I have been a member of Calvary Chapel Orrington (Bangor) for three and a half years and my wife and I have just left this church because of the "same" abuses Skip Heitzig perpertrated at Albuquerque. Ken Graves is doing the very "same" things in his church! This is an abomination to the Word Of God and no true Christian should be a part of all these lies and underhanded dealings. I am "ashamed" to have ever been a part of the Calvary Chapel movement. Shame on you Pastor Chuck Smith for "allowing" these practices to go on in your movement. The pastor at Calvary Orrington spends 2 to 3 weeks every month "away" from his church "country-clubing" around the country on the church members money allowing the "flock" to flounder with no leadership. When he is here, he spends most of the Sunday Service playing music for 45 minutes and the last half hour telling stupid stories and jokes with hardly 5 minutes of Scripture teaching. There are a lot of Christians "young" in The Lord and they need "Spiritual Food" not insignificant "dribble"! Pastor Chuck, you are allowing a "gross" miscarriage of justice in your Calvary Chapel movement and it's up to "YOU" to rebuke and reprove this type of behavior. The "BALL" is in "YOUR" court, what are you going to do about it?Man Of Truthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10817674033704496738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23485607.post-1147542471941542992006-05-13T10:47:00.000-07:002006-05-13T10:47:00.000-07:00I have read most of the articles regarding this to...I have read most of the articles regarding this topic and find the one entitled “Christian Leader Supports Calvary” leaning more toward relevance than the others. There are those who have no interest in seeing God's work succeed, and those who do. It is easy to tell who is who by what they say.<BR/><BR/>What is the bottom line here? The struggle of personalities? The struggle of conflicting opinions both inside and outside of the church? Will any of these exist beyond the average 70 years of life each human possesses?<BR/><BR/>Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever. He is the Way, the TRUTH, and the Life. No man comes to the Father except through Him.<BR/><BR/>Again I say, what is the bottom line? Jesus, and Him crucified! 1John 2:17 (NKJV) And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
