and look folks there's nothing wrong with the church following another church right we're all independent churches but there's nothing wrong with the church looking at another church as an example there's churches that i look to as an example but there's churches that look to us as an example as well and there's nothing wrong with that we're to be examples one to another amen now again you don't want to go overboard on that and have this attitude where it's like well they don't hey they don't do this you know at so-and-so baptist church they do it like this shouldn't we do it like that no well so-and-so does it like this well that's so and so church that's so-and-so pastor and this is this church right there's different administrations same spirit different administration because you know we've had that in times past where people they'll pull out this card you know they get corrected on something like some some weird sowning that they're doing or something like that and they're like well brothers pastor so-and-so does this and we do we go like this we go we love pastor so-and-so but this is this church amen and this is not putting any shade on any other pastor any other church that's the way they administrate that church you understand so we you know you could you could go to the extreme on both sides some people would say well it's us four no more you know we're better than any other church no never have that attitude okay now i believe this is the best church of course you know it's the best church for me and my family you know it's a great church but not if the exclusion of other churches also being the best in the eyes of their members as well you know we never want to have this attitude we're the best and that church sucks we're way better than them no that's a childish carnal attitude right nothing wrong with saying that our church is the best in the eyes of our members of course that's why we're here right but you know what the people who go to other churches that's the best church for them as well and every member should have that attitude about their church okay but on the on the on the other side you never want to have this attitude it was just like well you should do things exactly the way faithful word baptist church does it or exactly the way very baptist church does it or exactly the way whatever steadfast baptist church does it because that's an that's an unhealthy extreme as well okay you have to understand that every church has its administration its ordinances its rules and laws that are established by the god-given pastor you understand so appreciate your church and don't try to make it like another church now look i love visiting my friends churches and i always get ideas from them anytime i go visit a church i'm like we're going to start doing this we're going to start doing that anytime i visit verity baptist church i always get an idea and i'm always like you know how do you do this what what is it because it's good to get it why because they're an example and we follow that church you understand
