I just wanted to apologize to anyone who may be offended that I wanted to talk about the Inetnational Churches of Christ or Kip McKean. I have other people I talk to about this, that understand first hand, about everything I'm talking about. I can chat with others about it all over the world. I guess I was just curious if anyone in this forum was affected or understood where I was coming from. I realize this was probably the wrong place to open this can of worms. Again, I'm sorry.- No Apology needed rudenski

MoreThis is a reply to # 437,616Gosh...This is a Christianity Forum ...
Discussing our faith openly is one outstanding way we can grow to become fishers of men...Maybe we can use some of those worms to catch a few more fishies. : )
I think it is awesome that the international Church of Christ took a left turn toward Loving kindness...
Some day...when the Church is re-united, we will not need to haggle over doctrine...maybe now is the time? I love that your Church Leader's admitted their falability...It gives me hope: )
Keep Posting SLCC...Yah Bless you

Your 'left turn towards loving kindness' jumped out at me. Just yesterday I had a dream and I verrrry significantly turned LEFT in the dream. (won't go into details but it was a biggie, this dream!) I had my own ideas about 'left'....and am wondering the source of your 'left'??

away from condemnation and toward compassion
Away from self-right-eousness
& left toward em-path-y

This is a reply to # 437,617I agree with Rudenski! No apology needed.
This is a Christianity Forum and anything can be discussed here pertaining to Christianity....gee that covers a wide spectrum!
Anyway, anything can be discussed when loving our fellow man is the root of the discussion...

This is a reply to # 437,620How in the world can you say regarding christianity !when some are agreeing with such as Jehovahs Wittness??????They don't believe Jesus was the son of God!That Jesus was Michael the angle!You should be telling them the truth!Not trying to win a popularity contest!Some of u just want to be pp pleasers rather than preach the uncompromising word of god!I'v been ill and under stress and admitted it and asked forgivess.But this is not a christian forum when u agree to tell everyone to believe whatever the want even if it's Hindu!That would belong on the spirituality forum and you and u'r husband asked for this forum to get away from those pp and know this forum is the same thing!

"This is a Christianity Forum , anything pertaining to Christianity can be discussed here"
Dot, imagine the people out there looking for answers? Some people have a lot of questions and concerns regarding Christianity, people should be able to come here and search for truth without being yelled at or belittled for their beliefs. We as human Christians, need to realize that we will more souls into the kingdom of heaven by walking in love, teaching in love.- Re:Ev Dot

This is a reply to # 437,630But your not teaching.Just encouraging them to go on.So I can assume u also think it's okay to let pp call Jesus Michael and say he is not God?I don't think the Apostels would have done that,do you?

This is a reply to # 437,631You can't teach someone when they aren't willing to listen. You can only teach through the promptings of the Holy Spirit...
The Holy Spirit only teaches through Love and Compassion....
So when the Holy Spirit tells me to shut up, I shut up. - Re:Ev rudenski

This is a reply to # 437,637Even your avoiding the question.I know it was Yahusah.I just don't care to use a nickname and call my saviour Yah.Do u think he was Michael the archangle or the son of God?He you think he was just an angle you are only being decieved.And if you knew very much you would understand why he was referred to as the second Adam.But he was NOT Adam!He was God!

This is a reply to # 437,643People, people!
As long as we're not calling the Son of a God a derrogatory name, than who cares what we call him?
My best friend's name is Sean but I call him 'Bean' all the time! It's just like that. Jesus is not only the savior, he's also a best friend.

This is a reply to # 437,637Hi Rudi,
I know that Yahshua is the same name for Joshua, and Jesus, and most Christians don't, but that is not the same as saying that Jesus is Michael the archangel. Jesus is the son of God, or the second person of the God head, or the holy one of Israel, and many other names, but He is not an angel. Lucifer was an angel, and he fell, because of pride. Jesus is God in the flesh. He is not even close to an angel. I love you Rudi, but saying that Jesus and Michael are in any way the same, isn't correct.
However you are right, Jesus Loves us no matter what. But it isn't His love that matters in salvation, it is ours. He gave us the right to choose. It is our responability to respond to His love. He won't force His will on us at this time, for He wants our love, not just our obedience. If we love Him, we want to obey. But it is our hearts He longs for, not our head. I love you all I hope this post helps clarify this question. :-) eggface

This is a reply to # 437,639You are correct eggface.In fact in those days Jesus was a more coman name than James.But that does not make them all and the same because of a name.I'm glad to see u understand.One can't be saved by the blood of an angle!It is ridiculas how pp will go on and on to find the easy way out instead of standing up and preaching the uncompromising word of God.I'll pray for pp without falling for false beliefs just because it makes their life easier.Love,Dot

This is a reply to # 437,639indeed...we can choose love or not love...If you choose to accept Christ...you become a full time minister of love...but how many Christians are living that calling?...I see a lot of lipservice to Jesus...and just a little love...I honestly think many christians say they love Jesus...but hate their neighbors...I don't see salvation for their hate...I think their hate dies when they die...and their neighbor's hate dies too..when they die...only a slight variation on the theme...& I don't condemn even fundamentalist christians for their doctrine that does not jive with the love of Christ. Make no mistake...I believe in angels...but Christ...is my savior...
But, I don't see coming against anyone's religion as edifying or uplifting...bashing this or that denomination for their man made denominational differences doesn't give Christians a good name...

This is a reply to # 437,644Yup, Rudenski ~ I believe you again, you have such away with words at the right time.
Sorry I didn't respond earlier, but I need sleep.
Yes Jesus is Lord and Saviour, and no one goes the God except throught Him. He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life! Jesus also died for me and you, so we could be saved from our sin, better yet He died so everyone in the world could be saved from the sins of the world.
Now I call that LOVE, especially when we remember Jesus had no sin, he was(is) pure.
Also, when you read the new testament and recount His actions as he walked the earth, He didn't condemn anyone for their beliefs, he gently taught that He is the Way. Sure He caused a raucus at the Temple and chased people out with a whip, apparently they deserved it. But when people came to him with problems, looking to be healed what ever, He was gentle and loving. All I see here, are people coming and asking questions, searching for answers ~ yet they are getting lip service...(just as rudenski put it) You say Jesus was strong and forceful ~ YES HE IS GOD, HE DID THINGS PERFECTLY~ WE ARE NOT GOD ~ Sometimes force is needed...I agree, except IT MUST BE HOLY SPIRIT LEAD.
A lot of preaching pushing people doesn't work, it is force and just give Christianity a bad name! So when I realize that that preaching and force are't getting me anywhere, or the Holy Spirit tells me to shut up, I Shut up, just like I said before, I then pray for that person! Oooooh the power of prayer!
Dot: Stop bashing me, and what I believe, WE ARE ON THE SAME TEAM! Because I don't do things just like you, it is OKAY, life is full of diversity, even the CHRISTIAN LIFE. Now shall we use a little love?

This is a reply to # 437,616How nice of you to offer an apology even though you haven't done anything. You raised a question concerning an institution of which I know nothing, however if this isn't the place to come with these kinds of questions, then where?
I wish the folks who openly bang others without provocation would be as quick to offer apologies. Differences in doctrine should not make people disdain one another. How sad and destructive this is.
Please nice person, and all like you, feel free to come in anytime. May you be blessed in all you endeavor, and find Truth and much Joy!- Re: apology to SLCC rudenski

Let us find where we have agreements and not disagreements...
Jesus said..If they are not against us then they are for us...Let us try to find ways to not be one against another Christian...
Love, Peace, & Charity
