The Church is like a copper wire used to conduct electricity, it is a medium that allows for a connection. Just because one has copper wire, does not mean electricity is present. Like wise just because one spent 20+ years in a church means he/she knows God. (or even has experienced God.) One has to be "Plugged in" in order to have that experience.
What precisely is a Biblical Christian?
A Christian who uses the bible to define their faith and their God. (Not some convention, gathering pf leaders, special prophets, living apstoles, man in a funny hat, or any specific form of worship or a given tradition for the sake of traditional worship.) no filter, just an individual's best effort to worship and love the God of the bible with all of their being, whatever that may look like or lead them.
