At no point heaven I supported communism in any of my comments. Don't misrepresent me.
There's a difference between rejecting communism and the messages op was claiming are necessary to be present for a church to be biblical.. that's just not the case.
There's a vast difference between not talking about communism in your sermons and actually supporting it. Those are not the same position. That's my point.
I never took that position at all. Where did I say I did?
You are either Misunderstanding what I said or misrepresenting what I said. Because that is not my position at all and I never said that.
I Have no problem with the church condemning sin. I have a problem with someone saying that a church that doesn't preach on the specific topics that OP mentioned is not Biblical / good.
Just one small example would be a drug rehab Church that preaches about sin and repentance and idolatry and never covers any of the subjects that OP claimed were necessary for a church to talk about.
By what standard? You are making up arbitrary standards that are not in scripture.
I agree it's an important topic but it's not a Biblical standard. You didn't address one prime example I presented. Teen challange specifically would be a fantastic example. A mens christian in-patient 12 month rehab with a church where the focus is on building a foundation with Christ and addressing sin in their own lives, namely addiction wish is ultimately idolatry. As a volunteer there I've never heard the subject of communism preached on. God has other priorities there.
Not every church needs to have the same focus or ministries you have.
Who are you oh man to question God? Because that's what you're doing.
