Happy Sunday guys,

People now go to church for selfies and videos to post on social media.

Pastors now have make-up artists more like it’s a show.

For the past 4 years I don’t think I’ve gone to church. Not like I’ve lost my religion cos I still totally believe and trust in God. But I’m still asking, am I committing sin?

Exodus 20:8-11. Remember the sabbath day to keep it holy. So going to church on Sunday is important yet not still going to church on Sunday doesn`t make you a sinner.

EgusiSoup:


And your point is? Cos I’ve not understood what you’re saying

My point is this, it is not necessary to attend church on Sunday. You can attend fellowship with other brethrens on other days not necessary on Sunday

How would you say: GOD is your father but you do not go to your father's house?
It is written, .......and JESUS went to the temple as his manner was!
My brother, think!

Yes and No.

Yes, in the sense that "Iron sharpeneth Iron" and "Do not forget the gathering of brethren"...... You are doing your spiritual life, no good, by excepting yourself from fellowshipping with true believer (that's if you indeed attend a bible believing church. Not the one that has a Daddy G.O and his entourage of goons).

No, in the sense that, the Sovereign Creator, after creating the physical world, including your first parent(Adam and Eve), decided to Rest and Sanctified a special day (Called the Seventh day), for worship. Why "God" will choose to rest on that special day, is beyond my tiny mind but He did and today, we call that day "Saturday"... Not "Sunday".

Please, if you're not a student of the Bible and world history, don't exhibit your ignorance through blind argument on the validity of Sunday worship.

First study the account of creation (Genesis 1 and 2. Exodus 20 vs and ask google, who changed the Christian day of worship from Saturday to Sunday.....and where does mortal man get the audacious authority to undo what God had appointed.

Judgesledge:
Why has righteousness not commented, oh I forgot, he's in church now, better be going my self. Not going may not be a sin, but surely will lift up your spirit if your heart is set towards God

Not in today's church bro!
U go dere and see all sorts of scam.

Dtruthspeaker:


For those criticizing, He absolutely made his point known here:

"And since God has left there, they are simply Event Centres and Places of Entertainment or Annoyance whichever plays out!"


"But, you can not do without the Food of The Bible (KJV), that One is Indispensable, For God has Not Separated Himself from His Word, therefore, you will be fine there if you Truly Eat His Words"

"If not, you will Surely Die!"

What is the essence of going to a place that God doesn't abode?

God bless you abundantly

jesusjnr2020:
As long as you're not living a life of sin and still building up yourself spiritually, you're fine.

God bless.

Goodmorning! I find it difficult to go to church this days, mum tried talking to me yet nothing. (my heart do troubles me) what i do is to listen to audio preaching through my phone. Why do i feel disturb?

No, not a sin. Christianity is not a religion but a lifestyle

Akalia:
But did the Bible say that not worshipping with the brethren is a sin. There is a clear difference between condemnation and admonition. The scriptures you quoted are more for the purpose of admonition and not condemnation.

Every form of disobedience is a sin

The church is meant to help your spiritual growth. If you haven't been attending services, there are high probabilities that you would go back to the things of the world. Of course, that's if you had surrendered your life to Christ in the first place

Going to church is a no for me now.

EgusiSoup:


I don’t understand what you’re saying.

Attending church on Sunday is not necessary neither is it a sin

Are you feeling bad for not going to church?

EgusiSoup:


And how has your family seen you? I have been accused of belonging to a cult group for not going to church.

Important thing is minding my business, I do not discourage them.. Sometimes I pray together with them at home, with that alone they 're convinced it's not about cultism

This thread is also a gathering of brethren

femi4:

I agree with you on this but not going to church on Sunday is not a sin, take it or leave it. When we get to heaven someday, Jesus Christ will disabuse your mind of every misconception religion foisted on you.

You committed sin by looking at the boobs?

no he did not sin for his eyes sight something.. as far as u cant close your eyes talking to woman.

Did I say on Sunday? He's not being in church for 4yrs

have not gone to church up to that same years as yours. The reason is that I'm not up lifted in my spirit rather I feel depressed because what I see fashion, entertainment and clique. But I do believe in God and the Bible.

EgusiSoup:


Interesting. What makes you think God has left the church? Can u be more specific. Do u mean Nigerian Church or the church in general?

God does not dwell in tabarnacle build with hand, he dwell inside u and me..

edoairways:

Yes the blood of Jesus Christ was shared for humanity however humanity still live in sin. All this once saved messages has landed many in hell fire

there's nothing wrong with a once saved message if the evangelists preached the gospel the right way. the right way to present the gospel is by "the cross before resurrection."

what we find evangelists preach today is nothing but resurrection message and no room for the message of the cross.

if a Christian encountered Christ and received the power of the holy spirit through the word of the gospel, the person is saved, and Grace will abound; so much so that the holy spirit within him will not allow him to sin. not by power, but by intensifying the love for Christ and for everybody; especially the church. perhaps this is too much to understand, but I also was a student of the likes of Billy Graham, Jimmy Swaggart, Gbile Akanni, Chidi Okoroafor, and many more.

When the pandemic started, did the churches open? Did anyone get condemned to hell fire?

femi4:
Did I say on Sunday? He's not being in church for 4yrs

Does not going to church in 4 years imply that he has not being close to God. Do you think going to church regularly is the only way to be close to God. Your question should rather be "does he even have a relationship with Jesus Christ?".

they have made us believed Christianity is a religion.

What are the things of the world pls?

Read 1 Timothy 3:3-6. Aside from that it is difficult to maintain a spiritual life all alone.

jesusjnr2020:

i always stay indoor till church service is over for that day and won't be comfortable.

ans: yes


Is something wrong with me?

femi4:
It's a sin if you ve not being in church or any spiritual fellowship for that long

Abeg. Una don start

kudinkarfe:
Not going to church is forsaking God's word, remember Hebrew 10:25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the custom is with some; but encouraging one another, and by so much the more as ye see the day drawing near.
Exodus 20:8-11. Remember the sabbath day and keep it holy.

Now, Let me ask you, what if, the gathering isn't a source of encouragement anymore? What if your spirit doesn't move with what is happening at the church?

And, This Sabbath you talk about, how do you keep it holy? What did Jesus say about the Sabbath day?

Pls doesn't misinterpret the scripture to suit your purpose. Thanks

If you can't find salvation at the church you attend pls, leave! IT IS NOT A SIN!
