If you do what is right, is it still neccessary to go to church??
to be honest its good to fellowship. But hey you can do that even at home, with your family or watching christian channels on Sundays.

*LAST SERMON OF HOLY PROPHET MOHAMAD.*

*THIS SERMON WAS DELIVERED ON THE NINTH DAY OF DHUL-HIJJAH 10 AD IN THE URANAH VALLEY OF MOUNT ARRAFAT*

*"O people, lend me an attentive ear, for I know not whether, after this year, I shall ever be amongst you again. Therefore listen to what I am saying to you very carefully and TAKE THESE TO THOSE WHO COULD NOT BE PRESENT HERE TODAY.*

*O people, just as you regard this month, this day, this city as sacred, so regard the life and property of every muslim as a sacred trust. Return the goods entrusted to you to their rightful owners. Hurt no one so that no one may hurt you. Remember that you will indeed meet your lord and that He will indeed reckon your deeds. ALLAH has forbidden you to take usury (interest). Therefore all interst obligation shall henceforth be waived.*

*Beware of Satan, for the safety of your religion. He has lost all hope that he will ever be able to lead you astray in things, so beware of following him in small things.*

*O people, it is true that you have the right with regards to your woman, but they also have rights over you. If they abide by your rights then to them belong the right to be fed and clothed in kindness. Do treat your women well and be kind to them for they are your partners and committed helpers. And it approve, as well as never commit adultery.*

*O people, listen to me in earnest, worship ALLAH, say your five time daily prayers (salat) fast during the month of ramadan, and give your wealth in zakat. Perform Hajj if you can afford to. You know that every muslim is the brother of another muslim. YOU ARE ALL EQUAL.. No body has superiority over another except by piety and good action.*

*Remember, one day you will appear before ALLAH and answer for your deeds. O beware, do not stray from the part of righteousness after I am gone.*

*O people, NO PROPHET OR APOSTLE WILL COME AFTER ME AND NO NEW FAITH WILL BE BORN. Reason well, therefore people, understand my word, which I convey to you. I leave behind me two things, the QURAN and my SUNNAH and if you follow these you will not go astray.*

*All those who listen to me shall pass on my words to others and those to others again, and may the last understand my words better than those who listen to me directly. Be my witness O ALLAH, that I have convyed your message to your people"*

*If you are lucky to recieve this message, pls give it widest publicity*

You are quite a normal and sincere fellow with a sincere mind and spirit.

If Jesus did not go to church as the Bible tells us it can never be a natural instinct to want to go to church.

See how Jesus worship below. Search and join the faithfuls. Bow with those who bow.

Bro I can tell you authoritatively that I live a good life! I don't steal, I don't fornicate, I don't kill or cheat someone, I don't keep malice, I don't backbite etc....I just keep wondering what else do they want to tell me in church when other so called christains don't even have such qualities as I do grin I just give up

Matthew 19:16
And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life?

19:17 And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments

19:18 He saith unto him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness,

19:19 Honour thy father and thy mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

19:20 The young man saith unto him, All these things have I kept from my youth up: what lack I yet?

19:21 Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me.

19:22 But when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful: for he had great possessions.

Moral: your good deeds are not what makes you saved. Follow Jesus Christ with all your heart. Don't compare your life with that of other so called Christians. Salvation is personal.

One thing is left, sell all you have and give the money to the poor.

I went to Church today.

This Sunday was themed Financial Banquet.

The Pastor said if you give God your heart without giving God your pocket, then you're not a born again grin

He also said that the gifts of God are free and the same time, not free grin

He said we should pray to God to give us a lot of money grin

Brother, pls don't loose the war of your flesh.

This is one of the wiles of the devil. He specialises in luring the christians away from the word of God so as to destroy them.

Remeber, the devil has been defeated and does not have power over you, but he can deceive you into destruction, be wise.

When you start missing Church services, your faith starts getting weak.
Faith comes by hearing the Word Of God.
If you are not taught the Word of God in the Church you attend, you can get tired or bored. There's a difference between preaching and teaching. We are supposed to be taught the Word of God in church because there's a lot we(Christians need to know) about who we are. We are powerful, and can do anything.

The devil knows that when we come to the full knowledge of who we are, he's finished, so he will do everything to stop that, be wise.

That voice telling you to stay away from Church Services is from the devil.
The Holy Spirit expressly advised us through Apostle Paul, not to forsake the gathering of the saints, as the manner of some is.

Brother, there is a war.
The war is between the flesh and the Spirit. You're flesh will always not want you to go to Church, but your spirit will. If you allow your flesh dominate your Spirit, you fail. So pls energise your spirit so you can overcome the lust of your flesh.

Hope this my post has helped.

Be an active member. Join a group in your church. Think of new things you can initiate to curb boredom....using yourself as a case study.
If need be, talk to the man in charge.
Re: I'm Just Tired Of Going To Church! Is This Normal? by justsmile(f): 12:42pm On Sep 11, 2016
I read a book that opened my eyes to this scripture; 1 Corinthians 3:6 "I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase."...we Christians have grossly relied on 'Paul and Apollos" who can only plant and water but have neglected the God that gives the increase. No wonder we are frustrated and empty. No matter how much we go to church, listen to pastor, carry pastor's teaching for head, if we don't sit our butt down in His presence (one on one), the only one that has the capacity to give the increase in our soul, and learn of Him....I sorry, we will end up missing it, and mind you, your pastor is not to be blamed, nei
ther the church and not even God... Oh yeah, you are to be blamed.

The HolySpirit is our best bet. Create a personal time with him, and you will never be bored in this race.

PS: this message is also for me.

Any thing GOD give to you is a seed and must be profitable by using it to serve GOD.
BUT IF YOU DONT USE IT TO SERVE GOD , GOD MIGHT COLLECT IT.
GOD WILL NOT COLLECT THIS THINGS AT ONCE, BUT WAIT A WHILE MAY BE YOU WILL REPENT, BUT IF YOU DONT, ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN, BUT I PRAY IT WILL NOT BE TOO LATE.

That's true,going to church would not take you to heaven but the works of your hand,if ur good surpasses ur bad,it's automatic ticket to heaven n vice versa. Rem d scripture says whatever a man sows,he ll reap.

Its good to give cos that's the only way u can receive from God: Give and it shall b given unto u. Offerings accordin to d Bible is meant for priests while tithes are meant for d needy like orphans,beggarswidows,the oppressed,etc. If u r doubting ur church,u can take it to the needy urself. THE MAIN THING THERE IS DON'T STOP GIVING.

It's obvious you aren't compatible with the current church you attend. Look for another there are different churches in Nigeria with different preaching styles and service structure.

It's only natural that you would be bored if the system there doesn't entertain you.
Once you find a compatible Church, you will always be eager to attend.
