Dave, my name is Daniel. I have read, attempted to follow and have responded to "What is the point?" I was going to reply to your last set of questions, but perhaps if you want we could talk on the phone. Just so you know who I am, God granted me grace to accept the one true gospel 30 years ago. The one true gospel is the Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures (Old Testament), He was buried and He rose again the third day according to the scriptures. (Luke 24, 1 Cor 15:1-6) 20 years ago God by the same grace made a faithful minister of the gospel. Also by the preaching of the gospel He brought forth an assembly and for the past 20 years we have fellowshipped home to home. We go home to home because we have been rejected in the building made with men' s hands. Out of necessity we found ourselves fellowshipping in the home. God has been our teacher and all things have done decently and in order these past many years. If you would like to talk you can e-mail me ([email protected]) or call me at home 586-465-3505/ mobile: 586-924-2976.
In Christ,
Daniel Lang
