like go from one church to another. Say theres several different congreagations in your area. You want to try them all. How will you know if you dont try?
Or are you just meant to always stay in one church forever.
Goodbook: What I do is research the church group(s) I would like to visit, if they be like-minded(keeping to bible and doing what it say) then visiting that church group would be like going to visit more of your family. Personally, I like visiting more of my christian family in Jesus.
Or is it only wrong to church hop according to the pastor. If you pledged as a member do you have to keep that pledge? What if you didnt?
To me, all believers that be in Jesus, are members of the same family, an that we are accountable to keep in fellowship with church family regardless if they are at home or traveling about. To me, it's part of good vacation planning to include fellowshipping with other believers who make up the family of the Lord. Our vacation got pushed back a bit because my father in-law passed away, but me and my husband we're talking earlier today about contacting the church that's near where we will be vacationing at, they have an online website an I've been watching some of they services, I've read their church beliefs, mission statement etc. and all that stuff is keeping with what be in the bible...I will phone they minister an asks him some questions an if everything checks out, we will take part in that church's meetings, there's also another church we will visit also but it's in another State, Spokane, Washington (we've been to it before) going to that church was like meeting up with family, we were made to feel right at home! That church even opens early an they have a sit down breakfast together, nothing like breaking bread with the family....that was the first time I'd ever been to a church that did that.
What it theres an issue with a church member or a teaching, or the pastor or preachers preach correct doctrine but dont actually practise what they preach?
I'd say there'd need to be some serious prayer done before going to the church leaders/board or elders etc with the charge(s), and I'd say that you'd need witnesses/proof to prove whatever ever the charges are...bad doctrine, false teacher/false preacher etc.
