Christ centered or self centered?

It sucks to know that there are some Christians who's intentions in attending mass/worship service is to please themselves rather than please God. I mean, of course we cannot see the intention of a person, because it is between him and God. But if his action tells us otherwise, then we can assume that indeed they are pleasing only themselves. Pleasing oneself during a mass or worship service eliminates the true meaning of worship. It is to please God regardless of who the priest/pastor/minister is, who the song/worship leader is and who are you with during the mass/worship service.

yes that's true jael, A true believer of GOD worship him not by physical thing but spiritual side. It's speak louder in actions and how their expressions. Good to know that you noticed that. We are living in the last days of the Earth. Majority of us are Christian we used his name but deep inside we are very far from him. Scripture says the road to heaven is narrow, for those people who were chosen are very privilege to enter for they will see his eternity and love. How wide is the road to HELL. They will experience forever torment and no love. Be patience in everything we do. Let go all the evilness of these world and follow our sinless,blameless,perfect and HOLY father who is in HEAVEN.

Yes it is true. We need to examine our hearts, allow God to search our hearts.As bible tells, Jesus must increase and I must decrease. If we put ourselves above God, then we make lord to ourselves.

It is horrible to go to Church for any other reason than to serve and worship God. We heard this guy saying the other day that he is going to go to Church so he can get in good for himself on the police force. A guy that goes to that church is good friends with the pastor and he is in the Sheriff's department. That is the only reason for him going to church so he can get the job he wants!?! I was shocked and saddened by this. It does happen more than we think it does...
