what do u say of a person that does not go to church every sunday but yet holy at heart?Does doing to church makes me a good brother or what?

There's more to 'going to church' than many people realize. Missing out on Church fellowship puts one in a position of actually disobeying God's Word:

Heb. 10:25 - Not forsaking our assembly, as some are accustomed: but comforting
one anther, and so much the more as you see the day approaching.'

One may fancy himself or herself quite contented to go on being a 'Christian' without fellowship with a body of believers. However, such an idea falls far short of what God would have us be and do.

going 2 church is very important to be a very good christian

@ telly b,
well, i suppose it depends a bit on the person's view of the word "assembley"

i enjoy church a lot and love the gathering of loads of us for the same reason; worship but i think certain people have turned it into one of those sacred cows that needs to be understood.

i think the "attendance registry" mentality that some people have has now made it inot a spectacle but i guess this will be the same with anything in life.

so with that in mind, and to answer the question of the post; i will say that "attendance" on a weekly basis has no bearing on the person's state of mind. but then again, i personally do not believe that you "become" holy. i believe that you ARE holy as part of the amazing and wonderful part of salvation. i belive we are to BE holy and not see holiness as what we DO or SAY.

then again, i am a little guy in the sticks so please do not let my humble and maybe even misguided view to stop you enjoying your thursday!


Peace!
