      Although churches of Christ are included in the list above [as the “religious world” thinks that it is a religious body, just another denomination], contrary to the apostates and change agents’ suggestion that the church of Christ is divided—and is, therefore, not any different from others—it is noteworthy that statistical data “out there” does NOT separately list “one cuppers” from “no Sunday School” congregations, etc. We must acknowledge the significance of it all.

      Do you see why the proponents of the Change Movement among churches of Christ would have you convinced that ecumenism is the way to go—i.e., churches of Christ should just openly fellowship with others regardless of doctrine? How absurd and impractical!

      The change agents who conveniently call for unity with various denominations which claim to be “Christian” would not be able to respond to the big questions—which of these religious bodies would you consider the church of Christ being united with?

      1. If the response is “with all of the above,” then, it ain’t gonna happen.

      2. If the response is “NOT with all of the above”—which means being “selective”—which ones would the change agents object to being united with the “body of Christ”? And how would they determine the methodology for choosing? Ecumenism among selected churches has been attempted many times before. It has NEVER worked.

      Isn’t it about time for the change movers to leave the church alone? Otherwise, the change agents—those who sow discord in the brotherhood—should start their own from scratch.

      I didn’t bother to count the number of divided religious bodies listed above, even though several denominations identified with their localities (country, province, regions, continent, etc.) have already been removed.

      Would someone care to count the number of religions from the three (3) sets of unordered list of churches, and post the total below?

    ...........................THE BOOK

    What Happened At the Madison Church of Christ?


    There are thousands of churches being taken over across America.

    This book is only about one of those churches. It's about the Madison Church Of Christ. By studying the methods used here along with the resource references you might be able to inoculate your church. At the very least you will recognize the signs early on.

    Many of the current members of the Madison Church of Christ still don't know what happened.
    Some never will know! This book is for them as well.

    Madison Church of Christ was a 60 year old church. At one time it was one of the largest churches in the US, and the largest Church of Christ.

    It thrived for many years on the vision of it's elders and those of it's ministers. Those visions undoubtably came from the the inspired word of Jesus Christ.

    At sometime in the last 10 years there was a deliberate plan by a majority of the elders to take the Madison Church of Christ into a more worldly realm.

    They used secrecy, covert planning, and outside sources to scheme and to change the format and direction of the Madison Church of Christ.

    The Elders knew that the membership would never approve such a plan. Using the tools of the "Community Church Movement"(consultants, books, seminars, meetings,planters,seeders) they slowly started initiating change so it was never noticed by the members until it was too late.....

    At the heart of the plan was the fact that old members were going to be driven off so new techniques could be used to go out and reach the unchurched through new "Contemporary Holy Entertainment" methods developed by the "Community Church Movement"

    Old members had to be kept on board long enough to get their plans ready, or the funds would not be there to pay for the new building. So by the plans very nature, it had to be secret.

    The church had no plan in effect to renew or approve elders. There was never any need. The elders had always been "as approved by God". 10 of the last 15 elders would begin to shed some doubt on that.

    The Elders did not even need a majority at first, because some of the elders went along unwittingly.

    This edition starts shortly after some of the members begin to smell something strange in January 2001. Later editions may go back and fill in some of the timeline.

    To even start to understand whats happening here, you must read the background materials in the first of the book.

    This is only the first edition, and not the end. New editions will be printed as needed. To keep abreast of current changes, please visit our web site; http://www.concernedmembers.com/madison

    Here is the list of players;

    5 Godly Elders
    10 Not so Godly Elders
    120 "Deacons" (allegiance unknown)
    2,800 - 4,000 church "members"
    2 "teners" (people who have publicly confessed to have broken all ten commandments)
    Unknown number of "sinners" (This is what the 10 elders call us.)
    Unknown number of "demons" (Flying everywhere, to many to count)
