Whichever side you're on, and whatever planet you came from, you "things" need to head on back to myspace or whatever it is you're usually doing with the rest of your jr. high peeps. You are accomplishing nothing here but making yourself (yourselves?) look like total idiots.

allofgrace said...

well there's one thing about it...nobody put a gun to your head and made you come here did they?...and try putting up some Bible verses instead of gibberish...that way you'll get your witnessing in.

Question: Do you all think you are under elder rule without the formal announcement?

concernedSBCer said...

My disclaimer: This comment IN NO WAY is referring to our sweet little piglet!

When I was "growing through" my divorce, I was trying desperately to "take the high road." A friend shared the following quote with me:
"If you get into the pigpen with the pigs, you're bound to get covered in slop."

There might be things in that pigpen........

"Question: Do you all think you are under elder rule without the formal announcement?"

I have thought this all along and have said so. Yes! What do you think. I also think there is a huge possibility there are bylaws the members aren't aware of. Just my opinion.

Yea NASS...can you not block the ISP of these folks? Ace, the things, etc...

David Hall said...

Hey, I'm going to go shoot pool and flirt--nice visiting with y'all. Check in later.

What was the structure at Gardendale? Leaders usually stick with what they 'know'.

I'm a computer dummy and I'm paranoid.

With that, I'm going to go have a Spam sandwich. :/

Lin said...

I am learning tons tonight! Thanks, my tax dollars at work. ;o)

allofgrace said...

In churches that actually practice elder plurality..the elders are nominated and voted on by the congregation.

David Hall said...

No...thank goodness. Oi, that'll git me in trouble

gbc lurker said...

I have read this blog from almost the beginning because of the "purpose-driven" stuff. Anyway, I have always thought there has to be more to BBC's bylaws than that one old 1920's document. Has someone checked to see what documents were used when the church purchased properties, or became tax exempt? I think a lending, or state, institute would be interested in who has authority to sign loans and how an organization is run.

Lin said...

"In churches that actually practice elder plurality..the elders are nominated and voted on by the congregation."

Amen. It usually starts off like that but then evolves into being 'recommended' by another elder and the elder board votes.

This was the problem at my last church. Can you see the challenges with this in a mega? Just like regular elections, most don't care. It does not affect them directly, or so they think.

I am just aware of a big push out there to go elder rule. And, add to that, most elders do not minister they administrate...very lightly in a mega. They only know what 'staff' tell them.

allofgrace said...

the only by laws anyone has been able to get hold of are on one page.

allofgrace said...

lin,
I'm speaking mostly of Presby churches and reformed baptist churches.

imaresistor said...

Lin said...

It is listed on the Willow Creek Association as a member. :) Folks need to wake up! Bill Hybels...Rick Warren...etc, etc, etc,...

Junkster said...

About some church members not wanting their names and addresses to be given to another member of the church ... while I can understand some concerns, are we keeping in mind what the church (any church, any size) actually is, and what our relationship with each other is supposed to be?

Romans 12:5
so in Christ we who are many form one body, and each member belongs to all the others

1 Corinthians 12:27
Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it.

Romans 12:10
Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honor one another above yourselves

Romans 12:16
Live in harmony with one another.

Romans 14:19
Let us therefore make every effort to do what leads to peace and to mutual edification

Romans 15:7
Accept one another

Romans 16:16
Greet one another

Galatians 5:13
serve one another

Ephesians 4:3
Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.

Ephesians 4:32
Be kind and compassionate to one another

Ephesians 5:19
Speak to one another

Ephesians 5:21
Submit to one another

Colossians 3:13
Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another.

Colossians 3:16
admonish one another

1 Thessalonians 5:11
encourage one another

1 Peter 1:22
love one another deeply, from the heart

1 Peter 3:8
live in harmony with one another

1 Peter 4:9
Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling.


I know that's a lot of verses, but they are short, and I hope at least someone will take time to read each of them. My point is this ... Jesus calls His disciples to be radically, drastically, completely, absolutely, passionately devoted to one another, just as He calls us to be devoted to Himself. As He said, all of God's commands basically boil down to love God & love people. But hmmmmmm .... surely He couldn't have meant that I should take that seriously enough to be willing to accept some mail from another member of the very same body and bride of Christ that I belong to ... could He? Let's face it ... we belong to each other! Even if the law didn't say that the church as a not-for-profit corporation is required to provide certain information to its members, and even if God had not told us to obey the laws of our government, by what right could we, as brothers and sisters, as family members, say to each other, "Don't bother me with your junk mail?" Even if someone got a hold of a membership list and sent me mail I wasn't interested in, well ... I get junk mail every day ... and I have a paper shredder and a trash can, so problem solved.

