- With all the online streaming abilities these days, what's the whole point of going to church in person? After all, theoretically, one could do all the same things: read, study, hear a sermon, worship. Why not attend virtually? The scriptures are very clear that the continued fellowship of believers is a crucial part of every Christian's life. It helps us check ourselves if we're falling into sin or false doctrine. By attending in person, others can help you and vice versa. Attending church in person is actually very important to spiritual growth. So in this video, we will explore three very important reasons why Christians should attend church.

Church is not a building. Its having fellowship with each other. God is absolutely good!
Lots of the churches in my area try to be “progressive” and preach unbiblical things
Exactly
It's NOT just fellowship.
God's Word says what's more important..
Exactly 🎉
Exactly why we should go to church
EVEN IF YOU CANNOT GO TO CHURCH TRY TO BE AROUND BELIEVERS, WETHER THAT IS READING THE WORD, WORSHIP, PRAYING
Yup !!
I don't really go to church for a few reasons. a lot of churches nowadays seem to be corrupted or teach false things, I am shy and introverted and don't find much joy in talking to people outside of my family or circle of friends, and also my parents don't go to church anymore for similar reasons. we love and serve God to the best we can but we just cant seem to find a church that is normal and truthful and is not judgemental
Exactly my position and my wife.
I mean, these are believers you're going to spend eternity with
But there's certainly a church out there that teaches the truth.
We should let go of each other because of our weaknesses. You need the church and the church needs you because we are a big family of God with specific roles to play
Hopefully you can find a church that is suitable for you one day 😄
Agreed
Finding a church in my area that is not tainted with progressiveness is difficult
You may need to start a home church.
@@a-a-rondavis9438 It's more than coincidental that I'm reading your comment today; just this afternoon, a street preacher (TH-camr) wrote me that he's part of a church group that meets in people's homes. I rather like the idea of a house church and will try to find one. (I suspect that they're scarce in my well-populated area. By me, it seems that people rely on organizational church bodies; like organizational churches in reidp646's area, those by me tend to be more progressive or, at least, more secularized when it comes to certain things.)
I'm not sure that I have it in me to start a home church; I, at least, will perform a diligent search for an existing one and see what I find. (Living in a highly populated area can be akin to living in a desert; it's hard to find both non-"progressive" churches and house churches.)
There are online bible study groups. You can do zoom on a weekly basis.
The church I really love is unfortunately in a different country. The live stream and so I can watch it live every week. I haven’t found a church near me that I feel at home.
Good for you !!
i have trouble going to church because i am too shy to talk with anyone and just cant pay attention. i hate being in crowded spaces too. i still go bc my parents force me to (i am 12) but when i am forced to go somewhere, i dont like it. same as school.
I was shy and hardly had friends too but now the friends I've made are those I met in church.
Got to pray to God to remove shyness and introversion from you, he took it away from me and im not perfect but God has really improved my social life!, Be brave young sister. and keep praying to the Lord
Hi there! I just wanted for you to know that You are AMAZING and are loved by Jesus, religious or not. Have a GREAT DAY! 😎🙂
“ Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you really know me, you will know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him.””
What if you go to church and it’s hard just to connect with anyone, even when you go to small groups?
I haven't been to church in years, but I kinda feel the same way. Young adults or early 20 somethings that go to church are usually goofballs or just simply don't know enough about their faith to produce a worthwhile conversation, and I don't have time to waste on people that don't interest me. I just have such a unique set of personality traits that make it difficult to be very sociable. Had social circles and friends/acquaintances across different groups of people in high school despite being an introvert, but the adult world is different. I have such a low social battery in the first place, and that means getting annoyed easily at people that don't click with me. I still don't feel a real pull to go to my local church that we've been to off and on for many years.
I have this same issue but I learned recently in a Tony Evans sermon that if you want something then give something to get it back in return. This means putting effort into connecting to someone in the church with the same issue as you in hopes that God sees your service to provide you a support system you can engage with. I've made it my mission to seek to serve others rather than have others serve my needs. I hope this helps and encourages you all. God bless!
I get how you feel. My advice: stop focusing on groups. Start small. Look for people at church who are alone or single. Try to connect with them. Maybe ask them to go to lunch after church or organize a night out for the singles at church.
Another great way to get to know people is through serving. Look for a ministry you're interested in, like greeting people, the nursery, the audio dept. That helped me to get to know people as well. Give it some time and pray to the Lord for guidance. Maybe He has you at that church for a specific reason. If not, ask Him to guide you to the right church. Whatever you do, don't give up un church. Just find the right one.
