Contest: Tell Us About Your Religion
Hello my dear steemians! How was your day? I know and feel tht you are all doing fine. While my baby is asleep, I tried to read my steemit account. As I check this community, I saw this newest contest by @belenguerra and @fendit. As I read the rules, I stopped and so interested for the topic. So, here I am and I am willing to share my religion.
I am a PROUD Pentecostal
There are lots of religions all over the world but one thing is for sure, it cant save you. Yes, your religion cant save you but your good works and the grace of God can only save you. We have different beliefs but we just believe one thing, and we only have one goal. If you have a good heart and everything you do is good and you dont go to church, then you still be saved. In my opinion, religion/churches are just instrument by God so that you will be encouraged to do good and for you to be reminded esp when you do somethings not good. So, whatever your religion is and you really do it for God's glory and not to please people then you deserve the greatest promise God has given you which is an eternal life and to live in a place full of happiness.
What we Normally do during our fellowship?
While the fellowship started inside the church, the sunday school teacher will gather the kids to teach them new songs and bible verses. But before that, the teacher will usually tell them a story about the goodness of God. I am once one of the kids on our time and I am so excited every sunday because I will be hearing another Bible story.
Then after their session, they will be brought inside the church and will present their newly learned song and verse. In this manner, their talents will be shown and developed.
At exactly, 9:00 o'clock in the morning the Bible Study will start. In this session, one of the pastors/elders from the church will discuss the scriptures. The Bible for us Christians, serves as our map to tha place God has promised us. While waiting for our Creator's greatest come back, we study His words and how to be one of chosen person to go with Him. And in this session, we are encouraged to ask the things that made us confuse about serving Him. And we are also given the chance to speak up and tell our side.
Next in line is the testimony, in this part of the program we are encouraged to testify God's goodness. We can't deny the fact that God has shown miraculous things in our life and we are encouraged to share it in front. In this way, the people who are weak and feeling unwell will be motivated and blessed if they will hear that God is really doing things unexpectedly.
Then, giving of tithes and offering. In the bible we are obliged to give our tithes and that is 10% of our income. This will be used by our pastor and for the ongoing construction of our church.
Afterwards, some of the groups (Youth Group/AYO, Kids Group/Kids in Praise, Ladies Group/ALMS and the Elders Group) are assigned to offer a song.
The Praise and Worship
Message
This is one of the best part, for me. In this part we are going to give back God's goodness through dancing with the accompaniment of the different instruments. And in this part, if you will just feel the message of the song you can feel that God is touching and hugging you. No one is dictating us what to do here, we are allowed to jump, to shout, to dance and to even cry. And that only depends on the Holy Spirit inside you.
According to Matthew 4:4 that Man shall not lived by bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God. In this part, we are hearing a message from God through a Pastor or any guest speaker. We will be hearing something good and something that will inspire us to do good everyday.
And that is our 3-hour fellowship. I hope that I did not hurt anyone from this team. All I want to say is whatever the religion you have right now you will be save if you just do good everyday, everytime, everyhour, everyminute and even every second of your life.
I just want to say thank you to @belenguerra, @fendit fir making this kind of contest. For letting us share our religion. And thank you as well for this community @writingnreview for welcoming me here and letting me be part of your community. My appreciation as well to cryptokannon, @steemingcurator01, @steemingcurator accounts and @booming accounts for always noticing our post. Thank you and have a great day!
Love lots,
