MONO—ONE WIFE/ONE HUSBAND Presbyterian Church in Revolt Over Basic Monogamy Rule — Critics Cry “White Privilege” The Presbyterian Church (USA) is facing internal backlash after proposing that ordained clergy must be in monogamous relationships. Progressive groups are opposing it, claiming the standard promotes “white privilege” and ignores “lived realities” of diverse communities. This is not complicated. Scripture has always been clear for church leaders: “Therefore an overseer must be above reproach, the husband of one wife…” (1 Timothy 3:2; see also 1 Timothy 3:12 and Titus 1:6). Mainline denominations continue drifting from biblical truth, redefining marriage in 2014 and now debating polyamory. Faithful Christians know God’s design for marriage and leadership hasn’t changed. Cultural accommodation is emptying churches — fidelity to Scripture is the path back. Time to stand firm on God’s Word. #PresbyterianChurch #Monogamy #BiblicalTruth #ChristianLeadership #OneManOneWoman #ScriptureAlone #MainlineDecline #FaithfulChurch #WhitePrivilegeMyth #DefendBiblicalMarriage

The moment we abandon Scripture as the final authority, we open the door to endless opinions and confusion. The 66 Books remain the standard. No addition. No subtraction. Before teaching, ask yourself: Is this doctrine clearly rooted in Scripture, or is it built on assumptions, philosophy, and human reasoning? And on what basis does anyone claim that Jesus did not preach the Father? The words of Jesus testify otherwise. He came to reveal the Father, do the Father's will, and glorify the Father. If your teaching cannot be supported by the inspired Scriptures, it is not the faith once delivered to the saints. The Church is called to follow the Word, not trends; revelation, not speculation; truth, not personalities. Let us handle the Scriptures with reverence and humility. "To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them." Isaiah 8:20 "Earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints."Jude 1:3 @AgborMoses34 @Iam_MrEben @sirmapy @Pst_stephenidam @PhtEmmanuelO @RealDonvic001 @Hagiozman @NekoMeowBNB #BibleStudy #ChristianFaith #SoundDoctrine #JesusChrist #ScriptureAlone

Not every biblical doctrine is written as a single sentence with a ready made label attached to it. But that does not make it less biblical. The truth of God is not found only in isolated phrases. It is found in the whole counsel of Scripture, in what God has said directly, and in what His words necessarily teach when read faithfully. “The sum of Your word is truth, and every one of Your righteous ordinances is everlasting” (Psalm 119:160). This matters because some reject sound doctrine simply because they cannot find the exact word printed on the page. But the question is not only, “Is the term found there?” The better question is, “Does Scripture teach the truth behind it?” Jesus Himself reasoned from Scripture this way. He proved the resurrection from God’s words to Moses, saying, “I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob” (Matthew 22:32). The doctrine was not stated in the exact form His opponents demanded, but it was truly there in the meaning of the text. At the same time, we must be careful. This does not give anyone permission to smuggle human traditions into the faith and call them biblical. No doctrine has the right to bind the conscience unless it comes from Scripture or is necessarily taught by Scripture. “All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness” (2 Timothy 3:16). The church must not invent truth. It must receive truth. It must not force Scripture to serve tradition. It must bow before the Word of God and confess only what God has revealed. True doctrine does not begin with man’s imagination. It rises from the text, is governed by the text, and leads the soul back to the God who has spoken.

@iamrjknight #truth #scripturealone Every Christian denomination and for that matter those who refer to scripture but are not sound scripturally quote scripture. There is a BIG difference in holding to what scripture says and nothing but what scripture says versus creating a systematic framework by picking and choosing proof texts out of context and then claiming scripture says that. One can say they believe scripture teaches x or y but to claim it days something it doesn't is being unfaithful to the Word of God.

Why is it that lds aka Mormons changed the word of God? The Warning of Galatians 1:8-9 ​"But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed..." ​ The Apostle Paul gave a severe warning against any "other gospel." Yet, many see the Joseph Smith Translation (JST) used by the LDS Church as exactly that...changes that alter core biblical doctrines. ​ Here is the direct evidence. Look at these side-by-side comparisons: ​1. The Deity of Christ (John 1:1) ​KJV: “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” ​JST: “In the beginning was the gospel preached through the Son... and the Son was of God.” ​ 2. The Nature of God (John 4:24) ​KJV: “God is a Spirit...” ​JST: “For unto such hath God promised his Spirit...” (removes “God is a Spirit”) ​ 3. Justification by Faith (Romans 4:5) ​KJV: God justifies the ungodly by faith. ​JST: God justifies not the ungodly. ​ 4. Anger & Sin (Matthew 5:22) ​KJV: “whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause...” ​JST: (Removes “without a cause” — making all anger sinful.) ​ The Verdict ​These are just a few of the thousands of changes found in the JST. Many of these alterations conveniently align with later LDS doctrines that developed in the 19th century, yet they have zero support from ancient Bible manuscripts. ​Paul’s warning still stands: If it’s a different gospel, it is accursed... no matter how sincere the messengers. ​ My take: LDS are false prophets, just not as bad as some groups that sway believers completely away from Christ. They are another group confused in God’s word. I follow the Bible. ​ Test everything against Scripture alone (Acts 17:11). Jesus the unchanging Word is enough. #Bible #Faith #ScriptureAlone

