Believe In The Bible.

No, It only means that you are well informed. Attending church services should be an outward sign of ones devotion to God and desire to fellowship with His people. Does that make sense?

Well the Lord gave us a commandment to Remember the sabbath and to keep it holy. Check it out.

Even after Jesus died the Apostles and disciples even the saducess and pharisees kept the sabbath. The seventh day of the week. Friday sundown to Saturday sundown. The bible does not support the sunday church at all no where in the bible. So if you do not know that you do not know anything about the bible. If your not goint to Holy Convocations on the sabbath you are not doing the will of God but the will of constantine. Becasue God is the Lord ot the sabath not of sunday morning sunrise service.

Exd 20:8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.

Luk 2:27 And he came by the Spirit into the temple: and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him after the custom of the law,

Luk 4:16 And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read.

You cannot learn this thing on your own either.

Ecc 12:9 ¶ And moreover, because the preacher was wise, he still taught the people knowledge; yea, he gave good heed, and sought out, [and] set in order many proverbs

If you are not going to Church, you are demonstrating that you don't know everything about God and Jesus. Jesus established a Church. What is the point of the Jewish people? God relates through a people, the Old Testament story is clear about this. This didn't go away with Jesus, but is rather fullfilled with his Church. It is in the context of the Christian community that we find the deepest relationship with Jesus. If something is keeping you away, then may I suggest you pray about that for God to reveal to you what it is and what you need to do.

you do not have to go to church to believe in Jesus being in the building do not make you love God more than others the church is a place to fellowship and learn with those who believe in the same things as you do and it is also should be a place you learn more about Christ and his love. I believe and trust in God and i work as a nurse and can not make it to church that often but i read the bible and i pray at home because what you have to remember the church is more than a building you are your church and these that see Christ in you will be live.

I met a man 95yoa that was a retired missionary that told me he did not know after 80 years of searching for GOD what his father knew about GOD at 110yoa. I Worship with a church( fellowship of believers) that together have a collective search-time of 1150 years and still look for the most refreshing time in their daily contact with HIM. Then there are 20,000+ disciples in this county that I am expected by HIS SON to communicate with on a given moment,PTL! But the hardest job I face is the 30,000+ youths across the county which do not care about their own afterlife planning! There is NO fire insurance policy for that!!

Well I know my bible well enough to know the meaning Church, and I'm pretty sure that you don't!. Did you know that a Gathering of Devil Worshipers or a meeting of Atheists would both be Churches?. See below if you don't believe me.
the basic meaning of the Greek word ekklesia, usually translated in our Bibles as 'church', is 'gathering' or 'assembly'. It is an ordinary, rather than special religious word, and was used in this way by the New Testament authors (e.g. Acts 19:32; Rom 16:5; 1 Cor 14:19). The overwhelming majority of New Testament references to 'church' thus speak of a particular gathering or assembly of people, whether in Jerusalem or in Prisca and Aquila's house or in heaven around God's throne.

No it may mean you have not found a church that really speaks to you. There are very good bible teaching churches out there with people who are friendly and devoted to the Word....and the spirit of God is alive. But you have to find them! You don't have to go to church to appreciate the bible. But when you find a good church, it's a real treasure.

First of all going to church and believing in the bible are mutually exclusive... therefore your question itself is a nonsequitur. Secondly I'm more than positive you don't even know 1/4 of what there is to know about god and Jesus no matter how much you think you know. Even the most learned people on the subject of Christianity know very little about Jesus, and nobody really knows a thing about god.

no,there are a lot of people that can't go to church because of health,they worship God anyway ,you don't need a pastor to worship or a building,because we are the church, God want us to be with others that believe , it helps to have the fellowship with other people,but if you have a tv,or computer you can get just as much if not more knowledge, and everyday just not on Sunday morning and Wednesdays. I've gotten more understanding that way than i have at church,and I still go to be feed with the group,but mostly I study alone ,faith and a Bible is all you really need but to get a better understanding use what ever you need to get understanding....I have a group if you would like to join:

No it doesn't mean that, I feel I have a deep faith in God, know Him as my Savior and study the Bible but I'm having trouble getting myself to go to church. God bless you!
