Baptists

It was because the pastor and the other leaders of the church set a bad example to the general members of the church.

They became greedy of gain and was promised with exhorbitant returns on their money. This is how a swindler penetrates a church.

First it starts with the leaders of that church and when the swindler has won them over then it spreads by word of mouth to other members. Then one by one each person gets excited and wants to get in.

The leaders of the church should be held accountable for even "buying" into it. I bet none of them even took responsibility for what happened.

Baptists accept that there are three Jewish groups represented in the apostles. They are the Pharisees, Sadducees and the Zealots. The Essenes were not represented because they were monks and lived separate to the average person.

Judas Iscariot was believed to be a Zealot and was the reason that he insisted that Jesus show his hand and throw out the Romans.

By the way, John the Baptist is believed to be raised by the Essene because his parents were so old and died before he was of age.

As a religion - NO, no religions are "Bad" but sometimes they are hijacked by people and warped or twisted to make them look bad.

Southern Baptists are Christians.

Many.Ill explain the history of the church briefly. There was one church called "The Catholic Orthodox Church".It consisted of the Roman church ( found by st.peter),the Greek church (founded by st.andrew),The Coptic church (founded by st.mark),The church of Antioch (not sure founded by who) and The church of Jeruslem (not sure founded by who). It split into Catholic and Orthodox.Catholic "west" and Orthodox "east'.However the Coptic church belongs to the Eastern "Oriental' Orthodox church while the Greek church belongs to the Eastern Orthodox church,they are the same but have a different view on the divinty of christ.The Coptic church believes christ has two natures but united while the Greek church beleives christ has two natures but seperate. After that The western church - the Catholic church had many splits these churches are called Protestant churches which consists of anglicans,baptists and so on. The differences are many, too long to list

The Baptist Church is a denomination within the Christian faith. It has many branches being involved in different parts of the country. They are independent in their indivdual operation, as a church but serve the same function as in a place to worship God, to grow in faith, and to fellowship with other believers, as well as a place to serve Him in church proper, or within the mission field itself and that can be anywhere within the community at large or overseas . It is based in the Bible and chooses to share the Gospel message to any who will listen to it . They should overall seek to teach any who attend the Truth of the Lord Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord, and all of the Bible . The churches themselves have their own individual 'mottos, creeds as such depending on it's particular origin in the area it started with,i.e. in a town, city, or country region. They have their own methods of worship, instruction and outreaches, some have a lot of outreaches, others only a few but all have them depending on their ability as a church to contribute to the community they are involved with. I have been involved with the Baptist church for many of my married years, I came to the church after I got married, and have learned that there are different kinds of Baptist churches, both small and large, and each has a life in the faith of service to the LORD that is different and unique to each. I hope that is helpful to you.

If the pastor carries a degreed title such as Dr., that title should be included and used first. Many pastors are also called Reverend. If you are unsure of the pastor's credentials or preferences, most pastors are happy being introduced as Brother or Sister. It is also helpful to follow their name with a short explanation of, 'Pastor of the Such and Such Church.'

They don't care about hair cutting.

Neither a man nor a woman can be a parent of a Baptist church. Only an existing Baptist church can be the "mother" of a new Baptist church.

The girl who danced and pleased Herod. And Herod told her he would give her anything she desired, as she asked her mother who asked for the head of John the baptist on a silver plate. The reason was as John had told Herod it was not correct to marry your brothers wife.

Instead of having los of statues like in the church they have tapestries and absoluteley no statues at all in the synagogue.

Another point that leads away from decoration is that they don't say God in the synagogue. They say G-d or Adoni as the name is too sacred.

They also have the difference in readings such as the Bible in the church and the Torah in the synagogue.

Hope this helped :D

Yes, he has been after 44 years of marriage.

To make them sing?

We do kneel at the altar to pray. Anyone can kneel anywhere they want to in our church. It shows humblesness. If you don't kneel here on earth, you will kneel and confess on judgment day.

Christian's disagree on this issue. Many believe that if man is divorced for any reason he cannot remarry and still pastor a church. Others believe that he can only pastor if he is re-married because of the death of his first wife. Still others would say that he can be re-married as long as the first divorce was either initiated by the other party, or if it was initiated by the pastor for biblical reason (ie marital unfaithfulness). The bible teaches that the pastor should be the "husband of one wife." How this works out in our everyday reality is not 100% clear, though the idea behind the original text is that he is a "one woman man." I don't think this automatically disqualifies a man who has re-married if he has proven that what had happened in the past, is truly in the past, and there is evidence of repentance and change in His life. Though many would probably disagree with me on that, I believe the overarching narrative of Scripture is one of grace and restoration, so why would we not extend that same grace to our pastors.

Baptism means to be surrounded. It was used to mean to be dipped in water or surrounded by love.

Baptists got their name because they baptised members after they reached an age of accountability. From this they were called anabaptists meaning re-baptists.

As far as I know none do. Open Commiunion is one of the core beliefs of Baptist churches. Since every Baptist Church is free to operate the way it see's fit however, there are probably at least one or two exceptions to this rule.

Every Baptist church has a covenant based on the constitution and teachings of that particular church. There is no one Baptist church covenant but they are all going to have the Baptist teachings from the Bible that include: Baptism of saved, born again beleivers, the Lord's Supper, church planting, living a Christian life, witnessing, requirements for Sunday School teachers and church leaders as well as preaching of the gospel message.

She said that she wasn't feeling well.

What you do mean by 'Not act right'? If they are doing something that you don't agree with then maybe it might be a good idea to confront them about it. It depends what it is. Otherwise you could always ask God for some assistance. First,you need to be sure that you can justify your own position from a Biblical point of view.Also,you have to be able to demonstrate in the same way that they are wrong.Approaching them privately would be the next step,and then with other witnesses,after the pattern of Matthew 18:15-20.But usually,each church has it's own procedures in place to deal with these situations.A spirit of humility in all such dealings give the best outcomes.Work to truly RESOLVE the situation,rather than to show someone up or score points.
