The Same One who gave the wisdom and authority to the leadership of the Church 2,000 years ago still does it today dear Brother.



How did they know back then?


The Spirit and the Word.

Sarcasm is still a put down. Not to pick on this post, but there's always something like this in every single thread. A wise guy poster, that throws little jabs in to demean another brother. Then when the barbs get thrown back, we are appalled.

Okay, not in the fighting mood today. In the loving mood. I know, this should be our permanent mood. You have to admit though, sometimes on hear people make you want to put the gloves on. In an intellectual way of course!

The Bible opposes following the traditions of MEN.

However the Church having traditions is not wrong per se, Brother.

If the world is used to seeing a certain look as being 'holy' or 'Christian' why should that be opposed?

What is wrong with Christians looking Christ-like, modest and moderate?

That's why many folks use Deuteronomy 22 to preach against a woman wearing pants, but have no issue when she puts her husband's suit coat on in church when it's a bit chilly!
And we have self-professed Christians killing abortion doctors.

AND "preachers" obsessed over everything from Christmas trees to Easter eggs.

And "preachers" preaching against homosexuality while committing adultery.

Couldn't we play this game all night?

It does not change the Word, or sound doctrine.

Haha. Forgiven. And forgiven easily because I am guilty often as well. Just an observation. I can count at least one "Ultra Con", "OP" jab in every post. Seems to possess some people.
