FAQ
Warsaw International Church’s worshippers are sending in questions they would like to see answers to. If you have questions on matters of faith, Christianity, the Bible etc., feel free to send them to me at pastor@wic.org.pl. I’ll do my best to answer them. However, a small caveat. Ours is an international church with worshippers from many Christian denominations. Our believers will therefore have a different understanding on many issues. So my replies to your queries might represent my own opinions and convictions. There is no hard and fast answer to many questions, and the Bible itself is ambiguous in many places. It’s worth bearing that in mind. - Pastor Harry
