[CS-FSLUG] Why Go To Church?

[Fred A. Miller]

If you're spiritually alive, you're going to love this! If you're spiritually 
dead, you won't want to read it. If you're spiritually curious, there is 
still hope! 


Why Go To Church? 

A Church goer wrote a letter to the editor of a newspaper and complained that 
it made no sense to go to church every Sunday, "I've gone for 30 years now," 
he wrote, "and in that  time I haveheard something like 3,000 sermons. But 
for the life of me, I can't remember a single one of them.. So, I think I'm 
wasting my time and the pastors are wasting theirs by giving sermons at all." 

This started a real controversy in the "Letters to the Editor" column, much to 
the delight of the editor. It went on for weeks until someone wrote this 
clincher: "I've been married for 30 years now. In that time my wife has 
cooked some 32,000 meals. But, for the life of me, I cannot recall the entire 
menu for a single one of those meals. But I do know this... They all 
nourished me and gave me the strength I needed to do my work. If my wife had 
not given me these meals, I would be physically dead today. Likewise, if I  
had not gone to church for nourishment, I would be spiritually dead today!" 

When you are DOWN to nothing.... God is UP to something! Faith sees the 
invisible, believes the incredible and receives the impossible! Thank God for 
our physical AND our spiritual nourishment! 

All right now that you're done reading ......send it on!!! I think everyone 
should read this!! 

"When Satan is knocking at your door,simply say, 
"Jesus, could you get that for me?!!"
