Real issues are real issues

[Stan]

Example, a single women, with Child, should be able to go to her Church first, and get help going through this toughest time in her life..

These are real issues.

AND if the answer is "Let's make sure they repent first" then you should more than likely go elsewhere.

Quote:

"The Bible does not teach that the sinner must repent before he can heed the invitation of Christ, "Come unto Me, all ye that labor and are heavy-laden, and I will give you rest." Matthew 11:28. " Steps to Christ p. 26

We don't change our lives in order to come to Christ. We come to Him just as we are, He does the changing.

The statement framed as "her church" seems to imply that this one is a converted member already, no?

We need to be converted and reconverted each and every day.

Christ is standing there saying .... Come again.

I'm not converted each morning, that happened in Mark's living room when he explained the death of Christ to me in 1988. I am consecrated daily by my choice (assuming that I make the choice daily).

Thanks. I still remember how the paneling on the wall looked when my heart opened to Him who created the world. Time stood still.
