What does my Christian church teach?

I don't know what each specific church teaches. I have a general idea what conservative prosperity gospel evangelical Christianity teaches.

Common points of emphasis:

Salvation through grace, as a free gift exclusively through a personal relationship with Jesus. Material blessings reflect  faith. Charity begins at home. Also, Jesus did not come to bring peace.

How far off were my guesses?

I belong to a small, fairly old school Bible-focused non-denominational church.

Define “Bible-focused.”

They dispense with all the bullshit and focus on the Bible.

Probably every church claims that. Do they believe in Evolution? Do they espouse the death sentence for working on the sabbath? Stoning for planting two different crops side by side? What parts of the Bible do they focus on? That’s the funny thing about the Bible. You can get about anything you want out of it.

I’m assuming I’m the atheist? Who is the Buddhist? I was raised in a devout Catholic family and attended six years of Catholic schooling

4% is not a compelling figure.

4% of all unauthorized migrants. 40% of farm workers.

The impact of Trump is being felt already.  The orange crop in part of California is apparently threatened..
