What is the arkansas christian community
What do they believe in? Why is the little i hear about them bad?
How many Christian troll sites, (e.g; christwire and Landoverbaptist)are there?
How do we know that its a troll site?
Are there similar people or websites like this with questionable words or doctrines, but not enough information on them? If so discuss these amongst yourselves.but remember to answer the first questions if you can

Troll sites sometimes use mainstream doctrines as satire knowing that their audience is non-christian. And other times, say things that are implied by mainstream doctrines plainly so it sounds incredibly rude. Other times, they pose as actual congregations, and it's really hard to tell the genuine people "who believe that" and those who are mockers type thing.
.
(EDIT) This is why I focus on compassion, love, and faith as the main points to look for in a teaching, not only because the bible teaches them as foundations of all the other teachings ... but because those who are basing their actions on a set of rules so as to make a mockery of the faith ... will always 100% of the time disagree.

I dont know who tim spiess is but how do you know him and why do you ask.

I live in arkansas but am not familiar with this organization "the arkansas christian community", who are they and where are they?

I found tim spiess today on his website first going on about jesus words concerning our possessions, then about how paul was a false apostle. When i find people or sites like these, i tend to look them up. These are his sites
http://www.joshuafamilies.info/index.html
http://www.jesusfamilies.org.

It's The homepages, so you can explore more than i did when i started asking questions. As for the Arkansas Christian community, i literally just heard about it. I found it during my search on tim spiess. Someone on wordpress thinks hes a wolf in sheeps clothing, and mentioned it, saying that tim believed it and it was wrong, or something like that. Here's the link so you can check it out yourself.

Other than these links, thats all I've got on either of these. But then again, i literally just found them like, a couple of hours ago. So im pretty sure there's gotta be some other stuff somewhere.
