More than an “incident” happened friend…you mean hit and run? leaving scene without rendering aid? lying to cops?

So I give you direct proof VDH is pro USA military intervention in all of the above and you throw epithets against me?

You sound like a sane and reasonable person.

Ultimately, as a Reformed Protestant, my standard is not the Didache or any other church father, but the Scriptures to determine what right worship is.

Interesting how you begin your post identifying as a “Reformed Protestant”…can’t find that anywhere in the lexicon of Christianity until post-1519 AD and definitely not in the Holy Scriptures…let’s hold onto that point as you like to refer further on whether or not something is “scriptural”.

Please advise what the Holy Scriptures “determine what right worship is” since you just dismissed what Church Fathers have taught and practiced…maybe you can provide a list of Church Fathers that Reformed Protestants don’t believe taught “right worship” or even better, those who do.

my point was that if you're going to say that church history supports you, you can't pick and choose which history you want to use to make that determination

---

Interesting words sir. I guess you’re “picking and choosing which history you want to use” by saying “right worship” is only found in the Holy Scriptures and not also passed down by Church Fathers inspired by the Holy Spirit through Holy Traditions.

Let’s start here, as what you typed in response to my post is a whole other ball of wax to unpack.

Imagine being a grown man concerned about another man’s post activity…you always stand out as a bootlicker so thanks for further exposing your cultish tendencies.

Republicans sure are suckers. You have no idea what you're normalizing and how this will be weaponized against you in the future.

Amazing how students hate whites and Christians constantly for the past 15 years and it's fine but they become anti-Israel and suddenly we're strong against them and will vet each student's social media to make sure they're pro-Israel?

Post of the month…wish i had more upvotes to give.

I only mentioned it because the Orthodox and Catholic Churches have created a lot of elaboration in their worship that go beyond the simplicity of worship described in that document.

---

What elaboration, specifically regarding Orthodoxy? Have you attended Divine Liturgy in an Eastern and/or Oriental Orthodox Church? The very purpose of the Divine Liturgy is to receive the body and blood of Christ and worship Him.

I assume you’re a Protestant…please explain how your particular denomination - or any Protestant denomination anywhere - practices with more “exactness” the mysteries of the Eucharist than the Orthodox.

Furthermore, you stated “many Reformed and Presbyterian” churches observe the Eucharist “every” Lord’s Day. I am unaware of “many” but please provide an example of a juridiction/denomination that does do I can check into it.

Does your church? If not…why not? This is a clear teaching of Christ and His Apostles and Church Fathers from the beginning. To depart is heresy.

The Didache and other early writings display a simple worship within the Church.

---

Interesting you reference the Didache and worship. I think you need to read the entire thing - it’s short. The Didache EXPLICITLY lays out the Holy Mysteries that Orthodox observe faithfully, including Baptism, Eucharist, prayer, fasting, and anointing with oil.

No they don’t. Be serious and not obstinate to win an argument.

Sitting at a law firm or running a classroom for 20 years vs spending 2 decades in combat arms is like comparing dog years to humans…not even the same universe of wear and tear.
