That was absolutely nutso. You better have man skills and lots of courage and determination to even attempt that. Thanks for sharing. Well worth the time.

(Christians in name only) heretics have infiltrated every major Christian denomination......if you want a church that is trying to be true to the Word find a non denominational evangelical church, particularly one in a more suburban/rural location.


Amen, and preferably one that also sings from hymnals or songs that have deep scriptural meaning IMO. I know it’s old school and not too cool anymore, but those old hymns stir the soul, especially those taken directly from scripture itself as they are God breathed.

The churches that really get me are those who the preacher plucks one or maybe two verses out of scripture if that, irrespective of context, and goes on lengthy diatribes with personal anecdotes on something they want to talk about rather than use multiple scriptures through the Bible to let God speak for Himself on a subject matter, building up, educating, and edifying the church body in the process. I’m of the opinion that the church is starving for knowledge but gets far less practical teaching than it does feel good messages and positive self help they don’t even retain past lunch.

But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

Matthew 9:13


Clearly knowing that there are NONE righteous, no not one (Psalm 14:1-3), His mercy is poured out to those who believe upon and are now reliant solely upon His righteousness and not their own self righteousness, those looking for a savior and not their righteousness to save them.

I say this regardless of denominational affiliation, and not as an excuse for non involvement in an actual true sound biblical church body, but rather as a means of actual pursuit of the one true God in our personal lives we are accountable for.

I’d argue to day that it is far better to stay home with a KJB, and sound biblical resources faithful to scripture alone over man’s doctrines than to put yourself under the myriad of different rat poisons being passed around in most churches today that keep people bound to what they need to do over what God has already done, those that get your focus on you and not God, those who complicate the simplicity of the Gospel because they place you in some process you have to do to save yourself over trusting in THE savior of mankind. Those who do also take context of scripture out in order to lessen, add to, or flat out pervert what scripture is telling us in order to further the doctrine they really believe in over what scripture is telling us.

There’s nothing worse than corrupted and misplaced faith. We like to focus on the most egregious of those in well established cults, but condone those who’ve through modern so called bibles have added to, taken away, and reinterpreted scripture in order to wrap their man made doctrines into the one true faith in Christ alone so as to add just a drop of arsenic to the bottle of water so that it destroys the entirety of water you’re consuming.

The very first thing Satan did in the garden was to get man to question God’s word by misusing what God actually said. He did the same with Christ in the wilderness. He does the same today with us with religion, and don’t think he doesn’t. That’s his game, and that’s all he has to do to get you off track and cripple you.

The one key element in all of life is “who do you believe”. Is it God, or man? One is the truth, and the other just one more great deception. I trust the source, the scripture alone, namely the only one we know that’s come from the original text from the churches of Ancient Greece we’ve had handed down to us for 2000 years or so, the KJB. God did not wait 1900 years or so to deliver His trustworthy word for mankind to be discovered in the land of Gnosticism.

God also did not put His church under the authority of a denomination that says there are many ways that lead to God and God’s salvation, or one that put so little faith in Christ’s intercession that it puts a human being alongside God as a co-intercessor to God as our co-high priest.


This is the narrow way Christ spoke of that few would be that find it. It’s not in what man says but what God says. That’s the same thing that has been going on from the garden to present.

Do you do church at home? Genuine question

The church is the people



quote:

Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?

1 Corinthians 3:16


quote:

As Jesus left the temple and was walking away, His disciples came up to Him to point out its buildings.

“ Do you see all these things?” He replied. “Truly I tell you, not one stone here will be left on another; every one will be thrown down.”

Matthew 24:1-2




quote:

But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.

John 4:23


quote:

When Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, He yielded up His spirit. At that moment the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth quaked and the rocks were split.

Matthew 27:50-51



Christ’s Church is not in a building, nor an organization, or a denomination. It is in the hearts of those who have believed solely upon Jesus as their savior, and none other, not a church, denomination, leader, tradition, or themselves.

Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life.

quote:

The Catholic Church sure is an amazing organization. Only one that has lasted since antiquity. Wonder why that is.


Christianity is older
Women need direction, and men are supposed to be the spiritual leaders for just that reason, and yet they’re falling down on the job.

This country needs to toss out their modern bibles, get back to the KJB , turn off their liberal feel good teachings, and get back to well established biblical teaching roles. The parents are confused, the kids are confused, their gospel is confused, as is everything else. It’s not coincidental. It’s a pattern

There’s only one truth, and it’s scripture, just as there’s only one savior, Jesus Christ.

Whoever you’re trusting in is your savior. If it’s Christ and what he finished 2000 years ago, then your reliance is in Him alone. If it’s in your ability to either be a good person, keep yourself saved, maintain your salvation, or add to your salvation, then you’re trusting in yourself, and so you’re your savior. Religion wants you to earn it through your finished works, but scripture tell us that it is only in Jesus’ finished work where we find salvation. It is all dependent on who your faith is in. Even if it is some of you, your trust is in yourself as the savior, not Jesus alone, because He is the only perfect one to live on this earth and when we believe in Him alone, and what He did on our behalf, that is credited unto us for righteousness, the righteousness of Jesus.. We are all untrustworthy, inconsistent, and incapable of the perfection God requires for entry into Heaven. That’s why it has to be in Jesus alone, not you.

2000 years ago, Jesus hung on a cross and paid for all of your sins. You and all of your sins being in the future, which ones do you have to pay for, and which ones did He miss?

We are saved by believing upon, trusting, and relying upon Jesus according to scripture. We are not saved by an affiliation, denomination, or work we do. It’s in Jesus alone

Should have done less reforming and more abandoning

re: What am I missing re. Landry

Posted by Mike da Tigah on 10/31/25 at 9:11 am to
Landry called out the athletic director publicly, as well as agents, Jimmy Sexton in particular, who represents both very high profile coach and athlete alike, and he put LSU in a very vulnerable position in negotiations with prospective coaches when he addressed compensation limitations that do not match up with the current reality of attracting the cream of the crop to come to LSU.

His behind closed doors comments made publicly are not just damaging to LSU, but they are highly unusual nationally and make LSU look like a real cluster. The man knows nothing of any of this, and yet inserted himself into all of it quite unwisely, as now he will be forever linked to how this turns out for LSU. As a politician who has to get re-elected in a state that loves LSU more than anything else, that was more than just foolish and inadvisable politically, but it could very well open the door to Democrats if this new coaching hire goes south as well.

quote:

I don’t understand why people are so upset about Woody being fired. The people that spend all of the money on these buyouts and NIL budgets wanted him gone. They wanted to fire MM. So they could hire Will Wade and Woody told them no. Then they wanted to fire BK and Woody told them no again. So they went to the one person that could get it done in Landry. You keep standing in the way and eventually you are going to be removed. It’s too bad but that was always going to be how that went.



I am far less upset over Woodward getting fired as I am with the absurdly embarrassing manner in which all of this has been done, but most especially from Governor Landry on down.

I’m just not sure the average LSU fan truly comprehends just how much we have shown our behinds to the rest of the country. What we like to refer to as a stereotypical mischaracterization of Louisiana has just been shown to have truth to it. Make no mistake about it, we look like the antithesis of professionals. We are being laughed at by the entire country, and especially those in the SEC who are lapping this up.
There’s the world how you’d like it to be, and then there’s the world how it operates.
No president
No AD
No Head Coach

And our illustrious governor aired our dirty laundry to the whole country to have fun with as he demonstrated how we treat athletic directors and coaches who don’t live up to expectations, as well as calling out agents who both represent and counsel and advise big name coaches and student athletes they represent and have personal relationships with.


Oh man, Louisiana has truly shown its proverbial behind over the past week, you can be sure of that.


If you had an actual media worth anything, this would be covered. I don’t expect much from them however.
