Has anyone else noticed the recent changes in the Trinity United Church of Christ website ?
Recently; there has been some discussion over whether or not the Trinity United Church of Christ, which Obama has indicated that he is a member of, is actually a Black Seperatist or Black Supremacist Church ?? –Approximately two weeks ago; the website of the Trinity United Church of Christ had set forth their 10 " Commitments " exclusively to Black Culture, Black Community, Black Ministries, Black Families, Black Christian Experience, etc.—-Today, I observed that, for reasons unknown to me, the Trinity United Church of Christ website has been changed considerably whereby the 10 " Commitments " have been changed to 10 " Points of Vision " & many of the previous all Black references have now been deleted & now replaced with less denominational " Points of vision " re: " adoration ", etc. or " Christian Experience " as opposed to " Black Christian Experience "? – Did anyone else notice this change ? Do you think this was an attempt ( sincere or otherwise ) to change their image ?
Thank You micheala for your exacting insightful answer + flattering comment

10He who descended is the very one who ascended higher than all the heavens, in order to fill the whole universe.) 11It was he who gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers, 12to prepare God’s people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up 13until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.
14Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of men in their deceitful scheming. 15Instead
Ephesians 4
"When he ascended on high,
he led captives in his train
and gave gifts to men."[b] 9(What does "he ascended" mean except that he also descended to the lower, earthly regions[c]?
14Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of men in their deceitful scheming. 15Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into him who is the Head, that is, Christ. 16From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.
I want to hear about your church and testimonies please, I want to meet people working toward the goals and be encouraged….

"Overcomers in Christ"… anyone ever a part of this ministry?
One of the best ministries for those who battle with addictions.
Any kind of addiction, not just drugs and booze.
It’s the mind set that needs to be set free!
Great ministry look into it, and if you are an overcomer already it’s great to sit and just soak it in, God will use you to help someone else<><
Our Overcomers Groups meet regularly to share the comfort and hope found in Jesus Christ. Ongoing groups provide support and accountability. The fellowship and a safe place to share feelings draw people like a magnet. O.I.C. aptly describes what occurs.
As participants discover the practical simplicity of Christ-centered living, they often say, "Oh, I see!" (O.I.C.). These groups provide a superb opportunity for winning people to Christ and discipling them. God uses these recovered lives to revitalize and strengthen His church as they reach out to others.
Jose Luis De Jesus – Jesus Christ Incarnate?
What is anyone’s opinion(s) on the "Growing In Grace" ministry of the so-called Apostle of Grace, Jose Louis De Jesus, better known as Jesus Christ Man?
His ministry teaches that there is no such thing as sin because it was removed.
His ministry teaches that there is no Devil as he was destroyed.
His ministry teaches that there are 2 gospels.
His ministry teaches reconciliation vs. repentance.
His ministry teaches that the Church is already perfect.

Just curious if you think he’s a fruit or has some good ideas? Aside from thinking that he’s Christ in the flesh.
If blood sacrifice was so important, why did Christ forget to preach about it?
He got through the most important sermon of his ministry (Sermon on the Mount) and did not even mention blood for sin… and when, on another occasion he spoke about sacrifice he said this: "I will have mercy, and not sacrifice." (more context on the Kingdom Gospel is in my biography)
So what’s the deal here? If sacrifice was so important, why did Christ fail to even preach about it?
And he said nothing about sacrifice after the Crucifixion either.
So what’s up here?
what is the reconciliation ministry that Christ set up ambassadors to administer this ministry to? prefer —?
a Catholic responce."If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come! All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting men’s sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation. We are therefore Christ’s ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us."
mrs. smith, excuse me, but you may represent God as a believer, but you have no power to administer the sacrament of reconcilliation, the original ambassadors were all men anyway, Christ chose 12 Apostles, all were men, and all have been such ever since.
Why is a tree needed to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ that become a Christmas tree?
In other words: Why is Christmas celebrated with a tree?
Definition of :"Christ": Jesus Christ
Definition of : "Mas": Mother
I ask so many people and they dont even know.
God???????????????????????????
is "god" simply perfection? If it is then since perfection is subjective, so is god.
I mean that since perfection is completly subjecteve, so is what god is. And to all you people who say that the god of the bible is universaly perfect i think the god in the bible is FAR from perfect, some people would agree with me many more would disagree. If a universal ideal for perfection exists and is the god of the bible, shouldn’t the god of the bible appear perfect to everyone?