@@a-a-rondavis9438I’m 20 and I’m also struggling to make friends in church or to even communicate with anyone in church
@@a-a-rondavis9438 you know, you can prop their little faith by fellowshipping with them in church. It'll be you doing the evangelism that Jesus calls us all to do.
I rarely go to church just with my grandparents when they are around but since covid we stopped going and then never went back on Sundays but then are started going to youth group on Wednesdays for 2 years but eventually everyone of the friends I had moved to other church’s and I eventually stopped going I want to eventually start going back to church when I get my license
I am veri antisocial even if i go to church i sociabilizing with no one but yeah its good to see fellow christians and i know we are here for each others mostly
I cant prevent myself to be anti social and i dont like when peoples notice me, i am happy to have a Christian family tho
I am also not so social but I've found the most beautiful of God's people in the church
Know that evil/ugly people are God's people too, by essence of them believing that Christ will forgive them.
It is your choice to simply make the observation that you see some of God's most beautiful people in church. However much that statement is attractive to you, is probably how judgemental you would be to God's people that aren't beautiful.
My question to that church and to your thought (which was likely ingrained by your church) is as to why socializing is an expectation placed upon an anti-social person as opposed to the guys who like socializing? Why are those socializing not reaching out more to those that are not connected or simply don't enjoy socializing?
I ask this because in my time visiting different churches, I was either the one that was antisocial or I was the only one reaching out to those that "don't fit in".
I don't think the church would recognize or accept Jesus when He comes back. I think they would reject a Christ who would forgive even the worst sinners (these "Christians" don't want the worst of sinners to be forgiven). Let us be different, always remembering the how endless the mercy of our Father was demonstrated to be when He sent Jesus to die for us.
Amen 🙏 ❤❤ Thank you Lord😊😊
I’m the one who has to get up and go to church to run the live video for ya’ll to watch at home. Tisk tisk
😂😂
Amen, thank you for your service and sacrifice ~ 😅
God bless you 🔥❤️
I'm an introvert. God made me this way.
And if you believe that Jesus' death and ressurection is enough to forgive you and give you eternal life , you will be in heaven with me.
The people that tell you otherwise (you've got to live a good life, go to church or else) is of the evil one.
Moses was made weak in speech but he had to lead the Israelites out of Egypt.
Deny yourself pick up the cross and follow him. 🤷🏻♂️
@@_LifeThroughLenses_ isn't denying myself denying how God made me 😆
@@shugadaddy4841 oh man 🤦🏻♂️
God gave us physical bodies for a reason. If we were designed to only ever communicate online, then He could've made us that way, but He didn't.
and if we were meant to fly we would have wings......lol!
@@gregatkinson7276 I don't know if this is meant to be mockery, but God decides what He decides
@@JosiahFickingeryou need to stop yapping 🤦♂️
@@JosiahFickingerI found what he said funny..you understand what he’s saying right..y’all need to be chill and stop trying to be so extreme
@@-SonOfGod- You need to think straight, I was not yapping, it was one comment. Plus, this person did not explain themselves so I cannot assume it's funny.
I wish my church actually did want genuine fellowships, a lot of them are hung up on their circle of friends
Going to church is like washing jeans: you could do it, but it's a waste of time and doesn't accomplish anything.
@@anassbutt1550 🤣🤣🤣 lol I learned that lesson so fast
For centuries people say God is coming. Why don't people focus on bring people to Christ and not that?!
Amen🙌
That first clip is meeeee I much prefer church online. But I do like bible study in person!
Me too!
Amen
AMEN INDEED
idk what kind of church you went to, but church to me means that you sing worship song, listen to a sermon, then go home, there's no fellowship at all
Ever been to Sunday school? My church offers 3-4 classes for adults. Of course, we are a small Presbyterian church in the South.
Jesus Christ is king
So good! ❤
The Sunday Mass is amazing
Ew, Catholicism.
@@a-a-rondavis9438 What’s wrong with Catholicism? We are all followers of Christ my brother.
@@thekid6244 Catholicism has DEEP roots in demonic worship. On the contrary, I don't consider myself "Protestant".
The whole basis behind "confession", needing to talk about your sin and business to another man who can't do anything for you, and they justify their "absolving of sins" complex by a verse in the Bible where Jesus was talking to the disciples. Only Jesus Christ needs to hear about your problems and humble yourself so you can give those to Him, and Jesus is the only One to absolve you of your sins, not man.
The Catholics' reverence for Mary is disgusting and it's idol worship. The churches have statues, idols, and images of gods and people that you are told to worship.
The priests are the ones to interpret the Bible, not the actual followers. Just like Mormonism, which is also highly demonic.
The fact that you have to "be perfect" and "not sin" so that you can work your way to Heaven is legalism and religion. It's demonic. We are saved by grace, not works.
