I’m confused with the passages of John 3:22 and 26 and John 4:2. John 3 says Jesus baptized yet John 4 says he did not, can you explain this difference? (more…)
I noticed in your video clip titled “good congregational singing” that there was a song leader, song books, and that
someone started with a short do,me,so,do solo before the congregation sang, also during the singing there were
times when women only sang and there were times when men sang only.. how is this “congregional” when not all are
singing all the time??… then I noticed at the conclusion of your video clip there was a quartet singing while other
members of the congregation were visiting/listening/being entertained etc. Just curious where the Bible instructs
these items take place?? Please do not post my name or e-mail address just respond back to me with specific book
chapter and verse instructions authorizing the above.
In matthew 19:9 where Jesus speaks of fornication, It seems to me that the church of Christ translates that into adultery. How
can a married person commit fornication? Was he not speaking of people who have sex before they are married therefore a man
may think he’s getting a virgin when he’s not? Thank you for your answer.
Brethren;I appreciate your courage and love of the truth.
I am a member of a multi-cup congregation. I have always wondered why you make such a distinction concerning the number
of cups. Is it not the content, not the container, that the Lord commanded to “drink ye all of it”? Also, I have never heard of
anyone being quite so careful with the bread as you are of the cup - but does not the scripture indicate that the loaf was singular
by the word “it”? (Mt.26:26)(Mk.14:22)(Lk.22:19)and (I Cor.12:24) I would hope that you would be as concerned for the
number of loaf(ves) used as you are for the number of cups. I would appreciate your reply.

I went with a friend to a Church of Christ some 20 years ago. I asked a question to someone about the lack of
musical instramentation. I didn’t get an answer similar to what I have found here. The answer had something to do
with some person in the old testament who played some instrament and the sound annoyed or disturbed God in
some way or another. I would like to find that scripture again but have no idea what it was. Can you help me with the
chapter and verse(s)?(more…)
Shannon asked:
Dear Mr. Wade,One of my questions is on your comments re: women teaching. What are your thoughts about the women who
traveled with Paul teaching, and the women (the 3 daughters) who were prophets, whom Paul also knew.
My other question is in regard to “The Good News”. This is the ministry of Christ. This is what the apostles taught
and what the disciples taught. Gods amazing grace, Gods mercy, Gods love for you and I. What I see on your web
site is what not to do, what to do, and how wrong everyone else is. This gives the impression of legal lifestyle which
Christ freed us from. Getting so caught up in getting it all right is quite a heavy burden which is why we were freed
from that.
