Why Churches Must NOT Close Again

[Madman]

This is the reason I'm surprised.

The Priesthood of All Believers
The Bible affirms the value of each person as having been created in the image of God, and also declares each person morally responsible for his/her own nature and behavior. Baptists believe that inherent in the worth of each person is also the right and competency of each individual personally to deal directly with God through Jesus Christ. This principle also suggests our responsibility to serve other believers in intercession and nurture: we are priests to each other.

But you are not surprised why I believe churches should ALWAYS meet. It is through his priests Christ dispenses many of his graces.

Was reading last night and came across this quotation. Didn't know where to post it so I added it here. We need to visit our mother.

"No one can have God for his Father, who has not the Church for his mother."
-St. Cyprian of Carthage