I'm junk99mail, and these are my Perceptions.

I'm sorry I didn't get to meet you on sunday night..I saw you sitting a few rows in front of me, but never made it over to you :(

We'll meet some other time :)

gbc lurker said...

I know on the Saddle Back Bylaws- I have a PDF copy if anyone is interested- Rick Warren picks his elders. In the GBC proposed constitution that was voted down, the congregation nominated and voted on the elders. However, the senior pastor and executive pastor were always elders, the elders could nominate too, and the elders screened and decided what candidates were brought before the congregation for a vote. So they really had all the control in the selection.

imaresistor said...

gbc lurker said,
"I think a lending, or state, institute would be interested in who has authority to sign loans and how an organization is run."

I do not claim to be in the know of these kinds of things other than what any knowledgeable 'run of the mill' person might be privy to. However, I do think that the board of directors would be in 'power' on this issue and in going to the tax exempt status that most churches, including Bellevue, I do believe that the board of directors do have to sign documents in making this change. Right? Anyway...this should be on record. Somebody needs to check this out. I cannot believe all these changes have taken place under a set by bylaws done in 1929 was it? But...what do I know. Maybe it is? Has anybody checked into this?

bbc refugee said-

However, this is not a fair comparison to SG. AR did not drive flashy or expensive cars. AR kept his cars for a long time. I could be wrong, but it was my understanding that he had refused salary increases in his early years. It was also my understanding that he never asked for his salary before he accepted God's leading at BBC. I would not think it would have been wrong to know, just not a fair comparison for your point.


REPLY- What?? Dr. Gaines does not drive flashy cars either. Far from it. Dr. Rogers got a car supplied for him by the church, no different. Dr. Gaines keeps his cars a long time as well.
How ridiculous!!



Also, Dr. Gaines salary was never discussed until AFTER he followed God's call to Bellevue.


These are the men (MD and those who put him in his position)who started working on BBC's "Culture Change" before Dr Roger's ever resigned. They did this behind his back.

I understand that there are some that are excited these changes have taken place, but to others of us, it is a shock. We trusted the men that served Dr Rogers would continue to be the same men on integrity to serve past Dr Rogers. What happened? Why was our trust misused?


REPLY- Dr. Rogers and others KNEW there were changes that needed to be made, but that those should be done by the new Pastor. I am not sure where you get your info, but you could not be more wrong.

Dr. Gaines seems to be inconvenienced with pastoring, what with all the other pursuits he is involved in.


REPLY- WOW. #1 That is so NOT true! #2 He does not do half of what Dr. Rogers did at dertain times in his ministry. What a joke!

Mega pastors don't really do MORE work than the pastorsof smaller churches. They have a larger staff to delegate to.

imaresistor said...

I found this to be very amusing if you are interested in understanding what Warren is all about. If they don't agree with your philosophy, just move 'em on out. Never mind about the 'lost sheep'...he has a new way of doing things. And this is merely a drop in the bucket of Warren's philosophy. This is not the way a pastor should treat God's children. Just an example. :(

I am willing to be wrong. I do believe Dr Rogers would have liked to see some changes. I do not believe he would have remained silent to this point (just my humble opinion). You seem to be very knowledgable. What changes did Dr Rogers KNOW needed to be made?

This infomation would really help me.

In pursuit of.....

John 1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

John 1:17 For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.

John 3:21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.

John 4:24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

John 8:32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

Romans 1:17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness

1st Corinthians 13:6 Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth

2nd Corinthians 13:8 For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth.

Galatians 4:16 Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?

Ephesians 4:25 Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another.

1st Thessalonians 2:13 ¶ For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe.

2nd Thessalonians 2:13 ¶ But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth

2nd Timothy 6:5 Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself.

James 1:18 Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.19 ¶ Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:20 For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.

2nd Peter 2:2 And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.

1st John 2:21 I have not written unto you because ye know not the truth, but because ye know it, and that no lie is of the truth.

1st John 4:6 We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.

3rd John 1:4 I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth.

teach us O LORD!

Luke 11:1 ¶ And it came to pass, that, as he was praying in a certain place, when he ceased, one of his disciples said unto him, Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples.

