My mom and my church...

I understand your concern for your mother, however, the only thing you can do, is to love her, and pray for her. If she is open to it, you might from time to time share scriptures with her concerning this, so that she can better understand, however, do not try to force her to return. God is love, and not into force of any kind. If and when she is ready, she will make her own move. Just love her in the mean time.

It does not matter, once you turn your life over to G-d you belong to him. The reason we should keep practicing good behavior are for the benefits it gives us on earth, and better knowledge in heaven. The blood of Yeshua is everlasting and forgives all.

Uhm, why would a real god (not just one invented by a church to increase church attendance) care whether or not your mom is going to church or whether she disagrees with your pastor?

Isn’t it obvious how self serving such ideas are to the church?

If she has been saved, she CANNOT go anywhere but Heaven - she has been bought with a price, paid for by Jesus blood on the cross - that doesn’t mean sometimes we’re fail to stay as close as we should be and backslide - of course He understands and knows all about the situation…even before ot occurred - as Christians we’re still going to make mistakes, we’re certainly not perfect - but He tells us Christians if we confess and ask for forgiveness, He is Faithful and Just to forgive - certainly that doesn’t mean we can do what we want - the Holy Spirit who lives within, giudes us and gives us the desire to only do or say what pleases God - just take it to the Lord in prayer !

she stopped going cause of the people that go there that she doesn’t like. it’s just little things like someone said something to get on her nerves and dumb piddly stuff.

sorry, but I don’t believe in once saved always saved. If I am going to church, and then I backslide and sin or rebel against my pastor, if I die before I come back and make it right with god, then I won’t go to heaven. we have to be renewed in the holy ghost (the spirit of god) every day. you can’t be saved without a preacher in your life, and right now, my mother hates anything that has to do with the word “preach”.

1 Corinthians 6:20 For ye are >> bought with a price > your salvation > sealed << with that holy Spirit of promise.

I recommend that you pray for your mom and pray for reparation of her broken relarionship with God. Maybe she’ll come to her senses. It seems she is not letting go of anger and it’s only building a wall between her and the church. She isn’t being mature about her frustrations. We are to forgive. Especially with small things that upset her. All you can do is talk to her and pray for her.

Perhaps your mother decided that the religion/church that you belong to is not for her. Have you asked her why she quit going. Maybe your church preaches and teaches things (such as homosexuals are going to hell, have sex before marriage and go to hell, etc.) that she does not believe. Maybe she needs something different. One thing I know is that you are not on this earth to judge your mother. You say you love her and that she is the best mom ever. That should be enough. She is an adult and is capable of making the choices when it comes to her life. If you believe in hell and prayer, then pray for her. But at the same time pray that your heart and mind will be open to what she has to say about your church. There is a reason there are millions of churches and not just one. Not one church is best for everyone.
