@ALAYMAN On the membership idea.
Yeah sure bring them in and put their temptations in front of them every week. Sounds like a great idea!!
If someone is on a diet they don’t bring donuts home.
“you might start working on those implications in the here and now.”
So, if I don’t do it now are you saying I will have a difficult time do that in heaven?
I don’t know.
It’s just…..I’ve seen personally the destruction that sexual abuse does to a person long into their adulthood. Not immediate family but extended family, I’ve witnessed this and continue to see it in their lives.
I understand that there are programs to help victims.
But why...
Well you’re probably right about the scripture. I’m no Bible scholar.
Now, if it becomes law that they actually give the death penalty for sexual child abuse, I wouldn’t be offended. It would just mean that there would be less church members 😂
Here’s the thing, for the life of me, I completely...
😂 no. All I did was post scripture that relates to people offending children. Why would you ask me if I thought churches should execute offenders?
If scripture says they are better off at the bottom of a lake. Why would you think it was good for them to be a member of your church?
"It were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones."
Luke 17:2

Looks like the death penalty for child molesters as well.
He can do whatever he wants. But if he’s allowed to be a member of my church, I can promise you I’m not going back. He is less than a second class citizen and should be kicked to the streets.
And if I run into any one that is thinking about going to that church I will 100% tell them that they...
You are correct and this is why I will never be a member of a IFB church again. It’s very sad.
True story. When I was IFB I worked with a man that I was witnessing to. There was a IFB church near his house. He goes with his wife and children.
Monday morning at work he tells me, I went to...
And if that happens you’d have to have that conversation with parents for allow him to be a member. I’m not talking about forgiveness. I’m talking about protecting the flock.
I’m not trolling. Answer the question.
If he backslides and abuses a child in your church? Are you actually willing to allow this? And give an answer to the parents?
