Lynda, a question comes to mind: why is it a bad example to not go to something that is bad? I am sure you would agree that not going to bad place, is a good example to the children. If you were to go to the PCUSA, you would be setting a bad example for it would be done in violation to God's Word.

You may want to review the Three Marks of a True Church found in the Belgic Confession, Art. 29 and use them as a guide.

While I wouldn't tell you to stay home if there was any faithful churches within a reasonable driving distance to your home, I would say that you would be ill-advised to go to one which is a false church.

I'm sorry! CRCNA = Christian Reformed Church in North America. Is this a hyper-Calvinist site? I have a hard time accepting that there is only one completely true denomination.

I have to go take some Tylenol. I'll come back later. I didn't finish answering your questions, but I'm in a lot of pain.
