Go Outside The CampPosted : 19 Mar, 2022 05:48 AMActs tells us that thousands of Jews had believed and were zealous for the law(21:20.) That gives us some perspective when we approach the letter of Hebrews. The writer is calling them away from physical things to spiritual things. Christ is better than angels. He is better than Moses. He is better than Levi and Aaron. His sacrifice is better than all the sacrifices offered in the temple. Christ suffered death outside the gate, outside the city, outside the temple. We are to join him there, outside, bearing his shame and reproach. We have no city or state here. We have no physical temple or physical sacrifice. We have no sacred place on earth. Just as the Jews who received this letter were to do, we are to leave the physical things behind. We are seeking the heavenly things , which are better (Hebrews 11:16, 13:12-14). |

Go Outside The CampPosted : 22 Mar, 2022 11:28 PMSo there you have the facts readers, that tinydavid has no evidence here in this thread - ' about Ted's 'meetings' in home Churches and he says - 'based on his false understanding of the old covenant, doesn’t even do that right' but just flaps his gums in accusations as usual! |

Go Outside The CampPosted : 23 Mar, 2022 10:30 PMHello OhioGrace, thanks for clarification of what you actually was meaning. It was distracting to me that you mentioned in your response to Quiz when he was talking about modern so called 'pastors' that control their sheeple and with false doctrine of course, that you seemed to substitute the 'function as a priest for us' in OT times to that of today's modern so called 'pastors' that Quiz was linking into your topic of 'Going Outside The Camp' as if to say they (the 'camps' of 'churches today) don't allow the laity to speak up in ALL MAJOR DENOMINATIONAL 'churches' today and Quiz is soooooooo right on point with what Paul says in 1 Corinthians 14:26-30 in the participation of all members to speak up and NOT just a controlling 'pastor' as Quiz is attempting to point out. |

Go Outside The CampPosted : 24 Mar, 2022 08:14 AMUnfortunately, even those who teach and preach truth still follow the stage performance mentality. There is one person up on stage performing while the rest of the people are the non functioning audience. One of my friends had a brother-in-law who was of that mentality. He told my friend, "i can't get the people to do anything." My friend was very clear. He said, with the way you preach and what you preach, why should you expect anything different. Churches talk about the priesthood of the believer. But they act like it's the priesthood of the pastor. The body of Christ isn't functioning the way it should. And that is why the "church" isn't effective. We have compromised so much. We use worldly methods in the church. We have been on the downhill slide for the last 1700 or so years. When christians allowed themselves to be assimilated into a constantinian view of the church, that was a compromise. And so it goes. |
