Going to church is not an automatic passport to being an authentic Christian. As far as I'm concerned, it's just a medium used in listening to the word of God, praising and worshiping Him. If he genuinely does that outside the confines of a church, then he is alot better than those who go to church regularly for the wrong reasons. #VoteIvyy #Missnairaland2016 4 Likes |

Yes. As long as you fellowship and worship God with the Body of Jesus Christ with at least one person or two persons. [size=18pt]For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them." ◄ Matthew 18:20 ►[/size] |

No.A christian must go to church no two ways about it.Even Jesus, went to the temple so don't stay at home and think you will ever please God.Try to go to church and worship and praise God that is your duty.Thanks. 1 Like |

It is better than a Christian attending church services and committing all manner of sin. Some even fornicate with themselves in the church, steal offering money. Etc |

Yes. Ask yourself, whether God's presence is only LIMITED to the church? |

If only you know what being a Christian really means, the answer is Yes. |

Yeah sure but a church is the gathering of the body . He is a Christian he just does not gather with the brethren. God still loves him without measure |

The question should be, is there a part in the Bible that said not going to church every Sunday is a sin? 2 Likes |

Going to church is not a perequisite for making heaven but it is a very important part of every true christain. Church is not d building itself but the christains who gather together to seek God's face and hear from him. If going to church was unnecessary d -srealites would not always go to d terbanacle every sabbath day. Infact dere wud be no sabbath day and God wud not tell us to keep it holy. After pentecost, d first christains became a church and always gathered together to pray,praise and hear d word of God from d apostles. No true christain should forsake d assembly of d saints because God's presence is always more available wen two or more re gathered togethre in his name. The bad attitude of today's pastors and churches should not be a hinderance to our coming to church. And no one should tink of himself holier dan anyone or pastor. 3 Likes |

let's be honest here,we are to love God with our heart,soul,mind and strength.If you say you are a christian,yet do not attend church regularly,how can you say that you really love God sufficiently? Jesus emphasized the importance of His church and the bible warns against willful and persistent rejection of God......And remember God intends for you to be on the team----to be a member of His family...Happy sunday!! 1 Like |

It will do a lot of good for clearity sake to understand the etymology of d word church. Is there any part of the scriptures that instruct us to go to church. How do u even go to 'who u are/should be'? Those quoting not forsaking the assembly of the brethren..have already substituted the assembly of d brethren as church. Can that really be? Even our pastors don't say look at ur brother or sister and tell him/her welcome or wateva..they say look at ur neighbour... Just thinking.. 1 Like |

YungMike: If God's family is limited to only church goers, I doubt the concept of God as universal. Don't limit God to church going, that reduces God to pastoral monopoly which is "impossicant". 3 Likes |

Yup.. One can be a christian without going to church.A church is a christian house of worship..now its not a moral code of conduct that you must go to one to be a christian. |
