Tom, God is using you in HIS TIME! What a blessing covid was to bring such clarity to us now and you are part of this. It is like HE is bringing us together in A FRESH and RIGHT way….. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I see a like for the video, maybe that one is yours. Thank you. I am persuaded that Tom's research and conclusions are exactly correct. In fact, I had reached some of the same conclusions years ago and I was gratified that his extensive research validated my own conclusions. Let's pray his research is widely disseminated.
I am with you- I have felt for years the church building scenario doesn’t fit. For one thing it is a burden to people financially to have to pay a mortgage for a building that is rarely used.
Hey, brother Lawrence. Thank you for your fantastic interview with Tom. A have a question: did you find his dissertation online for free or did you have to pay for it? If it is free, where can I find it?
I wasn't able to find it online. I contacted Tom through his website asking for a copy and he sent it to me. If you contact him I bet he'll send you a copy. www.tomwadsworth.com/contact
One of the reasons why the current churches have gone wrong is mixing the activities of the old testament with those of the new testament hence they come up with a blend of activities.
Actually (6:02) the purpose is to give people "head knowledge" so they can overcome objections when out trying to persuade people to become Christians ... or at least church members. Much of my church experience was academic pursuit, and I knew a lot about the Bible. I could play Bible trivia games and prevail. But there was little character development.
Salvation is not a one time prayer. It is Salvationship Baptism is not a ritual, it is a covenant. Holy Spirit is a revelationship, He reveals Jesus (truth) to us. We are not going to the Heaven our Father resides in. We will meet Jesus in the air and come back to earth. It's all about being in salvationship with Jesus led by Holy Spirit everyday. We should never be born again out of fear. We should be born again out of love and appreciation for Jesus.
Jesus gave to the Apostles the Authority to preach & teach the truth. Does Authority, therefore, matter to be able to preach & teach the truth, and to ensure that it continues that the preaching and teaching is done correctly should not that Authority be passed on by those who had/have the Authority to preach and teach the truth or can anyone preach & teach, whatever they like without that Authority??? Would anyone allow someone to teach their children if that person has no authority to teach children??? Why is this so difficult to understand.

The religious system has deceptively redefined almost every important biblical word in the bible. Thank you for your work.
I clicked the thumbs up button and it still remained at zero. Just FYI. I don’t go to a church because it troubles my soul. I’m with Tom 100%.
