These "New" churches "springing" up..........

Ok...I'll be the first to admit that no church is perfect.....but, c'mon....let's get serious....some of these "churches" are that are coming onto the scene and drawing HUGE crowds are nothing more than social gatherings....

I am especially upset with the "titles" of sermons (definitely not something i would want my children to hear) and the songs/performances before the "peptalk"....again, not something i would want my children to hear....and then, even more recently-the things that this "ordained ministers" are doing during their "peptalks".....

No, I can't "judge" motives or hearts.....but i can honestly say & ask......would God-our Lord and Savior be happy with us coming together & singing "Highway to hell" or "...I don't even know his last name...." before getting up and drinking a beer while "speaking" on supposedly the holiness of our Father? Are you serious?

Maybe this really hits home with me, b/c there was a couple that was attending "this certain church" that was present while the "pastor" drank a beer as he preached that drinking is Ok & that as Christians, we have the right to drink alcohol...the next weekend, the husband/father had a few glasses of wine & was driving his family home-when he hit another car, killed his family, himself & injured others....

The way that we live, the things that we preach/teach.....it all matters...b/c in the end......it's God that we will have to answer to & ourselves only that we will have to answer for....
