Church

I saw the below meme and originally agreed...
Then just like the prodigal son, "I came to myself (my senses)...

I may not leave church or stop going because of hypocrite members of a church. We're all studying, learning, walking by faith together. (Lesson) The church IS the people; let us keep that in mind. The church is NOT a building! The Father is coming back for a church without a spot or a wrinkle <-- that is not a building! He's coming back for us. The people are the church. Church equals people. People = Church (Okay: end of lesson) So no, I wouldn't dare blame attendance issues on church. However, I will leave a church because of a hypocritical Leader of the flock i.e Pastor. Referring back to the meme: I don't want any out of shape, ill-prepared trainer working me out, pushing me to the limit, telling me what I can do, and encouraging my inner fatty that loves cupcakes to just; put it down and walk away. How could that trainer obviously work with me when it's obvious the said trainer can NOT themselves work it out?! So yes! I don't intend to attend church, or class, or anything else where the LEADER hasn't been properly trained and prepared for the task at hand. If they don't follow the same expectations they encourage for me how should I expect any different results than the one's they themselves are "advertising". Ever heard the saying; you are a walking advertisement for your business? It's true! 
I'd rather try it alone and study to show myself approved than to be made twice the son of hell as the teacher of the law. Them that don't follow the law (let's be real), respect the law enough to not appear or live hypocritically. 

That's just me though O_o
