Wasn't you created by him/her just like ALL the rest of creation? So what makes you think that attending a church will profit you in any way....when deep inside you know that the only true "church" resides within your heart. Don't look outside yourself for salvation. Consult your heart's purity....then....within time, you will know all you need to know, according to your understanding. God Bless you OP.....and no hard feelings |

For those on the pulpit, believing their word to be superior to all else's without consideration of another's situation and experiences, like yourself dgn, then no. However, all will be corrected of their mental illnesses. |

God Bless you OP.....and no hard feelings "Therefore Jesus said again: “Most truly I say to YOU, I am the door of the sheep. 8 All those that have come in place of me are thieves and plunderers; but the sheep have not listened to them. 9 I am the door; whoever enters through me will be saved, and he will go in and out and find pasturage. 10 The thief does not come unless it is to steal and slay and destroy. I have come that they might have life and might have it in abundance. 11 I am the fine shepherd; the fine shepherd surrenders his soul in behalf of the sheep. 12 The hired man, who is no shepherd and to whom the sheep do not belong as his own, beholds the wolf coming and abandons the sheep and flees—and the wolf snatches them and scatters them— 13 because he is a hired man and does not care for the sheep. 14 I am the fine shepherd, and I know my sheep and my sheep know me, 15 just as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I surrender my soul in behalf of the sheep.'
