Re: coc Online Worship Services

My cousins church took out the water fountain because you should only worship in the building.
They also did not have weddings in the church building.

Re: coc Services Starting On Time

Do you know, I was actually nearly TWENTY before I ever even SAW a roast beef that wasn't black on the outside and brown/gray all the way through? The first time I saw a medium-rare roast beef, I didn't know what it was. Really. I had to ask somebody. I thought maybe it was 'veal' or some other mea...

Re: I thought I had finally made a break for it...

She said when her friends talk about how good their children are doing, she says her's don't atend "the church" but they wouldnt go anywhere else. I thought that was the saddest thing I have ever heard. The saddest thing about the CoC is that they see no value in their family members atte...

Re: Doctrine?

Interesting, because as far as I've seen the CoC doesn't care about the old covenant, or the old testament at all. They will deny it with their lips, but their actions show do not care at all about the Old Covenant at all. As far as I'm concerned, the CoC Bible starts at Acts 2:38. The entire Old T...

The Lord's Prayer

As we were saying the Lord's Prayer in Church tonight, I remembered that my mother and our Church of Christ would not say the Lord's prayer. There was some issue about "your kingdom come" as I recall. Did your CoC every recite the Lord's prayer? If they didn't, what was their reasoning to ...
