if anyone were to actually attend a McLean Bible Church service, you would see that it is a service without the rituals, excessive dogma, etc.; instead, the church is based on a message of developing personal relationships with God. Say all you want about how terrible you think Solomon or the people who attend the church are (because disputing such an unbased opinion is futile,) but if you were ever to see how they lovingly treat and care for children with disabilities, the kind of children most other churches/places of worship would reject, you would change your mind about McLean.

My sister has Autism, and our old church wouldn't even care for her. But McLean is different.

yes they do actually, they file a 503B with the irs

I never understand why people comment on things they know nothing about. Lon preaches from the only truth, God's word.What an absurd comment that he would sell absolution, which is impossible in the first place. Forgiveness comes from God only.
And what does it matter how much money the leaders of any church makes?!! If they work for it and the congregation wants to honor them for their service, it is the church's business. If anything underhanded goes on they are answering to the One who sees all!

Lon Soloman makes like $700,000 a year. It's ridiculous.

False. Not even close - just more false internet rumors you all fall for hook line and sinker.

Bob Dole wishes to point out that Lon Soloman and McLean Bible Church have refused to reveal Lon Soloman's salary.

The budget (publically available every quarterly meeting) has a line item that includes several peoples salaries (including Lon's), insurance, and some other miscellaneous bits - and it still doesn't even total that number.

Been there a few times. Great entertainment, nice people, didn't get hit up for money even once. Lon would make an excellent Fortune 500 CEO. Probably deserves the huge salary he's making. But make no mistake, the church's accomodation of special-needs kids was started as a cover to selfishly provide for Lon's own special-needs kid.

The last Bob Dole checked, the MBC website had an excuse posted for why they refuse to disclose Lon Solomon's salary.
Bob Dole has better things to do than check again.

uhm, im a young student at Mclean and let me tell y'all this. Mclean DOES NOT sucks! so much hatred on this website. Very dissapointing to me and to God.

Just checked, and no, God is not disappointed that people here question why Lon needs to be wealthy to get the message out about how life should be more spiritual and less materialistic. You got your signals crossed. Maybe you accidentally tuned in to the Satan channel?

I love when humans try to tell me what 'God' wants or feels... You really think that's your place?

Another lie. Jill Solomon is 20 years old and can not take advantage of the services of Jill's House. Only disabled children under the age of 18 can go and stay there. Why lie?

The Bible tells you what God wants and expects. Pastors (and priests and reverends and etc) teach the Bible. Some much better than others. Speading the Good News is the charge that Jesus gave to his followers. So I guess the answer is "yes". However, Christians are counciled by Christ not to judge. Many, including me fail in that area. It's not easy being a good Christian but, as Paul wrote, it's about running a good race.

I'll go slow since you're obviously retarded. Think how long Lon has been having the church pay for her care. This goes back more than two years, moron!

Of course, of course, I had forgotten that the Bible is the inerrant word of God, impecably written down by his faithful, and completely sane, prophets...

Now, just as soon as the Christians stop allowing women to speak in church, I'll start taking them seriously. After all, God has spoken (through a book, written by men...).

MBC is full of Hot submisive traditional girls who want to marry and be committed to one man. I was sold on that and have a hot blonde and great marriage. Knock religon all you want but its povided my family a grest blueprint and set of teachings to raise a wonderful famiy and one thay stays togethher.

McLean Bible Church is a great church with something for everyone. Regardless of what people believe alterior motives are for any of what they do, they do many great things for the community at large. Lon Solomon is an excellent teacher of the Word. He explains the Bible well and ties it in to modern day life with the churches trademarked "So What?" question nearly every service. If you are a believer or not want to learn... go and listen. If you are a troll and want to do what trolls do, stay on this website and dispute everything. Lon has always taught, from the bible, that all sin is equal, whether it is homosexuality, telling lies, stealing, etc. Just because people believe he is teaching intolerance does not make it so. He is teaching that things that we are all sinners and can be forgiven for our sins by following Jesus. A practicing homosexual is no more or no less a sinner than anyone else... meaning all of us. All this talk of science is silly also... think of God operates by a different set of rules than we do. Some may say that's impossible but think of God as author of a story. He has creative license with everything because he wills it to be. He created the laws of physics and everything else. I also believe he created a fully mature universe much like page 1 of any book starts with fully mature characters.