Luke 12:11 And when they bring you unto the synagogues, and unto magistrates, and powers, take ye no thought how or what thing ye shall answer, or what ye shall say:
12 For the Holy Ghost shall teach you in the same hour what ye ought to say.

John 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

Acts 1:1 ¶ The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach,
2 Until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen:
3 To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God:

1st Corinthians 2:9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.
10 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.
12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.
13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

but you could not be more wrong.

NASS

If Ace wants to go all night I volunteer to stay up with him. I just opened up a pack of Ho Ho's. One of them was smashed with the creamy filling all squirted out so I am not in a very good mood.

And yes, that IS SO PATHETIC AND WRONG!!!!

"Ace,
You might be better concerened about how your own actions stack up against the law instead of what others are doing. "


I am curious to know what you are implying. That seems like a pretty big thing to put out there with out something to back it up...

Charlie Fox said...

Before ya'll get to carried away, the "JOURNEY of PAUL" trip with Gaines, Shaw and Parker et al, that NASS posted, was in 2005.

dude...pass the ho ho's

WTL said...

Proverbs 12:15 ¶ The way of a fool is right in his own eyes: but he that hearkeneth unto counsel is wise.

Astounded said...

Do you want the squashed one without the creamy filling?

Proverbs 13:7 ¶ There is that maketh himself rich, yet hath nothing: there is that maketh himself poor, yet hath great riches.

Astounded said...

It's sad that you have to delete this, NASS. It makes me wonder what you are hiding.

Unless I am mistaken, she is hiding your comments.

Don't follow bepatent up that path--he knows what's up since he was here. He's going to monologue anyway, so let him...be.

"Before ya'll get to carried away..."

Yes Charlie...I noted that. I understand.

David Hall said...

WOW, how sad. How verbose.

WTL said...

Proverbs 25:8 ¶ Go not forth hastily to strive, lest thou know not what to do in the end thereof, when thy neighbour hath put thee to shame.
9 Debate thy cause with thy neighbour himself; and discover not a secret to another:
10 Lest he that heareth it put thee to shame, and thine infamy turn not away.

Three trips to Greece and Rome with a Bellevue crowd, per year would be a decent salary.

huh? Are you talking about me? I am going to guess that you are so for the record- I am a woman. The rest of what you said, whatever. It is a legitimate question that I have the right to ask.

WTL said...

Proverbs 24:7 ¶ Wisdom is too high for a fool: he openeth not his mouth in the gate.
8 He that deviseth to do evil shall be called a mischievous person.
9 The thought of foolishness is sin: and the scorner is an abomination to men.

Uh oh! Watch out!

I hate it when that happens...

Oh my goodness... between you (astounded) and AOG I may very well wake the neighbors from laughing so loud.

WTL said...

Proverbs 17:18 ¶ A man void of understanding striketh hands, and becometh surety in the presence of his friend.
19 ¶ He loveth transgression that loveth strife: and he that exalteth his gate seeketh destruction.
20 ¶ He that hath a froward heart findeth no good: and he that hath a perverse tongue falleth into mischief.
21 ¶ He that begetteth a fool doeth it to his sorrow: and the father of a fool hath no joy.

Piglet said...

Astounded said...

socwork said...

That's just wrong









And wrong.











And pathetic.










And you don't even know all the Facts!!!

New BBC Open Forum said...

aog,

Are 7/11 burritos anything like 7/11 choruses?

WTL said...

Proverbs 18:8 ¶ The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.

allofgrace said...

Are 7/11 burritos anything like 7/11 choruses?

they generally have the same effect

thing 2 said...

allofgrace,

it wasn't the burritos. i think it was the green eggs and ham. i think the cat in the hat poisoned him!

David Hall said...

You're a woman? I apologize; I don't know where I got the idea that you are a man.

WTL said...

Proverbs 13:2 ¶ A man shall eat good by the fruit of his mouth: but the soul of the transgressors shall eat violence.

Astounded said...

I think all of you Ho Ho gossip mongers are so pathetic.

For all you know my Ho Ho could have been horribly maimed in a terrible fiery bakery truck crash.

socwork said...

You're right, astounded. I'll try to stop spewing hate...

;)

allofgrace said...

WTL said...

Astounded said...

I heard it from a dependable source that my Ho Ho was blown up in a Hezbollah attack. And it was thrown clear over a 42" fence.









A trespassing Ho Ho.

Astounded said...
