We are a movement that seems to really crave ecumenical acceptance right now.

Well, most of the time, when I "get it" I don't know what to do with it.

Perhaps this desire is inate to the Christian because of Christ's prayer that we may all be one - even as he is one with the Father.

I am a firm believer in the Old Paths

The men I fellowship most closely are absolutely NOT craving ecumenical acceptance.

I would be horrified if we were gaining ecumenical acceptance, because that would mean we had sold out.

The real Apostolics aren't ever going to crave or receive ecumenical accpetance.

I learned tithing in a good ole southern Baptist church. They are the examples to look to for giving.

I actually can't stand the term ecumenical because most people use it out of a knowledge of what it truly represents.

The ecumenical movement includes the bizzare religions like Buddism, Islam, Hinduism, Unitarianism, Kaballahism, and the like.

The term is not simply Oneness and Trinitarian folks getting together to debate the finer points.
