Bible -believing church, and also it says, of like faith. So number one, the church should be
00:13
Bible -believing, and number two, if at all possible, and it might not be possible. If you move to an area, maybe the best church option has a few differences, so it really depends.
00:24
But here's some of the similar doctrines, the key doctrines that would be in line with what we teach.

Spurgeon said that, what, 120 years ago? And if he was around today,

I don't know what he would say, I have an idea, but obviously we want to show reverence and respect to God, and have a healthy fear of God, and that's just something that's lacking more and more.
