After all, the good Calvinist teachers almost all come from the PCA.Glenn E.

That is so far from the truth. The PCA is a conservative, Bible believing church that does not allow gay and lesbian pastors, we are pro-life, supporters of Israel, marriage between a man and woman and we believe the Bible to be inerrant, both New and Old Testaments. Even a lot of Conservatives aren't aware of the difference. Usually any Presbyterian Church without USA is a good sound Church.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6043971967398769903.post-28684766906117497732009-05-17T19:46:00.000-05:002009-05-17T19:46:00.000-05:00Oh!

Probably, yes.<br /><br />Regarding the gay agenda, I think it's part of the "New World Order" we're supposed to embrace. Or something.

ELCA, UCC, UMC, Episcopal Church - what is it about homosexuality that leads them to a love affair with it?<br /><br />I think you're confusing PCA with PCUSA. Presbyterian Church in America is the fundamental one yet. PCUSA has been bad for so long I think you'd be hard-pressed to find one that had a fundamental pastor.Glenn E.

But you know, in a way denominations are becoming meaningless because folks who hunger after the Word can be found in any and all of them (and there's such a wide difference between individual churches within a given denimination - the UCC for example - over 75% of them reject the official stance on gay marriage).<br /><br />Ironically, three of the bloggers on my blogroll are PCA members, and they are the most doctrinally sound, Bible-searching Bereans around. One of them, from "Bathsheba's Children", researched, wrote and uploaded an in-depth, six-week study on the book of Ruth for her church's women's Bible study. Several of them link to Westminster Seminary bookstore, and study and use the materials there. <br /><br />I'm not defending the PCA's stance on issues - don't get me wrong. It doesn't really surprise me anymore because mainstream Protestantism has gone downhill a long time ago. I'm just thinking that for an individual Christian, his or her particular denomination has become absolutely meaningless (which is perhaps as it should be). I think of myself, for 5 years a conservative evangelical trapped in a UCC church - with the manila membership certificate and all. I joined because any church with Christ in the title, I thought, had to be Gospel-preaching and the UCC's real agenda was obscured during the membership classes. When my husband's eyes were finally opened and he agreed we should leave, I took great pleasure in burning that stupid certificate!<br /><br />I also think there are some (no doubt many) individual PCA pastors who are faithful to the Gospel and perhaps ignore their denom's "party line"? Jay Adams, for example, is a Presbyterian. He's one hard-hitting dude. Whatever the case, it's sad that nowadays true Gospel-preaching churches are in a distinct minority.Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15411152395819469453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6043971967398769903.post-23324440281289199442009-05-14T20:39:00.000-05:002009-05-14T20:39:00.000-05:00Screwtape lives.

They are virtually indistinguishable from the world and will deny their God, their Bible and their common sense to support whatever the world wants to hear.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