"MBC is full of Hot submisive traditional girls who want to marry and be committed to one man."

Once you get married and have a couple kids, she will want a separate bedroom.

The only MBC member I knew told me he didn't shop at the Lotto Korean food market because it "wasn't owned by us." He said he shopped at Giant. Idiot! Giant is owned by the Dutch, who are way more secular than Koreans. That's probably about the level of critical reasoning you can expect for people who go there and pay that charlatan's huge salary. Organized religion is for fools.

I've been to MBC several times. The music sounds professional, the service is also quite professional--they have communion and the offering down pat. As far as I can see from the nosebleed seats, Solomon is usually not even on stage until they call him from his green room to do his spiel. But his good-hearted, trusting volunteers man all sorts of helpful programs, so if you want to socialize with people who are hoping to do the right thing, this church is a nice start.

(I also recommend McLean Baptist. I'm not a baptist but if they have the same pastor they had 15 years ago, he was a well-educated man who did not talk down to his audience. He knew his bible but he admitted he was interpreting it, and did not say it was correct and truthful down to the very last word, as the rest of them often do.)

That said, I have never been impressed with Lon Solomon's 20 minute sermons. Every one of them mentions his partying, Jewish past. Who f'ing cares? It's not like God took a poor boy from the slums who had an abusive family and raised him up. This was a well-to-do party boy who sold drugs to make even more money. As much as any of us is the same 20 years after college, he is basically the same person he was before, rubbing elbows with the rich and powerful. His metanoia is no miracle and he doesn't need to keep bringing it up.

Apparently he has star power, charisma, and that is why his lieutenants stay with him.

I think if you take the above verses in Mark a little further and in total context you'll see that the 'rich young ruler' trusted in his riches far more than whatever Jesus was to ask of him... THAT is what caused Jesus to tell his disciples the aforementioned verse. In fact, further in Mark 10 Jesus tells the disciples that if a person is willing to give for the sake of the gospel (like Jesus asked of the rich young ruler) then that person will be rewarded back tremendously multiplied IN THIS LIFETIME whatever he gave... AND the promise of everlasting life.

Doesn't sound like Jesus (or our Father) has a big issue with a person having financial resources to me.

Plus, if you think this out a bit and take that group of verses you listed just by themselves, then ask yourself how did Old Testament icons like Abraham, Joseph, Jacob, Isaac, Joshua, David or the richest of all (Solomon) ever make it into heaven? All of them were blessed tremendously in material goods, in cattle, in lands or in outright money/physical wealth...

the question you should be asking is why would our God bless all of these men (and many others thruout the Bible) with material gain if he viewed it as a negative?

As long as money doesn't have you and you don't place your trust in it above God, I cannot see where it is an issue to Him. I don't believe God ever had an issue with a man that had wealth that placed Him above his own personal wealth.

Check out Deut 8:18.

You Are Worthy, by Eddie James, arranged/orchestrated by Bradley Knight. Performed by the McLean Bible Church Worship Group (David Sheets, director) and Orchestra (Ben Roundtree, director) on Sunday, September 11, 2011. Video directed by Ken Wortendyke.

JESUS WEEPS EVERY TIME YOU HIT CAPS LOCK. NOT A SERMON JUST A THOUGHT.

Too many caps, no paragraphs , bad spelling and punctuation.

Doesn't Jesus want his flock to appear just a little educated?

No, he has never done anything illegal. He's great. But don't get involved with some of the people, especially the women. You may be stalked for the remainder of your natural life.

I got jerked off at MBC once, but I was never a "member"

Yea went on an outing with them one sunday (Mt. Biking) - it was business networking pure and simple. No God, no kindness just listening to several blowhard jackasses brag how great they were at lobbying.

