MSC290, I hope you take this article to heart and begin attending a gospel preaching church from now on.
My criteria for a sound church.
1. You should be reminded that you're a sinner who needs forgiveness...that if you get what you deserve from God you go to hell for all eternity. We are all spiritual dead in sin.
2. You should be pointed to, invited to trust in the only Savior Jesus Christ. We are saved by faith along through grace alone.
And 3. You should be challenged to live according to your new nature...that is in obedience to the will of God. God saved us so we would do good works...we are his workmanship created in Christ Jesus for good works.
There will probably be some preferences for various styles of worship and singing...but these three elements are indispensable--essential.
