Why Do You Go to Church

[farouk]

That all sounds very judgmental.
I don't think you'd like my church.

“am blessed. I am prosperous. I am successful.” “I am victorious. I am talented. I am creative.” “I am wise. I am healthy. I am in shape.” “I am energetic. I am happy. I am positive.” “I am passionate. I am strong. I am confident.” “I am secure. I am beautiful. I am attractive.” “I am valuable. I am free. I am redeemed.” “I am forgiven. I am anointed. I am accepted.” “I am approved. I am prepared. I am qualified.” “I am motivated. I am focused. I am disciplined.” “I am determined. I am patient. I am kind.” “I am generous. I am excellent. I am equipped.” “I am empowered. I am well able.” “I am a child of the Most High God.”

@Rollo Tamasi Acts 2.42 is a good guide to local church activities....

And yet you display an immodest avatar . . .

Is that better?

I have a prayer group at my house every Thursday morning and I go to a friends house on Thursday evenings for Bible study.
Does that qualify me?

Excellent. Well done, your placability is commendable.

Jas 3:17-18 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy. (18) Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.

So this is for my friends here that have gone to church or currently go to church. Why do you go?

Oh.....we're supposed to go to church?
Oops, my bad.
Maybe I'll go back to one soon.

Never got to see it, but by the sound of it I'd be relieved if it wasn't Marilyn Monroe.

Would post a pic of her over the air conditioning vent, but that would indeed be immodest.

Lakewood Church.

You go to Lakewood? That is one huge church. Those are good things to say. People act like we should tell ourselves the opposite. That church shouldn't teach us these things. It isn't gratifying self over God. If you view yourself less then this, how can you serve God effectively?
