1 | The Jesus formula? | Bible general Archive 2 | JGA216 | 106834 | ||
Hi JCrichton, I was reading through this thread and although this has nothing to do with the topic, I was just curious as to what you mean by "the Jesus formula (70x7)".. I've never heard of it before |

2 | Am I wrong to think this? | Proverbs | JGA216 | 106795 | ||
First of all, I do not mean to offend anyone, I am just curious as to other outlooks on this topic. I am a 20 year old man who Beleives firmly in God and in the Savior Jesus Christ. I pray daily and am doing all that I can to develop a relationship with god. I do not however, attend church on a regular basis. My experience and outlook on the church, has led me to beleive that quite often, the church in my opinion tends to lead people away from a true beleif in God. Too many times in church I've felt like someone else's beleifs are being forced upon me in place of being inspired to develop my own beleifs through the truth of the bible and to find what god truly wants me to do with my life. I've always thought that the church should be a place where you can go to worship God in your own way and a place to go where you can learn through sharing with the experiences and outlooks of others, yet in most churches I've attended, perspectives that don't agree with the pastors are completely shunned on. I guess I only wish that church was a more free enviroment and that I could attend it without feeling like I have to beleive word by word the interpretation of the bible that someone else has instead of developing my own interpretation. What I want to know is does anybody else feel this way, and does it seem wrong to anyone but me to replace doing what you feel god wants with going to church every week and doing what the church says? I welcome all views from either end of the perspective as I am an open mind and want to truly learn from the beleifs of others. |
