Answer 2

God is always by your side,you can have a grate relationship with God without going to Church.Being a good and happy/caring person is all that matters to God in the end.

Answer 3

Each of us are given a gift. That gift is to be used to encourage the church. If you are not in a church ,then your gift is not being used. Many gift are out of the church today. Causing the body of Christ not to function as it should. Please find a Church ,just to see how God can use you.
You will be blessed, it will be like going home.
God be with you ,as you seek Him and His will in your life.

Answer 4

This is not meant to put down,but to teach.
I used to be and think the same as you on this matter.
You say that you believe in God, you do well,but the devil also believes and trembles.
The difference here is,the devil won't bow down,obey,nor worship God.To obey God we
must first learn what God asks us to do.He
says never to fail to assemble in his house on the first day of the week.Sunday! This is a good
start,but read on in his word to grow in grace and knowledge.May God bless!

Answer 5

It is difficult for some people to attend church, especially if you are shy. I would just pray and ask God to give you a burning desire to attend. You will see it happen. Make sure that you pray and have Him show you the church you need to attend. I go to a church that is so much fun, everything that I am looking for and need. He will help you, just ask.

Answer 6

Colossians 2:16
Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days:

There is a lot to be gained by going to church. There is also more to faith than just believing.
James 2
19 Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble.
20But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?

Answer 7

I am a Christian as well. I don't like going to church either. Fellowship is fun sometimes, but honestly, people are so messed up with beliefs and so far from preaching the Bible, that I just don't like to hear what they have to say. I go to church on ocassion, I used to go every Sunday til I turned 19 (I'm 21 now), and it's like I've heard everything they have to say.

Answer 8

fellowship is a key component to the growth and care of the
church...

so i would make a serious attempt to make at least MOST
services if i were you...

start off with 1 service a month..then 2 a month...then 3 a month
etc....

Answer 9

I atleast try going every Sunday. I don't make it every Sunday. You're not bad,as long as you ask the Lord Jesus Christ to forgive you. Also you can watch church shows on tv. And always keep a spare Bible in the house!

Answer 10

If you don't like church, then what will you do for eternity in heaven?

Hbr 10:25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some [is]; but exhorting [one another]: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.

Answer 11

Hebrews 10:25 , how will you be fed his word and serve him ? Give God you tithes Malachi 3:8 , support missions , help others, .witness
