OK, Reba. Why don't you tell us how you REALLY feel?  Didn't King Klinton do all that stuff?? I know he had special interest in our daughters and maidservants.  Hmm - "King Allinall" - nope - just doesn't have a "ring" to it. Almost sounds "papal".  Ah! That's it! Pope Allinall I(HA-ha-ha! I kill me!) |

Yes, that's what churches look and sound like these days: Kentucky Fried Chicken outlets. Take it any way you want.

Whatever....!
It's a fact that only about 5% of church goers are really born again and the other 95% goes "with the flow" and don't even have a clue why the church should not be an institution for social events. Sad story, but that's the way it is. It's all part of "democracy", the uninformed masses rule the church with their majority votes....

Where did you get this fact, Bonaparte? Did you talk a poll, where 95% for the people said "yes, we are going to rott in hell!"?

No need to take a poll. All one need to do is study the scriptures and check around the churches. Ask the Lord, He will tell you. As long as we look for some kind of pay for what we do, as long as we want to get something from God in some kind of exchange, we are like the merchants. If you want to be rid of the commercial spirit, then by all means do all you can in the way of good works, but do so solely for the praise of God. Live as if you did not exist. Expect and ask nothing in return. Then the merchant inside you will be driven out of the temple God has made. Then God alone dwells there. See! This is how the temple is cleared: when a person thinks only of God and honors him alone. Only such a person is free and genuine. Democracy has no roll to play in this.

As some unknown person once said: "Practice random acts of kindness and senseless acts of beauty... all in love for the Lord."  |

The Bible does not tell believers to meet together for the sake of meeting together but in order to build each other up. The vast majority of Sunday services do nothing of the sort because people just sit in their pews, listen to the sermon and sing when they are told to. When they do speak it is usually after the service has finished and is often a pack of lies. I am well aware that there are exceptions to this but in general they are few and far between.
The majority of those in the last days church would be lukewarm, wealthy, complacent and would be vomited into tribulation.
A high percentage of professing Christians deny that the Bible is the inspired Word of God. Many even deny that Jesus is God.
