What has the world come too?

Do these people not realize that King James was not a Christian? They need to read into their stuff deeper before they go saying that the other Bibles are a "perversion". It's people like this that are so legalistic that turn people off from church. I have always heard it said that if you want a good fight just go to church. Those words are awful but so true. You have people arguing over the color carpet (churches outside of the US have dirt floors). Arguing over the temperature being too hot or too cold(other countries are the same temp inside and outside the building). Arguing over what the preacher wears...We wonder why we don't see miracles today. Are we really having true faith in God and believing or are we just wasting are time arguing over stupid stuff. Christians in the US are so spoiled.

Being in the Bible belt, good ole Georgia, I have heard it from so many people you need to wear a dress to church or a suit. Guys I dont even own a dress. I joke with my husband when he has to do a wedding or a funeral, "Well I guess we need to go buy you an outfit huh?" We recently had a guy walk into our church who was as drunk as a skunk. I walked in the back door of the church and was just overcome with the smell of alcohol and I thought to myself, "Praise God!" Ya'll its people like that that we need to be reaching out too. He was so nervous being there but he was def loved on and accepted. I am just so sick and tired of Christians putting such a black eye on Christ. Its time for churches nowadays not to worry whether or not a Bible says the instead of thou and start getting people saved. Its just going to be a matter of time before Christ comes back. Then whats going to be are excuse for not witnessing??
