You can be committed to Church but not committed to Christ, but you cannot be committed to Christ and not committed to church.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
There's nobody who doesn't have problems with the church, because there's sin in the church. But there's no other place to be a Christian except the church.
People do bad things in their lives. And those sort of things are forgivable. That's half the point of having confession in church - you need to be able to fess up to what you've done.
I think we are all trying to figure out what it means to be the Church as opposed to just doing church.
One cannot accept Christ and still be part of the normative Jewish community; one cannot live by Torah and still be part of the Church.
I don't have to go to church. The church is within me and the experience is my own. It's my life experience.
The faith of the church must be tried by God's word, and not God's word by the church; neither yet my faith.
I think in church you're raised like God is God and you are here.
I think that if you can't be loyal to the Church, it's best to get out.
I think the Church is a conduit to God. The Church is not God. And I think that from the very beginning Jesus taught us that.
Christians are not limited to any church.
