Lol, someone is excited XD

It actually looks pretty nice.

@the_lost-journal

… Sorry I seam kinda rude, I am still annoyed at Rae…

I forgive you, but please don’t let it happen again, there is no reason to blow up at someone you can’t see. And please let that go with her, she never meant to harm you. Holding grudges will not help you as a person, or even a follower of Christ. Forgive as Christ for…[Read more]

Oh, sorry, I just realized @the_lost-journal that Sara said the same thing I said, sorry

@the_lost-journal sorry I’m a little late to the party.

How big is your church?

50ish people, we don’t really keep count.

What is one thing you disagree/don’t understand with a different denomination?

Where do you want to start? lol

What is your opinion on Mary?

She is a woman, a woman who gave birth to Jesus, or Jesus in the flesh. Which does n…[Read more]

@theducktator @the_lost-journal

Ok, I’ll try to clear up the confusion then!

For not understanding, I don’t understand the whole set up of a contemporary non-denominational church. There is no structure whatsoever, and it confuses me greatly. XD

As for structure within the service, this is going to depend largely upon the church to be honest. Our…[Read more]

@the_lost-journal

I fully believe there isn’t a single human being on this earth who worships Mary.

I mean, like Stephie said, there could be, but I’m not accusing anyone particular of this. I’ve just heard of people treating her that way and wanted to express my opinion on that. : )

@kefa @theducktator

I don’t understand why they don’t dress up…

@the_lost-journal

I disagree with this a little. You cannot go off JUST the Bible, you need prayer too. And plus others can teach you a lot about God. So no, I do not “just” believe in the Bible.

Well…

Yes, you do need prayer, and God can reveal things to you. But God will NEVER say something to you that contradicts the Bible. If the Bible doe…[Read more]

@stephie

Lolll, true. This Protestant’s probably going to stay out of it. XD

@rae

Mostly what I don’t understand with different denominations is how people can read their Bibles and still believe what they believe.

If I answered, I’d become the enemy of a lot of people.

Now I’m curious…If you do answer, I promise not to burn you at the sta…[Read more]

@the_lost-journal   Yay, more questions!

How big is your church? (if you go to church.)

Probably around 60 people total. I just counted 58, but I probably missed a few people. I’d guess on a given Sunday we usually have 45-50 or so.

I’m probably going to start an arg…[Read more]

@the_lost-journal

Oh I’m not leaving!

I think I might be able to rephrase what the others are saying. To us, it’s strange to pray to Mary because it is never mentioned in the Bible. It always says we should pray to God, it never says to pray to anyone else.

Acts 9:36-41: Peter prays to Tabitha, a disciple who had died. Hm, why would he pray to a…

I’ve made some memes at your expense….

Please tell me I can post them XD XD

@the_lost-journal

I fully believe there isn’t a single human being on this earth who worships Mary.

Eeek I hate it when people say that, because it’s like denying that anyone goes too far with the Marian doctrines. I think that there is a fine line that some people have indeed crossed. However, I do uphold the fact that never in the Catholic cat…[Read more]

@the_lost-journal

How big is your church? (if you go to church.)

Maybe a little over a hundred? I think? Our old church was smaller though, closer to about 50 or 60 members.

What is one thing you disagree/don’t understand with a different denomination?

I think I could go on and on about this since there are little nuances in different d…[Read more]

@the_lost-journal

How big is your church? (if you go to church.)

My parish has about 100 people, give or take ten, coming to each mass. More on the last Sunday of each month, because they’ll come visiting since we’ve got the kids singing and lunch after and stuff.

What is one thing you disagree/don’t understand with a different denomination?

Oh d…[Read more]

@rae @the_lost-journal

where in the Bible does it talk about praying to Mary or any other saint? And by Bible I mean the original 66 books, not the extra ones in the Catholic faith, since putting my personal faith aside, those books are controversial.

This is what I mean about “believing the Bible and ONLY the Bible”. Like, where in the Bible does…[Read more]

Oh, I should answer this question.

@the_lost-journal

A little. Still leaves some room for questions.

What I am understanding is, you believe that Jesus told us to continue baptism and such, but matrimony is more of just a bonding with one another under God, rather than holding any sacramental value?

I’m going to quickly define two words…[Read more]

@the_lost-journal

How big is your church? (if you go to church.)

Ummm it depends on the Sunday lol

We have a pretty big youth group that meets on Wednesdays (like 40-50) but only about ten of them come to church on Sundays.

Total services at my church would probably me about 40 people on average? I’m not sure lol…we have a lot of empty chairs…[Read more]

@the_lost-journal

What do you mean by that?

If I answered, I’d become the enemy of a lot of people.

First off, we do not worship Mary, and I do not believe there is any denomination that does for that matter! And building a statue or praying to her is not a form of worship at all! People build statues for many great people through out history, are…

The amount of “vertically challenged” jokes at school in seventh and eighth grade still haunts my soul…

At least I’m taller than my mom

She’s five foot

@the_lost-journal

Wow, that is a lot! Do you go to a mega church? I assume that because you talk about lasers and fog and such.

I don’t consider it a megachurch. That might depend on your definition, but most megachurches have more than 2000 members, and we’re not that big. We do have lights and such, but there are other smaller churches who use…[Read more]
