We have one up here where I live, and their two largest emblems are the rainbow flag, and a 15 foot wide Black Lives Matter banner stretched across the church right above the main entrance.
I don't recall seeing a cross anywhere. Seems like a very active "church" but I suspect it isn't God they are pushing.
They had a car wash recently with young girls holding signs, and my first thought was that it was some kind of cheerleader/soccer/softball thing, but...no. It was a fund raiser for Black Lives Matter, a Marxist organization that doesn't believe parents should raise their kids, doesn't believe in God, and is pushing racism.
And there are a lot of people who appear to be operating under the delusion it is Christianity when it is fundraising for Marxists.
Yep, much like the United Methodist Church is not Methodist at all but more of a meeting place for liberals seeking affirmation of their sins.
Seems clear enough.
The Return of Christ with
The Saints will be Earths
Grand Recovery.
United Church of Christ - Are they related to the Unitarian Universalists? Just trying to keep score here.
Big surprise.
I went to one in one of the "cradles" of the War of Independence in Lexington, MA (my wife wanted to go to a craft fair there) and while I wasn't much interested in the craft fair, I was kind of interested in checking out the trappings of the church. (I was unaware what a "United Church of Christ" was at the time)
As my wife looked at craft stuff, I was checking out all the banners on the walls, and I saw one in the teen area that said (I have to paraphrase) "Don't let anyone tell you what is right and what is wrong. You must decide that for yourself."
I read that a few times, and pondered just what that meant, and why it was on a wall viewed by teenagers in a church. I couldn't believe it.
Metropolitan Church is amongst that group as well.
Sodom and Gomorrah,,,
Could it have been worse?
Oh… the UCC. No surprise there.
The UCC church is notoriously leftist.. along the same lines as the Unitarian Universalist crowd.
says a LOT about the congregation...
Therefore:
Lutheran (EL C S*A) Ping!
* as of August 19, AD 2009, a liberal protestant SECT, not part of the holy, catholic and apostolic CHURCH.
Christ is Risen!
“If God doesn’t judge America, he owes Sodom and Gomorrah an apology.” – Ruth (Bell) Graham, the wife of Rev. Billy Graham
“Church of Christ”?
No surprise.
Its not a church, wolf in sheep’s clothing.
…………….
The Bible did warn us of those who dress up and pretend to be something else.
“Naples United Church of Christ”
I wonder if Christ would approve of His Church doing that?
That must be the Quisling branch of the sect ?
Matthew 18:6
Please don’t confuse Church of Christ (non-denominational) with United Church of Christ.
They are as theologically far removed from each other as is possible- and even that may well be an ‘apples to motorcycles’ comparison.
