Re: Christ Church Pastor Change

Well....Bro. Hardwick announced today about his retirement. The vote will be on June 29th @ 5:00PM.

He said he will be pastor emeritus, but will remain the chairman of the church board!

I've never heard of a pastor emeritus being chairman of the board! I thought the senior pastor was always chairman of the board!

It appears Bro. Hardwick will remain solidly in control of things. Dan Scott will just be the puppet senior pastor!

Probably for the comfort level.

We would love to have you visit. You should come to the music conference in July and learn how to do "Bapticostal / Pentecostal Lite" music. LOL!!!!!

While the choir will not be wild like you like it I think you will be impressed with how clear they sound. Between the discipline of the choir and the sound guy /sound system the CC choir is the easiest choir to understand the words they are singing of any I have ever heard.

You believe obeying Acts2:38 is truth with speaking in tongues but it doesn't matter.
I am not trying to offend as much as I like to fuss but this has made my heart hurt.
What doesn't matter? I'm confused. Sorry.

Re: Christ Church Pastor Change

It is beyond my imagination that someone who has known the truth to have no qualms about going to a Trinity church. I would rather never set a foot in a church than attend a Trinity church. I don't expect y'all to feel like me but to be so carefree that truth means zip?

What I believe is very important to me, but going to a church that doesn't believe exactly the same doesn't bother me. I am secure in what I believe is truth. My kids know why we baptize in Jesus' name, but they know that the majority of the body of Christ doesn't see it that way. It doesn't hurt them to worship with others who are Spirit filled but don't understand Jesus' name baptism.

I think if you had been to more "Trinitarian" churches, you would see that they don't focus or teach "trinitarian" doctrine - I've never heard it one time. It's just not an issue with them like it is on our side. The only difference I've ever seen is the way they baptize. Sometimes I hear people say things that are blatantly "three-personality", but it's rare, and I just ignore it. Eat the fish and spit out the bones.

Our church kids have gone to an AG camp for years and never one time been taught trinitarian doctrine. They don't bring it up, and they don't baptize at the camp, so I see nothing wrong with it. We've had probably 30 kids filled with the Holy Ghost there in the past few years. The worship is awesome and the altar services are amazing. It feels just like UPC camp services.

Re: Christ Church Pastor Change

Bro. Epley

I will say that a friend of mine (he is an AG pastor) is presently reading a book about Jesus name baptism. He is truly open to it. I don't think that would happen if I treated him like the plague.

No real problem exists over the use of "The Name" in everthing else done in the Church. Why then should there exist great controversy over the use of the "The Name of the Godhead" in water baptism?
