The Need To Attend A Bible Based Church

By Paulette Mason


The world today is filled with so many non-believers because of the emerging of many preachers who preach so many different things and confusing people. There is the importance of a bible based church that teaches according to the doctrines of the bible which if filled with true word of God to enlighten people.

A church is a place where people go to praise and worship God together as a group and also a place where they go to find mentorship and to be guided on how to live life in a proper way according to word of God. The pastors, who guide people through the word, use the holy book as their guideline. The bible is seen as a book that has the inspired teachings of God, so churches that preach using the scripture are seen by most people as the true churches.

Here are some few points to note in order to know whether a holy house is bible based or not-; in a holy teachings based church the preachers use the scripture for most of their references and demonstrations, they use the scripture verses to teach and advise there congregation accordingly etc.

The first thing to look at when choosing a holy house of the Lord is to first know the beliefs of a church and what theirs. It is advised that one should pray while looking for a house of the Lord so as to have the guidance of Most High as they search and also attend the holy house to see their way of conduct services and how they go about their spiritual activities.

The other things to look out for are: - how they mentor their youth. How they welcome visitors and also if they have classes for children and groups to teach them how to live according to the word, how the pastor relates with his flock i. E. If he is friendly and reachable as in if one needs to consult, is he always available?

Some pastors are known to take advantage of their congregation since they understand the bible they brainwash them with some scripture quotes for them to give their tithes as well as offerings in the wrong way for their own good. They enrich themselves through their congregation. They do not have bibles so they trust everything the pastors tell them.

In a church where the pastor is a true man of God and insists on always using the bibles as the only guideline that is truly inspired by God, the congregation can never be lied to or cheated to do what they are not supposed to. In the bible there is also a guideline on how to give the tithes and offerings so they are taught to only give what is necessary.

It is therefore good to know that in life there is no other guideline to a good life apart from what is written in the holy book and to get to know as well as understand the word well, it is necessary to go to a house of the Lord that bases all their teachings in the scripture.
