After watching the replies to different doctrinal subjects on here for a few years now, I think I seen something and wonder if I am alone in my observation. The Godhead, baptism, law and grace, gifts, ect. ect. have all seemed to follow the same pattern. Both sides give and take to a certain point and almost reach an agreement until it is realized that they are about to cross over the lines set by denominational boundries and enter the deep waters of truth and fear forces them to step back. Much as a child who cannot swim and Daddy can't teach him to swim because he refuses to turn loose follow Daddy's advice. As long as we trust more in what were were taught in the past, than we trust in the light being set before us, we cannot go forward in God. We cannot grow in Grace and the knowledge of God, until we as little children, turn loose of the table and reach toward Daddy, we will never lurn to walk.
There are exceeding great and precious promises set before the church, if the church will only step out of the rut of rituals and preconceived ideas that have withheld the blessings in the past, Canaan Land is just a very short journey ahead.
Are we content to wander in the wilderness? Or do we want to go posess the Land of Promise?

So does this mean you are going to leave your boundaries and cross over to others ideals first??
Michael; I have faced a couple of crossroads in my time where I was given the choice of embracing the "old standards of the assembly", of move on. I kinda miss those old folks back home.
ok, read the article (awesome read by the way), but i am now left with a different question...what is the use of organized religion then?

I can't say that!
