    Thank god I have a roof over my head. Thank God we can use UA-cam to listen to sermons from of old. Thank god I can have a meal every day and that the evil of this world is still not overcoming me completely. While we can curse and complainm and grumble, there is so much for me to be thankful to God for. Maybe the world would be a better place if we all thanked God a bit more.

      @@stormcup2920 I actually attend church now for about two years, but I go alone; my husband does not go with me. My eldest son got saved and wanted to go to church so he prayed and found one. I attended a few social events with him and got to know some folks. After a time I realized that I needed the community of saints. This simple Christian church is sound in main doctrine (although there are a few peripheral doctrines I don't agree on but nothing to separate over), they do not teach heresy, the elders seem to be saved men, and they endeavor to teach the whole counsel of God, i.e., they teach verse-by-verse with occasional topical sermons as the need arises. It has been a great spiritual blessing to me and I really do love them in the Lord.
      However, the spiritual altar in the home (as it used to be called) cannot be replaced. It is vital to live AT HOME what one would live while at church gatherings. What you are doing with your wife and children is very important. God richly bless you and your family and give you abundant grace and mercy for these times we live in.

I have been in great churches in my life but here where we are, the are either lukewarm or hyper tradition. Then for a few weeks we didn't go and no one missed us. I bought a slab of chocolate, sat the kids around the table and said. 'Right any one who gives comments on the verses we are reading, gets a piece'. Great biblical discussion with my own family instantly.

    I was an addict also. I lost my job, went into bankruptcy, got my car stolen, stopped taking anti-depressant drugs. All around the same few month period. Then I just about died in April from a bleeding Ulcer.
    I was looking searching for a truth to live by and went from positive thought philosophies like Eckhart Trolle etc.. to A course in Miracles then back to Jesus again. I was a passionate Christian 10 years ago and slowly drifted from him, and was completely blind again in about 3 years. I really rebelled against him last year in April because my plans and ideas were not working so, started smoking' crack again. I was really blinded and cursed from that day forward, and was completely exposed to the wiles of Satan. Lost everything and close to bleeding to death internally. I have bouts of depression. But I am always trying to be in his presence and his is blessing me again. I fear the Lord he is God and all I do now is wit on his voice to tell me what to do each day. I am has servant. All things wok together for god, if you are called. His rod and staff comfort me.If you are predestined you my go through Jonah and King David experience's. But I look back on what has happened to me and he had to Crush me out to make room for him. Be patient he is doing his will if you are called. I am 59 yrs old, never to late, my motto is NEVER AGAIN.

Of course no one should want to go to hell... people think it isn't real just as they think God and Jesus aren't real... they're in for a very rude awakening though they are real. Christianity isn't about just being worried about going to hell though, its your personal relationship with God and his son and the Holy Ghost that count. Rather you accept Jesus as your personal savior that is what matters.

    16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
