It's a great question! For myself, it's more a matter of the people in the individual church. When my wife and I have been needing to find a church, we pray for God to guide us, and we start going to churches.With so many, how does one know which one is the correct one to follow?

Hello Meadow, first off, since I see that you are new around this place, welcome to CBWith so many, how does one know which one is the correct one to follow? Serious question here.
Follow?....There is only one to follow; perhaps you are unfamiliar with him? ......known as The Word of God.With so many, how does one know which one is the correct one to follow? Serious question here.
Your question is built on the assumption that only ONE denomination can be the RIGHT one.With so many, how does one know which one is the correct one to follow? Serious question here.
I don't think you should follow a denomination. You should follow Jesus and lead your denomination. I don't think you will find a perfect denomination.With so many, how does one know which one is the correct one to follow? Serious question here.
Precious friend, A Very Warm Welcome to the Board.Study to make sure what the others are teaching for all should only be teaching the oracles of God if not then beware but with the above declaration from Paul it is clear that some are not teaching as God has spoken so we must study the word to find the true teachings of Christ.

Well i went to lots of churches where the people seemed big time friendly and welcoming .It's a great question! For myself, it's more a matter of the people in the individual church. When my wife and I have been needing to find a church, we pray for God to guide us, and we start going to churches.
In my two most recent times of "church shopping", the last time, last year, God just spoke to my wife's heart which we should attend, and it's proven a wonderful place for us to be. The time before, about 15 years ago, He also spoke to my wife's heart which it should be, though I made us try several before I went with her suggestion, which proved to be a wonderful place for us to be.
So maybe this shopping around - my idea - isn't so great after all, maybe just ask my wife?
Much love!
If that be true then why so many warnings of false teaching? One must be following the truth of God's word not some other doctrine which is easy for the earsIf the body of the church were turkey, the first question would be, "Dark meat or white?"
All kidding aside, we are a body of many members and therefore it is completely fine that there are many denomination (even though some do not qualify to be of the body of Christ). As such, indeed, a nose should not gather with a foot, except he bleed.
The search then, is one of locating those of one's own part or kind. Certainly, this is where each will do best to contribute to the overall body of Christ, without which there is otherwise no harmony.
AMEN no truer word of advice AMEN my the people HEAR GOD"S word and not that of man.Well i went to lots of churches where the people seemed big time friendly and welcoming .
But the DOCTRINE STANK to HIGH HEAVEN .
SO i have to say its not really about the people in the church . WELL if by that you meant friendly .
The best and simple answer to the question the writer asked would be ,
DOES THE CHURCH PUT GOD , PUT CHRIST FIRST above all . DO IT teach HIS DOCTRINE .
OR does it pander to humanity and feelings . IF IT DO the latter , RUN FROM IT .
AND NEVER LOOK back , but do try and take as many as are willing to hear WITH YA when your behind exits the door .
WHEN SHOPPING FOR A CHURCH the question should be
ARE THEY KEEPING ALL THINGS JESUS and the apostles taught . ARE THEY TEACHING THAT . IF SO , great ENTER THOU
into it . IF not , start correcting . IF THE LEADERSHIP aint hearing , THEN GET OUT and take anything that breathes WITH YA
on the way OUT . cause if the LEADERSHIP dont BELIEVE in what JESUS and the apostels taught and refuse to repent
THE PEOPLES UNDER THEM STAND NO CHANCE at all . TIME to BIBLE UP .
Not only was and is there many warnigs of false teachings but we also got a SERIOUSIf that be true then why so many warnings of false teaching? One must be following the truth of God's word not some other doctrine which is easy for the ears

Technically none are the correct one to follow, since it is Christ we are to follow, not man-made institutions.With so many, how does one know which one is the correct one to follow? Serious question here.
Honestly? None. Focus on getting your Christianity from Jesus and the disciples through the New Testament. Read the bible in context and try to find a church or fellowship that is following that example. Don't let the churches try to define your Christianity and then read the Bible.With so many, how does one know which one is the correct one to follow? Serious question here.
