I noticed the lack of growth from my judgemental family members who attend church every week and still have nasty ways ,they literally start right after church.

I'm stronger now as well since I've been doing bible study on youtube on my own, just staying focused. I continue to keep my head up and trust God. He will send remnants that are after God's heart. We need to feed the hungry, give to the poor and help somebody out. thats ministry as well, God bless, the kingdom of heaven is of every tongue and nation, lets live and walk it out.

I'm so Glad to see this Video and Comment I have been Feeling the Same way ,about Church the Building I been in Church a long time Church of God in Church Visited many and They are not like it use to be Soul use to be Saved etc. Everything has come in or They Welcome The Worldly things God was Putting in my Spirit That We need to not have all these Programs Anniversaries Church Pastor Wife Anniversary Convocations, I spoke about it years ago but As I was talking seems no one was Listening at our Church because they had to go along with the COGIC Doctrine and The Bishop I was Always thinking where is these tithes going We don't have A Outreach Ministry to help others They give money to the Bishop but for Some Reason this year I felt so uncomfortably each time they plan for the year Programs etc. I have A Injured back but I would Still press on in Pain until one Sunday I couldn't make it No one Called, No one Visited, It was like where are the Saints that Cared next Sunday still I couldn't make it The Pastor wife texted me said I'm Praying for you, Still no Visits or do you need Anything etc. I guess because I have not Sent my tithes,Anyway I started Feeling Like The Lord was Bringing me out of the Church Building, I went to Visit a Church that didn't have no walls its called Church Under The Bridge it's under a Bridge too homeless, poor,disabled come they Wirship God have Church, alter call they feed them and have clothes if they need them ,they didn't take up A Offering, but if you want to you can mail one in as donations, It was on A Saturday I felt like a different person just free from just Visiting there.I've been gone from the Church 4 Sundays now it's hard to get myself together to go Pain and its Morning Service if you don't get there by 12:00 time to go,Sorry for writing so much but I see so many that Say I left Christianty.

I left my home church too. Been serving there for 12+ years because music is my passion and I wanted to serve God. But my uncle who was a drug addict is the pastor and he has this temper that really turns you off. Even when the worship is going on, he would suddenly get mad and scream at the musician who was off key. Everyone was not God-conscious but pastor conscious because he is just so controlling. I did my best. I had to leave.

[@TimCrinion]

For every question I've asked out loud in church, there have been 20 more in my head that I've been too scared to ask out loud. As soon as a certain type of behaviour becomes fashionable in church (even Godly behaviour) it creates an element of competition where one has exhibit that behaviour.

Agree 100% went thru exactly the same.Was very faithful and loyal to "the pastor"and couldn't understand what was happening .After much seeking for answers He started revealing the truth of his word and say Come out.The true church is not found in a building although there is a remnant there also.God bless;)

[@PearlBTV]

+Lisette Yes yes! But they will make you feel like you are wrong and rebellious! God also called me out and I can see so much clearer. If I go sit and talk and share with my mom, I am in fellowship with the church because she is a believer. So I don't need to be at the building to be in fellowship or even worship. Church is a business an they need members and money to maintain.

[@davidsimons1832]

It's "funny" that you said it was like people were hypnotized. That's actually the case, believe it or not. I went to a hypnotist along time ago to get over all my emotional baggage that I had from going to an Apostolic Pentecostal Church. And, I thought that, if I could possibly get hypnotized, maybe I can get rid of all this negativity in my life. They pump you full of fear. Anyways, I told the hypnotist that I wasn't sure if I could even be hypnotized. And, that's when the hypnotist asked me what I want to be hypnotized for, and what type of Church did I go to. I told him that I went to a United Pentecostal Church. And, he started laughing. I asked him why he was laughing. And, then, he explained how that I had been hypnotized so many times already by the preacher, the highly emotional music, and the worship. And, that's when my eyes were opened. They use mass hypnosis on their congregations. When they talk really slow, then faster and faster, that's all part of hypnosis, to build up the emotional stimuli and to overwhelm the brain. And, when they walk back and forth, pacing, on the platform, that's all designed to overwhelm the brain, too. Then, of course, they try to get you to visualize things with their really descriptive yelling sessions (preaching), once they get ya really emotional, putting suggestions into your brain. And, they REPEAT words and phrases over and over again. Drilling all that stuff deeply into your mind. It's just wrong!!! And, it definitely destroys people's lives. It destroyed mine. I now have PTSD because of this darned so called Church. I thought, at first, that the Pentecostal Church was the BEST thing that ever happened to me, and now, its the absolute WORST thing that ever happened to me. It's like a nightmare that I can't wake up from. I can't shake it because it was so deeply drilled into my head and into my emotions. It becomes part of you and you become part of it. You're no longer really yourself!!! You no longer really think for yourself. The leadership does ALL your thinking for you. Ya can't do anything unless you have permission from the Pastor. He decides what ya do and what ya don't do. And, there's a LOT more that ya can't do than you can do. Just saying! So many rules ("holiness standards"). And, like you said, you're never ever supposed to question the leadership. Never!! SMH Still believe in God. But, have NOTHING to do with the Church anymore. Just spiritual now, no longer religious at all. And, thank God for that. Feel a lot better now, and feeling a LOT closer to God now, too, since I left the Church. Thanks for doing this video and for sharing it. I appreciate it!!! And, good luck with everything. Praying that you start to really heal from all this traumatization that you went through. And, it's definitely traumatizing. Like I said, I now have PTSD because of this so called Church. 😡😔🤦‍♂️

