What is your faith?

Question

If you are Christian, please state which denomination. Also, please indicate how often you attend church and if you are a convert...

Answer 1

I grew up as a Jehovah's Witness, did a lot of research on my own, and am thankfully still a Jehovah's Witness to this day.

I go to the Kingdom Hall on Monday, Wednesday, Sunday. Saturdays I go out in the door to door work.

Very fulfilling!

Answer 2

I am a Christian. Just a Christian. Like those in Acts 2:42-47, I am a member of no denomination, but I am a member of the church that God added me to when I was saved (verse 47), the church that Jesus built (Matt. 16:18), the church that Jesus purchased (Acts 20:28).

I attend worship services at least three times a week with others who are just Christians.

It is possible to be a Christian without ever joining any denomination. The fact that many of the answers to this question say that they are Christians, and then they name a denomination seperately shows this. In fact, most denominations want you to be a Christian BEFORE they accept you as a member of their sect.

So, if you can be only a Christian before, why can't you remain just a Christian, as those did in Acts 2? And, if some of these people who are Christians only never join a denomination, but come together and worship together as instructed in the Bible, without adding any man-made doctrine, will they not continue to be just Christians? If not, why not?

The Bible condemns denominational division (1 Cor. 1:10-13, 4:1-4)! Why not just be a Christian - nothing more, nothing less, nothing else?

Answer 3

I am a Christian. Additionally, I am one of Jehovah’s Witnesses. I attend my five weekly meetings every week: Theocratic Ministry School and Service Meeting on Tuesday evenings (these two meetings help us to become better speakers and more effective in our ministry before going door-to-door). Then on Thursday evenings, I attend the Congregation Book Study, which is when the congregation is broken up into different book study groups (all teaching the same thing, just at different times). Currently, we are studying the Revelation – Its Grand Climax Is At Hand publication. Then, there is the Public Talk and Watchtower Lesson on Sundays that I attend at the Kingdom Hall. Each meeting (except for the Public Talk) gives us ample opportunities to participate and feel apart of the meeting. Then, we go out in Field Service during the weekday or weekend, depending on one’s work or school schedule. Despite our busy scheduling, we are admonished to “keep seeking first the kingdom and its righteousness and all of these other things will be added to you.” (Matthew 6:33)

Additionally, we as Jehovah’s Witnesses view our weekly meetings as essential. Hebrews 10:24, 25 says “And let us consider one another to incite to love and fine works, not forsaking the gathering of ourselves together, as some have the custom, but encouraging one another, and all the more so as YOU behold the day drawing near.” Being at the Kingdom Hall is where we receive our encouragement. It is very hard to receive encouragement if not present at our meetings. Hence, this is where we receive our spiritual food “provided at the right time.” (Matthew 24:45)

I started out in the Organization since the late 1990s because a young man preached to me about living forever and the prospects of such. His message was very effective in reaching my heart. It was much more than just living forever, but more so who will (can) be present there and what I had to do in order to enjoy that provision. I did not belong to any church or anything then. However, I am very happy that I am in the Organization. However, the ironic thing is that the young man who witnesses to me is no longer in the Organization, which hurts. Nevertheless, I enjoy being one of Jehovah’s Witnesses and the fact that I can go to a Kingdom Hall in Bangladesh and be taken care of by the many brothers and sisters there. Certainly, it is pleasant for the brothers and sisters to dwell together in unity. (Psalm 133:1) When I go to sleep, the brothers and sisters across the world have daylight and therefore preach. When it gets dark there, then we preach the good news and I enjoy it very much.

Answer 4

The first question here is to actually define "faith". For me this is belief in the abundance of all substance from the creator not yet seen. In short you can have faith in anything.

Those of understanding, might call this a metaphysical faith. I've attended my church every Sunday(barring sickness) for the last 10 years. I do this not out of a sense of obligation, nor responsibility, but because I enjoy the way I feel during, and at the end of the service when I am leaving.

I actually enjoy it!
