<blockquote><font size=1>In reply to:</font><hr>[color:"blue"]I don't know, but my impression of the house church movement has been that it more frequently involves an anti-authority mindset than a genuine return to a New Testament pattern.</font><hr></blockquote><p> <br><br><br>(Fred) I look forward to other's thoughts upon this issue, but your comment is what I have encountered. Pratically every house church supporter I have come across is someone who is basically leading a group of people who couldn't get along with their original church denomination. They either had discipline problems, got rubbed wrong by someone, or just don't like authority itself. I am sure there are legitmate individuals who hold to housechurches, but the ones I have come across have all been a little wacked, doctrinalwise.<br><br>Fred
