why is it not important? is it wrong to study the way that people express their faith?Originally posted by breytonhartge:why is this even important??? All these things are superficial, when are we going to learn that God wants our hearts not our outward appearances. -
In case some people don't know what I'm talking about, let me explain a bit.
Basically the 'High Church' is Anglicanism leaning towards Catholic tradition, but the 'Low Church' is Anglicanism leans more towards the Protestant side. -

what is more important is that PEOPLE LEAN TOWARDS GOD. When are you going to learn that all this thing about Church etc... is all so artificial, so fake and so superficial. Are we even keeping anything of what God says we are to do? Are we doing things the way Jesus would want us to? Are we keeping God's feasts and festivals? Are we true to the original concept of Christianity?
We celebrate adpoted pagan festivals like easter, lent and christmas... why? These have no association with what God would want us to do. Before you argue the point, go and read the bible and show me anywhere in there that we are to keep these festivals.
Again I say, God wants our hearts, He is not concerned with outward apperarances, what does it matter if you are an anglician and lean towards the protestant way of doing things or towards the catholic way of doing things? It all is for nought if God does not have your heart. That is the most important thing. Why study how people express their faith? Will it draw you closer to God? No. You get closer to God by spending time with Him, in prayer, in reading His word. -
breyton:
sorry, but refresh my memory, which church do you attend again?
i heard something like this from someone elsewhere... -
no particular church in general. I attend NCC when I am back in Singapore. But then too, the teaching there is lacking depth. Not that I am saying that it is bad, Ps Prince has some revelation, but needs to go deeper. We can always go deeper into God's Word.Originally posted by SingaporeMacross:breyton:

i am highly disturbed that you can label Christmas as a pagan festival. -
It is like saying you just want to lead a civilian life without bothering about politics and government.Originally posted by stellazio:i duno wad is high or low..all i know is that i go to st andrew's cathedral..
