Otter Creek Church of Christ

Ray,

 

Reference the Otter Creek church: what they are doing is why the Church of Christ must have a forthright, Bible supported, discussion of our Sunday ritual. Like the Pharisees of old the Church of Christ claims its traditions are commanded by God.

 

Nowhere does the Bible support the contention that Sunday a day to worship. The Bible does not command worship nor are specific acts designated as acts of worship.

 

The human author of Hebrews said we assemble to encourage each other to love and good works. Assuming the human author was inspired the Holy Spirit says we assembly to encourage each other to love and good works.

 

What Otter Creek is doing is the future of the Church of Christ. What in the Bible suggests what they are doing is "sin?" Someone said to always be ready to give a reason for hope we have. I believe that means Bible supported reasons. When our grandchildren are our age the church will not be as it is today.