I can keep going about how Catholicism is in the pocket of Satan himself, and I will only follow Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior, not a church, and not a human.
@@thekid6244well for starters Catholics removed the real second commandment (don’t worship graven/carved images) and split the tenth in half, they GENUINELY believe the bread and wine of communion are His real body (therefore bringing Him back to the cross when He died once and for all), the pope prays to Mary (as do many), they idolize communion and baptism (while both are incredibly important, you don’t baptize babies because it’s a personal decision to signify being born again), most aren’t born again when Jesus said you HAVE to be born again, a lot of them (and actual Christians) have pictures of the European Jesus (that is incorrect, He was probably brown skin with brown eyes), among other things. It’s unbiblical, denominations don’t matter, just follow the Bible, be born again, get baptized, follow Jesus, repent. That’s it
I dont a chrisitan friends , i dont go to cgurch but i crave for my brothers and sisters but because of false teachings , i planned on reading the bible before going to church . It true , its been hard i stray away from that i crave for my brothers and sisters encouragement and comfort but i dont which church im going to .
Gotta be honest tho i really want to experience youth camp and im already 22 😑. Some summer camp will be a very great experience singing and praising God with all of my brothers and sisters . Just wow .
Dont Give up the answer is always Prayer and telling God the Desires of your heart, the Holy Spirit will help you find away to what your heart desires, you arent alone! Love you brother!
@@Tendedsheeep Thankyou sofor the encouragement , btw im a sister ☺
Amen brother
Church is bride of Christ. If we want to be caught up in coming of Lord Jesus Christ the bride groom , the bride need to get ready . Church is a place of worship that make us ready. ,
We are a family, the body of Christ. Sometimes we might not feel connected but remember connection grows, it doesn't just appear. Even though you don't feel connected after a long time, that doesn't mean you should separate yourself from the body of Christ.
Jesus prayed for unity of His disciples " that they may be one, even as we are one" John 17:11
It may be convenient for you not to go to church but have you thought that you be be depriving others of your gifts and talents. Your time, your charity your presence as a person.
There is so much different with actually going to church and watching frome home, in church the spirit always feels refreshed and renewed and i don't feel that from home
👍
My wife sometimes work on sunday, and we only have one car. So sometimes i am force to stay home
“Churching” is something we should do want to do need to do. Lest our Church become a museum.
Amen🙏🙏Let us all be together in body of christ my fellow brethren🤗🤗✝️✝️⛪⛪⛪🙌🙌Lets us unite and worship and glorify him and give thanks and put our prayers and petition in feet of the lord our God..in name of jesus.. Amen!!!
we dont go to church. we ARE the church. the church is everywhere where two or three are gathered in the name of the Lord Yeshu Hamashiyah. thats all we need
My church lack of people to serve, so every time when I go to church I was defaulted to be helping out to serve. So I will come earlier than everyone to prepare and go later than everyone when I'm cleaning up. There was simply no time to connect with anyone for the duration of the service. After over the years, I felt even more disconnected from god and people of church. I'm am doing my best to connect with people outside of church and worship god by myself. Currently I'm thinking do I still need to go to church when most of the connection and worship is done outside service?
I applaud you for your servitude. Sounds to me that that is not the role you are meant to be in. You said default. I Pray that you find that sweet sot and connect.
Thankyou for your kind reply, currently I moved to another churched where we have can work together and worship together. I also will have certain days off where I can just enjoyed the service without worrying about any tasks@@Justsayingthat
Why can't we go to church our family everyday?
I am 100% Burnt out from Meetings and Committees… for the rest of my life!
I take it that you attend a church with a congregationalist style church government? In Presbyterian, Lutheran, Anglican, and other high-church denominations don't have that. There's usually either a council of elders or a hierarchy of bishops who make decisions for the church.
Hello everyone we are all searching for the truth and I would like to encourage you all to look at that truth because you are going to church every single day all day long you're in church you are the church God is ahead of that church and your body is the kingdom so you want to know you're in church every day don't bother looking for brick-and-mortar okay we are God's representative what you speak what you do your ways of being how you act what you do is your church and we are to be in his Sabbath 7 days a week 24/7 it means to be in his rest in his comfort be blessed and not stressed
Just like you goto work ...goto church it's your job . Pls stop saying why you dnt go...if you dnt go you dnt get paid so why not go and get blesses and bless some else. You can be who you are at church and if you dnt want to give money dnt just go. He is right. Jesus loves you❤
Is the gift of salvation a gift or do we work to receive it? You ought to live right, but if you don't, and yet believe in God who justifies the ungodly, your faith will be counted as righteousness.
