Some of us use these phrases as an excuse to remain where we are and not pursue spiritual maturity.

1. I don't need church : what this actually mean is "I don't need to take the Bible serious.

2. I am a good person: what it's actually mean is "I don't know what sin is "

3. I am not religious, I am spiritual : no, you are not spiritual, you want a god that is okay with your sin.

This is...

But going to church doesn't mean one is godly, good or even spiritual... infact we have some of the worse kind of people in Nigerian churches of today, at some point your spirit gets polluted due to the kind of so called churches we have in Nigeria.

Do you know what it's mean to be with the body's of Christ ? believe me, if half of the Christians decide to abandon church and follow God personal. what will happen to Christianity ?

When you start getting into re-definitions and re-statements of the Truth, you’re no longer in the Truth, you’re an image of the Truth.

If it's about going to church for the preservation of Christianity as a religion then I perfectly understand your point but if your are saying going to church equals holiness then I disagree with you.

You said exactly what I have been saying for long,bro.
The most despicable and wicked people are often found in churches, while many of angels in human form are found outside it.

Going to church doesn't necessarily mean one is holy and righteous.The church is filled today with bisexuals, gays, chronic fornicators, witches wizards, occult members, mermaid spirit agents,liars, backbiters, greedy people, thieves and what have you.
You find them being church leaders, working in various departments of the church, organising church programmes and all that.
Oftentimes the most despicable and wicked people are found in churches while ironically the purest souls and angels in human form are found outside them.

Laziness is a sin. If you are a Christian at home when you should be in the Church and you are not occupied with any essential duty that moment and you are not down with sickness that moment, you are ungodly. Do not decieve yourself. The presence of bad people in the church does not make it right for you to stay away from the Church. There are bad people in your family or kinsmen but you have not disowned your family. You go to school or send your children to school despite the presence of bad or unintelligent people in every school. You have not abandoned your shop or office because there are bad people in the organisation or the marketplace. But you want to abandon the Church because there are bad people in the Church.

2. Jesus said no one is good except God!

3. Jesus didn't create any religion! He was a Jew who prays with his head on the ground!
