    Thanks, but no, thanks. ;)
    The sad fact is that the majority of Church of England churches are so liberal that N.T. Wright would have nothing to do with them. Yet there are some fine, Bible-believing churches and ministers within that denomination. One of them, a guy called Melvin Tinker, died just recently. Google up his name. He was a great servant of the Lord. He wrote a book called That Hideous Strength: how the West was Lost. Very prophetic.

    Oh, my goodness! Anglicans are probably the most theologically diverse denomination there is, from Anglo-Catholic to Zwinglian Protestant, Lutheran-leaning to Reformed-leaning, Arminian, Charismatic, holiness, and within those groupings, every shade of conservatism and liberalism to be found anywhere in Christendom.

    Yes, from reading your posts, I would think those would be a good fit.

    well, not for the same reason, but I would probably join Baptist Board and watch a ton of sermons on YouTube.

    Which has not been totally healthy in terms of feeling isolated but it's an option until a real option arrives.

    This is a good one. I use it.

    If there were no Baptist Churches has not been a problem for me... Though being a Baptist there are other men's writing I enjoy... There are no men no matter what the denomination have ALL truth... If we had ALL truth where is the growth?... Did I stop growing in following the Lord or do I have a daily growth?... Do we accept everything we read?... There is discernment, I filter what I believe to what I read... If I read something that is in contrast to what I believe, I will read what the writer has to say, or if said writer has further insight, I will read what he has to say and accept it, or reject it... This relates to Books, Articles and Sermons and as I do, I remember, The Apostle Paul's saying and try to live it everyday but there is also a reverse interpretation... Brother Glen:)

    Corinthians 11:1 Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ.

    The reverse

    If I don't follow Christ... Don't you follow me!

    I think I would first question if your friend's statement is accurate. Sometimes people say something like that and they really haven't looked that hard (or they are being way too picky - not just over baptism, but making a long list of non-essential issues that they want a church to agree with). If they are in a very remote area with very few churches to choose from, then I could see this being a problem. But in most cases I would be surprised if a baptist-like church that practices believer's baptism and is evangelical were not within a 40 minute or so drive (this is in the US). I could be wrong.
