The Unchurched on Clubhouse

Description

This club is for the scattered ones... those blood bought believers in the Lord Jesus Christ who do not attend traditional church services, or who are disillusioned with all forms of legalism and denominations. This is NOT a denomination. This is a online assembly of believers who come together when led. No legalism, false/exalted doctrines will be tolerated here.

"It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery."

Galatians 5:1

Churchianity – defined as a usually excessive or narrowly sectarian attachment to the practices and interests of a particular church, organization, or denomination.

The “Institutional” Church - This term refers to a religious system (NOT a group of people) that operates as an organization which exists above, beyond and independent of the members who populate it. Its whole construction is heavily dependent on “programs” and “ritual” rather than relationship with Christ. It’s very survival depends on the financial assistance, and physical labor, and voluntary participation of the “laity” while the professional “clergy” class are the figure heads which run the organization. This system has structure, ideologies, practices and doctrines, many of which I will blog about here. Other synonymous terms will also be used such as “Traditional Church,” “Modern day Church,” “Babylonian Church” etc.

The bible describes the church as Christ’s LITERAL BODY. 1 Peter 2 describes the body of Christ as living stones being built up into a spiritual house that is the body. Paul in 1 Corinthians 12 has even described the people of God as the “body.” The human body is a living breathing organism where every member functions in harmony with one another in their designated roles. The body of Christ is no different. While there is no perfect scenario or model of how the Church should “look,” fellowship amongst Christians should be done in a way which does not prohibit the gifts of Christians from being exercised, and every member from functioning.
