[We left a “church” (mainstream denomination) who's “minister” was preaching from Scott Peck's books instead of the Bible. Joined a real church where we bring our Bibles and read along with the Pastor's sermon to make sure he's on track as people should.]

So did we.There is a world of difference between the biblical doctrines that should be the of the body Christ and the self praising lies held by liberal social gospel denominations who have departed from the truth of God's word into the foolishness of false doctrines that are not the word of God.
Wisdom is justified of her children. God opened our minds to understand the scriptures but we who believe God's word are in the minority in today's latter days, which God warned of. Another warning of the 11 above. And,GAL 1:1 Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead;) GAL 1:2 And all the brethren which are with me, unto the churches of Galatia: GAL 1:3 Grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ, GAL 1:4 Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father: GAL 1:5 To whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen. GAL 1:6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: GAL 1:7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. GAL 1:8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. GAL 1:9 As we said before, so say I now again, if any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed. GAL 1:10 For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ. GAL 1:11 But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man. GAL 1:12 For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.

Thank you Kindred for your comments and those excellent Scripture references. What is edifying is that you can read and reread Scripture a dozen times and STILL see something relevant that you missed, which goes back to it being revealed to a receptive mind.

Seems I have somewhat given Galatians a cursory glance, I’ll spend more time there, thank you.

We were attending a church in Longwood Florida that had a pastor that openly supported obama and was his ‘voice’ on Fox and Friends after Saddleback.

we were sickened. this guy is pathetic; sending a message to all those young people that attend his church that obama is acceptable as a president because Joel Hunter supports him.
