Was at parkway parade this evening when walk past a church, believe it was the fcbc, when there was lots of people coming out from there, guess it's evening service.

Many years back have attended some church services.....seems pretty routine, singing praises, talk by pastor, singing praises, talk by another pastor, sing praises again....donation bag comes out....singing praises again, say prayers......end of services.

Come again next week......

Does church goers every week need affirmations and reassurances?
Was wondering why?

Some do it because religion is part of their family weekly tradition. Others do it to gain prosperity from God the same way some Taoist pray for money from the God of Fortune.

actually, it's the church that need affirmation and re-assurance, not the church goers - that's why the donation bag makes its very regular appearance when the goers keep the faith :wink:

they are in need of an afterlife insurance and religious scam artists exploit the need with promises of everlasting life via tithed or paid membership. it's the best insurance scam ever devised as every dead member does not complain or asks for money back. :wink:

Strange indeed. The gate to heaven is wide open once a man accepts Christ into his life. Churchgoing christians are but sheeple pretending to have a social life outside of work. :rolleyes:

Do you want to know the truth?

Nothing but the truth.




Well .....

Go to the church.

If you hold on to my teaching, you are truly my disciple. Then you will know the truth and the truth will set you free.

One of the many reasons people go to church.

How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? How are they to believe in him of whom they have not heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching?

Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of Christ.


Again, one of the many reasons people go to church.

I go to church to pray for good health, safety, wealth. Church is also for socializing, networking and just chilling with like-minded friends. After the service, a group of us would go to a nice restaurant or to the country club for lunch. It makes my family and I feel more white.

Christians are the 2nd grade Buddhism.

Jesus preaching Sermons on the Mount (Matthew), and Luke- Sermons on the Plains, are based on Buddha Dharmapada scriptures.

Jesus was a Buddhist student turn monk.

Then PAP must be more powerful than Jesus Christ. 70% voted for PAP despite the dismal turnouts at PAP rallies.

Jesus Christ should learn a thing or two from PAP.
