The difference between the two is very clear but are just ignorant and also a matter of improper understanding of the call.

You don't need to physically gather in a church or wherever to worship God.

Be God-fearing. Be good to people. Don't do to others what you won't like to be done to you.

What a LIFE we LIVE Have you taken note of the CO-INCIDENCE OF LIFE: 1. CHURCH has 6 letters so does MOSQUE. 2. BIBLE has 5 letters so does QURAN. 3. LIFE has 4 letters so does DEAD. 4. HATE has 4 letters, so does LOVE.... 5. ENEMIES has 7, so does FRIENDS. 6. LYING has 5, so does TRUTH. 7. HURT has 4, so does HEAL. 8. NEGATIVE has 8, so does POSITIVE. 9. FAILURE has 7, so does SUCCESS. 10. BELOW has 5, but so does ABOVE. 11. CRY has 3 letters so does JOY. 12. ANGER has 5 so does HAPPY. 13. RIGHT has 5 so does WRONG. 14. RICH has 4 so does POOR. 15. FAIL has 4 so does PASS 16. KNOWLEDGE has 9 so does IGNORANCE. Are they all by Co-incidence? We should Choose wisely, this means LIFE is like a Double-Edged Sword. If u think it is your alarm clock that wake you up every morning, try and put it beside a dead body and you will realise that it is the Grace of God that wakes you up daily. May God bless us all.

Fellow Christians on Nairaland,
If you ask people why they always go to Church, the possible answer will be 'to worship God'. But actually, what does it mean and what does it take to 'worship' God? Is it by being in church to sing and shout during 'worship session'? Anyway, to 'worship God' means to have deep love and reverence(respect & honour) for God. The key words here are love & honour. To love God involves two things: 1. Keeping his commands(John 14:15, 21). 2. Loving our fellow brethrens(1 John 4:20 - 21). Again, Trying to Honour God is futile - He doesn't receive honour from us(John 5:41). We should rather give our honour to men(1Pet 1:7). So do people actually show love and honour to God by singing and shouting in church? Obviously, No. Many church goers sing to God with their lips while their hearts are far away from him. God himself is looking for true worshipers, not church goers(John 4:21-24).
I'm not trying to condemn going to church but The truth is: GOING TO CHURCH IS A LIFELINE WHILE WORSHIPPING GOD IS A LIFESTYLE!

You should be getting thousands of likes but you only got 3. This knowledge you just put out here puts you above all tle useless men of God In this country, doctrine wise.

It says clearly in the bible that we should not forsake the gathering of fellow Christians but it never said we should literarily "go to church", did ît?. It goes without saying that church isn't a physical one goes to. Rather, it's more about how we behave and act especially to our brethren. In this respect, I don't go to church, but I "go to church" daily.

This is true worship, spiritually going to church daily.

Its very difficult to imagine how Africans believed so easily that a man in Isreal died for the whole sins of the world shocked shocked : shocked Jeez. If not for slavery, African would been tied to there traditions. Sold the Bible to them at the same time, exporting them as slaves. grin grin grin


How also did a man a in Saudi Arabia happen to have been very righteous that he happens to have gathered so much followers that believe that there is none like him?


Its just simple logic!

Ask, Why, When, Who, How and What

@op you are jonzing stil. how do u know the heart of those in church that you made yourself judge that they are not worshiping God?
I'm not judging the church goers. It was Jesus that said "They honour me with their lips but their hearts are far away from me" Read Matthew 15: 8

Today, I will switch ON my TV as I always do, and watch cartoons and movies to try create an air of peace and happiness.

So much strife, misery and violence in a religious world, that I ponder what sanity an irreligious society could have offered.

All around me, an adulterous man has just polished his shoes and headed to church. A fraudulent employee has just filled his wallet with cash for offertory - funds embezzled from overstated receipts from the past week.
The choir master has put on his best perfume in the hopes that Mary will return home with him this Sunday afternoon. The pastor has just perfected another strategy of improving the amount of revenue realised from his Sunday business, costs will certainly be borne by the Williams who just had a test tube baby the church has craftily termed a miracle.

We will all wake up on Monday and return to our busy weekly activities, except that only I would have truly rested.

If you keep looking at what others are doing, rather than facing your race, don't you think you could miss your own way?

listen man. violence is part of human nature and isn't because of religion alone. humans always look for a reason to fight each other. even a country without religion will experience violence over resources, food, politics and tribal and ethnicity problem just to mention a few so just accept it that it's human to violent.

Going to church without having a personal relationship with God is just like everything other thing we do in life, like going to work, salon etc. Worship is a lifestyle and not a Sunday issue. Most Christians go to church actually to mark attendance in God's presence and to feel good, like I have done something for God. But the truth is that any church service you attend and leave not desiring to be more like Jesus and with a resolve to please and love him more has just been a social gathering..... and ultimately, you just wasted your time.
