Experience is here to show the reality. What you think the church is, can only be validated by experience.
How can we make the Bible practical, if we don't have experience?
Apostle Paul told timothy:
And let them also be tested first; then let them serve as deacons if they prove themselves blameless.
1 Timothy 3:10 ESV You are ripping that verse out of context. That verse is talking about observing a man's life in the church to see if he is qualified by his godly life to be an officer of the church. It has nothing to do with what we are talking about. Nothing. When you read scripture prayerfully read it in context. All literature is to be taken in it's context and not read from the point of view of the reader, but the author. The bible is the inerrant, infallible, authoritative word of God and is different from all writings in that regard. We can't take scripture and give it meaning it was not intended. The passage you quoted is clearly not talking about experience as we have been discussing. You have already mentioned a negative attitude toward believers based some ill treatment you say you received. Matt 18 applies in that situation. A message board is not the place for that. Go be reconciled or cover it in lo |

It's not a "shtick" Allie, many pastors are not qualified for this, what are the qualifications for pastors anymore? It seems anyone whose Bible study becomes large enough can qualify to be a pastor. Have you ever been to university campus' before? Join any of their Christian groups and find any leader who is qualified to give sound advice. Or start in your own church, you already showed us how much you care about this topic, by calling everyone ignorant. They might be ignorant, but when you have 2 kids, husband is married to a muslm, debt and no income, that is the last thing you tell these people. I knew while I was posting that someone was going to make a comment that was emotional and off base. Start talking about an experience as if experience is truth to be lead by. That is the world today and it is in the church. We are gripped by emotion and experience rather than scripture. We start losing the ability to reason cause we are always talking about someone being mistreated or publically crying about mistreatment. Heroes of the faith didn't go around crying about mistreatment. Jesus said love your emenies and do good to them not complain. Jesus was the perfect example of this. The Apostle Paul was too. |

Another "victim" of Christ's church. Christians are misogynists, racists, perverts, yada yada yada. I am tired of hearing how wicked Christ's church is. From the gymnist turning her abuse towards the church, MLK50 telling white Christians they are bigots, to now the church giving cover to abusive men. This is all a schtick. Broad brushes being used and blaming Christ's church for evil in society. This is persecution and it is very underhanded the way it is happening. Why does a person have to be told they are a bigot and abused? Don't you as an adult know if you are abused? If you are a bigot in need of repentance wouldn't someone who knows you would have said something rather than a guy who doesn't know you? Are we that soft in the mind? Can we no longer think?  |
