Quite frankly no offence to that other poster but I don't have the slightest clue what they're upset about either. Anyway just let your heart rejoice Cherie that Jesus DOES receive you.

I'm not upset at all. I would still like an answer to my question.

How many times can a person be saved? Why do you keep avoiding this?

I have talked with a pastor some. I attend church sometimes. Recently went to two different churches. I’m considering going back to one of the churches I recently went to.

Find a biblical church and pour yourself into it, you’ll find your answer.

A truly biblical church is hard to find these days.

Agreed. Should be able to find one within 30 miles of most anyplace in the country if you know what to look for.

My husband and I were taught under Chuck Smith of Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa for years. Since then, every church we have attended, and it's been many and we know what to look for, has been off the mark in some way. The world has crept in to most "Christian" churches. Churches these days do more harm than good.

True. The local church is infected with unbelievers, biggest problem the western church faces IMO. Even biblical churches face this problem. The only thing that will solve it besides the Lord is the Lord’s people.

Some of those unbelievers are on the stage preaching. I call it a stage because that is what it has become. Why would the Lord's people want anything to do with it? This is why we stopped going to church. Our church is our home...our home is our church.

If there’s an actor on the stage there’s no true Christians in the pews, not for long, can be sure of that.

Are you saying we should not have unbelievers in the church?
