Christian Leaders Demand Social Justice on Capitol Hill

I belong to one of those denominations, and my beliefs are quite different from those of Obama and Wright.

Then you should leave whatever apostate denomination you belong to and join with an evangelical independent or denominational church that still believes the bible in it's entirety and preaches the same biblical Sola Vida gospel plan of salvation by grace through faith in Christ alone that the Apostles received by divine inspiration and preached over 19 centuries ago.

I don't believe that God will allow those apostate denominations which in effect deny the divinity of His Son and preach a social gospel of redemption through good works and political activism to continue teaching and preaching their unbiblical works gospel indefinitely. If you are a true believer in Jesus Christ and the biblical doctrines of His first century Church you should get out of your apostate denominational church and discover what it feels like to know that you are in fellowship with your brothers and sisters of like faith in Christ. I recommend a good independent Baptist church like the one I belong to, but there are many other non-denominational independent churches just as good that don't bear the stigma that the media has managed to attach to the name "Baptist".

The difference is that you choose to stay in your church and your church chooses to associate with the UCC. The NCC is so evil that I want everyone to understand what they are doing.

God's blessings on your efforts to wrest your church away from the NCC.

This issue is really being brought to the forefront with all this Obama talk. How can we expect Obama to walk away from his "church" when we even have Freepers who won't walk away from their apostate churches?

I have a conservative relative that attends a UCC, even though they are going to leave. I wonder if they were in church yesterday?

Most Christian Churches I know already do this themselves and have been for a long, long time. These guys just talk about it.

Not all of them, some do a lot of good works for the needy around the world. But that isn't my problem with the WCC denominations, their denial of Jesus' divinity and the divine inspiration of bible scripture puts them in the same class with infidels and the future worshipper of AntiChrist as far as I'm concerned.

All the good works they could do in a billion years with quintillions of dollars wouldn't cover their sin and make them righteous enough to stand innocent before God's bar of justice, only the atoning blood of the Lord Jesus Christ can do that miraculous work, and it will for anyone who believes in his or her heart in the divinity of Jesus Christ the Son and that God the Father resurrected Him from the dead as per Romans 10: 8-9.

I think we’re making the same point but coming at it from different directions. A true Christian uses himself to raise and glorify Jesus and God. A phony Christian tries to use Jesus and God to raise and glorify themselves. Petty easy to tell which these guys are.

I didn't agree with what Bill Clinton said and did during his presidency. But I did not leave the USA.

An entirely different matter. The USA isn't Jesus Christ's blood bought Church, and we aren't commanded to leave our nation if it's beliefs and acts are contrary to sound bible doctrine. The scripture below is a guide as to what we should do in the matter of membership in an apostate church, but it isn't in any way applicable to our citizenship in the USA.

2Cr:6:14Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?

2Cr 6:15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?

2Cr 6:16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

2Cr 6:17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you

Agreed on all points brother.

Our church is going to have some gatherings to talk about the upcoming elections. I can’t wait to have discussions with these ‘60s libs.

Christians have a biblical responsibility to help the poor and ease suffering around the world, according to NCCUSA.

And they are right. . .we should. What we should NOT do is delegate that responsibility to government.

I think you are saying that my salvation depends upon the church I belong to. Otherwise, why in the world would yuo suggest that I should leave my current church (where the Gospel of salvation by grace through faith in Jesus is both taught and preached) and join another church?

Perhaps you know of the parable of the wheat and the tares? I believe that in some denominations (including my own), there are wheats alongside the tares.

And I also believe that it is God who saves -- an act of grace. God looks at the heart of each believer. I do not believe that God will condemn an inidivual simply because he or she is a member of a church that belong is in a denomination that is a member of the NCC.
