I agree with all of them. Sometimes these warning signs are very suttle, especially when you are looking for a new church. You many not realize the depth of the problem until you've been there for awhile. Look at each one seriously before deciding on a church. You may be tempted to brush it off at first. Bad idea.

Thanx Wade. It is very humbling to know the persecution our brothers and sisters in Christ are facing in other parts of the world. Let us pray that their boldness and courage continues, and that we might be as bold to proclaim the gospel.

Wade an excellent example of the way that even many modern church's view marriage today. It's taken lightly, it's significance and purpose are not emphasized. The very fact that the woman "pastor" thought it was "neat" and didn't point out to the couple that it may be best left until the reception of at least after the ceremony was over shows the great irreverance for God's HOLY Matrimony.

Frankly, this makes marriage look like a big fat JOKE. Something that can be entered into lightly and exited lightly as well. Think of the children attending that wedding. What idea did they get about the nature of marriage?

They are entering into a lifelong covenant with not only each other, but also with GOD. They are entering into a covenant CREATED BY A SOVEREIGN GOD, one that was compared to the relationship of Jesus Christ and his Church. We are not only promising many things to each other here, we are promising to God.

The above video is a disgrace to marriage. It takes lightly what God does not take lightly.

An excellent study tonight Wade. Thanx.

I must admit I'm a little choked up by that. Very powerful message. It's unreal the things we have let slip in and put up with in churches today. It's unreal the things we will sit and listen to from the pulpit, complete heresy, and nobody even gets upset. If they do, they just leave and find another church (I myself guilty). There is truth for what he says, RUN.. But don't put up with it. I think we need to be telling our pastors and leaders what is so wrong with the watered down heretical gospel that so many of them preach. I think each and every pastor or leader needs to be called on it, and held accountable for it. And most of all, I think we need to pray, pray, pray for our fellow brothers and sisters in Christ, that they would FEAR the Lord and respect him and his word enough to say no to the heresy that is being preached.

Excellent study tonight wade. Keep up the good work.

I also enjoyed the post. :)
