Logical fallacy. Going to Church does not equal being saved or having faith. Fact is the Churches many of them are secular driving away the religious.
Evangelical is growing. Fundamental churches are growing, sodomite/abortion supporting churches are dying.
Perhaps, but these are objective observations. Outward behavior is a sign of an inner reality. Usually.
Faith has to be practiced.
This!!!!
You are right, it doesnt mean saving faith or being saved.
But there is benefit to going to church. We are not meant to be solitary believers. Plus God is deserving of formal worship. Imagine some places people want to go but there are no churches, or theyd be kiled for worshipping publicly. Here we take it for granted.
Some of them advertise their "open-mindedness". Why would you say they are dying out? There is always a market for sin.
BINGO!
Who wants to go to church wearing hearing aids when the band is banging out to loud Praise Choruses in place of Hymns? And the PC service makes you fall asleep in the pew which is NOT senior friendly. To long winded Peace, Love and GIVE to the youth, no Salvation, no End Times. Completely ignore Revelations as it makes some uncomfortable. No Come to Jesus message.
