The title is not to be taken as something of stalkerish intention. It is to be taken as following Christ. I went to Sunday church for the first time in forever this morning and I got absolutely nothing out of it. I'm not saying the church was a bad church, I'm simply saying that it just wasn't clicking with me. I am not questioning my faith, I'm just questioning if church is a must have in the Christian faith? I realize that the Holy Bible states that they encourage the mingling of fellow Christians, but if you get nothing out of a church and continue to go for just socializing reasons, is that really what the Bible wants? I mean through the next couple of weeks, I will continue to try out new churches and see if I can find one that fits me and my thoughts. But i still have wonders...?
We ate dinner tonight and after my friends planned on attending night service, but I've never been one to attend night services. I mean I never have before so why would I feel implied to attend tonight? But in my mind I thought that maybe my friends would question my faith for not going to night service. I mean I didn't go to any service for at least two years, but that did not make me any less of a Christian. So, I don't understand the idea that some have that attending church is mandatory. Can you still have your faith and not attend church? Or do some think that you are less Christian for not attending? Just thought I'd share that wonder with you.
And for those of you who find that attending church is a mandatory thing, please comment and explain why. I've found nothing saying that we MUST attend church or we will be forever heathens. And I'm not saying that that is what you think of those who do not attend church, but I'd really like to know what you think. I just feel that I have just as much faith as those who attend church even though I do not make a regular apperance in a church itself. I read my Bible, I pray to God every night before bed, and I know in my heart that I am saved.
So those are the things I wonder.
Just a description and the thoughts of the events that happen on my journey through life. I may not write everyday, but when I do it's something that's crossed my mind as something important to tell everybody.
