In many Countries today, Christians put their lives in danger in order to meet with fellow believers to worship God. We are blessed that we can attend Church and face no danger.

We moved back to Texas after three years and went back to our Church home. I have a 84 year old Pastor who preaches the truth of the Gospel.

I am at the point where I feel just as blessed in my livingroom, my car, or walking down the street doing my own thing.

I am an ex-church goer(but life long believer)because of the last two churches I attended that crashed down in scandals, but at 45 years old I am very strong in the Lord and spirit filled so I am handling things just fine on my own for the time being.

Betty, I'm sorry you misunderstand. The statement did not say every church "teaches' falsehood. But minor falshoods appear in many things. Many read only what they want to see in a message or circumstance rather than accept the reality of what is being shown. Everyone is guilty of that from time to time. It is in our nature. It has it's role to play in the great falling away.
My point is in your answer to my post.

I disagree. I do not believe every Church teaches falsehood. Sadly far too many do but even in this age there are still Churches that preaches and teaches the truth of the Bible.

So much of what we were taught we carry with us. We sometimes believe the standard opinion we were weened on as to when, how, and what is about to happen.
I tell you the truth, every church has it's falsehoods within it for none are perfect. It has crept in to sow doubt for that time. The doubt will be stronger for those who can't accept any other way but their own. Regardless of any contradiction based in fact.
Truely the hardest thing to understand is that the LORD has made it so for a reason. There are so few who will accept the reason and but a handful who see the reason in it.