The authority of the Christian faith does not rest on traditions, councils, or the opinions of men, but on the unchanging Word of God. Church history can be valuable, but it must always remain subject to Scripture, never above it. The true Church bows before God’s revealed truth, recognizing that His Word alone is infallible, sufficient and final. #SolaScriptura #BibleTruth #WordOfGod #NathanBusenitz #ChristianFaith #BiblicalAuthority #ReformedTheology #ScriptureAlone #TruthMatters #BiblicalKnowledge

True believers will repent of their sin and receive God’s forgiveness. harvest.org/resources/devoti… via @GregLaurie MY SAY: Thank you for this powerful devotion on 1 John 2:19. “These people left our churches, but they never really belonged with us; otherwise they would have stayed with us.” As a retired U.S. Army Major and Global Methodist, I see this truth playing out in real time. In the United Methodist Church, unrepentant sin was embraced at the highest levels. The Book of Discipline was deliberately changed to affirm same-sex marriage and openly gay clergy — choices that directly contradict the clear teaching of Scripture on marriage, sexuality, and holiness. The faithful who could not go along with that did not “leave the faith.” They left an institution that had already left the historic Christian faith. They formed the Global Methodist Church — staying true to Scripture, to repentance, and to the God who calls us to be holy as He is holy. True believers, as you rightly say, are “profoundly affected when they give in to sin.” They repent. They return to the cross. They do not rewrite God’s Word to accommodate the culture. This is why the Protestant Reformation still matters: we follow Scripture alone, not a man, not a denomination, not the latest vote at General Conference. Praying for every true believer — no matter the label — to stand firm in the Word, repent quickly when we stumble, and find our unity at the foot of the cross. The cost was too great for us to treat sin lightly. #SolaScriptura #GlobalMethodist #Repentance #ScriptureAlone #TrueFaith

I appreciate the passion for Scripture and for calling people back to the Word alone. As a retired US Army Major and Global Methodist, I stand with the Protestant Reformation on this: we follow Scripture, not a man. What’s different in our day — and what the Reformation always pointed toward — is that the common person can now research any question in the Bible for themselves. No gatekeepers. No need to take anyone’s word for it. We can read the original texts, study the context of Matthew 16:18, examine church history, and ask honest, pointed questions about claims of legitimacy, apostolic succession, and institutional authority. That’s exactly why the whole structure and history of the Catholic Church is under fresh scrutiny today. Tools like AI let everyday believers cut through centuries of tradition and test everything against the unchanging Word.I’m not here to attack fellow Christians, but truth matters. Sola Scriptura means we test every claim — including Rome’s — against Scripture alone.Let’s keep seeking clarity in the Word together.Praying for unity where it can be found, and moral clarity for all believers — especially our veterans carrying real wounds from real conflicts. What say you? #SolaScriptura #Reformation #ScriptureAlone #ChristianUnity #TruthSeeking
ENOUGH of the Roman deception! The Catholic Church is NOT the “first Church,” the “mother Church,” or the rock Christ built upon. That’s a man-made lie used to prop up a Pope no apostle ever knew. Look at the text they twist: “Simon Peter answered, ‘You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.’ Jesus replied, ‘Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah… And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it.’” (Matthew 16:16-18)“On this rock” does NOT mean Peter himself. Peter (Petros) = a small stone. The Rock (Petra) = the massive bedrock of Peter’s confession: “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” The Church is built on faith in Jesus Christ, not on a man, not on “apostolic succession,” not on Rome. The true Church exploded at Pentecost when thousands confessed Christ as Lord (Acts 2). Jerusalem, not Rome, was the center. The apostles were a team under the Headship of Christ alone. No Pope in the New Testament. No “mother church” in the New Testament. Only one foundation: “For no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ” (1 Corinthians 3:11). Wake up. Be convicted. Be inspired. Ditch the traditions that exalt a man over the Messiah. Stand on the unchanging Word and the unshakable Rock, Jesus Christ alone. The gates of hell will not prevail against the Church built on faith in Him.
