So they think that the only thing God wants is your Money.That is a lie.HOSEA 6 V 6 W God says what I want from you is plain and simple.I want your constant love not your animal sacrifices. I would rather have people know Me than have them burn offerings to me.

Churches are no more God than supermarkets are food. It's the merchandise inside that is worth, or not worth, going for.

hello everyone, I don't go to church, but I don't have anything against people who do. Yes church can be good for alot of people. I used to go to church with my grandma all the time when i was younger, but I don't no more, cause some churches can be false religion. I will say again that i am more spritual than religion. Church is where people get together and talk among themselves and have gatherings. But no one needs to go to church to be saved. God is love, God is everywhere, God is a just God. I worship God where ever I may be. That is my belief. I am not Knocking anybody's beliefs. I Love everybody and so does God. God Bless everyone.

Ok look at it like this. There have been studies and tests done to confirm the existence and the presence of what people refer to as han or chi etc. Now if you take a thousand people all focused on one thing or "praying" as they say then all that combined mental energy might accomplish what was thought to be impossible. Many can accomplish what one can not. If large groups of people can indeed influence things through collective thought and forms of meditation then this could explain the apparent miracles of god and create a following. Also if this is true then does god become real through the pure desire and thought of man??? So many people of different cultures pray to some sort of god, could this common thought on its own manifest into a real being? So in a way yes church is or at least could be God.

We are the Church of God, Our Bodies House The Holy Spirit when we accept Jesus Christ into our lives. A Church is for fellowship, Worship, learning and sharing.
When Jesus Christ went to the cross, and said "It is Finished" the veil to the tabernacle was ripped from Top to Bottom, signifying we didn't have to be seperated from God anymore, Jesus was the Way now, no one could go behind this veil, but the high priest, but now, we can Talk to God through Jesus Christ, no more sacrifices, The Temple became us, that now could house The Holy Spirit.
Jesus once said " If you destroy this tabernacle down, It can be restored in three days" they were thinking about the tabernacle. and of coarse they were thinking with the human mind, yeah right. But Jesus was talking about Himself, If they destroyed Jesus in three days, The tabernacle would be restored.
Jesus went to the cross and came back in three days.
Too many people think with only limited vision, but when they have faith and believe they will have spiritual vision and will see.

in the 1st century, there became into basically one Church that met in the a number of cities in distinctive countries yet nonetheless all portion of a similar Church, no longer those varieties of distinctive varieties. And beforehand each and everything, the Church lived because it became into meant to and grew severely. progressively, categories of issues crept in: persecution, fake teachings, immorality and so on. Then the Church merely have been given greater beneficial and greater beneficial far from the way it became into meant to be. while God comes returned and restores each and everything, the Church will on that day be proper in the sense of not greater fake teachings, not greater immorality or hypocrisy, and so on. that's an afternoon i anticipate. and that i do have faith people who're God's followers might desire to humble themselves beforehand Him and worship Him as He says no longer as how people verify He could be worshipped.

A church is no more than a building sanctified for the worship to God, where people gather and worship Him.
The real church is us, we are the church , that Jesus is coming for.

Churches no longer have any authority, this can be proven in the New Testament. God is no longer saving people there, only through personal communion. Now a days church is more like a social gathering. Priest, pastors, ministers can not save or redeem, only God can.

I think I can worship God in my living room more easily than I could with a bunch of hypocrites in church judging me (hence why I haven't been to church since I was 16.... I'm 20 now).

Church is a physical address not God. Churches are not Gods. If churches were Gods they would look like hookers in my town there is a different type of church on every corner.
