Is there such a thing as an on line Local Church?

Answer 1

Family Worship Center out of Baton Rouge, LA has a media church. People join the church and watch it over the internet.

Answer 2

Quite a few churches have webcasts of their services or MP3 downloads of the services afterward. You might also check out my site at the first link below, and while it isn't a "church" as such, it's developed into a pretty big online community with more than 4,000 people on my site's mailing list.

Answer 3

Probably, but that defeats the purpose of church. Jesus meant for us to fellowship with each other in person. Paul said not to forsake the assembling of yourselves together

I can understand if you are home bound for illness or other reasons, but today too many people go on the Internet and replace it with the real fellowship of real humans in person.

7 years ago I worked with a man who bragged about his spirituality and how he was always worshiping everyday, but he declined to visit my church just one day claiming it was lame and no emotion. which was untrue, but he would stay on line for hours at a time and I asked him if he liked emotionally charged atmosphere how could he not see that the Internet cannot provide that, but only human contact can.

However saying that if a person cannot get out and be in contact with people in person, the internet is a good source.

Answer 4

since you are talking about the net what do you mean about local is in a state next to you , a country , a town or next door to you . there are many to choose from on line its just like looking for one in your home town go to one and if you don't like it go to another one but since you are doing it at home it will be a little faster .

Answer 5
