Your experiences sound like my own with regard to churches etc.

I think any congregation older than about a year and a half is already deep into traditions of men etc. Hard to prevent. Sigh.

Thanks for your kind words. Welcome to the TP thread!

LUB,

Yeah..its hard to make yourself fit. I tried at first and just couldn't do it. God's people are a peculiar people, they just don't always fit. My take on it is this...the rivers of living water flow away from the throne of God, if you are going with the current you will move farther and farther away from God. Swimming against the current to move closer is harder and takes alot more effort. For that reason, I won't follow men, they go with the flow.
