Akira329:
Hey Guys,

My father has ask me on numerous occasions to attend his church and just listen and point out errors when they come up.
My first thought was, "this is a set up".
But, I think my dad is trying to get me back in the church to tell them the things I've told him.
I probably would but the judge and jury are still out on whether or not he believes what I'm telling him.

He wants me to sit through one service to judge what I hear.
When I ask him why, he really doesn't give an anwser.

I mean, if I show him from scriptures that a few things are off what would it mean to him?
I have a feeling it wouldn't mean anything.

Right now, I'm unsure of his intentions for wanting me to do this.
I'm even thinking of telling him to record the service and give me the tape.
Which is much better than having to sit through service!

Has this ever come up in any of you all families?

Thanks
Antaiwan

Linny:
I don't see the point. As you said, he can get a tape and you guys can sit and discuss it. I would be surprised if they didn't sell them  ::) And as long as he isn't telling you why, there is no way I'd do it.
Thankfully, so far, none of my family knows what heretics we are,  ;)  so I haven't had this come up. My BIL is a pastor in another state. He knows some of what we believe but hasn't shared with my sister what he and my hubby discussed and she hasn't asked why we left the church. Once she does, it'll all hit the fan. SO looking forward to that day!  :D NOT!

Okay Lin and Janine....sorry but maybe we should take this view into consideration. Who is my Mother and brethren...right? Well those who do the will of God, yes. We know that the Babylonian is not doing the will of God and that IS the Will of God because God Plans that we all go against His Will BEFORE He causes us to repent. So, I think that the painful way, the way of doing as is requested by the father of Akira329, as much as it hurts....is what is going to bless the most. Hey...we are all here for you Akira329...God shall cause you to do what you prefer to do anyway and that will be in accord to the condition of your own heart. We're not here to judge you dear brother and it is difficult to see what God is calling you to experience. I am glad it is not me I can tell you that!..... :)

I was younger than you and like us all who have and are coming out of Babylon, our indoctrination was part of the Plan of God for us. I did not know that I would become adapted to the traditions and conformed to the errors until God came to drag and repent me to come out of Harlot Babylon.  I was never asked however, to point out ERRORS! Then maybe I'd know to look out for them with my blind eyes. :D :) I thought the Church I went to was inerrant! ::) :).....actually, that's not true....I never thought! :D ;D...I only started to learn to do that afterwards!

I can't say I know what is going on with your Dad but be comforted that, God is in control and is causing everything that will be for good. So maybe you should point out an error and let your Dad see that your "religion" is not causing you to become rebellious against God, but obedient, longsuffering and worthy. A sermon in evidence of living example, is worth far more than the one in speech or writing!

What does Ray say....winning an argument with cleaver lines is a hollow victory. "A person convinced against his will is of the same opinion still." :D :)

Hi Akira329
Think your father would sit down for about an hour, and seriously look at the material at bible-truths.com, if he hasn't already done so?

Hey Antaiwan. Hope all is well with you bro.

 From your quote above, it sounds like you already know your dads intentions. I think instead of blowing off the request why not ask him instead to sit down and open up a bible and go over some Scripture that you both already know to be the True Word of God and not some doctrine of demons. The Holy Spirit can then lead you both into something other than conflict,seeing that The Word never lies. Just a thought.

Joel's idea with Scripture in hand sounds like a game plan also. ;)


Peace...Mark
