If it's an outreach program, they should be delighted that they are getting non-Christians to attend, and that they are getting a chance to evangelize them.

That IS the problem xzins..Evangelization should be done in the workplace and the schools and the neighborhood..People should be well taught and know the gospel well from their personal bible study (a mark of a mature Christian) and from sound teaching from the pulpit...

Bringing in the unsaved for regular services by its nature dumbs down the sermon...it has to be aimed at giving a salvation message...that is MILK to the mature..you stunt their growth and maturity xzins.

It is NOT the job of the pastor to save the unsaved IN the church service..It is the job of every believer to give the gospel and let the spirit of God work

Can you give me a biblical example of anyone being saved IN a home church in the scripture?

No but I can give an example of someone [ ;>) ] not reading the post closely. One is an outreach program and the other is a service. One does not get communion and the other should. That is: I AGREED with you and you didn't even recognize it. (Too shocking to contemplate....!)

As far as what shape an outreach program can take, the Apostle Paul answers that he become all things to all people that by all means he might win some.
