EGYPT CHRISTIAN CHURCH
ACTS 2:46-47
And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart,47 Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.
I wanted to list all of my house church experiences and some of the recordings we did to build up the body of Christ. I hope they bless you as they have blessed us over the years.
Our first experiences with the body of Christ meeting in our home was in Hawaii as we occasionally hosted the saints of God to come over for fellowship, food, praise, prayer and once in a while we’d do studies. This was from 2004-2007 in Ewa Beach, Hawaii in our tiny 1200 sq foot home where we’d see sometimes dozens of people come, it was a wonderful taste of what would become many years of hosting in our home. My wife is a very patient and wonderful hostess. I praise God for her all the time!
Rom 16:3-5
3Greet Priscilla and Aquila my helpers in Christ Jesus: 4Who have for my life laid down their own necks: unto whom not only I give thanks, but also all the churches of the Gentiles. 5Likewise greet the church that is in their house. Salute my well beloved Epaenetus, who is the firstfruits of Achaia unto Christ.
In 2008 we moved from our beloved Hawaii to North Carolina to begin full time preaching ministry with Jesse Morrell and Kerrigan Skelly. Our families met weekly in our home that the year that we were there. We called it Refining Fire Fellowship, Jesse’s suggestion as I remember. Jesse and Krista moved onto Texas and we moved to Ky where Kerrigan and his family joined us about six months later with the intention of continuing home church with Kerrigan teaching and our large families gathering. It was a blessed and sweet time. We met like this in our home with other families joining to where we had 50 people including children meeting weekly by 2014. It became a strain on everyone and due to unfortunate circumstances it was dissolved with a remnant remaining. We called the remnant Living Stones Fellowship and within a some years members moved on to other areas and we continued our walk with the Lord, seeking fellowship whether in our home or.
REFINING FIRE FELLOWSHIP Dec 2007 – June 2015
LIVING STONES FELLOWSHIP Sept 2015 – Mar 2019
WE SOUGHT TO HAVE FELLOWSHIP IN MANY OF OUR LOCAL ‘CHURCHES’ from
April 2019-April 2024 McCormick Ridge Holiness Church, Egypt Christian Church, Columbia Christian Church, Sparksville Nazarene Church, Elkhorn Methodist Church.
Unfortunately, most of these fellowships are in apostasy with members in open sin and no correction from the leaders. Some of the deep problems in these and most churches in the west are:
1. Sinners rule the roost of the local church from the greatest to the least. No one considers themselves to be sanctified by the Holy Ghost and walking in obedience to our King or the Gospel. Heb 2:3 What shall become of them?
2. Leaders not willing to consider active evangelism/witnessing for themselves or their ‘sheep’ in the manner evidenced by our Master, the Apostles, and disciples throughout the centuries but especially the first three centuries of the church. No office of the evangelist allowed to enable everyone to understand the methods and doctrines.
3. No Berean attitudes from the student or the teachers, thus the stagnation continues generation to generation. No questions from the pupils or teachers, this would generate ‘strife’.
4. The open air ministry on the streets/campuses was too much for them. Often considered to be unloving and ‘Not the way Jesus would do ministry.’
5. The doctrines taught from the pulpit were not cogent with the Bible.
