 10:45:16 pm Psalm 51:17 says: The specific rule pertaining to the national anthem is found on pages A62-63 of the league rulebook. It states: “The National Anthem must be played prior to every NFL game, and all players must be on the sideline for the National Anthem. “During the National Anthem, players on the field and bench area should stand at attention, face the flag, hold helmets in their left hand, and refrain from talking. The home team should ensure that the American flag is in good condition. It should be pointed out to players and coaches that we continue to be judged by the public in this area of respect for the flag and our country. Failure to be on the field by the start of the National Anthem may result in discipline, such as fines, suspensions, and/or the forfeiture of draft choice(s) for violations of the above, including first offenses.”
September 20, 2017, 04:32:32 am Christian40 says: "The most popular Hepatitis B vaccine is nothing short of a witch’s brew including aluminum, formaldehyde, yeast, amino acids, and soy. Aluminum is a known neurotoxin that destroys cellular metabolism and function. Hundreds of studies link to the ravaging effects of aluminum. The other proteins and formaldehyde serve to activate the immune system and open up the blood-brain barrier. This is NOT a good thing."

bro FFF - first off, are you sure this is a non-501c3 church? The reason why I'm asking is b/c if you haven't yet, go to the Ohio Secretary of State web site, and look up to see if your church's name on it.(it's a 501c3 if they file articles of incorporation with their respective state)
http://www2.sos.state.oh.us/pls/bsqry/f?p=100:1:0:::::

Thanks for that link. I found out that it used to be incorporated back in 1988, but it was cancelled in 1998. There's no other record of it.

With that being said - I can empathize with you - I know we are supposed to separate from these apostates, but it is easier said than done doing so. I know scripture says to FLEE, but again it's easier said than done. But with the events unfolding as you describe - I believe this IS THE perfect time to flee!

Yeah, we've decided to stop going. Even though it's non-501c3, it's still getting too leavened.

I will say this - Praise our Lord Jesus Christ that he's given you and your wife alot of discernment over what's going on. It's just sad to see that alot of (professing)Christians just don't see the signs written on the walls all over the place.

Alot of what you're seeing is what I see at the "church" I go to too - but the difference being that the one I attend is a reprobate SBC one that's a 501c3, preaches out of these other perversions, is slowly making a transition to CCM, does Richard Foster-type "studies", etc.

You should be thankful over what the Lord is showing what is around you - yeah, this church bringing in some big screen tv is a big red flag(and the timing of it).

Yeah, it's worrisome that people don't see a problem with it. It's like, they see the Rick Warren stuff and recognize it, but they refuse to see hypocrisy or compromise in their own backyard!

Absolutely! I hope I never take for granted what the Lord has done for me and what I know now because of Him. I've learned so much more from studying the Bible on my own than I ever learned at the church building.

As for that pastor - if this isn't a 501c3 church, wouldn't surprise me if he's Jesuit-trained - looks like he's being taken care of(financially that is) very well. And he's a pastor of TWO church buildings? Honestly, doesn't sound like he puts feeding the flock THE priority. Through my experiences - I've had pastors that would do other activities OUTSIDE of their churches during the week - ultimately, they didn't care about their flock.

I don't know about that. I could be wrong, but I don't think he's a Jesuit. What bothers me is that he purposely avoids certain topics that his biggest tithers don't want to hear about. One woman (who gives a lot) said that if he preaches on modesty (women wear skirts/dresses, men wear pants, etc.) she'll stop going (meaning her tithes and offerings will stop coming, too). So he won't preach on it. My wife feels very strongly on the issue, and he's actually tried to get HER to talk to the other women about it!

Yeah, he pastors two buildings in two different cities.
