We worked so hard for a Non-Denom caucus, I thought I'd post a thread for your perusal.

I forgot to add you to your own ping list. You might have been overlooked, but never forgotten. :-D

I guess by definition, any church becomes a "denomination" if people REFER to it by a name that represents certain principles it holds that differentiate it from others. For example, people talk about the "Saddleback" or "Willow Creek"-type churches, suggesting that those non-denominational churches are already, in fact, denominations.

On the other hand, a "renegade" denominational church, say, a conservative Presbyterian church that rebels against the leadership, nevertheless remains "Presbyterian."

I know of a group that calls themselves “Christians gathered to the Lord’s name” yet that is not the name you’d find on their building or in a phone book. They are the Tunbridge Wells Plymoth Brethren. They believe that the verse “where two or more are gathered in my name, I am in the midst” only applies to them because they don’t take a name for themselves. If anyone takes a name, denominates themselves, this verse no longer applies and the Lord is not in their midst. I consider them the most right wing in the effort to be “non denominational”. It’s shameful to be so hungup on such things.
