“Follow the pattern of the sound words that you have heard from me, in the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus. By the Holy Spirit who dwells within us, guard the good deposit entrusted to you” (2 Tim 1:13–14)

Sound Words=Sound Doctrine

Sound doctrine is good, written doctrine is better.

(Ok, back to being serious.)

We need right now a return to a gentle dogmatism that smiles while it stands stubborn and firm on the Word of God that liveth and abideth forever.

“But if I tarry long, that you may know how you ought to behave yourself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and foundation of the truth.” 1Tim 3:15

Yes, but who wants to have their children molested by the clergy?.

Who wants their children bullied and exploited by sponsored illegal aliens?

US Christianity has a lot of house cleaning to do before claiming any ground of exclusive righteousness.

Most Christian institutions are simply family unfriendly and unsafe for the young and for the aged. There are exceptions, but they are minority in the mix of things.

Buyer Beware!

IT WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE to overemphasize the importance of sound doctrine in the life of a Christian.

Paul says otherwise in 1 Cor 13:2.

John says otherwise in 1 Jn 2:9

Do you want me to go on?

This thread appears to be devolving into the usual battle of the doctrines and churches - who/what is superior.

The truth is in the Golden Rule. That’s the stone the builders [of human establishments] reject, but it’s the gate to the kingdom of God.

Is this thread going to devolve into yet another 'the KJV is the ONLY accurate translation' or an unending 'Catholicism is the ONLY way to make it to Heaven' one?
