    Frank Garlock gone

    Frank Garlock passed away Friday. I have a great deal of respect for him; I went to one of his music seminars for teens, and God really used him to do a work in my heart. I also have sympathy for his daughter Shelly, who is having to watch her husband deteriorate, and had to additionally deal...

    PCC Cancels Singers Appearance Because One Is Gay

    I don't understand why you don't just apologize - it was thoughtless and rude... and your response: "It could have been worse."... well, sure, but it was still rude.

    PCC Cancels Singers Appearance Because One Is Gay

    Ah, but just because something is legal doesn't mean that it is in accordance with God's word... or do you maintain that anything that is legal is acceptable to God?

    PCC Cancels Singers Appearance Because One Is Gay

    Well, yes, but there is a HUGE difference between, say, not going to church, and having a pedophile in the group. I don't expect a non-Christian group to have the same standards, but I don't expect them to be doing anything openly that God calls an abomination.

    Indeed! But we are also allowed to judge things by God's word and (attempt to) judge righteously on the actions of others.

    I appreciate the responses... I'm quite involved these days with other things, and getting on here just get pushed out.

    Well, that's good... I don't mind if he's just doing another project... but (as I said), his practice has been to release some e-sword update once or twice a year, and next month will be two years since the last release.

    First Baptist Church faces backlash

    Interesting... when we check the local banks, they are generally out.

    PCC Cancels Singers Appearance Because One Is Gay

    You are abusing terms: this is NOT "Cancel Culture" - they are not demanding that the group disband or out to destroy them: at PCC, a private college, their group does not reflect the values they stand for, and therefore the invitation is canceled. I have no problems with a (private) Jewish...

    Important question about clothes people wear

    Clothes make a statement about the person wearing them... even it is just who they follow.

    First Baptist Church faces backlash

    Can you still get these? It is hard to find them in our area... would love to hand them out like you do.

    Church of England

    Not I; the CoE is more like a social group than a church. Not having the Bible as their guide, they will give in to whatever the people want (maybe demand)

    When Do You Leave a Church?

    Please define terms: what do you mean by "shepherd" or "shepherding"? There is a sense that is wrong, as well as a sense that is right, and I don't know which one you are advocating.

    When Do You Leave a Church?

    I like it. One thing I took from there: church is not there for my amusement; it is to glory God, and as long as they are doing that, one should not leave.
