Forming a radical church!
-
Ok ok....I'mtalking about a new group counterweight against megachurch excesses .Primitive chrisianity that exits before Jesus and will continue till the end of times..
Hope the christians here can give me some ideas how to form a group and hopefully build a congregation big enough for a small chapel.thanks..
Btw evangelism seems lame as most sporeans just think of 5Cs and talking about them the spirit of christ , they will tend to give you a blank look as if you're from another planet
-
So who is going to lead this congregation of yours ?
There are many radical churches out there.
Maybe u wanna join the Church of No Name . eh ?

I want to draw people away from NCC new creation church to tell them it's ok to be poor but happy christians living without pastors sermons..no tithes but help your fellow men some sort like beneficient guild
-
Modern pastors have become too worldly,how then they can lead the rest against materialistic and sensual world

firstly. most important is - is it biblical?
what do you believe about God,
what do you believe about Jesus
what do you believe about sin
what do you believe about the bible
what do you believe about creation
what do you believe about salvation
i think these are the foundation truths that must be laid down before building a church.
what you have now, is a movement, not a church.

Yeah also away from sola scriptura stuff...a holy bible is just a book ...that's one thing that catholics got it right

What u talking about ? No Tithe , no pastor.. ???
Primitive Christianity ? lol..
So.. no rules no nothing , no teachings, no purpose, u might as well be a monk and join buddhism . But then again , at least the monks still got followings n teachings and purpose.

sounds like a movement with the potential to become a meaningless cult. lol
what's so radical about sitting around in a circle twiddling our thumbs? since your vision has no purpose, no teachings, no doctrine, no leader, no members, no future?
wait, i take back my words. no potential to become a cult either. lol
yep, shake shake shake the world, back at ya. rofl

Most importantly we need to share love around and end this useless debates...did not jesus said the greatest commandment is
Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.' The second is this: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no commandment greater than these." (NIV, Mark 12:28-31).

but you said, you don't want sola scriptura wat. then what's the value of quoting the bible?

How many even pastors do this on a day to day basis? Yet they are able to study theology in colleges...sad

I'm saying not blindly worshipping the bible did not say you cannot use it as a reference

sola scriptura means all basis of truth is based on the bible. which means using the bible as the reference for truth, and not merely what man says.
i see that this movement is going to sink soon like a leaky boat, if you don't even know what you're talking about. lol.

No I'm just a simple man that wants to group a hardcore like minded christians who are willing to shake the conventional church way of doing things
-
Shake shake shake the room....

simple man or simple minded?
so far, i think you belong to the latter.

shake shake shake the world..? pfft.
anyway you haven't answered the original questions:
what do you believe about God,
what do you believe about Jesus
what do you believe about sin
what do you believe about the bible
what do you believe about creation
what do you believe about salvation
