Sorry, DA - I feel no need to defend what I believe. I have too much experience in my own family at watching others change and then losing the next generation. On the flip side, I have also seen some OP churches lose the next generation, because they would not change.
I believe there is a balance, but that balance may differ from church to church. And I am ok with that.
My reason for posting was just to find out what people were comfortable with and if they considered any of these "sin".
I find it amazing and somewhat disturbing that many people on this forum do not see issues with things that many people in the regular "church world", do have issues with.
I read a book sometime back called "Intoxicated with Babylon". This was not written by an apostolic, but contains many of the precepts that you would find in an "OP" church.
In light of what I have learned here, I would say that "all things are lawful, but all things are not expedient".
Next thread, please!
