Religion getting in the way of r/s ?

methodist is the one with the power of 'speech of the tongue' thing??Originally posted by M©+square:New fundamentalist? What's up with the new movement? Tell me more or do you want me to start a new thread on this?
Personally, i prefer Methodist churches too.
they hv this session where everyone starts saying prayers....then suddenly someone starts toking very loudly and in great emotion....scary le....
sorry ah christian.....but i really find all these....errr too chim for me lah
-
sorry i believe in buddhism.. but er.. liberal buddhism haha... got eat beefOriginally posted by M©+square:You're from CH also?
Funny, how come i'm considered conservative believer but i don't agree with the leader?
Now we got two kinds of Christianity, conservative and modern(liberal you mean?) in the same church....consistency please.
I personally believe CH is a liberal church. -
Har? Blur liao. I don't think it's methodist.Originally posted by a_splash:methodist is the one with the power of 'speech of the tongue' thing??

It's the charismatic movement that practise loud and emotional tongues.. -
Are you some kinda vampire/zombie/undead?Originally posted by rainee:He told me that the leader has been subtly "referring" to him in every session as the one who is in an "unholy" r/s...

Could be just me but I feel these new fangled charismatic churches have this fundamentalist streak in them, very common to people who are fresh converts to the faith.No offence intended though.Originally posted by M©+square:Har? Blur liao. I don't think it's methodist.

Whoa....i sense it directing at someone(maybe not?).Originally posted by LazerLordz:Could be just me but I feel these new fangled charismatic churches have this fundamentalist streak in them, very common to people who are fresh converts to the faith.No offence intended though.
Ha! share with me an example? -
hey rainee tell us what is the cell group? we will blacklist it to stop the bs.
Hmm .. I think it is still better to change church, too much bs in that church liao. -
Hmm, this depends on my bf? If he allows me to reveal it, I will. But if he says no, I will respect his decisionOriginally posted by Icemoon:hey rainee tell us what is the cell group? we will blacklist it to stop the bs.

Grace Assembly---- Charismatic?? -

Thank u for ur comments....i regard it as positive...the bible says only like a child one can inherit the kingdom of GOD. I was too skeptical last time, preferring to use logic/reason (SIS's favourite). I was like him.Originally posted by M©+square:I have many churches in my mind when it comes to this.
Yeah, the Mega-organisation in Jurong as well.
These are the blacksheeps who resulted in so many people rejecting grace of salvation and backsliders to happen at the same time.
Turnover rate of Christianity in megachurches is very high.
I wonder what they have done.....
p.s I realise your post are very childlike/ideal(?) - i used to be like you. That's why you should stay this way till the second coming.
But i find flaws in this attitude.
Now I have more faith.
With regards to megachurches, I can only agree with their message of GRACE, dun really approve of certain issues.
But we are still one body in Christ. I will not judge whether they are correct to interfere in relationships. There are some issues in the bible regarding this which must be discussed out. I was a victim too. Want to start a new thread?
As Christians, we will have to let non-believers see the positive side of Christianity, not the ugly side. -
Some methodist churches I heard also have charismatic services. Catholic ones too.Originally posted by M©+square:Har? Blur liao. I don't think it's methodist.

Think so far only Bible Presbyterian/Presbyterian do not use tongues.
That's the reason I left for a Presbyterian church. -
Since when was it wrong for Christians to go out with non-believers? I find this very disturbing. How can love be wrong, when God = love?

The issue of unequal yoke.Originally posted by SingaporeMacross:Since when was it wrong for Christians to go out with non-believers? I find this very disturbing. How can love be wrong, when God = love?
I was troubled by it too. -
This is the reason why I cannot see the logic of why they said Christians cannot date non-believers, and wud even go to the extent of trying to break up the r/s...Originally posted by SingaporeMacross:Since when was it wrong for Christians to go out with non-believers?

Hihi.. Rainee.. Erm.. I think u shd tell yr bf tat u wanna join his cell grp so tat u will be able to know more abt him & his cell grp members.. And I think yr bf shd make a stand for he, himself & u coz every member in the cell grp is accountable to the cell leader.. Sry to say I'm frm CHC too.. But everybody has their own believe.. Erm.. Attending the cell grp will help u to have more knowledge of God.. U dun have to really bother abt the members.. Some members might be friendly but some are not.. So juz make friend with the friendly ones.. Though as a new born christian, we r always been told tat we shdn't have non-believer as our future.. But we do have faith in our gf/bf, forcing them to church is not a good thing lo.. But if they come willingly, we will be happy.. But we will help them to grow to know more abt God and not prosecuting them.. Erm.. Wat e leader had said somehow correct & incorrect.. Having a non-believer as yr the other is not unholy lo.. But the leader shd encourage yr bf to help u grow more in God instead of asking hm to break this relationship.. Tat's a cruel thing to do.. Sry to have condemn tat cell grp leader.. But I m juz stating the fact..

In fact, I'm helping to mediate (along with another guy) between this 'couple'. The girl is Protestant and the guy is Catholic. But she has been taught that it is wrong to go out with 'unbelievers'. Sad.

Hmm...a catholic is a believer too.Originally posted by SingaporeMacross:In fact, I'm helping to mediate (along with another guy) between this 'couple'. The girl is Protestant and the guy is Catholic. But she has been taught that it is wrong to go out with 'unbelievers'. Sad.
Is the girl from a very fundamentalist church: BP? -
I do not know how to describe it in terms of denomination. I will not mention names, but it has branches in Woodlands and Tampines.Originally posted by laoda99:Hmm...a catholic is a believer too.

I was from that church. HAHAHAA!!!!Originally posted by SingaporeMacross:I do not know how to describe it in terms of denomination. I will not mention names, but it has branches in Woodlands and Tampines.
Hai...
Too many things happening in churches. -
Got live telecast of service one right?Originally posted by M©+square:I was from that church. HAHAHAA!!!!

Is that why u lose faith?
I think it is very strange...I always thought Charismatic churches are more liberal than Presbyterian/BP....it is strange that they are even more staunch than reformed churches regarding this issue!!!!! -
Laoda: Demomination doesn't mean a certain doctrine or belief system.Originally posted by laoda99:Hmm...a catholic is a believer too.

I've seen BPs and Methodist more fervent and meek and practical than anyother christians(in other denominations) i've seen.
If we are talking about Christianity and about the body of Christ.
Let us not drive towards which demomination.
Let's see it as a individual conviction and belief yea?
Like you've said, it's a relationship, not religion.