Here for you I found a good word: "Christianity began in Israel as a community( the disciples of Yeschuah HaMaschiah). Then it went to Greece and it became a philosophy. Afterwards it came to Italy and became an institution-then it came to Europe and it became a culture and at last it came to America and there it has grown to a big company!"

I am looking for a small group of believers to fellowship with as I hunger for Christian friendship. God has shown me so much covert and worldly deception in each church I visited and on tv, of course. I believe this is His Will for me. He says in His Word in the end times do not be deceived! I won't by Gods grace...Prayerfully, you all won't either! We need to question, rely on the Holy Spirit and listen to Gods word. I am closer to the Lord now more than ever!

[@AlliV286]

I love your spirit in this. It is for sure not about being anti church it's part of the real church.

Beautiful Pearl😃

[@moejohnson8459]

Congrats to sista. I too have finally waken up to the real truths. I haven't gone in nice while now and I've never felt more free to learn the truth and understand what truly matters. Be blessed you and your husband.

[@TheLovejoyWell]

Sis, thank you for this video! I've been connecting with other brothers/sisters in the body of Christ who are in this same place (myself included). I'm so thankful for Holy Spirit revealing and teaching me ALL truth. Continue to follow the leading of Holy Spirit. You are definitely NOT alone on this journey. Blessings 😀

Jacqueline Walker You're definitely no alone sis, I promise. There is freedom in letting go traditions, just stay connected to the source! Thanks for watching

Speak the truth

[@wildwolfgal]

I Love Christ so much and I'll never walk away from him but I have understanding on walking away from the people inside the church! It's like the act as if some are better then others and don't involve the kids or the members as a whole! It's so much super stardom and making people feel as if they are not as good as one another!

[@valb.1989]

WOW! I Think you have a powerful testimony! God is calling so many out. I hope that you will continue to walk with Him. I recently left my church and have also taken my children out. We study, and worship at home. We were faithful members for 10 years! Never missed a Sunday...we Never missed a program..we Never missed bible study even if we were the only ones to show up! We faithfully showed up to support our pastor when he spoke at different churches. Long story short..God began to show me so many things in the church that were displeasing to Him and that contradicts His Word. If your gift is ministry or teaching, I pray you operate in your gift. I pray that you help lead others to Christ and to the Truth. There is much work to be done. I heard what you said about it being better to leave than to stay and cause problems...I felt that way as well...But know that God would not have His children to bring chaos and division. God Bless, Val.

great video sister. keep up the good work

[@margielavarias1490]

Thank you for sharing your experiences because I relate a lot with what you are saying.

[@GodsChild4Lyfe]

Yes sis, I too have left the church and I have become the Church. The Holy Spirit was showing me things and revealing things to me in regards to the church I had been attending off and on for 20+ yrs. The pastors messages were questionable, the decon's were roaming around like dogs in heat, I mentioned to a few of the sisters on my pew about the content of some of the sermons and they basically said " no matter what they don't care, & Paz must of had a bad night" they were not questioning anything. It was too much for me and I am not that one who will sit back and say nothing, my spirit was not sitting well with it. I wasn't growing in my walk, I tried to reach out to older ladies to you know sit under and glean some knowledge and wisdom from , no that was a mistake. I had to tell them please stop gossiping and all that. Any way I remember I was praying so hard on day asking God to help me find someone at church who I could call friend, sister, mentor, accountability partner all that and clear as day I got in my spirit- Why are you looking for everyone else but ME? I gulped so hard , and immediately cried. I was guilty! I was trying to find this person , or this conference , or this retreat and God was saying to me I AM RIGHT HERE! So that's why none of what I was searching for manifested. I left the church , and just leaned on God for the substance I was so eagerly searching for. What I learned is God has given me more than what I was ever looking for. I have a relationship, I have a confidant, I have a counselor, I have a mentor, I have a friend, and I have a loving Father who teaches me and gives me revelation knowledge. God bless you all my sisters and brothers in Christ.

[@shenellbyfaithlove5392]

Ms. Mo Sis I have a similar testimony. I had an awakening in the middle of a Sunday morning service where God let me know He wasn’t there even though everyone was jumping around and “speaking in tongues.” I asked God to protect me while all those spirits were shouting and He most certainly did. That was the last time participating in and being a member of organized church. Too much going on, mostly all women and never the same amount of men. I was grieved and vexed at the same time. I’m so glad the Most High is calling His people out of that system and drawing us to Himself. The truth of who He is and why we were created is to worship Him in spirit and in truth. I thank you and Black Pearl for sharing. Blessings to you both!

