What is your denomination?

I go to an Evangelical Church (it’s called Faith Alliance Church, and we’re part of the Christian and Missionary Alliance!)

Did you grow up with this denomination? Are you still growing up with it?Or did you convert to it yourself?

I grew up with it, but it’s always felt like home, so I would say I…[Read more]

My whole immediate…[Read more]

Ah my answer sounds so weird. Do I make sense???

@the_lost-journal

lol 😄😁

Mmm… one reading… Multiple times a year, but only once in the day we do it. Am I understanding this weird/wrong? 😅

(btw, sorry if my answers are slow—I’m typing from my phone 😓🫤😬)

@grcr

That makes sense.

@raxforge

May I ask why?

Sure! We do church from home because God called us away from our last one. There were several unbiblical things going on in the last one that my family doesn’t agree with (issues I that haven’t really ask my parents enough about or remember well). So until God leads us to a new church, we are growing in him from hom…[Read more]

@raxforge

Yes, would love to keep talking about this! Have fun and stay safe, skiing is the best!!!!

hopefully we can continue this conversation tomorrow

@theshadow and @the_lost-journal

Uuuugh! I have so many more questions that I want to ask, and I love this conversation so much!!! But I’m skiing tomorrow so I need good rest. Good night one and all, and to all a good night!

@the_lost-journal

Whoops, must’ve forgotten…

@raxforge

Im gonna jump in with the saint answer to add that we ask the saints to intercede for us and pray for us. Such as asking for them to help us with a test or help us to have faith like them. Idk if I made that more confusing though, so I apologize in advance.

@the_lost-journal

Interesting! Oh, boy, I love this conversation! Okay, one more question for today then I should hop into bed: If that is the case with saints, why not directly pray to God and give him full credit for the marvelous deeds he can do?

@the_lost-journal

I am better at remembering people if I have a name to go along with them!

Same.

@the_lost-journal

Yeah, Anglicanism has been referred to as “Reformed Catholicism”.

I find this comment really intriguing! Could you explain?

I think it’s cool how they refused to murder the baby boys and lied to Pharoah to protect them.

@grcr

Do you have other believers with you, or is it just you and your family?

@grcr

No, we don’t go to church. We fellowship from home. 🙂

May I ask why?

@theducktator

I’m not sure…maybe the Hebrew midwives from Exodus.

Oooo, nice, that’s a good one

@the_lost-journal

No problem! 🙃

And as one of my friends said “Me and my family are non-denominational… which is basically a denomination soooo…. I don’t know.”

lol yeah 😄

@theducktator

If you don’t have a denomination, do you still go to church?

No, we don’t go to church. We fellowship from home. 🙂

@the_lost-journal

He is in the book of Jude… He is in the New Testament and is one of Jesus’ disciples.

Oh, ok, gotcha, sorry, I thought you were talking about someone in the Septuagint (idk if I’m using this term right, please correct me if I’m wrong), I’ve never referred to him as St. Jude since I don’t believe that we should pray to sai…[Read more]

*GASP* You didn’t tag me?! How dare?!?!?

@grcr

If you don’t have a denomination, do you still go to church?
