The majority of mission trips should be in a church's local community, not some 3rd-world country

ESPECIALLY if you're sending teenagers on them

.@SECWAR "As long as I have breath, I commit to you that I and we should NEVER allow any group—no matter how large or small—to silence us from speaking the capital “T” TRUTH:

Christ is King. He died for our sins. We are forgiven. He will come again in glory. Amen."

Yes sir.

The killing of innocent Christians in Nigeria — and anywhere — must end immediately. The Department of War is preparing for action. Either the Nigerian Government protects Christians, or we will kill the Islamic Terrorists who are committing these horrible atrocities.

GET YOU A PRESIDENT WHO CAN DO BOTH.

The American people are blessed to have a President who is fully committed to their safety and well-being — even when Senate Democrats so callously abandon them.

Reformation is not an attempt at new Christianity.

Reformation is retrieval of true Christianity.

Is this a biblically accurate statement?

Thanks to those who engaged this post. A few observations:

1. About half the disagreement comes from Eastern Orthodox, and the other from Roman Catholics. And Eastern Orthodoxy is extremely similar to others like Oriental Orthodoxy. This is telling. If you think the early church actually *does* look like just one church today, there simply is no clear winner. There is no way around this. And it's an intolerable burden to place on the private judgment of those discerning, given the alleged stakes of getting it wrong.

2. Being Protestant means you can be honest with the messiness of church history. You don't have to cherry-pick the data (whether pictures of much later frescoed or mosaicked interiors or quotes about later-developed practice or theology). You can acknowledge the massive sea-change of the 4th century (Constantine + Augustine), and how different the 2nd-3rd centuries are. For Protestants, church history is a fascinating trail you can follow wherever it leads, not a yard you have to protect from intruders.

3. The broader need is a way to distinguish what is essential vs. what is accidental in the church. For Protestants, what defines the church is simply the gospel of Jesus Christ, expressed in word and sacrament. Other external structures of the church, important as they are, are not essential. This is why we see the church as subsisting in multiple institutions, and why we can recognize the true church in expressions that look as diverse as 2nd century Alexandria, 7th century Britain, 17th century India, or contemporary Nigeria. Churches in these places can look vastly different, but they are all one church because they all have the one and same Jesus.

Recall when 2 people shouted “Jesus is Lord” and “Christ is King” at a Kamala Harris rally and she replied, “You guys are at the wrong rally.”

Many of our evangelical elites voted for that. The Lord is putting them to shame.

"When Christ shall come with shouts of acclamation and take me home, what joy shall fill my heart!

Then I shall bow in humble adoration — and there proclaim, 'My God! How great Thou art!'"

Sequential preaching is not necessarily expositional preaching.
