Do I need to go to Church to be saved?

This is a question that many people ask. Do I need to go to Church in order to be saved?

Salvation for a Christian is found in none other than Jesus Christ. (See What must I do to be Saved?)

So what exactly is Church then, and how can it benefit me? Do I need to go? Well, the answer varies greatly from person to person. A Church is to be composed of the body of believers. Believers in Jesus Christ. The Bible says that the Church is His Body (Colossians 1:18, 24). We as the Church form the Body of Christ. We are the hands and the feet and the legs, etc. etc. Jesus is to minister through us to others. That means He still ministers to this day!

So which Church is best for you? Well, I believe that's a matter of preference. If you decide to join a church, look for one that ministers to you. Pray and ask the Holy Spirit to help you in your decision. This way you can be sure you are in the right place to receive your spiritual growth! God Bless!
