Revised: The Twelve Pillars of Contrast: God’s Prescribed Home Fellowships Versus the Institutional Church
As I catch up on reader homework, church drama is truly overwhelming. I find the information sent to me astounding. I was tempted to write five posts and I do not have time to do so—not even close.…

You wrote, “Justification is complete when the believer passes from death to life via the new birth.” A triple amen and a violent, clumsy somersault to that! So much so that the offering bags (I mean, the you-had-better-pay-or-else-we’ll-check-your-bank-statement forced “love offerings” to help spread no gospel) go flying down the aisles.
May I add one? (It most probably complements your No. 7). Going to church/being a (cult) member/having signed a holy church covenant, as inspired by Calvin, peace be upon him, does not save anyone. it never has, and can never. My itchy left foot.
I love this list, Paul.
