WORTH A DOLLAR

   By now all churches are "denominations" with some more nominal than others.

(Yes even Churches of Christ.)

Let's say a divine "Dollar" is the whole; then denominations are less than one Dollar, and each have less value than the original Dollar. The Church of the New Testament would be the original "Dollar" but because of conflation in the mixing of it with the world view; each denomination has less value than the original Dollar.

Some churches, even in apostolic times, did not have a Dollar in value, for instance, all the seven churches of Asia.

By now, most church denominations are not worth fifty cents like the church of Laodicea: "I know your works," God said, "that you are neither hot or cold... So then because you art lukewarm... I will spue you out of My mouth" (Rev 3:13-14).

That identifies the modern Church as well. On the whole, all of the denominations are either putrid and stagnant, or are headed that way.

It is our job, through prayer and acts, to keep our church denomination at full value. With that said, "Test all things and hold onto what is good" (1 Thes 5:21).

I do criticize all denominations, even my own, because I want it to be worth a Dollar.

How much do you value your church doctrine? If it has doctrines other than Christ with Him crucified and resurrected, it falls far short of the original Dollar.
