Would you attend to a church which is different from what you believe in?

Christians.. does not worship saints and mary because they are all humans and we are all equal.. they have sin also.. Romans 3:23 "for all have sin and fall short to the glory of God." They are the one who said not to worship them.. read Acts or Just start with the New Testament, but to worship Jesus Christ.. for He is the only way the truth and the life no comes to the Father but trough Him (John 14:6).. God bless!

The answer is yes...i like to go to the Baptist church when i go..but there isnt one in our nearest little town...but last christmas I so wanted to go and sing some christmas carols that I went to the local Pentecostal church..where I must say I was treated with love and kindness...and the carol singing was casual and lovely...but ive recently..well a year ago!!been to a catholic church...my daughter was married in her local catholic churh...and to be honest as long as I can go into the church and do what I want to do im not too worried what church it is.

there is no wrong with that attending church which is different from what you believe in,god is only one.and the priest is the one used as instrument as god to tell and spread the words of god.but for me i will just stick to my beief.i will just pray inside the house and talk to jesus if there is no existing church in a place where i am.sorry arlene05kang..im just saying my side/my opinion.god bless!

I have tried attending different churches in the past and for me it's ok as long as you will continue to live with great values and attitude. What matter for me is I will put into action what I believe and never to step or hurt other feelings. But, when I can't understand the service, I will not continue attending not until I will learn the language!

Hey arlene.. I was born Catholic but am now a Christian. Yes, we don't believe in Mary as the mediatrix as you have said. But being a Catholic by birth, I have formal educations when it comes to issues like that..and believe me I have nothing against that..I would attend any church which believes in God,the almighty, whether it's catholic, christian, protestant or some others..What is important to me is,we are worshiping ONE GOD and ONE GOD alone..But let's not forget those persons who stood/stands beside Him. There is one lesson that my father taught me..He said "if I cannot go to church because of some reasons, all I have to do is go to a quiet place, kneel down and start praying". That I don't have to be inside the church to be able to pray. God is everywhere and it doesn't matter to Him, wherever we are. What matters is the sincerity of your prayers..

Hi, I will not as I'll feel uneasy throughout the service! I rather stay in house than go to join a church that I dont' agree with.

i don't think i will... i am a christian and i will feel weird if i have to go to a catholic church as the teachings will be completely different... take care and may God bless you...

i have gone to other churches because i was invited but not because there are no other churches for me to go to. going to other churches of course is kind of out of my idea because that would only confuse me, unless i would be thinking of knowing more about the church itself.

I have attended churches. mosques etc. I am interested in all people. There are, not such surprising similarities between many of the major religions. Yes I have my own beliefs, but I don't shut the door and refuse to listen to how other people in the world live, even neighbours. We can learn from and teach each other.

No I wouldn't. I am not a religious person, so I would not go to church as it would be hypocritical of me as I don't believe in what church is about. So if you are going to a church, especially one that worships a different god then that would be hypocritical too in my eyes, but if that church's religion worships the same God as yours then I don't think it is that bad.

if a friend really invited me to attend to their church why not! But when i'm there and i saw some difference in my religion i will just be silent and respect what they believe in..

Bible teaches us to treat our bodies as a church. "Church" is where God resides... Even though it's good to practice fellowship, breaking bread together, Jesus constantly did that with his followers, it doesn't have to be in any certain building... Church is where 2 or more believer's get together & praise & worship the Lord & share his words, & break the bread... Don't feel obligated to go to a "church" but instead, make a church for yourself... If you know of anyone who shares your belief, get together & designate a place... Just a thought...

yes i attend church even it's different from what i believe.theres nothing wrong with it as long as you know wo GOD is!:-)

Yes, I would. I believe that most sacred places (churches, temples) feel sacred to the people in them, whether or not their beliefs are exactly the same as the religion of the church. A sacred place helps me feel closer to God, the energy, whatever (I'm somewhat agnostic at the moment)... it doesn't matter if it is a pretty scenic overlook, a Hindu temple, or a Catholic chapel; I can get something out of all of them.

I would for educational purposes to learn about that religion and be able to make my own opnions based on education and not what others say about it. In my hme there are 2 diffrent religions. My kids go to a christian church every sunday and are learning that religion. My self and my roommate are Pagan and feel it is important for the kids to learn both so that later in life they can decide which path to follow based on education. There is nothing wrong in learning about other religions as long as you do it with an open mind. it will only make you a well rounded person.

Why attend church at all would be my question. If it does not meet what you are looking for, I won't even bother. I haven't gone to church in years, and I'm pretty fine with it. I gave up organized religion a few years ago and I have never regretted my decision. As for going to a church that teaches something that I do not believe in, I might do that once, say to accompany a friend or having been invited and can't say no. But to go to it regularly, no. For me, it would simply be a waste of time. There are better ways for you to spend your Sunday.

Yes.. It help me learn more about the religion.. I'm a muslim but, i do attend sunday mass with my husband's family (they are catholic).. :)

Christian based churches are not THAT different from the catholic church. It's all still based on the service to and worship of God. And that's all that counts, isn't it?

i dont attend masses anymore, i cant even remember the last time that i went into one, im also a catholic, im inactive though, by the way catholics are also christians, i dunno but the way you use the words catholics and christians sounds like you believe they are two diferent religion, theyre not they are both christians, belonging to diferent denominations

I would just for curiosity sake. I'm a believer in learning as much as I possibly can. There is so much information out there and so much to learn and discover, why miss out on any of it?
