    Thank you Dawn! So many are being mislead by bad churches. I would go a step further, and say that Kricks church is Blasphemous! A false church, with a false pastor! She….Krick needs to repent. And that is what I will pray for her. Thank you, again, for your videos, and giving truth to a dying world.

    My wife and I live in place that has many churches, they are seeker sensitive, there are liberal, and of course, charismatic, even the reformed baptist churches are fall into the prior 3 descriptions.

    Yes Christ is the head of the church Could I please ask a question as to why has church become more self-focussed rather than the whole counsel of the God of Israel and Israel concepts..? God Bless You🙏🏼

    If a church has women for deacons does that mean it's not a church

    There is no such thing as a "healthy"Church. There is only the Church (Body of Christ) established by Christ on the foundation of the Apostles in 33 AD, that teaches the fullness of the means of salvation.

    If there are unhealthy churches then logically there are HEALTHY churches

    The church still is filled with men who while redeemed, are still prone to the flesh. That which is unhealthy can become healthy again, so a church CAN be unhealthy and riddled with sin. But by that same means it can also be redeemed. Both variants of the church could teach the fullness of salvation and the Lord would use it to accomplish the same thing. But as the parables teach us, there are tares among the wheat so a church can become unhealthy. Look at Revelations and how Christ warns various churches. I’d say that if a warning is being given to the church by Christ himself it’s a result of sin infecting or dominating the church. And by those means, I’d refer to a church dominated by sin, an unhealthy church.
