To: Jacquerie

Jacquerie,

I do not have a church, God does, but I do not. Nor do I admit people into THE church. God does, but I have no say in it. Who does God admit? The Bible is clear that it is those individuals who recognize Jesus as the Son of God and who seek to do his will. Interestingly, the Bible also gives guidelines for “expelling an immoral brother.” (I Cor. 5) Therefore, if one is practicing a sin willfully with no intent to remove that sin from him/herself and further asking THE church to overlook it, even though everyone knows it is unacceptable to God, the Bible has authorized removal of that person until such time as they have repented and returned to God’s way.

It would seem we are authorized by God to make judgment calls? Would you deny that?

Sincerely,
Daisy Mae

Do you deny that Congress has the power to make rules for the government and regulation of our Armed Forces?

I do not have a church

Neither did the Quakers of Pa. Neither could they govern.
