Christ Himself is the Church. " If you love me, keep my commandments, carry your cross and follow me ". By the way which of the hundreds of churches singing discordant tunes should one go to? You don't need to go to any church to "Love thy neighbor as yourself ". |

godquality: sis, God has put some in the church, Firstly, Apostles, Prophets, Teachers and Evangelist etc If we say we don't need those listed above, then we are breaking a divine order, and by the way, where do you pay your tithes and offering to, because missionaries would need that sum to reach out to the needy. About shoes or so, if you can't agree with it, wear a cloth that's modest, no one would drive you away, and its not a crime to change your church if you lose satisfaction in one 1 Like |

Hier: There were 7 churches in Revelations of course but I see nowhere that says we must attend any. Better not bring the "do not neglect the gathering of the brethren " thing coz that doesnt necessarily mean that every gathering must be a church |

Muslims are hypocrite. Most Muslims that fast during Ramadan break their fast with cigarette, hemp, tramol, etc. Let your sister stay in the house alone. But she wants Christians do bury her when she is dead. Jehovah's witnesses are like Kala-Kato Muslims. They don't believe in Hadith, Tariqh and Fiqh. |

Our Muslims Brothers & Sisters are not happy. I actually feel very sad for this as a human being. They’re not happy in Gaza They're not happy in Egypt They're not happy in Libya They're not happy in Morocco They're not happy in Iran They're not happy in Iraq They're not happy in Yemen They're not happy in Afghanistan They're not happy in Pakistan They're not happy in Syria They're not happy in Lebanon ************************ Lets Find The reason Why.. So, where are they happy? They're happy in Australia They're happy in England They're happy in France They're happy in Italy They're happy in Germany They're happy in Sweden They're happy in the USA & Canada They're happy in INDIA They're happy in almost every country that is not Islamic! And who do they blame? Not Islam.. Not their leadership.. Not themselves.. THEY BLAME THE COUNTRIES THEY ARE HAPPY IN! And they want to change the countries they're happy in, to be like the countries they came from where they were unhappy. ************************ Buddhists living with Hindus = No Problem Hindus living with Christians = No Problem Christians living with Shintos = No Problem Shintos living with Confucians = No Problem Confusians living with Bahai's = No Problem Bahai's living with Jews = No Problem Jews living with Atheists = No Problem Atheists living with Buddhists = No Problem Buddhists living with Sikhs = No Problem Sikhs living with Hindus = No Problem Hindus living with Bahai's = No Problem Bahai's living with Christians = No Problem Christians living with Jews = No Problem Jews living with Buddhists = No Problem Buddhists living with Shintos = No Problem Shintos living with Atheists = No Problem Atheists living with Confucians = No Problem Confusians living with Hindus = No Problem Now.. Muslims living with Hindus = Problem Muslims living with Buddhists = Problem Muslims living with Christians = Problem Muslims living with Jews = Problem Muslims living with Sikhs = Problem Muslims living with Bahai's = Problem Muslims living with Shintos = Problem Muslims living with Atheists = Problem MUSLIMS LIVING WITH MUSLIMS = BIG PROBLEM. Yet they are saying Islam is a religion of peace. Eg. Izala and shites |

elderhimself: I won't bring that, but lemme first say this, if you are not willing to go far with God, your fellowship in church and outside church won't count. Yea, lemme quote this verse, but before then, if you don't like a church, nothing stops you from going to another, just that, sometimes, deciding which church to go to might be quit difficult. Ephesians 4:11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 4:12 For the perfection of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: 4:13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ: The above verses, speaks about the order God has set in the church, and if we say we don't need the Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Teacher and Pastor to edify us, then we are doing ourselves no good, I would advise you get a spirited church to attend, thanks |

Re: Can You Be A Christian And Not Go To Church? by Hier(m): 11:44am On Jun 25, 2017 |
Lanretijani: Everything you quoted has a scriptural backing, in Rev2 and 3, there were 7 Churches, Paul wrote his letters to churches and elders in churches. Ephesians 5:31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. There is nothing like wives up there, it expressly state it to be wife One person Bible is translated "book", but we can see other reference to the Bible, such as scriptures, scrolls etc About going to church on Sunday, the Bible expect that Christians come together to have communion and joint fellowship, and to my best of knowledge, Sunday happens to be a good day for that, honour the sabbath day, its not about the definition of what day it falls to, cause many Christians would tell you, Sabbath day is o Saturday, so you mean, God would send me to hell because I fixed my day of meeting Him on Tuesday |

no. How can you be a Christian and intentionally refuse to join the gathering of God's people?That is like refusing to go to heaven.The problem is the fake pastors. Simple put,there is only one church.The holy Roman Catholic Church,the rest are Ecclesiastical communities.The Church has seen many different form of Christianity come and go over her 2000yrs of existence. The current fashion came long after she was established, will lose steam and long after they disappear,the Catholic Church will remain.Pentecostalism is just another flame that burns brightly for a time then fizzles away before the undying flame that is the life of the Catholic Church. Let History be your guide. |

Word of God said that Iron sharpeneth iron.Going to church is one thing and having an encounter with the owner of the church is another thing.Even bible says in the book of Hebrews 10:25..Never you forsake the assembly of the brethren.As a christian,Going to Bible believing church with undiluted word of God will build you up as christian. and help you in the heavenly race |
