Do you let your church tell you what to believe....?

or do you actually go to Gods Word to find out what God tells YOU specifically?

Do we realize that one is "religion", and one is true Christianity?

Which one are you?

    That is good question. I used to not any more.

    I learn to not take it if some thing doesn't sound scriptural.

    The Church is not a building. We are morally wrong for calling it that. The building we worship in is just a building where we worship. The Church is the body of Christ.

    I turn to God's word whenever I need to know something, or I go to God myself. I even take Pastors advice. I don't believe in any religion, I believe in the Truth!

    The sin nature is always there, but I keep it down so that it doesn't effect me! I put my faith in the finished work at the cross, and that is all I need to do! The old covenant is done away with!

    I believe what the =Bible tells me. I go to church to fellowship and hear the pastors sermon, but I always check and give true life and meaning to what is said. We are a Blessed Church as our Pastor is truly in the word but if he ever said anything that was not Biblical I would toss it out as a wind of doctrine but as I said my pastor is a God fearing man.

    Source(s): Bible and staying in the word myself... I personaly believe that religion seperates people

    I just try to work it out for myself. Nobody can *tell* me what to believe, though I'm happy to listen to people's opinions as part of forming my own.

    I don't have a church BTW, so I don't know if that should make a difference.

    Your gods word tells you to kill me for non-believing, will you do it? Or do you only follow the parts that are easy to obey?

    I turn to resources that aren't outdated by approximately 2,000 years to help me find my way in life.
