...then why not come to church and find out for yourself? There are friendly Christian congregations almost everywhere!
Church is not about judging people; it’s about worshipping God and learning to love one another. We all sin, so no one is "better" than anyone else. But by God's amazing love, proven in Jesus' death and resurrection for our sake, anyone can be forgiven, cleansed, and healed.
A church fellowship is also about building strong communities, connecting with neighbors, and making new friends. In addition to regular Saturday or Sunday worship and children's programs, most churches offer extra worship services, Bible-study groups, community service, volunteer opportunities, outreach programs, coffee-and-chat groups, and other activities throughout the week.
Think church isn't for you? Remember, to gain the real treasures--peace, joy, freedom, happiness, fulfillment, and eternal life--we must go where they can be found, and seek them diligently and persistently.
So, my QUESTION is:
Won't you join us in worship this week, and learn the truth for yourself? We’ll be delighted to see you, of course, but most importantly, you’ll be pleasing Someone who already knows and loves you!
This question isn't SPAM, by the way. I don't care which church you choose, and I have no personal interest in your decision. God bless you!
No rude or disrespectful replies, please. Thanks.

Worshiping God is Good. However, the doctrines of Christianity is not what Jesus taught. The Trinity concept and Jesus being God is not what Jesus came to preach.
The Church was founded by Paul and the principles and doctrines follow very much Greek idolism. This was NOT DEFINITELY what JESUS preached !

Church is not a place for worship. Worship is done at home, alone. for no one to see. It is personal, between you and God. It is not a ritual to be performed in a crowd.
Church is for learning God's Word, how to teach and preach. Ir is also a place for developing good associations, but worship is not done there.

the church can't teach u about Christianity, only if u seek God and walk in the spirit of truth can one learn the ways of God. There is so much wrong with there teachings I get pastors depressed with my teachings. And I always seem to have to fight with pastors and then in the end bring the bible to them.

Lovely advertisement, but I was in churches for 20 years, and while they love to spout off these great ads for how wonderful they are.. you failed to mention the backbiting, gossip, cliques, people trying to best each other to get into the "inner circle" et al..
Btw, your question IS in violation of community guidelines. There is no soliciting allowed here and your question is DEFINITELY soliciting.
I have no intention of reporting you, as that's not my style.. but you should be aware of it as Y/A is cracking down on these types of questions.
I am happy to go to my own church.. it's called nature. There, I have all the fellowship I need and none of the gossip, vying for position, looking down on others, et al.. it's just wonderful.

Sorry, I already know the truth about Christianity. That's why I am not a Christian.
I have peace, joy, freedom, happiness, and fulfillment without the hatefulness. Eternal life, if it exists, does not require that I believe as you think I should.

Id rather go to the gang infested area of town than to attend a church service. I was thrown out of the church I used to attend merely for questioning the authenticity of the bible. Its not the house of the lord anyway.....................

I did, found it wasn't for me, in fact I felt none of these "peace, joy, freedom, happiness, fulfillment" while attending, and I felt 100X better after leaving.
