Written for those who search for perfection in church, in church people, but can't find it... And yes, I have embarked on that search many a time, guilty as charged.

Mark 11:22 - And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.

Have faith in God.
Not in people.

Have faith in God.
Not in a preacher.

Have faith in God.
Not in yourself.

Have faith in God.
Not in your job.

Have faith in God.
Not in your paycheck.

Have faith in God.
Not in this world.

Have faith in God.
Who was, 
and is, 
and is to come!

Who changes not...
He is the same
yesterday.
today,
and 
FOREVER!

This is not to say,
That you should not have
friends,
a church, 
a pastor,
confidence,
a job,
a source of income...

Because to live in this world
those things are necessary.

But to get to where we are going...

Above all these things...

WE NEED FAITH IN GOD!

And where is that faith in God built most? Often times in a church, with friends and family, listening to your pastor preach a sermon about holy boldness needed in this world as we go to our jobs and our schools. Sermons about confidence in who we are in Christ. Sermons that God designs with you in mind!

So if you say you don't need a church to get to Heaven, or if you say you don't trust preachers, or you don't need anyone that you and Jesus got a good thing going sitting in your recliner, or at the lake, or sleeping in... scripture reminders...

Hebrews 10:25 - Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.

1 Chronicles 16:22 - Saying, Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm.

Our faith is built up amongst fellow believers. No, we are not perfect, but yes, we do need each other. Yes, preachers are only humans (all humans can be defined as mistakes waiting to happen at any given moment) But God has chosen them to lead and to deliver His saving, healing, powerful Word. So go to church. Be happy that you have the opportunity to choose one where you belong. Have faith in God.

Galatians 6:2 - Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.
