Yeah, I think that jives with what I said. I just didn't know where in time the Campbellites merged with the Reform Baptists.skylark1 said:Hmmm...
He didn't establish it, but this this source states that he was a minister of the Reform Baptist, that they say eventually evolved into the Disciples of Christ.
"But of all these none created such a stir throughout the whole Western Reserve1 as the conversion of Sidney Rigdon, the minister of the most popular church in Mentor, who was universally recognized as "the great orator" of the Reform Baptist Movement in Ohio, then in process of evolution into what has since been called the Disciples of Christ."

Wow! I didn't know you could link that source.
No, I believe what is being said is that the Campbellites and the Reform Baptists' doctrines were similar enough that they joined together for a while, but after just a while, they separated again and the Campbellites went on to become Disciples of Christ.Wrigley said:Just so I understand what some of you are saying. Is the claim being made that the Reformed Baptists are from the Cambellite tradition?

I think I will leave that between you and God.Casiopeia said:And what is that supposed to mean?

Not meant to offend. Sorry if it did. I just will never give up hope. Is hope in vain? I don't believe so. That is why I said it is between you and God. I do not know for sure if you will return, but I have my insights.Casiopeia said:I think you are learning Zippy, for there is nothing ever so personal as the path we choose to take. Once ...Long ago, in the far far away land of South Dakota, I was told by a "good member" that I would never last. I resented him for a very long time. Not because he might have been right but because he was arrogant and snotty about it. Implying I didn't have what it took to be a good Latter-day Saint.
After 26 years of working my gutts out to be the best little Mormon girl I could, I came to realize that NOTHING would ever be enough for those I practiced my faith with and they made me believe it would NEVER be enough for God. I took my leave quietly after a year of careful contemplation and not saying much to anyone.
Now maybe I am misunderstanding you but if you are implying I will return one day you are sadly mistaken. I am adement about that. So I happily line up with the other aposates to say, I will not go gentle into that dark night. I will not give up my new found relief and joy and freedom. I will fight for my right to choose till the day I die.
Casi (whew, end rant...guess I just really resented the implications of your post. )
One more thing. I am sorry that you feel the way you do. I gave up working on perfection the way you describe it along time ago. Otherwise I probably would have left too.Casiopeia said:I think you are learning Zippy, for there is nothing ever so personal as the path we choose to take.

If you want to know my answer send a PMCasiopeia said:Well Zippyitydodah...since you didn't answer me...YET...I will let you in on a secret...if I were to return to any church right now it would be the Roman Catholic Church.
Kinda blows you out of the water doesn't it?

"For the case of those who have once been enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and have been made partakers of the Holy Spirit, and have tasted the good word of God and powers of the age to come, and then have fallen away, it is impossible to renew them again to repentance, since they again crucified to themselves the Son of God, and put Him to open shame."
