Find a Church that follows the Gospel of Jesus Christ, a Bible based church
A church/religion is important, you may need to visit more than one, to find the right one.
The Bible followed will guide a church to:
- the Bible says, no statues, Exodus chapter 20:4
- only worships, praises and prays to God/Jesus
(Revelation 22:8-9) (not Mary, a saint or an angel)
- does not baptize babies, see baptism
- the church should not get between you and God, Jesus is the mediator between man and God. Jesus died on the cross, for the forgiveness of all sins. (a priest in a confessional can't wash away sins, only the blood of Jesus)
- no memorized prayers, there is a model prayer, prayers should come from your heart.
- Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world. James 1:27
Follow Jesus
At the end of a church service, there is likely an opportunity to make public, your decision to follow Jesus Christ.
“Therefore whoever confesses Me before men, him I will also confess before My Father who is in heaven. But whoever denies Me before men, him I will also deny before My Father who is in heaven.
Matthew 10:32
