Excellent.

I’ve been to too many churches which have swallowed and/or practiced those lies.

Past tense. We will not attend a church which compromises on God’s Truth.

Also been to a church where the 50 year old pastor was dressing in skinny jeans and acting all hip and young in order to be relevant. While his messages were solid, between the way he dressed and the smoke machine and lights for *worship* the whole *experience* as they called church, was a real turn off.

Thanks for posting

Skinny jeans? Yuck! I hate to see those no matter who wears them!

And I agree, I won't attend a church that compromises. Problem is, most of them do, and with me having Long Covid it makes getting out very difficult.

I agree.

And to your point, for the most part those are the churches that lose membership. As are the churches that are descriptive of this main post. I'm sure there are exceptions where there are CINO (Christian In Name Only) churches growing, but not from where I see it. Where I see it there are churches growing because the real Christians are looking for places that encourage faith in Christ not the world, and living it like we mean it not living like the world.

I’m laughing because my 73 year old husband wears skinny jeans (well, not the ones that hug the legs like leggings) and they look great on him. He’s an Indian (feather, not dot) with a flat Indian butt, and most jeans are too big in the butt for him.
