Many leave the Church for many reasons. But don't quit the Church because of hypocrites, because you will never re-enter a Church again. One must learn to accept and love one another and pray for one another in love. In Church you will find the most hypocrites "ever" look at the Scribes in Jesus' day. But did that keep Jesus away? Never!
If you leave the Church because you are not being fed spiritually that is another story and you should keep looking. |
That is so true and even if you can't find a church you should be able to find a cell group or even a house church where people are more open and friendly so that you can support one another. That is why we are told not to forsake the gathering together.
See also the thread here......What Do You think when You hear the word "CHURCH "
