Biblical Worship, Not a Worship Service
I believe the article is reading practices into the early church that just weren't there. I strongly disagree with this portion. 1 Cor 16? Let's go there. Why were they collecting? Not to pay the ministers but to give to the Christians in Jerusalem. 16 Now concerning the collection for the...- TitusTwoWife

Biblical Worship, Not a Worship Service
Great 18 minute summary of a 7 part series by Tom Wadsworth. He explains that the early church for three centuries were very much against big buildings because God is not contained by them and believers are the temple of God. Notably, when the Lord's supper was turned into a sacrifice, it...- TitusTwoWife

Biblical Worship, Not a Worship Service
The early church met in informal places to edify one another. They did not meet for Worship services, preaching, or music. It was a gathering mostly at houses where people would be hospitable and encourage each other in the things of God, each sharing in turn. John 4:23-24 King James Version...- TitusTwoWife

Do you feel like getting closer to God has made you question the value of organized religion? Why or why not?
Hi Bob. Our last pastor left within a year and we left after realizing they were leaving. We had expressed some issues but were still thinking we may find another church at the time. Edit: this is the pastor who admitted he was struggling because the church was a business. This was the...- TitusTwoWife

When Leaving Church Might Actually Be the Beginning of Following Christ
There is a sense in which you go through a lot of emotions when you leave church. Self-Doubt, isolation, and fear. People wonder what's wrong with you for not settling on a church. They ask questions and view your motives with suspicion. But I am persuaded that this is the narrow path. Getting...- TitusTwoWife

Do you feel like getting closer to God has made you question the value of organized religion? Why or why not?
As I continue to read and study Scripture with my husband, Im getting more confident that being without a church is a much safer place to be in spiritual terms. Instead of worship at a set time and place, worship as Jesus and the apostles taught is in Spirit and Truth and in presenting our...- TitusTwoWife

Martin Luther and Augustine: The Truth About the Protestant Reformation
I agree that it's biblical that we can resist the Holy Spirit. However, I don't believe Luther or Calvin taught this. TULIPS "I" is Irresistible Grace. They believed that God automatically elects certain people and they cannot resist. While I get that the Reformers were addressing very real...- TitusTwoWife

Martin Luther and Augustine: The Truth About the Protestant Reformation
But do we not have free will to choose God? Are we able to respond to Him without Him doing it for us?- TitusTwoWife

Martin Luther and Augustine: The Truth About the Protestant Reformation
Was the Protestant Reformation a return to New Testament Christianity or something else? Does God do everything in our salvation and we do nothing? Really good video explaining the origin of a lot of false teachings like Calvinism, faith alone, eternal security etc, some of which I fell into...- TitusTwoWife

We should stop sinning
I'll ask then Hebrews 10:26-30 King James Version 26 For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, 27 But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries. 28 He...- TitusTwoWife

The Corruption of the Clergy: Money, Tithes, and Paid Pastors book review
Hi Bob, I don't think every pastor who enters ministry with a salary begins with a corrupt heart. Paid ministry is a widely accepted practice. However, I do believe that the system is broken and that the money involved creates a perverse incentive against preaching and living out truths that...- TitusTwoWife

We should stop sinning
The following is a quote from the doctrinal statement of Christianmyths.org written by Don Britton. Concerning Sin and Salvation For if we go on sinning willfully after receiving the knowledge of the truth (knowing Christ), there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins (there once was for him)...- TitusTwoWife

The Corruption of the Clergy: Money, Tithes, and Paid Pastors book review
1 Timothy 5:17-18 17 Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine. 18 For the scripture saith, thou shalt not muzzle the ox that treadeth out the corn. And, The labourer is worthy of his reward. The reward is honour...- TitusTwoWife
