According to Google, Christianity is the religion based on the life and teachings of Jesus Christ. In addition to that, Christians believe that Jesus Christ is the Messiah sent by God. They believe that Jesus by dying and rising from the dead made up for the sin of Adam and thus redeemed the world, allowing all who believe in him to enter heaven. Now my question is, do we really follow the teachings of Christ as expected of us as his followers or we are actually the ones as Christians intimidating and tearing each other apart?

Well, I can't speak for you but I sure can for myself and it baffles me when we talk about racism in the world when the real racist are within the four walls of the church. I mean, I'm totally amazed at why churches would speak against each other, pointing fingers at things done or shouldn't be done the way they are, all in the name of trying to justify themselves as the real followers of Christ and I just wonder why we can't leave that to him to be the judge of that.

The people to blame for this are the different church denomination founders. A church should preach repentance from sinners, faith and faithfulness from believers just as Jesus did.
But unfortunately, when people establish church they tend to bring in traditions and unnecessary doctrines which has either no scriptural background or not expressly stated.All this wrong interpretations are dividing the church.Let the church of christ of christ preach repentance, faith,faithfulness, love,given,heaven consciousness.
Not these argument about day to worship, wearing of trousers or gold chain,tithe,make up, and stupid stuff

SHALOM!

YAHSHUA NEVER TAUGHT THAT ALL WHO BELIEVED IN HIM WOULD ENTER HEAVEN.

. MATTHEW 7:12-29.

12. "Therefore all things whatsoever ye would
that men should do to you, do ye even so to them:
for this is The Law and The Prophets."
13. "Enter ye in at the Strait Gate:
for Wide is the Gate, and Broad is the Way,
that leadeth to Destruction,
and many there be which go in thereat:
14. "Because Strait is the Gate, and Narrow is The Way,
which leadeth unto Life, and few there be that find it.
15. "Beware of False Prophets,
which come to you in sheep's clothing,
but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
16. "Ye shall know them by their Fruits.
Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
17. "Even so every good tree bringeth forth Good Fruit;
but a corrupt tree bringeth forth Evil Fruit.
18. "A Good Tree cannot bring forth Evil Fruit,
neither can a Corrupt Tree bring forth Good Fuit.
19. "Every Tree that bringeth not forth Good Fruit
is hewn down, and cast into The Fire.
20. "Wherefore by their Fruits ye shall know them.
21. "Not every one that saith unto me, 'Lord, Lord,'
shall enter into The Kingdom of Heaven;
but he that doeth The Will of my Father
Which is in Heaven.
22. "Many will say to me in That Day,


'LORD, LORD, HAVE WE NOT
PROPHESIED IN THY NAME?
AND IN THY NAME
HAVE CAST OUT DEVILS?
AND IN THY NAME
DONE MANY WONDERFUL WORKS?'


23. "And then will I profess unto them,

'I NEVER KNEW YOU:
DEPART FROM ME,
YE THAT WORK INIQUITY.'


24. "Therefore whosoever heareth
these Sayings of mine, and doeth them,
I will liken him unto a Wise Man,
which built his House upon a Rock:
25. "And the rain descended, and the floods came,
and the winds blew, and beat upon that House;
and it Fell not: for it was founded upon a Rock.
26. "And every one that heareth
these Sayings of mine, and doeth them not,
shall be likened unto a Foolish Man,
which built his house upon the Sand:
27. "And the rain descended, and the floods came,
and the winds blew, and beat upon that House;
and it Fell: and Great was The Fall of it."
28. And it came to pass,
when Jesus had ended these Sayings,
the People were astonished at his Doctrine:
29. For he Taught them as One having Authority,
and not as the scribes.


YAHSHUA SAID THAT MANY WHO BELIEVED IN HIM WOULD BE REJECTED BY HIM- BECAUSE THEY DID NOT OBEY HIS TEACHINGS, AND DO THE THINGS WHICH HE SAID.

You did not know this- or are you pretending not to know that Yahshua clearly stated that?

Now my question is, do we really follow the teachings of Christ as expected of us as his followers or we are actually the ones as Christians intimidating and tearing each other apart?

Where is the "TOGETHER" that YOU say is being torn apart?

. DEUTERONOMY 22:9-11.

9. Thou shalt not sow thy vineyard with divers seeds:
lest the fruit of thy seed which thou hast sown,
and the fruit of thy vineyard, be defiled.
10. Thou shalt not plow with an ox and an ass together.
11. Thou shalt not wear a garment of divers sorts
as of woollen and linen together.


. MATTHEW 13:24-30.

