Is there a church that Jesus would approve of?

Answer 1

Good Question!

Yes, any church that preaches and practices the word of God, the Bible.
Whether it is Baptist, Lutheran, Methodist, Church of Christ does not matter, they are man made organizations. What matters to God is whether or not His word is taught, the people believe and live their lives accordingly

Answer 2

All 7 symbolic churches in Revelation 2 and 3 have problems. However, some individuals in them are approved.

At Matthew 25;1-12, Jesus indicates that about half of the Christians who exist will be approved, 5 virgins out of 10.

Answer 3

On the night of His betrayal, Christ prayed for the Church: “Holy Father, keep through your own name those whom You have given Me, that they may be one (as in one mind, not one being), as We are. While I was with them in the world, I kept them in your name.”

In twelve separate places, the New Testament records that the true Church has been kept in the name of the Father—God. Each uses the term “Churches of God.” This is the name of God’s Church!

Christ is the Head of His Church. Yet, His Church is not a physical place but rather a spiritual body composed of many begotten children. Filled with the Holy Spirit, having the name of God, and led by Christ, the Church and its Work exploded after its inception in A.D. 31. (Taken from their website.)

Exploded how? Just look at each of the different churches. They all have some difference in their beliefs. Whether additions, subtractions, or "opinions", they have all in some way changed the true scriptures to fit their own needs and wants (Sunday services being one of the biggest).

The link below is to the Restored Church of God. I am not yet a member of this church, so I can't speak from actual experience. However, their website has postings about a great many things, including these "splinters" from the True Church. I would advise thoroughly looking through the entire site, seeing their teachings and beliefs, and deciding your own path. I will say that this is the only one I have found that teaches straight from the Bible, with none of the "extras" commonly seen elsewhere.

I will start off with the "Here is the Restored Church of God" page so you can see where they came from and what they stand for. You can then go from there to see the rest of their literature and practices.

I hope this will help in your spiritual journey. My own "serious thought" has brought me to the conclusion that they are, indeed, "Christ's true church".

Answer 6

It's really sad that most of the people who are answering your question are GOING TO HELL!!!!!!!!

I don't really know the answer to your question, nor does anyone. If you want to worship Jesus, try out all of the major denominations. You'll know which one fits you best. All of the Christian churches preach from the Bible. That's all you need. It's the handbook for a happy life. I grew up Babtist, but now I will go to any Christian church if invited.

God Bless

Answer 7

No.

In fact he would probably call most of the hierarchy and preachers in Christianity Pharisees and money lenders.

Certainly, the money lenders he threw out of the temple had better manners and were far less conspicious about their wealth than the modern christians.

The proof it how obsessed and legalistic christians have become about the Bible and seem to care nothing about good actions. For example, see how much hate is spread in this section of Yahoo by people claiming to be "good christians".

Jesus would be and is probably disgusted.

Answer 8

i doubt it because there are so many variations of so many beliefs. however, find a church with a doctrine you are comfortable with and live your life as best you can within the teachings of Jesus, believe that he is the son of God and that He died for your sins and rose again, profess Him before others and that is all you need to be concerned with. He will take care of the rest.

Answer 9

This is a hard one to answer. In the bible God found favor with some churchs. You see this in many letters to churchs. He also was upset with some of the churchs for the path they chose.
Todays churchs have many things wrong with them. They earnestly seek money instead of letting god provide for them. They put their faith in themselves instead of God. We have to do this and we have to do that. God is all powerful he doesn't want our help we need his. They bang their chest and declare see what we have done and not what God has done.
All I can say is if there is a church out there earnestly seeking God, proclaim his name and that Jesus Christ is the only way to salvation, who are not asking for money while they are living in expensive homes, driving expensive cars and wearing thousands of dollars of jewelery, then I can see God having favor with them
