Don't listen to the "My church is the only true church" statement

We are all part of the body of Christ, if we believe and accept.Baptists, Pentecostals,etc.And there may be true believes and false ones in every denomination.And yes, there can be a "dry period' in church history, and then a revival,And the revival spreads to the WHOLE BODY OF BELIEVERS,I'm sure God doesn't send it to just one denomination.Now then, I hear from time to time some from certain churches proclaiming that "their" church is the last day remnant church,ONLY their church,and anyone in a different church is following the devil and Hellbound."Their" church was singled out for revival,and if the rest of us don't join "their" church,we're eternally lost.I don't agree with that, because if revival comes, wouldn't God send it to ALL of us, not single out one church,and say only they're Heaven bound, and the rest of us are Hellbound. To me, that sounds like more of a cults way of talking.You say?Once they state that only those in "their" church are "true Christians" and get to go to Heaven,I get suspicious of them. You?

A QUICK STORY , MY HUSBAND WAS PUMPING GAS AT A STATION AND BEGAN A CONVERSATION WITH A MAN THAT WAS PUMPING GAS NEXT TO HIM , MY HUSBAND INVITED HIM TO COME AND VISIT OUR CHURCH , ONCE HE FOUND OUT THAT WE WERE ASSEMBLY OF GOD , THIS MAN LIT INTO MY HUSBAND SCREAMING AT HIM AND TELLING HIM THAT THE ONLY TRUE CHURCH IS THE CHURCH OF CHRIST AND ALL OTHERS ARE FALSE AND ARE GOING TO HELL . I HAVE NEVER SEEN SUCH A EVIL PERSON WHO IS SUPPOSED TO REPRESENT CHRIST , SUCH HATE FOR ANY OTHER RELIGION EXCEPT THEIRS , THIS IS SO SAD .

I think it's a deception.

Satan does not want to hear about church or Gods word or mention Jesus in your conversation. He hates seeing people entering into the house of the Lord to praise, honor and glorify His name. The only true church we can find on earth are those who love each other, pray for each other, help each other and read Gods word daily and obey what it says. Of course, there are all kinds of false churches around us and some of them had become so wordly and full of fleshly lusts. Stay away from them. Specially flee from cults who think of themselves to be the true church and are very protective of its members. Fast and pray before the Lord to show you which church should you attend and be faithful to Him till He call us home to heaven.

 

[Dirksenn]

We lift our voice in praise to You o Lord for showing us a true church that loves God, loves others and serves You above all things we do. The Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world will protect you from falling into a false churches who worship idols of mortar and stones and wood. He will deliver you from going to churches who love money more than God and love material possesions rather than serving the Lord. May God deliver us from falling away and going stright to hells burning fire because we have believed a lie and halp truth. Deliver us o Lord from any false churches around and lead us all into a path that leads to Your holy presence. Amen

God calls these people to be fishers of men. When they go astray, God judges them. There is no-one without sin. We go before God because we are sinners. Thats why are always repenting.

 

[Rev. Dr.]

You are now in my prayer, and you will continue to be, you're not forgotten or Alone! [Say a little prayer for me too, would be appreciated]. Jesus is Always with you! And me & my prayers, as best I can in my little way in this stay here on Earth, & also here with & for you. God Bless you... Rev. DR.

All false churches are a trap that the devil set for us so we will stray from our way that leads to our heavenly home. Do not let false churches, false pastors and evangelists lead you stray.

Like the bumper stickers say,"Christians aren't perfect, just forgiven".
