Bible Question:
Thank you for providing parts of the article that gives us ways to locate a new church. You have given me much to consider. Does your own church that you attend always, that is always, do as Jesus told us to do or does it make some compromises? Where may a church compromise and under what circumstances? I know that you are very busy but you seem to post many notes. Please, I do not want you to go to any great trouble but if you could recommend a book rather than a web site I would be forever in your debt. God Bless, Jensen |
Bible Answer: Ideally, no. But then, ideally neither should we. No church is perfect. Hopefully they are all striving to be, though. :) I am part of a church that is speeding away from the will of God. I know it. God has shown it to me. And as much as I would like to, I can't get them going straight. But He has led me to this church for purpose. My part is to pray, and to encourage, to lift up the body. And to trust Him to take care of everything else. That is what finding a church is about. Knowing where God needs you and why. There is only one place, or book, to find that answer. Remember though, pastors, priest, preachers, deacons, sunday school teachers, they are all people. Don't lift them up. They are no different than you are me. Listen to them, but never just take their word for it. Get in the bible, see for yourself. Learn to ask God, and to look for an answer. Kelkat |
