Church, modesty, church discipline & correction

On black churches, modesty, church discipline & correction, turning from worldly to godly. Re: The Church calling out women for immodesty, & on Denominations Problems in the black church. Black churches sadly have been notorious for being full of false teachings even from America's early days . It has always bent more liberal, instead of biblical. Today some biblical black churches exist, but outside of black communities, black Americans and those on the path to citizenship, should be in a mixed church, not ethnically singular. It can open them up to truth and educate on many things the black church has wrong. But also since we are to be one in Christ, not divided. Not segregated. Today more black churches are coming under biblical leadership & teaching, and thats good. But believers looking for a church need to be knowledgeable about what to look for, (be learned on foundations biblical truths of Christianity and the Gospel), so they dont walk into a false church.  Th...

Athiest attacks Christianity & Christians without any clue.

Athiest attacks Christianity & Christians without any clue .  1. Christians shouldnt ever-ever be seeking nor pursuing a relationship with an unsaved person. We were freed from the darkness, we are not to once again chain ourselves to it (and the misery it brings with it). We are to be equally yoked; only with another true believer, where life is together in Christ and pursuing Him and holiness in life.  Also darkness doesnt run to the light, it flees it, this her no interest in dating Christians. That is good, it is a grace a hedge God has to protect believers.  2. What shes doing is a Skeptics typical tactic they throw out to avoid/deflect/distract from the main issue; sin & salvation.  If they can sit above/judge Christians then they can justify their sinful nature. Only problem is theyre not judging in truth, but self righteousness. She doesnt have the superior argument, and will one day bow to & confess Jesus is Lord, even if it is on Judgment Day....

Confused former pastor seeks clarity on faq

Q:Why do we need apologists to “apologize“ for the Bible? Why do we need people like William Lane Craig or Frank Turek or Cliff Knechte & others to speak in such confusing philosophical parameters, to explain to us concepts that should be crystal clear to anyone reading the Bible? Why do we need scholars we hear about to clear up all the thousands of misconceptions and misinterpretations of the Bible? If we put 100 people in 100 different rooms and ask them simple Christian doctrine questions like how do you get to heaven, what is the Trinity, or what is the book of Revelations about, etc. We get 100 different answers. To me, this is why Christianity is so obviously a man-made philosophy. A God would have no reason to be that confusing.  Edit: My Mormon friends tell me the exact same thing. They say, “I read the book of Mormon and don’t find it confusing. It is very clear maybe read it and you will not be confused." Muslims tell me the exact same thing about the Quran. I was...
