Ya. Well it was He who said it is not good for man to be alone.
The Hipshot Option has been controversial for many years. Freepers of a certain age can relate.
. Yes. I am RC, but find that reading The Word and testifying is more important than attending mass.
I was just wondering you basis for saying not attending a roman catholic service every Sunday is a sin. There is none.
Ok. and correct. I attended services and took communion today and am greatly blessed by doing so. That does not mean that those that did not attend a Roman Catholic service today and every Sunday are sinning. Big difference.
But it is Catholic
Exactly. Not Christian.
Best
OH, absolutely right. There is no schedule set in scripture and we all have weeks when we can’t make it, but for those who would say there is no requirement to attend church at all, I think Hebrews would disagree with them.
I would think when I go to meet my maker he will never ask me if I went to church.
It will go more like this:

This is probably the best video I have ever seen about anything....ever.
Good thing because there is nothing we can do to save our souls. Nothing. Christ has to do it for us. Thank God He did!
Wow- you have no idea how much I needed this! My family and I are in what I call a “Crisis of Faith”, not because of doubting Him, but because we have stopped going to our church because of the way our daughter was treated (long story in and of itself). We are lost in that we do not have a church home and I really want one. However, for various reasons we have yet to visit other churches in our area. I was just speaking to God about my hurt in not having a church home when I clicked on FR and here your post is!! Thank you!!!!
i would agree. the Christian life is not meant to be lived in seclusion. There are those for one reason or another dont currently have a congregation, but it is best for Christians to have a body to worship with and share teaching and fellowship
Don’t leave the Mass and the Sacraments though. There is power in them to help us do God’s will.
Catholics are instructed to attend Mass and enjoy adequate rest on Sundays (see Catechism of the Catholic Church 2180-2188).
Simple google search.
Ive had to switch churches for various reasons due to peoples offenses. We Just made sure to put it across to the kids that mean people are everywhere - and when they got older- that it was especially so- as the enemy will do anything to keep us out of Church and away from God. Its target is primarily young people in formation.
OK. I asked your basis for calling it a sin to not attend every Sunday. Sin is breaking Gods rules not the catholic churches instructions.

Again, I am not calling it a sin. The catechism states that it is
And two, if you want to argue then read what I said. Numerous posts
Specific to Catholics is the tenet to attend Mass every Sunday (unless a legitimate reason)
Catholics do not tell other denominations what to do. In the time youre taking to argue with me you could have been to service or to mass and back. Jesus loves you
I am so sorry. If you haven’t gone to one already, a grief support group might help.
I went to service foday and even received the Body and Blood of my Lord. I am blessed thank you.
