Sad to say, the Methodist Church is no longer the church it was when our family started attending back in 1946.

Today they may not even be a church, except in name only. And they may not even be Methodist either.

My mother and Dad professed salvation in Christ there in 1947, as did my younger brother and sister.
It was just a small country church that had no teaching text, just a Bible.

Even before I was 14, I could see it changing as a new young Seminary student and his fiance come to minister, and begin to teach different messages, such as dancing was OK, and going to movies was OK. And all went the social gospel after that.

I grew up up the EUB denomination which merged with the Methodists in 1968. My parents then left the church and helped form a Baptist church. At the time I was naive about issues.I am disgusted with what is occuring in this denomination. Does anyone know how to officially disown the Methodist church as I want out. I am still considered a life member.

I’ll bite “such as dancing was OK, and going to movies was OK” —> what’s wrong with dancing or going to movies?
