Ok I've been travelling around to different churches and many of the churches have been too all have the same similarity process. There are 2 particular churches I went to that feels completely different to other churches!
First of all the first church I went too that made me want to stay
*everyone talks to each other about anything for 15min
*song praise
*we pray for being in church that day (today)
*everyone greets all their neighbour and talks to each other
*sermon time
*prayer
*breaking of the bread (every week)
*tiding/money offering
*information misc
*closing song
*people talk and other leaves.
Now for the second church I went to that a friend was recommending me.
*few people talk together while others keep quiet
*song praise
*prayer
*testimony from anyone about their experience in the past week
*song praise
*little teaching and little sermon
*prayer or not, but if not then song praise.
*closing...people people or leave
*(breaking of the bread happens rarely but once a month I think)
I've only being to the second church twice and I believe THIS is how every church should be.
When I observe all other churches, they do SIMILAR things like the first church!
I mean I love the first church because they show more love than other churches and more than the second church.
The first church treated me like a real brother and a best friend...NO ONE is highly of you. Even a 45yr husband will talk to you like he knows you for 15yrs.
Each time I go to the church...I am just joyful to see these people!
My point is...what is your church like?
anybody can form a church and if all churches are the same then we are all doing something wrong.
when you compare my first church service, it is EXACTLY like 75% church services out there.
There's no disciple interaction, or faith sharing testimonies.
--Many people just go to church, do their own worship, listen to sermon and depart their own way and go back home doing their thing.--
This is not how the bible taught us.
Why must we keep giving our offering every week? I like the second church because you can go to the offering place anytime and just give your offering. Without people passing baskets around during worship. Just another tradition rule formed by man.
People should not be pressurised to put something in the basket all the time, each week. They should have a freedom to pay the church whenever they feel!
The only problem with the second church is that, they SING TOO much man:/ I am not a fan of the singing but of the sermon...sermon makes me learn things. And for the part I bolded, people share their experience they had in the past week, something God did for them.
The point of going to church is to worship in the presence of our Father. The second church, people talk about signs, miracles and visions experiences. But other churches I see none of that.
This woman gave me a vision the lord showed her and the message makes sense for me. The friend who invited me to the second church told me how the Lord poured grace on him last week.
I think if we can experience a heavenly sign/blessing in a church then we are in the right church and others void.
I haven't experienced anything in that second church yet because I've only been there twice.
But if the Lord touches me on my third go....I know this IS the right church
