I am currently attend a Southern Baptist Church, so I can answer questions about them

Don't they all teach the same thing?

no, they do not ......

one i know of, considered going to the "Movies" as a sin, even if it was to see, "Time to Run", or " The Hiding Place" or "Thief in the Night"..... yet, they would allow you to watch the video in their basement, with lights off, and no arranged seating, and call it a "FILM" that was ok......

it was "ok" if you had sex, and a condomn was used for B.C. but if a pill was used, that was a sin...... (this also was a "Baptist" church.....

another "Baptist" church has the ushers checking hem lines to ensure the skirts and dresses are long enough.... another one labled as Baptist, protest at military funerals, even though the person that is being laid to rest has been retired for a long long time, and a good many of them have never even shot a weapon other then in training or for hunting.....

just because some one has the tag of "BAPTIST" does not mean they teach the Bible..... the first time a minister says, you do not need to follow, or look it up or try to figure it out for yourself, hopefully you will be seeing RED FLAGS.......

if something sounds weird.......VERIFY IT.......

that is not just with Baptist churchs, but with any church fellowship/denomination......

blessings.....

would you want the truth? or or just to feel good?

there are too many people out there calling themselves Christians and they are actually workers for satan and are holding titles saying they are not...... very deceptive......

just because a person goes into a church building does not make a person a Christian, no more then being in a garage makes a person a fiat or a ford or chevy.......

this is why we are told to STUDY TO SHOW THYSELF APPROVED......

dont take my word for it, read it for yourself.... verify what is said every time a preacher says something......

But realistically there are only two or three main Baptist branches in the US. Just like every one of our Christian groups though there are thousands of tiny splinter groups that believe every sort of crazy thing.

I would start with the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) and look at what they believe they are BY FAR the largest Baptist group, they have consistent theology, spelled out beliefs, etc, and millions of members. In fact I think they are the second largest denomination in the United States in total for all Christians.

Hey RunningGator:

Thansk for your response. Unfortunately, i cannot answer you with precision. since your response already impressed me a lot.

In fact,I thought of the Baptist faith to be the same all over the world.

But, maybe I will be more interestd in the one related to the Missionaries.

For example, I heard from here in the Congo that acoording to the Baptist, churches memebres of a church are very few. I heard of about one hundred persons for one church community.

Shalom !!!

I am confident you are referring to the Southern Baptists. They have 5700 missionaries around the world (an additional 1900 in the US) it is the focus of the Southern Baptist Convention to reach the lost with the gospel. You may be familiar with Charles Stanly and his ministry. They are broadcast inn over 120 languages now.

If you do a search on them, you will find what you are looking for.

Blessings on your efforts.

Heres a message about missionary work by southern baptist Paul Washer. I personally believe he is one of the greatest teachers of today. I have grown soooo much through his messages. http://www.heartcrymissionary.com/resource...ons/paul_washer Download first message at the top

This would be probably the best starting resource to teach you a bit about the seriousness of missions and what God wants done. Mainly, if you want to do missions you better be a man of God and saturated in God's Word everyday. There are many missionary groups that are actually doing more bad than good. It would be great if the Lord is truly calling you but if He's not then you will be doing a mission through the flesh and God does not honor that. I'm not trying to put you done but just show how serious the work of God is. Its the most important thing there is. Make sure for one, that you are bearing much fruit within your own church. Do everything you can as far as evangelism goes right where you are first. One of the greatest mission fields right now is the "church". So many people within the church claim to be saved although in reality have never known God. A true faith is demonstrated through a Holy life and as we can see a lot of the churches in America right now are very immoral and in turn unsaved.

I want to encourage you brother because God could have a great calling for you just make sure He is truly calling you. My main suggestion is PRAY! Prayer is key! May God bless you in whatever it is you do. Your brother in Christ, Matthew

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
