The problem with that is that it is a slippery slope. You end up with lazy people who do not worship God in the manner He asks us to. These are the people to whom God says "I know you not". Why doesn't He know them? Because they never set foot in His house.
Translation = You don’t like it when others “do not worship God in the manner” that *you* do. And you don’t like it so much that *you* declare that God doesn’t know them if they don’t worship Him the way that *you* do.
You seem to think that God only lives inside of your church building.
Nice translation.
I will sharpen the stick like this.
I have a personal one-on-one relationship with my God.
He may be very much like you are God but he is my God.
You interact any way that you care to with your God and I will interact any way that I care too with My God.
I suspect there's a great deal of overlap. I also suspect there is a divergence on some matters.
Pretty much like you and I fishing in the same boat and you would like to borrow one of my lures or vice versa. We are in the same boat and we are both fishing. Fishing technique, presentation and a multitude of other things are equally as important as the borrowed lure. At the end of the day it's most probable we will sort up the fish equally anyway.
If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.
