310: Ellen G. White found guilty of plagiarism (copying)
twenty Years. Being aided in the study of the Scriptures, and her work as a religious teacher, by the special enlightenment of the Spirit of God, she is peculiarly qualified to present the facts of the Life and Ministry of Christ, in connection with the divine plan of human redemption, and to practically apply the lessons of Jesus to the simple duties of life [italics added]. One of the most pleasing features of this book is the plain and simple language with which the author clothes thoughts that glow with truth and beauty. 1 A lot of trouble and embarrassment would have been avoided in years to come if a few others than the "Spirit of God" had gotten some credit. Although the Scriptures do make it plain that every good and perfect gift comes from God, some of Ellen's gifts of writing were found to have come through quite a few human sources. In the late 1970s Robert W. Olson, for the White Estate (which is always pushed to keep its readers and the church members up to date on ... ...

Often local churches do not own their church properties, but their properties are held by an outside organization. This can easily become another issue of control.

As was true in the first century, so also there is no inter-congregational organization, but rather independent congregations in different locations with Christ as Lord and Master. Our local churches are organized autonomously. Whereas denominations have a human creed or catechism to enforce unity, our unifying force is that each congregation uses the Bible alone without creeds. Because the church of the first century had no denominational name, neither do we. However, because the New Testament described the assemblies of Christians as "the church" Ephesians 1:22; "the churches of Christ" Romans 16:16; "the church of God" Acts 20:28 and many other descriptions, the "name on the sign" will always be one found in ... ...

Our worship to God is very important. If we expect to please God, so we can go to heaven when this life is over, we "must worship Him in spirit and in truth."

330: Welcome to the Hamilton church of Christ, in Ontario Canada
... We strictly follow the pattern of church government as found in the Bible and offer personal freedom to each brother and sister in Christ. There is no man or group of men, who legislate for the church. We have no one to answer to but Christ. He is the head of the church which leaves no room for any human head. As was true in the first century, so also there is no inter-congregational organization, but rather independent congregations in different locations with Christ as Lord and Master. Whereas denominations have a human creed or catechism to enforce unity, our unifying force is that each congregation uses the Bible alone without creeds. Because the church of the first century had no denominational name, neither do we. However, because the New Testament described the assemblies of Christians as "the church" Ephesians 1:22; "the churches of Christ" Romans 16:16; "the church of God" Acts 20:28 and many other descriptions, the "name on the sign" will always be one found in the Bible. ... ...

348: The Founding of Aelia Capitolina and the Chronology of the Jewish ...
... The question becomes the more pertinent when we find that the impression was shared by the church fathers. A goodly number believed that Hadrian had given permission to the Jews to restore the temple, while others assign an early date for the founding of Aelia Capitolina. Thus the Chronacon PawAale says that the founding of the city and the Jewish rebellion occurred in 119. But the most remarkable passage occurs in chapter my of the De menauris ei pondenbus of Epiphanius, of Eleutheropolis in Palestine, bishop at Cyrenaica in 367. Epiphanius tells us that ... Besides and preceding this passage, we have in Jerome under the same dating: "Adrianus Alexandriam a Judseis subversam restauravit." It is true that Hadrian's presence in Egypt was not absolutely required for the punishment of the rebellious Jews or the rebuilding of Alexandria. But the personal forms of the verbs (it is not said that. Hadrian "ordered the punishment" or "had Alexandria rebuilt ") seem to imply the emperor's ... ...

349: Haruskah Anda Percaya Kepada Watchtower???
... The council also dealt with a number of lesser schisms and heresies, laying down the conditions on which their adherents might be readmitted to the church; endeavoured to settle the date of Easter; and regulated various questions of ecclesiastical precedence and organization. Constantine banished Arius and his partisans, confiscated the Arian churches and banned the cult of recusant schismatics and heretics. Constantine regarded the decisions of Nicaea as divinely inspired. As long as he lived no one dared openly to challenge the creed of Nicaea, but the expected concord did not follow.

Their chief victim was Athanasius, who became bishop of Alexandria in 328 (see ATHANASIUS, SAINT). At first Constantine supported him, acquitting him of several charges, but he eventually lost patience. The ... ...

... Tammy lowered her head, stopped crying, went silent for about 2 minutes of silence, then said: "I am a lesbian and have been having sex with an older woman at work for about 2 years, and a younger woman named Candy, I recently met in my exercise class at the gym." With this confession, one of the sisters who had initially protested James' methods, fainted on the floor, spraining her wrist. The shock that Tammy was a practicing lesbian was a little more than this church lady could handle. Tammy confessed her sin to the church, asking for forgiveness and was "cured" from her debilitating depression. About a year later, Tammy started dating a younger Christian in another congregation. He asked her to marry her and she accepted. He graduated from a theological school has now been preaching the gospel for over twenty five years with his faithful wife Tammy at his side. They have 5 children. No further depression experienced. Discussion: This is also a typical example of avoidance, denial ... ...
