I just wanna know if you guys actually like going to church... Personally, I hate going to church. I did not come to that realization until last year. I was afraid to admit it or even think it because my family would just chew me out with discussions on how God did this and that...But as I got older, I really started to question alot of things. This is not a thread just to wonder your religion I just wanna know if you like going to church...and... Is it okay to believe in God but not like going to church???  |

I go to church but you don't have to go to church in order to believe in God.
But if you hate going to church, you should really question why you're going there in first place.

Sure it's okay to believe in God and not like going to church. It's not a sin to not go to church either.

Can't stand going too Church. Each Church teaches you differently and or preaches it differently.. Just very pointless IMO. I can believe in God and learn things myself easier than going to a Church. They just make it difficult for me, so no I don't like going at all.
& yeah it's okay too believe in God and not go to Church, I think anyways.. Surely you wouldn't be " Not Allowed " in Heaven just because you didn't go inside of a building & listen to someone talk about the Lord.. I never really understood people like that, the kind of people that think you HAVE to be saved and HAVE to go to Church to enter the doors of Heaven.. It just sounds kinda dumb to me.

I am Jewish, but the only time I go to synagogue of it is a holiday, for example tomorrow is Yom Kippur and I have to go.
I don't enjoy it, but I do believe in God.

I haven't been to church regularly since my primary school days which ended in 2004(Or elementary in America). I only went with the school who would take u sometimes during school hours. I've went to church like 3 times since then with a friend basically just to kill time, I'm not very religious period.

Fortunately, I had parents who allowed me to make my own decisions regarding religion and didn't try to push anything upon me despite pressure from others to get me baptized, confirmed, etc.
I've never been to church service and, quite frankly, I never plan on going to one.
If/when I have children, I will encourage them to have an open mind about everything associated with religion and support their decisions regardless of my own personal beliefs.

If you do believe in God, I think it's kinda silly to think you can ONLY worship him in a building every Sunday morning. You don't need church to believe and worship God.

A Church is actually the people who come together and worship. The buliding has pretty much nothing to do with it. The Church I go to used to worship in a storefront that we purchased, until we raised enough money to buy and actual Church building. I've never actually seen so many people who don't think that going to Church is a key part of being a Christian/believing in God. I do go to Church and I love it. You're never going to like going to Church(or anywhere) so long as it's viewed as a chore. The way I see it, God wakes me up every day, allows me the luxuries that some aren't blessed with, blessed me with a loving wife and a decent roof above my head. The least I can do is devote a couple of hours out of the WEEK to worship him in song, prayer, sermon. |
