Do I Need To Go To Church To Go to Heaven?
First, salvation isn’t something we earn by WORKS. You can ever “work” or do enough “good deeds” to get to heaven. Christ did the work on the cross. You, as a sinner, can never do enough good “deeds” or “acts of obedience” to earn your salvation. It will never happen. Rather, we are saved by God’s grace when we place our faith in Jesus Christ.
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. (Ephesians 2:8-9)
So no, you will not lose your salvation by avoiding church, and you cannot earn your salvation by attending church. I like what one person said: “Going to church won’t make you a Christian any more that being in a garage makes you a car.”
Salvation occurs when you place your total trust and faith in Christ. It doesn’t happen when you recite a prayer, walk down a church isle with tears down your face, or saying a pray when an invitation is given. Salvation occurs when you place your trust and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. Nothing more, nothing less.
When you truly place your faith in trust in Christ, you will be born again, and the Holy Spirit will begin to dwell in your body. He will lead you to truth, teach you obedience, rebuke and cleanse you from sin, give you spiritual gifts, and so forth.

Such christians don't exist...i mean with those attributes you mention because, heb 10:25 says, do not forsake the assembling of the brethen...when you forsake or forsook the assembling of the brethren which is the church, you have sinned already.




Smh, been getting too many mentions from those who lacks simple understanding cos of this my post...for the christians, know y'all that any gathering in the name of jesus is a church, so, stop qouting me wrongly undecided...pray for spirituall understanding..

if you don't go to church means you won't pay your tithes and give offerings. You not giving tithe and offerings means funds meant for the pastor have been diverted somewhere else. This means you haven't fulfilled your financial obligations to the church and God. Which finally means you are destined for hell! angry

The Bible encourage us not to forsake the gathering of ourselves. But many G.Os has turned it to business area to swindled innocents and gullible people. We are being told to work out our own salvation with fear and trembling. God knows who belong to him.

Can one learn a new skill or business without going to school?

Is it everyone who enters church on sunday who'd make heaven?

Answer those questions and you've your answer.

Oga church is not the only "assembling of the brethren". If you're able to assemble with people in your household, with colleagues in your school, in fact now we have social networks sef; a group of Christians on Facebook/WhatsApp etc is a social assembly. When you watch preaching on TV, you are also part of their assembly. If people had these methods in the days of Jesus, they would've utilised them.

The assembly of the brethren doesn't necessarily means church

In my opinion it simply means being around like minded people - iron sharpens iron

All those wailers making noise here don't like attending church and I'm 100% sure they didn't attend today. You have Bible to read or you are allowing the devil to make you lazy? Read Hebrews 10:24-27 And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works:
Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.
For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,
But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.7

Be careful with false doctrines and prophets on these thread!!!!! Happy Sunday everyone and Happy New Month in Advance.

You are born again and u dont go to church, that is error, to born again means to have the life of Christ in you. And d Spirit of God is not a confused Spirit, u can never be born again nd have Christ like life nd be staying at home, A call to salvation is first step for every believer nd den call to work....
