Church in retrospect

[TallMan]

I found that "main-stream christianity" presented a dead Christ on a cross and commanded me to believe he in him. They talked about him and offered possible meanings for his words, but after a few years, it all became deja vu, really it was just a club for nice, well-meaning people . . . better than nothing but different to the New Testament.Does anyone have a similar view?

Most of America's churches just tell the people to attend church, and give them their 10% earnings. Very few churches focus on really making making missionaries/evangelists with the Holy Spirit in them.If I were to have a church, it would be like a baptist church (serious and respectful). But I will also focus on the Holy Spirit. Above all, I would preach gospel and Christ. America really needs the fear of the Lord in them.

One other thing. Church really should be a place where people look forward to going, and a place where they wouldn't want to leave.

Yep. Who needs a church when the Body of Believers are the Church?JagLovest thou in Christ Yahshua, Lord and Saviour of the world.

I need a church or whatever you want to call it. If the church is too harsh word, use a swear word if that's suits you better- anyway fellowshipping with other christians. Nobody forces you to give money, do they really come and rob you, it's between you and God. Don't give money if you find it wrong. Who cares.
