If the church is truly interpreting the bible any other aspect to attract new followers shouldn’t matter should it?

You do not interpret the Bible only with your mouth, but also with your actions and your demeanor.

And when He is among you as He promised, you may be as "seeker sensitive" as you like, but if your words and actions are less than worshipful, most normal people will perceive right away that you don't really believe He is present in your sanctuary.

Ok rather than the word “interpret” let me use teaching ....we the wretched are usually at our lowest point when we realize that we cannot do “life” by ourselves and ultimately turn our souls and mind over to glorious God for salvation . Did not Jesus go to the worst segment of society rather than the better dressed and better off ? I understand what your looking for , but to have prerequisites in order to attend church is strange to me. Usually persons appearance is vastly improved after receiving Christ , and I am of the opinion that some of the Christian music is very nice. Rough crowd here in Freeper land......(joking!) Happy Easter to all of you and Glory to God .
