Chatechisem.... what is that?

ok so as a Roman Catholic as well as a Nazarene I see a great deal of inadequacies of the Nazarene RE system. We tend to skip around in the scriptures too much.. we do not give our young people the opportunity to understand their faith. I believe that to do this we must create a catechism for the Nazarene church that puts our faith in a way that all can understand.

please comment!

I have started this blog for a place to learn, and share. I would love it is you would all comment your thoughts on my posts!

women bishops............ no..

ok so I posted about women pastors/ priests, but did not broch the subject of women bishops... my view is the same on this subject... no... just... no. women can not be the FATHERS of a family. the scriptures say "This is a true saying, If a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work. A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach; Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous; One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity; (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?) Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil. Moreover he must have a good report of them which are without; lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil." these passages are from 1st timothy 3:1-8. all of these verses talk about the positions of men never a women.


 

Nazarenes suck at writting Theology classes.

so going through my ministerial classes I have come to this conclusion..  Nazarenes suck at writing theology classes! one single session on the topic of sin, and not hardly any real information on the first sin of Adam, or even the continued sin of all men!
