Cult

I went to church everyday almost for a year and a half, when I started college, at SIU there. Towards the end of my experience at this evil place, the pastor had me convinced I was possessed by demons and he would not cast them out. Avoid at all costs. For the love of God! The music was good, if you like to feel guilty and cry.

Is it my nose or is it the church? I Cor. 11:17 says, "In the following directives I have no praise for you, for your meetings do more harm than good." Personally, I subscribe to the Gospel of Grace, the Gospel of Inclusion, and Universalism. check out The Gospel Revolution . You created an excellent website by the way! I posted links up on reddit, digg, and delicious. Also, I heard of this website from WGN 720 AM.... your brother, In Christ.

by the way, that experience in the legalistic Calvary Campus was 20 years ago. and my other experience was just a few years after that. After growing up in the church, and under law, I HAD to find a way to TRUE salvation, which I found in the Love of God. For some reason, the 'Universe' (my parents) had me indoctrinated in some bad churches... maybe to spur my 'evolution' so I could lead others out of bondage.