24. Another Parable put he forth unto them, saying,
"The Kingdom of Heaven
is likened unto a man
which sowed Good Seed
in his Field:
25. "But while men slept,
his Enemy came
and sowed Tares among the Wheat,
and went his way.
26. "But when the blade was sprung up,
and brought forth fruit,
then appeared the tares also.
27. "So the servants of the householder
came and said unto him,


'SIR, DIDST NOT THOU
SOW GOOD SEED IN THY FIELD?
FROM WHENCE THEN
HATH IT TARES?'


28. "He said unto them,

'AN ENEMY HATH DONE THIS.'

The Servants said unto him,

'WILT THOU THEN
THAT WE GO
AND GATHER THEM UP?'


29. "But he said,

'NAY; LEST WHILE YE
GATHER UP THE TARES,
YE ROOT UP ALSO
THE WHEAT WITH THEM.
30. 'LET BOTH GROW TOGETHER
UNTIL THE HARVEST:
AND IN THE TIME OF HARVEST
I WILL SAY TO THE REAPERS,


"GATHER YE TOGETHER
FIRST THE TARES,
AND BIND THEM IN BUNDLES
TO BURN THEM:
BUT GATHER THE WHEAT
INTO MY BARN.' "


SOME PEOPLE ARE FAITHFUL BELIEVERS IN YAHSHUA, AND OBEDIENT OF THE GOSPEL.

Others are EVIL SEEDS- like YOURSELF.

We cannot afford to get them mixed up together.

Oral Roberts once prayed to know: "How can I know Jesus?"
He was answered: "READ MATTHEW, MARK, LUKE, JOHN, and The Book of ACTS-
THREE TIMES IN THIRTY DAYS!"

He did it on his knees.
At the end of the thirty days, he testified that he now
knew Jesus "better than he knew any man on the Face of The Earth!"


-Kenneth Copeland.

IT IS VERY SIMPLE: ANY SUPPOSED CHRISTIANS WHO DO NOT DO WHAT ORAL ROBERTS DID- IMMEDIATELY THEY HEAR THIS TESTIMONY- ARE FAKE CHRISTIANS.

Well, I can't speak for you but I sure can for myself and it baffles me when we talk about racism in the world when the real racist are within the four walls of the church.

WHO THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT: "WE?"

Just because your church is bleeped-up beyond all recognition, it does not follow that the rest are FUBAR, also.

Keep you Hypocrisy to yourself!

Or, if that becomes impossible, surely you are a Big Boy, and can use the toilet by yourself.

(Please remember: WATER- not TISSUE PAPER!)

I mean, I'm totally amazed at why churches would speak against each other, pointing fingers at things done or shouldn't be done the way they are, all in the name of trying to justify themselves as the real followers of Christ and I just wonder why we can't leave that to him to be the judge of that.

HAVING DECLARED THAT IT WAS BAD TO DO THAT- YOU THEN WENT ON TO DO EXACTLY THE SAME THING, YOURSELF!

This is consistent with JESUIT CONFUSIONARY TACTICS.

WHY should Churches speak against one another?

I wonder what fool taught them to do that?

Oh- I know the guy!

. MATTHEW 18:15-20.

15. "Moreover if thy Brother shall trespass against thee,
go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone:
if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy Brother.
16. "But if he will not hear thee,
then take with thee one or two more,


'THAT IN THE MOUTH
OF TWO OR THREE WITNESSES
EVERY WORD MAY BE ESTABLISHED.'


17. "And if he shall neglect to hear them,
tell it unto the Church:
but if he neglect to hear the Church,
let him be unto thee as an Heathen man and a publican.
18. "Verily I say unto you,


'WHATSOEVER YE
SHALL BIND ON EARTH
SHALL BE BOUND IN HEAVEN:
AND WHATSOEVER
YE SHALL LOOSE ON EARTH
SHALL BE LOOSED IN HEAVEN.'


19. "Again I say unto you,

'THAT IF TWO OF YOU
SHALL AGREE ON EARTH
AS TOUCHING ANY THING
THAT THEY SHALL ASK,
IT SHALL BE DONE FOR THEM
OF MY FATHER WHICH IS IN HEAVEN.'


20. "For where two or three
are gathered together in my Name,
there am I in the midst of them."


THE LORD YAHSHUA HIMSELF COMMANDED THAT WE SETTLE OUR DIFFERENCES AS SOON AS WE FIND THEM.

SILLY ME- I thought that HIS Words were ALWAYS Wisdom-of-God!

I think the differences are good. At least in this world. Having a single church would result in a traditionalist disaster like Catholic, etc.

All organized denominations eventually end up with questionable doctrine or practice and it is normal so long as we trust humans to run them. That's why everybody should be free to chose, stand with and practice their own understanding of Scripture.
