I found a local church and started attending there. After a couple of months, during Sunday morning service, the Pastor announced that the evening service would include the Communion observance. That evening, when it came time for the Communion service, the Pastor said only church members could actually partake, but that, "visitors" could stay and observe if they'd like. I'll let you imagine how that made me feel. It's been a growing experience because, I knew I had to hold them up in prayer but, I couldn't attend there. Nobody from the church ever reached out to me to ask why I suddenly stopped coming. Sad!
I'm so happy your found Athey Creek! You can't fully appreciate the good, had you not experienced the bad! You can even take communion with the 'Athey Creekers'! The Pastor is the real deal brother, we're blessed!
The doctrine of restricted participation in Communion is hellish and fleshly. Jesus welcomed all. We are called to give invitation to all. We do it to raise Him in the minds men. The table is open!
@MICK VICTOR It’s very sad how they excluded you and many others, I have been rejected by many churches like you ignored me at church outings ,when there were dinners , no one would invite me to sit with them , I always ended up eating alone, I would look at it like this church is a private social club and I was never invited, I started taking it that this is not where the Lord wanted me to be , I finally found a little church,where most of the members are old ,poor, have infirmary’s ,only sing the hymns , but they welcome me, I always thought it was because I was a single female and probably some of that rejection was , silly insecure people, ,but even thought I’m not amongst people my age They preach the word and they love Jesus, so I stay because they accept me and that feels like home Good luck, keep searching,ask the lord to direct you, it’s a lonely walk down here for a lot of us who just want to feel accepted and cared about.They will have to answer to God one day 🙏🙏🙏✝️✝️✝️💔💗❤️😔
I love the fact you said no membership. Wow so true we are all on the same team. I can't come to your church but, I am glad I have you as a pastor that thinks like me. I know I am not alone in this world when people hate that I talk about Jesus and try to show love they are not ready to receive. That someone out there see that forgiveness is important and the way we cast our seeds. Bible study is so important and it is hard to find. You are casting seeds to everyone not just a group and how beautiful is that!
Hello from TN! I have been listening to your ministry for over a year and enjoy the sound doctrine, wisdom and humor in your messages. My nephew Paul lives in Portland and is not a believer. Please have the church pray for him that he will find salvation through Christ and Christ alone before it is too late. I am thankful the spirit let me to this church. The teachings have been a blessing to me and I'm certain of the impact it is making on many others across this nation. God's word will not come back void, but shall accomplish that which I please and shall prosper. I John 5:14 . My trust is in these words. God bless your walk through Christ Jesus.
so why does Jesus Never rebuke anyone when they speak of reincarnation . not the priests speaking to the Baptist at the river saying Are you Elijah? , not the followers here in the garden, not of Herod barking questions at Him, not when they meet the man blind from birth and His disciple says who sinned. the fact they even asked the questions means they were taught and believed in the rebirth of the spirit until it is reborn SPIRITUALLY TO OVERCOME. and he will go out no more. Jesus IS Lord.
It sounds like Alice Cooper has been born again according to his testimony. Welcome to the family of God, dear Alice. This is an incredibly precious teaching dear Pastor.Brett❤❤❤❤❤
this bass line in hark the herald is epic! And this arrangement is awesome. Thank you for your excellence. I also LOVE the Emmanuel song-so tender AND powerful. The message is as usual right on time for me-thank you for that too❤
The Rock is the Revelation of the Holy Spirit of G-D to the Born Again Believer. It is the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit of G-D that defines the church.
And? Pray that the Holy Spirit, being poured out out ON all flesh, to convict them if their rebellion against G-s - sin - and their need for The Saviour, Jesus, will do so with Mr. Cooper. However, it's up to him, as with us all, how he responds. Same as Oprah, Elon and me. Keep praying, @jason henn.👍
Everyone pray for Elon Musk… he’s so close to salvation and the impact would be phenomenal! PRAY!!!!
I agree 🙏🙏🙏
My family has a home church but we love Athey so much we watch your service online for movie night lol. Much love to you all from Kansas. :)
Thanks for tuning in from Kansas!

That’s sad that they never reached out to you, that must have made you question why? Perhaps it’s happened to others as well.
Even Oldschool had fake news 😎aka Jesus not fully man, nor fully God
I'm so happy your found Athey Creek! You can't fully appreciate the good, had you not experienced the bad!

The Pastor is the real deal brother, we're blessed!
Not surprised at all.
Praying continued wisdom and discernment for you and for all of us, in Jesus’ name.

Pastor, I remember you saying, 'Jesus is always the answer'!
You magnified everything today beautifully!
Can't wait to share it!
Thanks a lot!

And Dennus Prager, needs a revelation of Jesus.
"Christ Consciousness" is code for "I don't believe in the True Christ".
Totally New Age. Totally FALSE.
