Bible Question: should u stay in a church where u donot feel the spirit? |
Bible Answer: The first thing to do is to check yourself, not the church, for the Holy Spirit's presence. 2 Cor 13:5 Test yourselves to see if you are in the faith; examine yourselves! Or do you not recognize this about yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you--unless indeed you fail the test? Questions to ask yourself: 1:Did God call me to this church and lead me to go here when I first started attending? If so, is he leading me out in the same manner? 2: Am I living an unrepentant life? Am I allowing sin and compromise in my personal life? 3: Am I offended? (at people in the church, the pastor, etc...) -Prov. 18:19 4: Do I have a teachable spirit? 5: Is the Holy Spirit's presence evident on my life? -Gal. 5:22-23; I Cor 13 I am not suggesting the problem is with you, but I would hate to see someone leave a church for the wrong reasons. |
