Just a bad one....There always seems to be someone trying to change the church ala the reformation.....The church says NO. They start their own church. And so it goes...generation after generation. Doesn't make it right, but that's how we've gotten so many denominations....

In our town there are three Baptist Churches, two splitting off the first....Two Lutheran (who won’t even give communion to each other....Always a reason to divide, seldom a reason to unite in Christ...

It seems they are always changing to become more secular never the opposite.

Wow, you really know a lot about the activities, and especially their motivations, of the churches in your town. I'm really impressed with your knowledge. You must spend a lot of time attending Baptist and Lutheran churches to know so much about them.

And they ALL are taking their actions because they want to become more secular? Just Wow. What a bunch they are, not like you, for sure.

Do you think they will ever listen to you? If only they would, if only they would, eh?