I don’t really ask God for blessings ..as I think I’ll be fine either way and you be blessing anyone lest the want to be blessed there is only so much you can do , you can’t force someone to tell you about their struggles be real
What if I never go to church but do good deeds and worship Jesus in my home, will I go to hell? and what if I worship other gods?
Without the support of other believers I think it’s much more difficult to stand strong in the face of temptation.
go and enjoy the modern church apostates then.......
I was wondering if you were supporting keeping the Saturday Sabbath when going to church as God commands ?
Every day is the Lords' day in the New Testament. Why have reverence for God for one day out of the week? How do you know God rested on Sunday or Saturday? Why would it matter anyway? God knows His children work all days of the week. I think He would've known that prior to the Creation of the observable universe.
Because He clearly stated in Genesis that he rested on the 7th day. Ever read a Bible? lol!?@@a-a-rondavis9438
@@a-a-rondavis9438why are you leaning on your own understanding..?
There is no sin in church. There are no people with burdens. There is no encouragement. Or prayer. Why then to go to church?
This was applicable years ago but certainly not anymore. Been to a so called church lately? lol!
Ikr i don’t know what their deal..h that’s easy for the authors of the Bible to Say back then i mean how many denominations and different belief systems and churches and all of that was there to confuse you or mislead you. That’s not very applicable now and it’s a lot more too , the Bible is now complete when that was written the the was not completed and I doubt anyone had any trouble following the law ..plus the law was in their native language so misunderstanding should be rare or easy to solve and the list goes on…then ain’t now
0:10 no you are doing wrong is on Saturday ❤
That's when Jews go to Synagogue
You are right, In Genesis 2: 3 God blesses the 7th day. and sanctified it. Genesis 2 is called the First Sabbath
What would you think; if I asked about the possibility, of genuine vrs. "counterfeit" bibles?
what if all the churches near you that you can go to are churches that weaken the message and do things like celebrate halloween despite its pagan origins?
Galatians 1:8-9 NIV
[8] But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let them be under God’s curse! [9] As we have already said, so now I say again: If anybody is preaching to you a gospel other than what you accepted, let them be under God’s curse!
Pray for the Holy Spirit to Guide you to a church that matches your love for the Lord, and he will answer your prayers, We really forget the power of consistent Prayer! God is waiting right now to help you along your away, we have such a Good God!
I need the encouragement of hypocrites? I don like most people and as an introvert (how I assume God made me) I don't see a point of hanging around people that are going to judge me
We all Sinned and Fallen Short of the Glory of God, The sick go to a hospital, we are all sinners, or people fighting for holiness that need to be healed and restored by God and each other, Pray to Jesus to help you find a good Church and Good friends that will encourage you and be respectful to you! God bless you Brother Love you!
In these terrible times where goodness is superficial it’s better to stay away. I know we’re all sinners. But because we are, getting together can only strengthen sin in us. Think about a band of gangsters.they’re better off away from each other, right?
NO.
Don't go to a church building.
Most fellowship is to be in your business and act like they are without sin ~ I believe in a higher power but all the bible is questionable But no answers
what if you can't get to a church due to not having a car or license and getting their will cost lots of money a month uber lyft
Then don't go, maybe tune in online in the meantime, and when eventually you can practically go, do!
In the time of the New Testament people just met up with their Christian neighbors in homes, so transportation wasn't an issue-the passage they quote shouldn't be treated as some ironclad, universal Command passed down from On High, but rather good, important advice from the Holy Spirit, specifically intended for the recipients of Hebrews, but more often than not applicable to today as well. (And even back then I doubt the author of Hebrews meant that people should go to church even if they're super sick or something.)
@@AllenGrimm1145 also these days you have to be careful what church you go to since some churches are 501c3 and are told by the government what to do some are easy to spot as they support wokeness and BLM and LGBTP
@@holystars I think you've got some facts wrong. There are a number of requirements for a church to qualify as 501(c)(3), but what's preached there simply isn't one of them. Even the *Westboro Baptist Church* is 501(c)(3)!
And for the record, I pretty sure it's possible for Christians to genuinely support BLM and "wokeness"… even if they happen to be wrong about that, I don't see how that goes against the Bible at all. Not every controversy is a religious one.
can u not find a church close to ur home or get a lift with someone else who goes
@@pamelaferguson4359 did find a church close but have no car or lincense to get their and the church don't pick up people as i know of and really no one living where we at can drive even those theirs cars here
Whoa whoa whoa now the Building is still important let’s not get ahead of ourselves, yes we are the church the people but the building is still a very important aspect of that
The perfect church on Earth does not exist and you cannot make the perfect church. If you can prove me wrong and find this church DO NOT JOIN IT!!! If you do you will spoil it.
Lies for the weak. Beacons for the deluded.
