7 Steps Back To Church
1. Who owns the Church?
Mat 16:18 You are Peter, and upon this rock I build MY church.
2. Know that God wants me IN his church.
Heb 10:25 NOT forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is.
3. Pray for the person (situation) who makes you uncomfortable.
Luke 6:28 Bless them that curse you; Pray for them which despitefully use you.
4. If they continue, remind them it is the Holy Spirit's job to convict.
John 16:8 When he (Holy Spirit) has come, HE will convict the world of sin.
5. Tell the Pastor how you are feeling uncomfortable.
6. IF NECESSARY, find another SDA Church nearby. The foundation of the Church even had a devil among the believers.
John 6:70 Have not I choosen 12? And one of you is a devil.
7. Seek out the Saints.