It's impossible for any man or woman to know if any in the flock or clergy at Mclean Bible church are going to heaven. My experience there tells me that a great many are not. The arrogance and self rightiousness I've experienced there has not been rivaled at any other church I've attended. Most people there sadly don't truly understand salvation, because they rely on the preaching of Lon Soloman. I have been to church service there about 5 times and each time I've heard this preacher say "we at Mclean Bible Church don't believe that the 9 spiritual gifts are in effect today". That directly contradicts the Bible. He does preach a great deal of truth from the bible, but as soon as ads to or subtracts from the holy word the whole message has been soiled. I recommend Jimmy Swaggert on SBN 24/7 network where you will learn the true message of the cross and begin to walk in victory like nothing you've ever known. Also you liberals could stay green by not burning gas going to church. Amen

I do not believe in following an organized religion. I believe in following the Bible. Many of us have been led astray by the "evangelicals" and those who claim to know things only God knows.

The Bible is divinely inspired. I'd follow its words long before I'd follow a minister, regardless of how inspiring he is.

Kind of somewhere in between. I don't purport to know everything about God or His ways. I believe that His commandments are pretty straightforward.

Does anyone want to join a men's support group at MBC? We meet every Sunday after late mass.

I recommend not paying these churches a dime. Everytime a hear about some jackass preacher living in a 10,000 square foot home it makes my skin crawl.

"Mass"? LOL

McLean Bible is a business networking group - period. I attended a fellowship outing once and it was nothing more than a bunch of business blow-hards hawking their services.

MBC is one golf course away from being a country club.

Is this one of the churches that believes the universe is only 6,000 years old?

The Bible does not state how old the earth is. I have never heard Lon say how old he thinks the earth is. He is in the middle of a series on Genesis and he never mentioned the age of the earth. He just did a killer sermon on homosexuality a couple of weeks ago. I recommend it....

You recommend homosexuality? How about Lon, is he for or against it?

Non believers will point fingers and criticize that which they do not understand.

Some believers will point fingers and criticize out of jealousy or resentment (which is btw, is against everything the Bible teaches). There is also a common believe that ministers are supposed to live forever in poverty. Most ministers live modestly and lead small congregations. However, if an exceptional minister carries an exceptional message and is able to bring many, many people to God, then God may choose to bless them.

When God chooses to bless a ministry with success, what kind of person is so arrogant that they think they have a right to question it? If there is evil or wrongdoing attached to it, God will sort it out in His time.

Don't like their doctrine? Then don't go there. Their doctrine is based on the Bible and it doesn't change to fit the current trends or fads. It is a religion based on the teachings of its founder...God. Mere humans do not have the right to change it or decide it's not in style any more.

I don't understand why anyone would want to belong to a church that is larger than many airports I've been to.

I don't attend MBC but they were the venue where someone we know who overstayed her visa and therefore was here illegally ended up meeting an American who married her and thereby took care of her illegal status. They are still married after five years.

So some good does come out of this church. You guys should stop knocking the church.

Lon Solomon is a saintly person who is leading this church. He has done so much for the community and those in need.

His work for special needs children is remarkable.

I did not say he was a saint ..... I said he was a saintly person. A big difference.

He is Jews for Jesus guy being Jewish and taking all the Christian Yentas for a ride and making all feel good. Cashing in on the "good News". He is a snake oil salesman at best.

No, he believes the only way to salvation is through Jesus.

Jesus isn't real, dummies.

The Invisible Pink Unicorn is real...bless her holy hooves.

If you really believed that salvation was only possible through Jesus Christ, would you not be wanting to make everyone aware of this? It is all that Lon is doing and he does it at personal sacrifice.

What more can one ask of anyone?

Sure, if I were a narcissistic, meglomaniac, I probably would too.

Personal sacrifice? Please. Really? Like any self-righteous, religious nutjob, he's doing it for personal gain.

Ah, the old Argumentum ad Hominem, combined with a strawman and positive conclusions based on negative premises. And all wrapped up in opinion stated as fact. Your post is a logic teacher's dream of emotional illogic. Thanks

But what about Adam and Eve? Did they ride upon the dinosaurs?

Since this is the first time I have been on this site, I hope I am responding to the correct person. But after reading some of these posts, I felt compelled to answer some concerns. I am not a pastor or a staff member of McLean Bible Church, I am simply an attendee, and have been, for about 25 years. Since I am an attendee you might think I am "one of them" so you might not get the answer you want, but I hope as you read what I have to say, you will feel my heart is one of sincere concern.

