This school teaches excellent scripture… what about the pagan practice of the venerable day of the sun?
We all tend to hold on to things that are traditions of men, exactly what Yeshuah told us was not a good thing?
The theology is "once saved always saved". You're saved by raising a hand or filling out a card or saying a prayer or taking a walk to the altar. And don't be fooled to think Water Baptisms is for the "true" disciples. Now you have Baptism bashes and baptism pool parties. This has been a problem in evangelicalism for a very long time. I don't see how it's reversible.
Are you looking for salvation of souls
Or salvation of wallets
You let that word slip out
Clean the heart of preachers first before entering thy brother's
Luke 14:12-14
He said also to the man who had invited him, “When you give a dinner or a banquet, do not invite your friends or your brothers or your relatives or rich neighbors, lest they also invite you in return and you be repaid. But when you give a feast, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind, and you will be blessed, because they cannot repay you. For you will be repaid at the resurrection of the just.”
Luke 14:25-33
Now great crowds accompanied him, and he turned and said to them, “If anyone comes to me and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be my disciple. Whoever does not bear his own cross and come after me cannot be my disciple. For which of you, desiring to build a tower, does not first sit down and count the cost, whether he has enough to complete it? Otherwise, when he has laid a foundation and is not able to finish, all who see it begin to mock him, 30 saying, ‘This man began to build and was not able to finish.’ Or what king, going out to encounter another king in war, will not sit down first and deliberate whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand? And if not, while the other is yet a great way off, he sends a delegation and asks for terms of peace. So therefore, any one of you who does not renounce all that he has cannot be my disciple.
Are we seriously saying that you can make decision for Christ and then make a decision to be a follower (apprentice, disciple). If so, therein lies the problem. No such gospel exists in scripture. Only in the west where it needs to be palatable and consumable.
