We commanded not to fellowship the unfruitful works of darkness which would be false churches.
Outside of those two I see no problems. He had some odd treachings himself through the years just saying.

It's sad that Jesus did not get the memo. In fact, he actually marked some of those folk as his own by giving them the Holy Ghost!!

Now if they are teaching "prosperity" or "purpose driven life" garbage, I'd certainly discourage my members from visiting.

Just curious as to why you would call these two topics garbage? And, I simply ask for understanding, because I may not understand the nomenclature.
