I was gone a while wasn’t I?

Once I get in Utube I nearly always look and listen for other music, in this case a capella music.

There is a group there all a capella called Perpetuum Jazzile. You may have heard their version of Africa.

All of their music is breathtakingly beautiful. I can’t recommend them more. 🙂

I looked them up on Youtube—very good! Thanks. Pentatonix is also good. They have a few lovely Christmas carols on YouTube ( Carol of the Bells and Little Drummer Boy) though mostly they do pop songs which I barely follow these days.

Human creativity amazes me.
 
Primitive Baptist were actually one of the original Baptist denominations. They came from England to America. They were Calvinist influenced why John Smyths (founder of Baptist theology) doctrines. They’re like any other Baptist. They only differences between them and other Baptist is that they believe Sunday School is unbiblical… I was a Baptist for a few years and hung around many Primitive Baptist.

Is that why they have bible study on Wed. night? What is “unbiblical” about Sunday School?

I’ll be interested in the reply as well…but my first thought was that it would simply be because it was not mentioned in the bible. Wouldn’t that be what “un”-biblical means? (as compared to “anti”-biblical.)

But then I thought…in the First century, didn’t the faithful gather on the first day (Sunday) for the breaking of the bread and to listen to the Apostles teach (or whoever would be the local leader/bishop)?

Trying to think what the NT DOES say on the matter.

Color me curious…

Sunday School is considered to infringe upon the family, as the basis for instruction in the faith.

No, I can’t expound upon that further.

Yes, and the verse in post 14 is probably the earliest example we have of anyone being preached to death. Paul could start anywhere in the Scriptures and preach all night. The faithful did not have a literal, physical “bible” in those days,but it sure seems to qualify as a bible study.

One of Paul’s Methodist moments.

Innate talent.

I could say that, AFAIK, children are expected to attend at least a portion of the “regular” service.

Which about exhausts my info on that particular point.
