From the "You might be an IFB if..." thread:
So, in a sense, here's that thread.
Can someone explain the "Bible Church" thing to me? It gets mentioned on the FFF every so often as a category, usually in a sense that is mildly derogatory, or if not, at least in a sense that it's "not Baptist."
My own church is called a "Bible Church," so I'm particularly curious, because apart from denominational affiliation, we're effectively a Baptist congregation. Perhaps it's an American thing?
So, inform me. What is a "Bible Church," how does it differ from a Baptist church, and why is it the butt of so many jokes?
Hey, go start your own "you might be a Bible Church guy if..." thread!
