Re: Female COC preacher

UFO's are OK because we have the testimony of people who think/claim to have witnessed them but there is no physical evidence nor is it reproducible. Evolution from pond sludge to humans is OK because of reasoned arguments however there is no eye-witness nor is it reproducible. But somehow it is lo...

Re: I was wondering when this would happen.

It’s not just the c of C, all fundamentalist groups are susceptible to this kind of thinking. We are God’s people, this is a test of our faith, God will protect us. Have faith, do not be afraid. :roll:

Re: Female COC preacher

If they are truly that smart, and highly educated, many would assume they could figure out that all these religious doctrines, teachings, and traditions have human origins. This from the guy who believes in UFOs, and claims to have actually seen one. :lol: It's ok, Cootie; I'm open to them as well,...

Re: Female COC preacher

I thought it was very interesting. How many cofc women through the years have missed their "calling" as preachers, teachers, or ministers because they weren't permitted to speak? I would guess thousands through the years. In one cofc church I attended, decades ago, there women who were fa...

The one cuppers may become extinct because taking the Lord’s Supper, on the first day of the week, is scriptural and therefore mandatory. No exceptions, but on the positive side they believe they will go to Heaven.

Re: Back Again

Welcome back indeed. Unfortunately, your story is all to familiar. I’m convinced the c of C is a religious cult, but most of the folks that participate on this site disagree. If they aren’t a cult, they display enough cult like characteristics that people, IMO, should be concerned and cautious befor...

Re: A question for Teresa....

At the time, I was hoping to change the church from within (yeah, right!). One thing that had happened was a conversation with a guy at work where, out of the blue, he asked me if I thought one was saved at the point of faith or at the point of baptism. Does it matter?
