What did Pope Benedict call the fundamental decision of our life?
What did the Pope call the “fundamental decision of our life”? This grace has the power to cleanse us from our sins and to grow in holiness and goodness. Baptism is our first step on our way of the cross. This course, taken by Christ, is our way to perfection.
Do We need Church in order to find God?
If we are the temple, we don’t need church in order to find Him. He’s already everywhere we are. As Christians, we can show our love for God by trying to live as Jesus taught his disciples. This includes having fellowship with other believers; encouraging, serving, and honoring one another; and hearing, reading, and studying the Word of God.
Do you have to go to church to be a Christian?
Anyone who truly connects with God, who grows in relationship with Him will be drawn to invest in Godly community. Those who know and love God, obey His instructions. God tells us to be engaged in the community of His church. The argument that you don’t have to go to church to be a Christian is an argument of immaturity.
Does the Bible say I have to go to church every Sunday?
Doing what the Bible tells us to do doesn’t save us from our sin, and nowhere does the Bible say “attend church diligently every Sunday or you will go to hell .” God calls our hearts to obedience, and the concept of church fulfills all of the instructions the Bible gives us.
What does the Holy Spirit have to do with church?
The Holy Spirit dwells within us. We can—and should—have a relationship with God that extends outside the walls of church, beyond the formal times of praise and worship, and even when we’re not around other believers. The reality is that church can be complicated. And the words “church” and “God” are not interchangeable.
