It is sad to think that most people in church don't go for a spiritual purpose. A large number of people in the USA go to church and just go through the motions. However, this is not what God intended church to be. I think this is exactly why Non-Christians hate the idea of Christianity. But, let me assure those Non-Christians that Christianity is not perfect but Christ is. In other words religion is not perfect. My faith is not Christianity...my faith is in Jesus Christ. We must understand relationship over religion. Understanding this concept says we are ready to take the next step by beginning an actual relationship with our Lord and Savior. The flip side is a fake and forced relationship. The key is to find a church that understands the concept and is there for you to grow in fellowship and in relationship with Jesus Christ. Moreover, Hebrews 2 tells us to pay attention to this exact thing.
Hebrews 2:1-3:
"Therefore we must pay greater attention to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away from it. For if the message declared through angels was valid, and every transgression or disobedience received a just penalty, how can we escape if we neglect so great a salvation? It was declared at first through the Lord, and it was attested to us by those who heard him,"
Impact- We as Christians must pay greater attention to Christ rather than Christianity. Those of you who are not Christians I would urge you to not base your beliefs off of close minded and going through the motions Christians but rather, base your beliefs and identity on just you and Christ. What is Jesus Christ telling you?
