    if you feel that you will not be judged by the things you do in this lifetime, then there is no use in continuing this discussion. you can do whatever you want to. just know that there is a narrow way that leads to righteousness. sounds like you are on the whatever i want to do way. let me know...

    Because we are to LEARN from the OT - not go by it! (hebrews) big difference. we can learn a lot from the things that happened- but that doesn't mean I am going to offer a sacrifice. now to turn the tables on you- you said something earlier about burning incense. Now if you are going to use...

    I don't understand why you think using unleavened bread and fruit of the vine is a specific command and why singing isn't. there is never an example of christians using instruments in worship.just read your Bible. You can't tell me that someone on a deserted island that has a bible and does not...

    BEN- HUR, we should not generalize where God has specified. God specified to Noah gopher wood- not just wood. Noah did as he was told. he didn't use pine or oak. one of my favorite examples of sing vs instruments is the story of Uzzah and the ark of the covenant. so you remember what happened-...

    Instrumental Music

    I don't see how I am being illogical by doing only what the bible says. When we are gathered together on the Lord's Day we are to sing, pray, listen to the word be taught, have the lord's supper, and pray. Everytime you gather together with the lord's church you should do all of these things to...

    Instrumental Music

    the reason that you can't find anything is b/c instrumental music in worship is wrong. the bible says sing. if I told you to sing, why would you pull out an instrument? do you watch American Idol? what would Simon do if someone pulled out a trumpet instead of singing? he would have a heart...

    A question on a church issue

    You are exactly right Rick. Jesus said upon this rock I will build MY church. It is his only. and we are told in the NT how to go about worshipping in HIS church. That means one church, being no divisions ( 1 cor 1:10

    Acts 2:38

    acts 2:38 repent, and be baptized everyone of you in the name of jesus Christ for the remission of sins why do you think that this applied to the folks at pentecost and it does not apply today? you can't just pick an choose the parts of the Bible that you want to go by. you must hear...

    A question on a church issue

    "books" with an s. these are the books of law- the Bible. how about 2 corinthians 4:2? that we are to handle the word of God carefully. obviously they did have the law at that time.Paul was writing to the church at Corinth. they might not have had a nice leather bound Bible like we have. But...

    Acts 2:38

    this is a very simple verse- you have to be baptized to recieve forgiveness- it is just one of the steps to salvation- hear, believe, repent, confess, be baptized, remain faithful- you'll be saved.

    A question on a church issue

    Is there any indication in Scripture that the New Testament Church did not believe that the Eucharist was a sacrifice? i am sorry, i don't know what you are talking about. here is a website about the Lord's supper. and we are not under the ot anymore...

    A question on a church issue

    in answer to peter's questions: sorry if it is confusing. I couldn't figure out how to quote each question. He is asking if your church can trace its existence back to Pentecost or if it is a newer body trying to rediscover the Church at Pentecost.I think it would be more accurate to say that...
