So, I don't really know. If someone leaves the church, they should perhaps ask themselves why?

And if the answer is not sufficient ...perhaps a better question could be reasoned.

How do you feel it fits within God's purpose for you?

There is no sense trying to hide from God.  Adam and Eve tried that ...and it is not beneficial, nor does it make much sense.  And don't get me wrong, I'm not saying going to church is necessary for salvation.  I just feel if God is most important in our life, then how would it be if we told God we can't tolerate the people at church ...and at the same time expect Him to tolerate us, as we know He does.

Let us show love also, and admit that others can possibly share something with us about Him that has more value than what we could otherwise obtain from other less wise choices.
