The Gospel according to Church
Everything in the Bible is true, obviously
Christian leaders are (almost) always right
The Church way must be God's way
You're much safer and better off in a Church; the world outside the Church is evil and depraved
Christians are mostly better and more important than non Christians
Women must submit to men in everything
To work for nothing or rely on donations is better and more worthwhile than earning money
Prayer, the Bible, knowing God loves you and Church fellowship solve most problems in time
If you're a Christian, you can't really dislike anyone, especially other Christians
Paying attention to your looks is dangerous and ungodly
Quoting Scripture and using spiritual terminology is a form of godliness
No Christian individual, group or activity can really do much harm
Our core values are power, money, influence, public approval and appearance.
Nothing is ever anyone's fault. No one is to blame for anything.
You must not ignore or reject anyone because through you God may be saving them and without your help they might go to hell.
Divorcees, homosexuals, people of other faiths and atheists are all going to hell anyway so you shouldn't bother speaking to them
If you have sex or even think of it when you aren't married God will kill you.
Feelings are usually evil, coming from the World, the Flesh and the Devil
Failure, sickness or difficulty means you're living in sin, lacking in faith, following the devil, not praying enough or just not trying hard enough.
If you criticise or question any of this it's probably because you're blinded by the devil, headed for hell, mentally ill, living in sin or demon possessed.
