They actually found a new church but noone at the old church knows because noone there cared about them enough to talk to them.

Attending church isn't any situation. happens all the time. Use the Bible. This 12 months we are analyzing the hot testomony. as quickly as we improve a doctrine which you generally by making use of-bypass, merely close your ears. What does no longer be perfect is to rigidity out the Spirit by making use of being contentious. You bounce real into the question of club. If he would not believe in in the doctrine of the church, why connect? I bear in recommendations while i had to connect the Presbyterians, that they had a catechism class. in case you challenged the doctrine, you probably did no longer connect. So i assume somebody who has authority and believes Joseph Smith grow to be a prophet and instructed the certainty may well be embraced on your church or excluded?

Not praying, because it is the spiritual source of communication with the Father which gives us strength for everyday and the trials of everyday. When we do not pray, then we are subjects to the things of the world which are oppressing. The spirit is then quenched and we no longer have that fire to continue in fellowship (church) and doing the work the Lord has called us to do. The importance of prayer for born again Christians is so there may be communication with our Creator God. In that way Christians are edified and empowered to have the ability to resist the spiritual enemies and the world, and continue in ministry.

Dear dsaf d,
i am confused by your question. Most people who have truly received Jesus Christ know Christ thorugh the Bible. And understand that the Bible teaches the importance of church as a place to fellowship with other believers and to grow as a family in Christ. i am not sure where you are getting your assertion from- but most people who are born again do go to church. Those who do not - will have a multitude of reasons and i don't think you can just stereotype or have a universal answer- every individual makes their own decision as to their relationship with God and as to attending church...
kindly,
Nickster

They run out of steam?
In high school during the early 1970s, when the original self-described "Jesus Freaks" first arrived on the scene, quite a few kids got "saved" and were running around bursting with energy, wearing buttons that said ONE WAY! and preaching to everyone.
One by one, they all dropped off except for a very few. I think it's the rush of something new and exciting. Once the gloss begins to dull, the mind seeks other excitement in other areas.

it is merely because they have forgotten how Sovereign and Lordly Jehovah God Almighty really is.
the Heart can be hardened over time, and in this day and age it is hard to keep it soft. some people have just been hurt so much that they've given up. some people think it is too much of a chore and therefor give up.
but those who are truly born again, despite the circumstances and how many times they've fallen away, God chastens them and makes Himself manifest.

Because most born agains are normal people who have been brainwashed, and have woken up.
Born agains are just people who have done stupid crap in their past and then had a weekend where they realized they were mortal and had never given thought to what could lay ahead.
Then, eventually, after attending church and seeing how ridiculous the whole thing is, realize how silly they were acting.

The emotional "lift" of the Pauline Gospel wore off.
They were taught a gospel that Jesus did not teach... so the whole thing didn't help them grow in the light of God... since the Kingdom Gospel was about being in the Light of Life, rather than blood for sin.
The modern gospel is simply not authentic. This resource is the restoration of the original Gospel of Light. "Gospel Enigma" Find it as a free resource here.

I think it's because the ones who aren't born again think you're crazy...also they get spiritually jealous. Also...they don't want any proof of God or any excitement about Jesus. They think of you as a fanatic.Then they drive you out of the church.They say you should "believe" ..but not "really believe". They don't understand why you want to go to church more than on Sunday. In fact...they don't understand why you WANT to go to church.

They think once saved always saved so they don't have to keep the LAW OF GOD anymore because they are saved this is not so God said remember my SABBATH !?! the only commandment with remember cause God knew they would forget :) Jesus wants us to go to church and keep his Sabbaths because its our time to build a relationship with him cause we are busy 6 days of the week so God set aside this day for men .ALL DAYS BELONG TO THE LORD !we should serve him everyday but God knows we are weak and we tend to forget :) so he set aside sabbath and made it holy and it will stand forever it is a day of rest my friends :)
