You are right, that is exactly how it needs to be done. The old corporation is dissolved completely. Then the church would need to give itself a new name, as keeping the old name that is on the old corporation papers, the old property title and the old bank accounts could eventually cause legal headaches.

So, to answer your questions, Yes, they need the Gospel like anyone else, but no, it would not be beneficial to the refugees since they would not be getting the Gospel.

It appears to me, that the denominations that are currently involved with the Refugee Resettlement Programs that fastjav390 linked to are not preaching the gospel to the refugees. In fact, they are not preaching the gospel to those already in their churches. Yes, all refugees need the gospel. I am not, nor the churches that I report to, in any way, or manner, against honest, freedom loving, refugees from any country. The point we are making in this thread is the illegal immigration into the Unites States and the false usage of the word 'refugee,' in order to gain entry to the United States by Muslim terrorists and those who miss-use the government agencies here in America for material gain. I have been to numerous solid, straight as an arrow, IFB churches that love folks of all races, creeds, and countries. In these IFB churches they have ministries within the church to various other people groups. In these IFB churches I have seen ministries to Muslims, Hispanics, Chinese, Laotion (refugees from Laos), Vietnamese, and other non English speaking nationalities. I myself have partricipated in Chinese outreaches. The good work of the IFB churches among other nationalities, refugees, etc..., is not mentioned by the press, news organizations, or mainline denominations. In fact, the good work among the IFB churches to refugees and non-English speaking nationalities, are deliberately ignored by the mainline press and the religious news organizations.

While I'm sure a small percentage moved to Sweden with thankful hearts and good motives, the majority have turned Sweden into a mess of crimes, hostility, "no-go" areas, etc. The video focused on the rising crimes against women, and showed how the Swedish media refuses to identify criminals race or culture, and the police's hands are tied and many crimes go unpunished. At the very end, a few young liberals were interviewed and asked if the rise in violent crimes and the country's first terrorist attack was due to the influx of refugees. They insisted there was no connection and to even think so was racist. The same thing is happening in America, people are putting their heads in the sand and screaming "no connection, racist!" edit: forgot to add, there have been reporters from other countries go to Sweden to positively report on the success of Sweden's refugee acceptance, but have been physically attacked and beaten by the very people they were wanting to portray as victims of other countries refusal to accept them. edit2: Here's the video I saw: Edited February 14, 2017 by Rebecca Ronda, John Young, Alan and 2 others 5 Report Link to post Share on other sites

I am not implying he has done everything right (no one does) but I believe that he has done some really good things we may never see in the newspapers or main line media. That said Mr. Obama surely went against the wishes of the American public with what is referred to as Obama Care, had there been a vote of Americans the insurance plan would never have gotten to first base.

The comments by Orval are correct and indicative of the world's attitude towards those people (whether in the church or not), who do right. An individual can see this in politics, business, church history, history of the Jews, and in some churches. One of the reasons why the true church history of true local New Testament churches, and the history of correct doctrine, is skewed (or distorted), is that the false teachers among the churches are more numerous than true teachers of the scriptures. False teachers of the scriptures, and denominational teachers, will ignore, disparage (or to speak of in a slighting way), speak with a negative slant, of those within the true churches. We are seeing this negative speaking, and writing (especially among internet theologians), of men of God even within the IFB churches.

As Dale Carnegie aptly put it, I am 'trying to win friends,' (I think all of you know the rest of the phrase). Brethren, My sole intention on this thread is to express the good things that President Trump is doing to help our country become a great country. Hopefully, he will do so according to the law of the land; the Constitution. And, hopefully, the House of Representatives and Senate will act like Statesmen, and not politicians with a personal agenda, and get behind some of the good things that President Trump is trying to pass into law. The United States has almost been destroyed through the lawlessness, liberal, globalist, and communistic agenda of the Obama administration. I sense that President Trump is trying very hard to get rid of the destructive agenda, destructive regulations, and destructive personnel that permeates the 'swamp at DC.' Therefore, this thread is to post those good actions of President Trump. I do not think Trump's action of Health care is beneficial for America, so, I do not care to discuss it, nor is it in the realm of the intention of this thread.

Especially when there is no proof that Assad had anything to do with it except from what the "White Helmets" have said who have already been proven to be in league with Al-Qaeda. Trump said during his campaign he would not get involved over there with regime changes that only make matters worse. This has the Neo-Con stamp of approval all over it. I'm also disappointed with him selecting Kevin Hassett as his economic advisor. Hassett is 100% pro-illegal immigration and outsourcing and is a former chairman of the Council of Foreign Relations.

That is what we have in the forum “wondrous variety” enjoy it. I have been away for a while, so forgive me for popping in abruptly. But I felt the need to make a correction here; "allah" is NOT God. He is the "god" of islam. Ask any muslim and they will tell you that "allah has no son". The One true God... the God of Abraham ,Isaac, and Jacob, the God who created all things, the Alpha and Omega, the omnipotent and omniscient God the Father DOES INDEED have a Son... His only BEGOTTEN Son, Christ Jesus. Therefore the "god" they call "allah" is not at all the same God I worship. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Sorry for disrupting your thread, brother Alan. I am just now reading and catching up some... an excellent thread on the topic. I must also say that we knew where the US was headed under the past democrat administration, and it was NOT in the direction of Christian rights and freedoms. While President Trump is not a perfect man (none are), he DOES stand for the constitution, Christian freedoms, he has avowed to be a friend to Israel, and it could very well be that the Lord has given us a reprieve to give the gospel to the lost in these last days. Had the left won, there is little doubt in my mind that we would have seen even MORE loss of freedoms, and MORE trampling of the constitution than we already have. Censorship from the left is on the rise... I can attest to being banned for 24 hours on facebook for sharing a Bible verse (Isaiah 5:20, ironically). Other sisters in Christ have ALSO been given bans for sharing either sermon videos or scripture as well. The media (including social media) in the US are predominantly owned by the left. They want to shut free speech down and control the narrative in the hopes that they will again win the presidency in 2020. The President is correct in calling the media out for their bias and complete censorship of all things conservative as well as Christian. For that reason I pray in thankfulness to the Lord that He has given us this reprieve, however short it may end up being, to share the gospel freely in public. I also pray for our president every day, as scripture tells us to: 1 Tim. 2:1-41 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; 2 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. 3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; 4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. Maranatha! 1Timothy115, Alan, heartstrings and 1 other 4 Report Link to post Share on other sites

Maranatha! I'm concerned about what's going on. I don't think that people really understand that Islam has existed for like 1400 years ( I think) and we in America have only existed for about 240 years . Islam has hated us even before we were a thought. Edited May 2, 2017 by abbey Link to post Share on other sites
