4 Reasons Christians Need The Church by olamariamjonez(m): 4:20pm On Aug 09, 2020
For quite a while, I felt a similar route about the congregation as I did about the sunroof in my vehicle. I enjoyed church. I even appreciated coming to chapel. Yet, in the same way as other individuals, I accepted the untruth that while church was a pleasant piece of Christianity, it wasn't important to follow Jesus.

1. We need different Christians.

On the off chance that you need to realize what you accept, tune in to what your companions state. The additional time we spend around individuals who deride God, the more we permit their perspectives to influence our considerations and mentalities (Psalm 1:1-2). The additional time we go through with God's kin and in His quality, the more like Jesus we become.

That is the reason the essayist of Hebrews urged Christians not to quit any pretense of getting together. On the off chance that we need to hold unswervingly to our confidence, we have to encircle ourselves with individuals who will urge us to follow Jesus in any event, when it's hard, to have confidence when everything appears to be miserable, and to depend on Jesus in any event, when we want to do everything all alone (Hebrews 10:23-25).

2. We need chances to find our profound blessings.

All of us has an aptitude God needs to use to help other people know Him and tail Him. The Bible calls these abilities otherworldly endowments (1 Corinthians 12), and we find our profound blessings a similar way we find some other sort of exceptional ability.

Kobe Bryant acknowledged he was incredible at ball when he began playing b-ball. Katy Perry found she could sing when she began singing. We will never reveal what God has prepared and called us to do on the off chance that we don't get included.

3. We need authority.

We don't need to think anything anybody enlightens us regarding God. He named people in the congregation to lead us and to show us (Hebrews 13:17). God gave us the Bible and the congregation so we can recognize what's from Him.

Through the congregation's power structure, we can test and see what's of God and what isn't the point at which we can't tell all alone. At the point when we've asked, read the Bible, and still aren't sure what to do, the congregation is the place we go for guidance.

4. We need constantly effortlessness.

Church individuals are not immaculate individuals. We are excused, yet we are still heathens. Regardless of how long we've been following Jesus, we are going to mess up, miss the mark, and sin. Furthermore, when we do, we need a spot where we can come to be recuperated, reestablished, and restored. That spot is the congregation.

The sunroof in my little red Galant demolished me. I can't envision claiming a vehicle without a sunroof until kingdom come. The equivalent is genuine with regards to chapel.

Peter, the apostle, warned people about ALL MOGs (False Prophets and Teachers), from about 2000 years ago.

2 Peter 2 vs 1-7 (ERV)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. In the past there were false prophets among God’s people. It is the same now. You will have some false teachers in your group. They will teach things that are wrong—ideas that will cause people to be lost. And they will teach in a way that will be hard for you to see that they are wrong. They will even refuse to follow the Master who bought their freedom. And so they will quickly destroy themselves.
2. Many people will follow them in the morally wrong things they do. And because of them, others will say bad things about the way of truth we follow.
3. These false teachers only want your money. So they will use you by telling you things that are not true. But the judgment against these false teachers has been ready for a long time. And they will not escape God who will destroy them.

4. When angels sinned, God did not let them go free without punishment. He sent them to hell. He put those angels in caves of darkness, where they are being held until the time when God will judge them.

5. And God punished the evil people who lived long ago. He brought a flood to the world that was full of people who were against God. But he saved Noah and seven other people with him. Noah was a man who told people about living right.

6. God also punished the evil cities of Sodom and Gomorrah. He burned them until there was nothing left but ashes. He used those cities as an example of what will happen to people who are against God.
7. But he saved Lot, a good man who lived there. Lot was greatly troubled by the morally bad lives of those evil people. 8 This good man lived with those evil people every day, and his good heart was hurt by the evil things he saw and heard.
What peter said is indeed what we see happening here and now. Because of the AntiChrists also called MOGs, the world does not view Jesus Christ in a good light at all. You simply mention that you believe in the God of the Bible, and almost immediately you see the detest in their looks... nothing to do with persecution at all. No, they have become wary of those who claim to be Christians. The world is tired of the lies and deceit of MOGs - the hypocrisy that is claimed and justified in the name of God.

These MOGs are the Antichrists as they have set themselves up as Masters over Jesus Christ's flock, pretending to be Teachers in His place.

Their doctrines and traditions are twisted representations of the teachings of Jesus Christ, and in many cases many are deceived and led away from the Truth of Jesus Christ as a result.

They sit themselves in the place of God in the minds of His own sheep and they steal, kill and destroy, for their own pleasure and kingdoms, that which God has planned for those who are His. And they do all of this in the name of God.
MOGs are the false prophets that Jesus Christ warned His followers to beware of. These are the antichrists that the apostles spoke of even during their days.
