But I hear conservative churches are experiencing revival and even Muslims are being converted...
Oh, I'm so relieved.
“It is a dilemma, because in this business it’s not really possible to increase production,” he added.
If you’d stick to what the BIBLE teaches in the first place, that might help!
Christians in Sweden are abandoning the church of Satan. My cousin in Lund explained it to me.
When churches abandon principle to fill their pews, the spiritual value is lost, as is the meaning of worship. God makes the rules, not men.
Plenty of buyers, no doubt.
Good point——some of these liberals get to thinking it’s “their church”.
Do it “their way”....or else.
“The absolutely dominant reason is that one simply does not believe in God. Then it’s only natural to believe one should not be a member either,” Larsson said

I see a different reason for people to turn away ,, the Church left the people.
Hmmm.... Could this be one of the reasons they're losing members?
/S
Abandon hope all ye who abandon the Gospel.
Likely a sizzle percentage of the former parishioner will convert to Islam.
When you take God out of the church, then why bother going to church?
I thought somewhere in the bible there is a reference that we were made in his image and that women were actually kind of an afterthought as Eve was made from Adam’s rib. Not that I’m complaining in any way shape or form. Women are G-d’s most beautiful creation.
Of course we screwed things up when we gave them the right to vote. Jimmy Carter, almost Gore (- 537 votes) Obama and almost the most dangerous woman you could imagine for an enemy, well I think I’ve made my point.
Is there a biblical reference that we were made in HIS image?
Ladies here please do not seek to have me banned. You’re all alright but you are seriously outnumbered by gals who vote their feelings and as a lapsed Catholic I’m a little rusty on the Liturgy. So is our current pope as far as I can tell.
Well this could be fun ... I’m kind of on vacation even though I have tons of things I should be doing but just so you know when the water heater blew out after 15 years on a 12 year warranty we fixed that first thing without sweating a single joint. Of course we got a little sweaty but at least I’m in hot water again. That’s the way I like it. Great motivation.
Playing but serious about the biblical reference?
;-)
Mission accomplished.
I dont consider it a church in any real terms of the word anyway.
Yes the Bible does say we are made in HIS image and God is referred to by the masculine pronoun throughout, although in a reference to the trinity the plural pronoun is used.
But it seems that the church of Sweden has long since ceased to care what the Bible says anyway.
Their church has become a hollow joke, thats why.
