what church follows God best and Jesus?

Update:

Ive been to jehovah ws 10 years but got out because i am confused with Jesus being archangel Michael and not the word who is God and the blood transfusions and false prophesies. i have been to pentecostals and i couldn't remain there it was very strange to me speaking in tongues and the music very loud. I've been to the adventists and i feel the ten commandments such as the sabbath was for the jews.

Update 2:

. I've been to the baptists and one of the pastors was making fun of the pentecostals which i found very rude and making jokes of weed ?? i really need to find a church i feel lost ever since i left the jehovah witness church and can't find my place..

    I'm sorry you're confused, but this is common after leaving the JW organization. Here's the simplest answer for you. There is no perfect church. God doesn't have one specific church or denomination He works through. It is more about reading His word, knowing Christ as your Lord and Savior, and having a personal relationship with Him more than it is about finding a perfect church.

    A lot of churches, like the JW organization, are corrupt. You are in for some trial and error, but it isn't so bad. Just read and study the Bible, learn it well so you can spot people that take it out of context or make up their own doctrine and if you end up at a church that does this, don't waste your time...just move on. Try a non-denominational church....just be sure to really know what the Bible teaches so you can avoid false churches and pastors. Some Baptist churches are pretty good, or Methodist. Pentecostals take the speaking in tongues thing too far outside what the Bible teaches so I wouldn't go to one of those. I would also avoid Mormons, Scientology, Churches of God...these are all similar to the JWs and have a history of false gospel, false prophecy, etc. All the best in finding a church and praise God that you're out of the org.

    Just as a side note, Jesus is God. I know the JWs believe Jesus is Michael the archangel, but that wouldn't be possible. If Jesus is the Son of God, He has to be God. God doesn't beget an angel, just as a cow doesn't beget a duck. If you are a Son, you are the nature your Father is...just like you are human and so is your dad. Aside from that, it would be impossible for a created being such as an archangel to die and be the Savior of the world. Do a lot of Bible study, minus Watchtower publications, ask God for clarity. He said ask and you shall receive.

    The fact of the matter, NO church follows God now, because the church age is over, because all of the churches are ruled by Satan, because Satan wanted to be like the most high God so God granted Satan, his wish to rule in all of the churches and the world. Satan was bound and chained for 1000 years but the 1000 years is up and now Satan the man of sin is loosed upon the world like a roaring lion, seeking to destroy everything that God Jesus Christ has created from the beginning of the world, because Satan knows that he only has a little season until God Jesus Christ comes back to judge the living and the dead and too destroy the heaven and the earth by fire, the second death, where the heaven and the earth shall be burned up, by the hell fires. Read Revelation 18:4 read Matthew 24:15 read 1 Peter 4:17 Also that is why it is so important to read your bible and pray to God only.

    You're problem is a common problem but has nothing to do with church.

    You're seeking truth and guidance from a church or denomination when God and His word should be your source.

    The reality is that not all Pentecostals are the same, likewise Baptist, Methodist, etc. You cannot judge every or any church on the basis of it's denomination. You should be seeking to find where God wants to use you and being open minded... frankly God doesn't care if you think the music too loud or the people weird, He wants you to serve where He wants you to serve...

    Have this attitude and God will direct you.... have your "it must feel right for me" and you'll never find home.

    That really does depend on the congregants.

    There are some churches with false doctrines that encourage their members to follow their false teachings.

    Other churches may have very sold doctrines but poor teaching.

    Its not up to an organisation to save you, it is your responsibility.

    A church is just a place of fellowship.

    Your Christian walk is something you do every day of your life and it requires constant reflection and the desire to improve.

    My advice is keep trying. You are never going to find a perfect church. If you do don't join it because your imperfection will ruin it! Find a group of people that you like hanging out with and see if there is a study group.

    A good church will help you grow, they will understand thats where you need to be but you may need to be elsewhere in the future to grow more.

    A good church recognises the differences in other Christian gorups and their needs but doesn't mock them although their groups needs are different.

    Any church that centers on the gospel of Jesus and believes in the Trinity.

    I recommend Baptist or United Methodist. stay away from cults like Mormons and Jehovahs witnesses. Also Jesus is not the archangel Michael. Read John 1:1-14 and John 20:28 on your bible.

    Edit: I see you already tried baptist, non denomational churches are great! If you enjoy historic chirstianity:liturgical you could try Lutheran or catholcism.

    Wrong question. It isn't about a church corporate, it is about you, and you following God / Jesus.

    I would say messianic Judaism. In the bible while others christians disbelieve is completely jewish even in the new testament. Jesus never said that he was god

    The church who listens only to God and not to themselves or human leaders who claim to know God better than He knows Himself.

    Every individual who does so, in fact. I don't know all their names. One in particular is Nancy. She's the most humble "church" I've ever encountered.

    That is a matter of opinion! I went to a Catholic seminary, but it had Anglican, and Eastern studies departments. The students all took the same courses, from the same professors. So, the differences are a lot smaller than many suppose. We used to tease the "other"guys in school (all in good fun), but, we learned that we are all much the same.