Let me say that I am sorry for any feelings of rejection or isolation or prejudice you may feel about McLean Bible Church. It honestly does not want to give off that impression. It is a bible believing church and one where we all know and feel we are all sinners and are working on trying to live better lives in actions, words and deeds. But we can fall short. We are human.

I can tell you that McLean bible church is very dedicated to the children who attend here. If you were not able to place your child in a children's bible study half way through class, there probably is a good reason. However, We also have a " quiet room" on both sides of the sanctuary for folks with children that are more verbal during sermons. But please do not let one experience keep you from returning.

Now while MBC is such a large church, it does encourage everyone to join small group. Quite frankly, getting to know people and growing there can only be done through small community groups. And believe me, there are plenty available throughout the area. Wash, MD and VA. So I encourage you to give us another shot. We really are just regular humans beings trying to learn the bible, trying to get to know Jesus and Do the best we can.

My response to all the whining about whatever Lon Solomon's salary happens to be, and any other spurious complaint is as follows:

SO WHAT?!?!?!

If his salary is one million dollars a year, I think it should be five times that, at least. His preaching, and teaching, is worth its weight in pure gold!

There are well known, televangelists, and other heretics, preaching false Gospels, who make a whole lot more!

That's all.

It scares me people like you are moving around among us, voting, holding jobs, being respected as adults. You're ignorant. So ignorant you cannot even grasp the vastness of your ignorance.

We are regular members of McLean Bible Church since 2005. We don't worship Lon, we worship Jesus Christ as our Lord and savior. Why does it bother people if we go to McLean Bible Church? If Lon is receiving that much, why does it bother anybody? You did not contribute any? It is our business how much we pay for our pastor! It is our money not yours? If our church is growing it means something?

You underground losers are just jealous of my fabulous life. The two months vacation I get every year is about what some of you losers get in 8 years, LOL

We won't talk about income, sshhh That is a secret.

This is why you should go to synagogue goyim

kkk

No it's not. Become a member if knowing Lon's income is that important to you. He doesn't get paid as much as some of you haters think.

Actually since Lon is Jewish ought he not keep the Sabbath?
The traditional day of worship set forth by Ha Shem?

The fact that he found Jesus the Messiah shouldn't have changed his position on the Sabbath or the High Holy Days.
Unfortunately Christianity missed the boat on this. Yes One can worship any day of the week, but why ignore the scriptures? The 7th day G-d rested from all his work and set that day apart as HOLY, a day of rest wherein His People should hold a sacred assembly.

Yes we Goyim can go to a synagogue, but the traditional synagogues can't get behond Isaiah 53 or basically pinpoint Jesus' isdentity.

The man Jesus did not decide to pretend he was God or "become" God.
If you want to be intellectually honest about things. would you really want to tell God that HE cannot come into the world as a baby and live as a man?

I'm not going to tell God he can't or didn't do that!

The synagogue is nice, but it is incomplete without the full understanding of the Identity of Jesus (Yeshua) the Messiah who is both God and man.

Goldstein, have you ever visited a Messianic Synagogue? You might be surprised at what you find.

End Rant.

Not to mention Lon Solomon and his tax evasion. As if his sexual assaults weren't enough.

I don't doubt it, but do you have a source for this?

Tell me about it. Lon Solomon has a very profitable scam going.

Lon is pretty much a good guy ("a mensch"). I just take issue with him preaching a Sunday day of holy convocation and not the traditional (correct) day which is the 7th day.

Sounds like you were molested by Lon as well. It also sounds like you might still attend the church?

Newsflash - God doesn't give a shit about what day of week Lon does his thing. Nor does he insist you walk on Saturdays, avoid pork, or observe any of the other moronic man-made bogus rules that some dickhead invented and claimed came from God.

P.S. I know all this because he told me in a vision a couple years ago.

Looks like Lon Solomon is stepping down soon:

Thats old news

I only know old ass news

Lon's a great entertainer. Time for him to sit back and enjoy the millions of dollars he's earned.

I wonder if the church is reducing Lons salary now that he is voluntarily taking a backseat in the church?

No. He should be getting a raise considering he is the reason the church is the way it is!
