Important in finding a church home
 

When looking for a church to attend which of these options do you feel is vital?
you can select more then one.

Just wondering if people feel it matters if the church they attend teaches the Oneness of God, Baptism in Jesus name, or whatever else you may feel is important

Acts 2:38, oneness of God, inward holiness and outward holiness

Re: Important in finding a church home
 

Could you show me in the Bible the doctrine of "outward holiness". I just thought I would beat the rest of you to it! LOL

Here is a thought - The doctrine of Outward Holiness is a fallacy. There is no such thing. If a Muslim woman came in wearing a Burqa - would she be more holy than those that showed more skin?

Here is my "ideal" in a Church.

1. Oneness Of God
2. Acts 2:38 New Birth
3. Gifts in operation/Laying on of hands/Head covering
4. Post trib rapture.
5. Resurrection at the last day. No immortal soul.
6. Eternal Judgment. Annihilation of the wicked.
7. 1000 year reign.
8. Perfection and Holiness taught and crowned with love.

If anyone knows where this Church is let me know. For now I listen to the streaming audio of Carlisle Christian Fellowship Carlisle Pa. on Sunday mornings. This Church teaches the same foundation doctrine as the apostles imo. I differ with them on the meaning of the headcovering they take the UPC position.

On Friday and Saturday nights I watch IHOP a Trinitarian Charismatic Church that teaches post trib and sermon on the mount style holiness and has very nice worship. I also watch the Prayer Room at least once a day as it is streamed also. This Church is being influenced by David Pawson an old Minister who believe Acts 2:38 is the true plan of salvation. The Pastor hasnt got it yet but I believe several IHOP teachers see it. They have transitioned into baptism in Jesus name apparently but without the Oneness revelation.

There is no local Church here in Somerset Ky we are aware of that offers anything close to what I need in a Church.

Re: Important in finding a church home
 

After what it took to get the family to church this morning, I don't care what kind or how much false doctrine they preach, just as long as they have an afternoon get together instead of a 10:00am, count me in!



Jk

A pastor and church members who show the fruit of the spirit is most important to me.
