Hold on a minute. This passage is not speaking about a ceremony of
footwashing, which is what some Christians do when they sit around in a

We have to go easy on the women, after all, God is against them doing anything in the church but washing floors, right? Mormons and Islam are both pretty much anti-women.

Again, we missed the point due to your brain being washed with Mormonism.
Yes, but what you don't realize is we fight as brothers and sisters in Christ, not as followers of Satan versus followers of Christ. It's just like physical brothers and sisters.

I agree with you I would call it a sacrement but I guess they use the words interchangeably. Apparently years ago it was a real issue between the Free Will Baptists in Tennessee and North Carolina. My church would be considered liberal by many FWB and many of our people are children of parents

I believe footwashing is a sacrament in that I have seen it bring the grace
of Christ to people and affect their relationship with their brothers and

I should have said two CHURCH ordinances. I believe there is salvation by grace through faith plus nothing minus nothing. Church of Christ believes one is saved by baptism and believe one continues to be saved by the Lord's Supper. If you miss the Lord's Supper on Sunday and you die that week, y
In our church we practice footwashing. It is done on an optional basis and
is not considered a requirement for salvation or anything else but is
considered a reminder of the example of humility and service that Christ
taught us. We do it once a year around Easter but some churches do it more
