THINGS YOU WON’T FIND IN OUR CHURCH
Spoof on Standards

By Ken Blue
You won’t find a screen with a bouncing ball
Our nose is in the hymnal like the Apostle Paul.
You won’t find drums or a base guitar
Or a piano — like those in honky-tonk bars.
We shun the organ; Luther called it, “The ensign of Baal”
We don’t use sound systems, we scream and yell.
Women don’t wear pants nor do they speak
We like them inferior, feeble and meek.
Power Point and Laptops are taboo and banned
We reject background music it’s carnally canned.
We don’t have air-conditioning or a patted pew
Our people love Jesus and sweat it through.
We don’t use gimmicks to reach God’s elect
Their predestined already, so what the heck.
We don’t serve coffee to the privileged guest
We’re after the chosen and ignore the rest.
We don’t preach sermons on liberty and grace
A good dose of guilt keeps people in place.
Our only ambition is to grow and thrive
All sermons are on soul winning and giving the tithe.
We don’t have television or Bibles on CD
We maintain the standards of A.D. 103.
We don’t have Internet; we reject this modern age
But we hope you do and will access our church’s web page.

Ha thats good- I am hearing from some of our (40s+) kids from private school life sounding a little sour over their (60s+) parents who ‘Out of total LOVE’ seperated them from some of these “modern” things of the world-I do ask forgiveness 🙂 and pray for their parenthood skills, and yes I must press on, looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our Faith.
God’s still working on me-Praise the Lord.
There’s only one perfect parent-> Perfect Father = God

We women soul win, study, teach, wear pants, skirts and dresses, use technology, are not quiet, correct false teaching, and LOVE our Lord Jesus Christ!! Amen.
Have a wonderful day.
P.S.
We drink coffee and tea too!

SOUNDS LIKE THE RIGHT KIND OF CHURCH.
