Southern Baptist Convention Throws Out Saddleback Church

[Thebrownblob]

Yes I believe in seeking to follow the teachings of Jesus as revealed to us through the Holy Spirit. I agree with this.

You must belong to a very quiet church with the women being silent.

Perhaps instead of trolling here about something you either don’t know anything about or are just making up your own opinion why don’t you dig a little deeper and find out what that actually means?

It is in the article.

You must not have read it with your seeming ignorance of what happened.

 

[vantexan]

Yeah I get it.

So you believe women should remain silent in church. Believe what you want to believe.

I don’t believe this aligns with the teachings of Jesus.

I don’t believe women should remain silent in church.

I believe women should be treated equal or better than equal to the men of the church.

Then you don't believe scriptures are the inspired word of God and can do whatever you like.

No one said they should be silent and that’s not even with the Bible said in context but thank you for playing

I disagree. It clearly says that. What translation are you using?

 

[Integrity]

Where are all the female Catholic priests?

And?

 

[Thebrownblob]

It is in the article.

You literally are going to take a complicated, religious matters one-sided opinion from a media outlet? OK

 

[Integrity]

Bingo

Not true.

 

[Thebrownblob]

I disagree. It clearly says that. What translation are you using?

Do you have a concordance? and you really need to stop all this talk because @BrownFlush he’s going to come in here and kick all our asses

Sounds kinda sexist.

 

[Integrity]

The one you say you read and just choose ignore the things you don’t like.

I do not ignore things I don’t like. I believe what I believe, just as you believe what you believe. No different.

Not really, I won’t rip whole parts of the book out that I don’t like just because it doesn’t suit me. Lord knows there’s a few pages I’d love to get rid of that apply to me quite a few pages actually.

I think you may want to follow your own advice here. You came to this thread.

Do you agree with the SBC decision?

 

[728ups]

I think that it is perfectly acceptable. I believe Jesus holds women in high regard.

Baptists do not share that belief

 

[Integrity]

You must not have read it with your seeming ignorance of what happened.

If that’s the way you see it.

Do you agree with the SBC decision?

I don’t.

 

[Integrity]

You literally are going to take a complicated, religious matters one-sided opinion from a media outlet? OK

I think you and others are actually complicating it.

Do you agree or disagree with the decision?

Do you agree with the SBC decision?

Doesn’t matter what I think. I’m not a SBC what does god think? What does Jesus think? Those are far more important questions then what a peon like me thinks.

They are free to make the rules they choose. If they are leading people astray, they will answer to one higher than me.

Yes.
Noted.

 

[oldngray]

If that’s the way you see it.

Do you agree with the SBC decision?

I don’t.

Yes. Doesn't matter what you want to believe. If a church wants to belong to the SBC they have to conform to its beliefs. You can always leave that church if you disagree.

Doesn’t matter what I think. I’m not a SBC what does god think? What does Jesus think? Those are far more important questions then what a peon like me thinks.

You can have an opinion but NP.

I have expressed my opinion on the questions you brought up here.
