Isn't the church suppose to be and reflect the Body of Christ? Christ never left or forsaken anyone so..."whaz up wit dat"? I'd be better off in the streets!!

the minute god tells us to do something we don't want to do
it is really kinda funny
giving up some stinking church family with being fed up and suffering in the flesh trying to make the decisions god is telling you to make
do not allow anything to control you
are you addicted to your church family
am i trying to convict you?
are you looking for a miracle?
are you suffering?
how far above your head do you have to be to know when you are no longer welcome that is time to move on
having a bad day
the devil is happy about that
where are you trying to get to?

Noone is better off on the streets!
Jesus said He didn't come "to bring peace, but a sword."
People misunderstand that. A sword symbolizes "division".
I don't know what your personal circumstance is. Many blame
others when they are in the wrong.
But true Christians will be teaching what Christ taught. And
many will be hanging onto the old, man-made interpretations of
Jesus's teachings. Our own families will indeed call us
Satans childen when we help others to understand the
truth of spiritual things.
Many "believers" have not grasped the REALITY of thier
beliefs.

I am so sorry this happened to you. This would never happen in the church I go to and it shouldn't happen anywhere. You're right the church should be there for you and should be the one place you feel comfortable. Find a new church to try and don't give up on finding a place that is honest and accepting of its people. I know there are churches out there that would welcome you with open arms.

Not sure what you are referring too. But this is what i understand regarding the bible.... If you are doing something that is against the bibles principles or what it says about a type of behavior you are displaying,,, then you would have been given counsel.. eventually through the bibles process you would be/or should be disfellowshiped... but it is not a hateful thing it is meant to help you see your errors and come back in good standing to your congregation.
if you can be a bit more specific maybe i or persons here can give you a better anws.

Not all "churches" follow the teachings of Christ. Jesus said "many will be decieved". Many who "say" they are christian may not be. Follow the teachings of Christ....not the church. Forgive them, for they know not what they do. Rise above mankind and all the weaknesses within and you will be greatly blessed. Search for a true church family who supports you, even in your down times.

I feel you. I've been there and I've seen alot of other people go there too. A new church family could be a solution. But forgiveness and perspective is better. These are just people just like alot of other people. Difference is they keep trying to hold on to Jesus. I suggest you continue to do the same.

Not all churches are the same. There was a time in my life that a church did turn it's back on me. I felt hurt and lost. But I prayed about it and found the right church to go to, and it made all the difference in my life.
