1 | How to convince someone to go to church | Heb 10:25 | crazycatcm | 207242 | ||
Hey im trying to encourage a friend that he should be going to church but he says that its you can't just limit God to sundays and that its not an important need in his life at the moment. But i know that he should be. Hebrews 10:25 says to not stop meeting together so I was hoping to get some feed back about how I could at least present the opinion that its soo good for him. | ||||||
2 | How to convince someone to go to church | Heb 10:25 | Rolff | 207255 | ||
1. Churches are like cars. No one car fits every budget or taste. I prefer cheap imports that get good gas mileage over fancy and plush. 2. If you don't go to church where does one tithe? Tithes and offerings are a clear teaching of scripture. 3. How does one do the ordnances of communion and baptism by yourself? Both are commanded of believers in the New Testament. 4. After salvation in Acts 2 and 20, they met together. Hebrews 10:25 does indicate we will attend. The normal Christian life will want to be with other believers. 5. When you are down and out of luck, God’s people should build you up, put groceries on your doorstep, pray for you, and maybe even give you a tip on a job you hadn’t noticed. 6. On a totally secular level, it is a great place to interface with other business people and trade info and maybe business. I live in California where the housing market is almost entirely dead as I write. I have two wonderful women I am earnestly praying for that they will sell houses. One put a house on the market this week and I am calling it an answer to prayer. Gives me faith, gives her family an income. 7. If you don’t want to be with God’s people on earth, why in the world would you want to be with God’s people in heaven? 8. Don’t give me the gotta go to church thing. I promise you I will be fishing next week: rebellion lives deep in my heart. I go to church because my children and grand-children watch me and I am an example. I go to church to fellowship. I love the live music and enjoy the singing. I enjoy looking at the pretty spirit-filled women interacting with husbands and children. I want to give my pastor encouragement, and my attendance helps. The Holy Spirit bugs me when I stay home and asks why aren’t I in church? These are the reasons I go to church 60 years on. |
