I found this fight to claim they aren't a denomination and their claim they are the only church that does it the way God intended it to be arrogant. Pride is a sin my friend, and there was too much pride in the church that clouded God's message of love.

If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, looks like a duck.....it probably is a duck. <BR/>In so many ways we function just like so many other denominations, so why do we continue to claim we aren't one? I think it's mostly about pride. Yes, our fruit does betray us.<BR/><BR/>Love you bro!<BR/>DU <BR/><BR/>P.S. Have you read "The Barbarian Way"?

To Terry, I was with two sisters in Christ in the last two days who raved to me about how the workshop had transformed them to love Jesus more. Dramatically so. I am not surprised that Satan wants to discourage. One of the ladies was in our home Sunday evening and is a single lady and witnessing mightily and successfully to her daughter, son in law, son, daughter in law and four grandkids. Keep up the good work.<BR/>Larry WishardAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37091954.post-16530945009973304512007-04-24T09:07:00.000-05:002007-04-24T09:07:00.000-05:00You could be right the church of Christ may be a d...You could be right the church of Christ may be a denomination. I am always questioning the way things are done. <BR/><BR/>I have grown up in the church and have seen things done much the same where ever I attended.<BR/><BR/>Like you I find very little to explain how to conduct a service. Our examples indicate preaching, singing, breaking of bread on the first day of the week.<BR/><BR/>I have not found error in content over the years with the church of Christ and their attempt to be a NT church which is why I attend. However, they do seem to be a franchise and a fast food one at that. Worship is done in an hour. I do not get the indication that is how it was done in the NT church. <BR/><BR/>Like you I love the church of Christ and I to look forward to peeling away the habits and traditions to get to the real church<BR/><BR/>BrotherRay<BR/>http://www.etowahriverchurchofchrist.orgBrotherRayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03570393137364021000noreply@blogger.com
