Re: Milk vs. Meat
Evangelical Anabaptists are indoctrinated to think the Amish don’t teach born again salvation enough, so they think they need to constantly teach it. Chris, perhaps you would find OO Amish services more interesting? It's extremely rare or at least used to be to find OO Amish Church Services in Engl...

Re: Church Service is Boring.... sorry
Yes, and such a car dealership would then need to be involved with pressing charges, subrogation, dealing with fraud and so on. You can’t be in the business of brokering loans and at the same time “joyfully accept the spoliation of your goods”. You can. You just won’t stay in business very long. Wh...

Re: Church Service is Boring.... sorry
Exactly. Then what happened. Well under your teaching, Paul isn’t nonresistant. You tell me. Perhaps your definition of nonresistance isn’t actually true. Shrugs, no point arguing with you though, take it or leave it. You tell me. Paul invoked a pagan government to safely escort him with hundreds o...

Re: Church Service is Boring.... sorry
Chris, The church doesn’t have anything to prove to you. Nor is it called to defined herself. I would just encourage you to be careful since you cannot see or know ALL to be careful to not be a false accuser. And you are welcome to visit anytime. What I have found is a people who haven’t held on to...

Re: Church Service is Boring.... sorry
Act 23:16 And when Paul's sister's son heard of their lying in wait, he went and entered into the castle, and told Paul. Act 23:17 Then Paul called one of the centurions unto him, and said, Bring this young man unto the chief captain: for he hath a certain thing to tell him. Act 23:18 So he took...

Read my post above. They are "in Ukraine" They are "in Nigeria" They go there. That's wonderful! That's not their real home in almost all cases. Yes it is. EYN counts 600,000 members. MK was around 300,000 last I checked. My own church has a few hundred Nigerian members. They ce...

Re: Church Service is Boring.... sorry
Great evil has been done in the name of Just War. This is not just a misunderstanding… not only do we have the words of Jesus, but also the words of the apostles. There is no reasonable way one can say that it’s loving our enemies to kill them. The orthodox are wrong and to say they teach non-resis...

Re: Church Service is Boring.... sorry
I'm going to challenge you on this. The Anabaptists never faced a Hagai Sophia invasion of Muslims. Indeed they've face persecution, but not on a scale, scope, or MANY centuries of persecution as the EO church. Actually, you are wrong. The Hutterites were taken captive by Muslims more then once and...
