The Swedenborgian Church

Home of the famous Hot Dish?

Seriously, the Swedenborgian Church seems to believe that it's founder is a lot smarter than you are, and you should believe his little set of views about the Bible. In a nutshell, do good works and you get to go to heaven, do bad ones, and you go to hell. (Sadly, just about what the average non-Christian thinks Christianity preaches.)

Like all liberal idiots, they have no vision past right now. They must be hoping to attract the stupid single feel-good idiot with too much money crowd.

A church isn't interested in your salvation unless it is teaching directly from the Bible. Try this:

Hold your Bible with the spine toward the floor. Think of the front cover & back cover of the Bible as the rails - like a railroad track. If what you are taught is between the rails, it is of God. If you are being taught things that fall outside the rails, it is of man. Jesus is the only one who can give you everlasting life. If a man tells you he can you are being deceived.

Many of the churches in the list are teaching nothing from the Word or they take a little piece of the Word, muck it up with man and then teach it as gospel. The more of His word that you know, the less likely you will be cheated out of salvation.

Funny. That is not what my Bible says. It says, "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved."

Also, "He that believes and is baptized shall be saved."

It does say, "Faith without works is dead" but we do good works because we are saved and desire to do right but our salvation is not dependent on the works.

Many of these left wing churches defy God's Commandments. They're sure they know better. The UCC is one of the prime offenders. They have rejected the God of the Bible.

Churches don’t have to meet your definition of a church to be one. Maybe the government or God will give you the job of determining what’s a church and what isn’t. Get your resume in early.

Knowing my Bible has kept me out of a lot of trouble through the years and has brought me to where I am today.

Interesting that the big, bad RCC didn't make the NCC cut.

A church is just a place where His people meet to learn and fellowship - For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them.” (Matthew 18:20).

As believers, we are called to tell people the truth. If one chooses to listen and follow it's a wonderful thing. If one chooses to turn their back, it's sad.
