Church Question

(1/3) > >>

ciy:
Just curious what do you answer when you are speaking to someone and they ask "What church do you attend?" 

You say, "I do not."

They ask, "Oh really.  Why do you not go to church?"

Just curious to some your answers.

Depends on how you define church.

As in a Building or meeting together in Spirit

For example:- this forum of like- minded people is Church for many.

Theres you and the Spirit In You which makes Two. ;D ;D

Mat 18:20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.

That is a tuff one!!

Usually, I just say the name of the church I used to go to.  I know but if you are yakking to an old acquaintance in the grocery line you just can't get into anything.  I still want them to know I am a believer.

If there is time and the listener is truly listening, I will start with UR beliefs.  (Tithing & Hell invoke strong reaction from people!)  I will mention Ray's website if they truly want more.  In my little world, too many say "OH" and don't want to know more.

What I do know is that I need to memorize scripture and not just remember things.  I get all bogged down or tangled up when trying to discuss this with family.

I tell people that I don't believe the things the churches in my area teach and that I found a church on the internet that I attend everyday.

That's a great answer!  :D

I'll have to remember that one.
