How mass of a number have they crept up with, if two of us have never even heard of them? You'd think creeping huge churches would be more noticeable.
I suspect what's happening here is you slapped on a label for a group you don't like and expect the world to know what the label means. If you're not against huge churches, who are you against? And, if you're all about being against, when do you consider what you're for?
I really am against grace-only people. I know their word is "word of faith," but since "word of faith" is a phrase in the Bible and they distorted is so much, it has stopped being biblical, I won't use that phrase often to describe them.
They are into believing people can heal themselves if they get into the program and believe just right. That's not biblical. They believe everyone ought to make them rich. That's not biblical.
I am against grace-only people because they teach a false gospel. I am FOR God's message, his Bible, God.
No need to keep up with the latest in the gossip column to figure out where I stand. (Which probably also explains why I've heard of both Hillsong and Illuminati, but don't know either.)
I am also very much against any group of people who spend their time thinking everyone should act just like them. You're talking to someone whose only choices of "fashion" are overalls or dresses that don't bind at the waist. Since I also can't wear a bra, the dress requires a slip, making it too hot in the summer, and "dress," so too cold in the winter. SO you are telling someone stuck in overalls who has a tendency to be asked if I'm a farmer by other city folks about once a month to assume I should be getting decked out and singing just the right songs every week when you see me. (I also cannot sing!!!)
Not ever! Not ever going to happen, but that's the exact message you gave me in your version of a "Bible-believing Church."
You're so busy being against a group I'm not even sure if it does describe the grace-only people (because I only meet them on here and don't ask how they're dressed or what they do for church) you have absolutely no idea you're also putting down so many other people too!
THAT IS DISTURBING! And that's from the lady who has learned not to roll my eyes at that once-a-monther who thinks he's original for asking some chick at the grocery store or walking down a street right smack in the middle of a city, "are you a farmer?" I don't even think they're disturbing. (Just not very original. lol)

God's got me moving on my hothead/reactionary personality. This is not to be confused with God has FIXED my hothead/reactionary personality. (Be nice if he did, but apparently not his plan.)
