Happy Turkey-Day, Canuck, for what that's worth where you are. I wonder how this will affect the addicted, alcoholic street-people who find it hard enough to seek help...now they have to feel LOWER than all that, because of their skin-color. Christian Organization, my happy pink ass !! Good-Bye, Sally... F.J.B.

Sadly, that statement will get you a beating at a B*M r**t. Or speech.

lindajoy Loc: right here with you....

Its a movement that will run its course and then die off…H**e never wins out~~~

lindajoy Loc: right here with you....

Yes, but we do not have to allow it or participate in it either….Rise above it and if you are forced into defending yourself, family, friends, locked and loaded becomes necessary!

Happyy Happy to you…

It, as you know is more than sad. Now because of "woke" idiocy many of the needy will not be served, or will have to go elsewhere for help, (and where will that be, and how will the needy find it?) But to continue to support/donate/defend is no longer possible, to do so only encourages this a*********n.

Salvation Army beliefs do not include the two ordinances, i.e., sacraments, that other Christian denominations do.

The "Salvation Army" has always done many good works... but if you investigate their doctrines since their beginning, be not surprised at their disobedience to Scripture, for so it began.

On the evening before His crucifixion, Jesus Christ gave a lengthy private teaching to His disciples. As part of the instruction, during His discourse in the upper room Jesus said, "If you love Me, you will keep My commandments" (John 14:15).

The Salvation Army was established by William Booth, a former Methodist minister in England in 1878. Its official creed book, "The Salvation Army Handbook Of Doctrine", is published by its international headquarters in London. It requires its officers of all ranks, that their teaching shall conform to their eleven "Articles Of Faith."

The Salvation Army does not baptize and does not partake of Holy Communion, i.e., the Lord’s Supper. Although they routinely hold Worship Services, where they evangelize, and make disciples, they say that Baptism and the Lord’s Supper are neither necessary to salvation nor essential to spiritual progress. (Handbook pp. 185-186).

The Christian life is to be guided and filtered through the Holy Scriptures and God’s leading by the Holy Spirit.

The keeping of the commandments of God is proof that we love Him:
"For this is the love of God that we keep His commandments: and His commandments are not grievous," Jesus said in 1 John 5:3.
"He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth Me," John 14:21.
"If a man love Me he will keep My words." Vs.23.
"He that loveth Me not keepeth not My sayings." Vs.24.

Can an organization, either a denomination, as they claim to be, or a parachurch organization, doing good works in Jesus name, be seen as Christian in God's eyes, if they willfully choose to disobey Jesus' commandments as recorded in the Bible?

1. Jesus Christ set the example for us to be baptized. Baptism is the first step of obedience that anyone who believes on and accepts God's free gift of Salvation through Jesus Christ is called on to do. It symbolizes to the world our burial with Him, and arising to new life/new birth.

Acts 2:38 "Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost."

2. Holy Communion or the Lord's Supper, is the 2nd of the two sacraments or ordinances that Jesus gave us as signs and seals of his grace in the lives of believers, to be a central feature for the benefit of His church.

Luke:22:19-20 "And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave it unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me."

In a culture of convenience, choice and preference, everyone wants it their own way but if having it one's own way means it is not God’s way, it is therefore disobedience.

Matthew 7:21-23 In Jesus' own words...
21 “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.
22 On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’
23 And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’
