    Hating Doctrine vs Hating People

    Not only that.... Just looking at people wrong is enough to drive folks away these days. Whereas in times past they would have given a firm warning. Especially as they were so greatly established in their faith

    Hating Doctrine vs Hating People

    Notes on the seriousness of persecuting people on the grounds of doctrine.... And... I believe one ought to think real hard about any kind of offense towards other believers on doctrinal grounds... "Neither God nor his Spirit have counseled such an action. Christ did not treat those who...

    The Senior Pastor Is Most Important

    I would also venture to say that any congregation this site deems "Christian" has the ability of producing Bishops, or good senior pastors. A good Bishop is one you can put a great deal of confidence in. It is also important that such people continue in good ethics and integrity... "Dead flies...
