This isn't a real church in a Christian sense, as far as I can tell.

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.

To: Tell It Right

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.

"32 Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them."

Seems clear enough.

United Church of Christ - Are they related to the Unitarian Universalists? Just trying to keep score here.

The "church" I mentioned above is one of those that has the "United" in it.

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.

The UCC church is notoriously leftist.. along the same lines as the Unitarian Universalist crowd.

In August of 1997 the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) estabalished a "Full Communion Partnership" with the UCC and two other Reformed denominations through the adoption of the "Formula of Agreement".

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.

No surprise.

“Naples United Church of Christ”

I wonder if Christ would approve of His Church doing that?

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.
