Fundamentalist posters in this thread are looking for any excuse to avoid the distinction between essentials and inessentials that has the potential to produce great interdenominational cooperation. Consider these 2 points:
(1) Billy Graham was the most effective evangelist of all time. The sense of the Holy Spirit's presence in his crusades was powerful, evne before the service. I know, because I was there early for every one of his Winnipeg crusade services. He was so effective because his association persuaded almost every denominational church in the city to meet together and pray for lost souls to come to Christ. I'm sure that has never happened there before or since! The results? Hundreds came forward nightly to commit their lives to Christ.

(2) A few years a group of about 5 or 6 vets were dining across from me in a local restaurant. They already know I was a local pastor. So they made this observation to me: "Do you know why we'll never attend a church here?" "No, why?" Because we know for a fact that even you ministers can't get along well enough to cooperate with each other!" Touche!

have to agree with number 2 / several statements have been written in these forums that are contrary to brotherhood (love thy neighbor ) can't help but wonder why a christian would want to judge another christian / wasn't it JESUS THE CHRIST that was on the cross and said "" forgive them FATHER for they know not what they do ""

Yea let there be no schism in the body. I mean some non essential things like hair, you can just cut off if it gets too long and annoying but it will just grow again. Same with toe nails.


Its called pruning.
