"The Church of Jesus Christ was founded on January 16th 1983 by Bishop William R. Gibson. The first church service was on a Sunday morning with a total of thirteen people attending. On that morning Bishop William Gibson preached the first message and proclaimed that no Jesus name, Apostolic, or Pentecostal will preach in our church. Now 30 years later that message still remains the same. There has been no Jesus Name, Apostolic, or Pentecostal behind our pulpit. "

From their website....what does this mean???

Interesting.
Here also from their website.
"But Christmas has not always been so joyful an family oriented. Santa Clause, The Christmas Tree, and the Reindeer has not always been something families loved. There are deep dark secrets that today society does not wish to know about Christmas and the majority of the other Holiday's! "

Santa Clause?
Well, it's better than Santa Claws, I suppose.

They are "Church of Jesus Christ". They apparently believe apostolics and Pentecostals are compromised in doctrine. They are against " Jesus name" because they use "Jesus Christ" instead.

I will say that brother Gibson and his people are very nice in person, and willing to talk doctrine and sit down and discuss anything. I've met him and done just that. They are great people.

Interesting.
Wonder how they reconcile the verses that say "Christ Jesus" or "Jesus of Nazareth" or just Jesus.

And so, some wonder, how is it possible to be legalistic with Acts 2:38...

The Oneness Camp is deep and wide with various forms of legalism.

Kind of a lame defense when we are supposed to be special holy ghost filled Christians that have the power....

How can acts 2:38 be legalistically taken at all? Peter commanded it and so do people whom liberals claim are legalistic demand it.

As I told Jermyn....he mistakes literalism for legalism.
