Thank you. Actually, I have been considering elsewhere to worship. My husband grew up in that church and he doesn't want to leave it. Thus, the predicament
There comes a time when we have to make our own choice as to what Church we are going to attend. I had to make that decision and have jhad to make it more than once as my understanding of the Word of God has grown. I started going to a non-demoninational fellowship, then begin to attend the Calvary Chapel's that originate in Southern California, loved their style of teaching, verse by verse, book by book. Which helped me grow quite a bit, but I grow to understand doctrines that they did not hold to. Which was interesting because I came to believe them by the teaching they taught by keeping the teaching in the context that it was written in. But even though they were non-demoninational, they had denominational beliefs, I stayed there for about 8 years while not agreeing with all that they taught or maybe saying believing what they taught by the Bible, but they understood it differently.
Then I found the Acts 29 group and they believed what I believed more than the Calvary's did. Finding a new Church is part of the maturing process, as we learn and understand the Bible more in our growth in the Lord, we will need to move on some times. Once the teaching of the Church you are attending had become so far from what you hold to, it is time to move on. It is not a bad thing it is just part of growing. I have seen pastor's that have grown past the denomination that they belong to and have had to remove themselves from that denomination and start a new Church.
What I like about the Acts 29 movement is that you do not have to hold to the "L" in T.U.L.I.P to be a memeber to their fellowships. They are into evangelism, Church planting, the gifts of the Spirit in an orderly fashion, no charasmatic chaos. If there is a tongue there needs to be an interpretaion, which I find Biblical and it causes people to think about what they are doing. If they do speak in a tongue and there is no interpretaion, that person knows that they need to be awhere of what they are doing.
The other thing I like is there are many who like to talk about theology that they have understood by their study of the Word of God. Which is great to me, I love sharing things I have learned though the study of God's Word. Iron sharpens iron, it also helps keep me in check and give me an oppertunity to get ideas and share ideas. Plus get other believers to help me understand the Word of God, because someone may have an angle that I have not seen yet.
