Re: Where do you worship?

Home church for us, but I am not opposed to being a part of a church that gathers in a building at all. It is not about the building, but about the people who gather in the building. As Bro. Blume and others have said, people are the church, and the building is just a place to gather, whether it be a home, or anything larger.

If it is God's will for your illness then why are you seeking medical attention to get rid of it?

Same with all those Christians in communist and Muslim countries who meet as house churches, as well.

Institutional churches, of course, never have such issues.

Yes they teach tithing of filthy lucre. I'm sure they have an opinion on the coming tribulation also. I just ignore it.
