I missed church service for almost two years now. I call it my religion hibernate mode. I sometimes feel guilty though not going into one. It's just that sometimes i feel that i need to do this - similar to any forms of relationship. How bout you? Have you missed church and do you also feel guilty about it?

i sort of do. cos my aunty makes me feel guilty..lol.. i always have SO much homework and sometimes i need to finish it n church is on so i stay home to do it n she gets angry at me n tells me my priorities arent in order cos God should always come first but i think as long as i love Him first and put Him first it doesnt mean i dont put him first if i miss one church service once in a while. so yes. i feel guilty because of my aunty. lol

Granting that your aunt isn't around? Would you feel just the same?

now lets make it more interesting. would a 5 year church lay off make you feel guilty.

i think i wouldnt feel guilty if my aunty wasnt around as i sed i do have my priorities straight and missing one church service doesnt mean i love God any less. =)

I feel guilty because I believe that it is God's command for us to pbserve the Sabbath day. I believe it is a sin not to go to church every sunday.

yes. i respect that. sin is something that makes you think before you do or undo things.

I do not feel guilty. Gods is everywhere. If you believe in religion you become religious but If you believe in God you become true to yourself.

with that belief i guess you're not missing any service at all because as you said God is everywhere.

yeah i agree ... the obligation part makes you think more before you miss church
