The problem with the OA is the blood oath for brotherhood. Even though it doesn't really take place physically, spiritually it does.(example: when we take communion at church we take the wine representing Jesus' blood and we take the bread representing his flesh)This is a spiritual ceremony confessing we believe. Joining the OA you are committing yourself by ceremonial blood oath that you will uphold the values of the OA. The Bible clearly says you cannot serve two masters.Why have this part of the ceremony in the first place? The Bible says let your Yes be Yes and your no be no. This is all we need to do to commit to something. OA, take out the blood ceremony and just have us say yes we will support what this organization stands for and let that be that. To a lot of Christians, things like this are important to our faith and for those who Question us, get into Gods word and find out the truth yourselves.