[@amelian9677]

Thank you for sharing! I think I'm in the same boat

[@ceeg0865]

I feel your heart sister. We have to pray for righteousness to win over in the leadership. I saw favoritism especially in choosing who will lead over more qualified people with experience and with spirituality and having the right heart to lead, and it creates a cancer in the Church the Body of Christ. Jesus said, this can only come out by fasting and praying. Nasty people in leadership??? That's not God, that the devil all-day anyway! As Pastor of my Church that God gave me, prayer will lead and finish the day so that God is in the decision making. Keeping a watchful eye is always our charge too!

[@leticiaquinonez9239]

i have the same questions myself im not looking for another church either

You are not alone in this, I attended a Church even got into Women’s Bible Study Ministry, Outreaches, Fellowships only becoming Spiritually Dry, unfocused and questioning and even baffled on if I post picture or pictures or a video of a Fellowship or a skit Women’s Bible Ministry would hold and getting comments or calls saying “ You cannot post this, as we can’t let the head pastor know” it got to a point that at one evening in Women’s Bible Study and having a “group leader” ignore me and when she noticed me I was her group idiot and I calmly put my homework and Bible in my tote bag and got up and calmly said “ I am out of here, I’m leaving” and left wondering okay Lord what’s next ? As time moved on and doing research and it’s a great relief to know this information on leaving Churchianity not Christianity Still Praying and Learning and most importantly Listening in hopes to find a New Testament/ Book of Acts Fellowship Thank You/ God Bless You 🙏🙏🙏

Thanks, I've moved on from this. Now I'm trying to just find out who I am and am I pleasing my father!

[@ItsMonicaJones]

+Pearl Tay (Yah Saves) That's good!

[@jmarcyful]

You truly have the Spirit of God in your life It is sad that the "church" no longer serve the Lord as they should. I believe when the leadership allows sin to run rampant we will suffer God's rath like Sodom & Gomorrah. You stay true to the word of God. You are so right we are not sensitive to the Holy Spirit's nudge when someone is suffering . God bless you dear sister

[@livinginthespirit407]

Many excellent and insightful points Pearl, thank you for sharing : ).

[@scottiescott9297]

Interesting video. I went through a journey of my own that I did not expect; the deeper I went into the information, the hungrier I became and I began to devour knowledge- nonstop. My walk consisted of heavy study (bible study, secular books, audio books, videos), self reflection, analysis of history, mythology, current events, the sciences, common sense and logic... and finally came to the conclusion that there’s no legitimate reason or evidence to believe in ANY supernatural being. I understand and appreciate your sentiments and your journey. It takes a lot of courage to come out. It actually takes more courage to come out, than to remain within the flock, yoked in the sunken place of religious superstition and dogma. I’ve always been an inquisitive person: demanding answers and I was never one to accept idea that “ I’m not supposed to understand...”. That always seemed sketchy and suspicious. I’m a physician: and not a contractor or a pilot. I know that, without intense study, I’m not necessarily going to understand rocket science or computer engineering or astrophysics. However, I was determined to understand theology, philosophy on the backdrop of History and the general natural principles of the universe as a whole. I focussed more on actual evidence. “Religion is considered by the common man as true, by the wise as false and by the rulers as useful.” -Seneca, the younger. I completely understand that there is a dire need to find something to believe in, or to pray to, or to depend on: especially given all that ppl of color have gone through these last 500+ years. There’s a serious need to believe that all of this suffering is not in vain and that there is divine retribution or payback, because we must be the “ chosen people.” The Bible contains great stories and tales of courage and wisdom. However, the Bible has way too many falsehoods to be a credible set of documents; don’t believe me? Look at the biblical description of the earth/universe. Is our fate determined by a book? By a mind reader in the sky? By a devil living in some underworld somewhere? No. In actuality, it’s much, much more likely that there are no “chosen people”. It’s much more likely that we live in an old, beautiful, yet dangerous universe where things “just happen” and that our fate is determined by probability, opportunity and preparation, superimposed on the backdrop of natural forces, biology, chemistry, physics, mathematics, evolution, etc. Continue searching for truth in an honest way and you’ll eventually see that there is no evidence of higher beings. That voice you hear in your head when you’re talking to “the most high” is actually your own thoughts about what you think he would say. You’re actually deifying your own thoughts. QUICK EXPERIMENT: Imagine hearing your favorite song. Imagine hard: to the point where your can actually imagine playing it, or dancing to it. Can you actually hear it if it’s not playing? No. You’re only thinking about it, but your brain makes you think that you are actually hearing it. The same is true for conversations with “the most high”; it’s imaginary, but we’re taught that the voice inside our head is a “god”. No one is coming to save us. We must save ourselves. Religion is false. Live your best life now, because there’s no proof of another life after this one.

Beautiful Testimony dear

[@ChildofYAH1014]

I too went to a Pentecostal church and it is just what your saying. Unholy people pretending to be holy with snobby attitudes. No true teachings. Leaving the way you came in. EMPTY. I left and in the process found out who we really are. The churches won't tell you because they follow a code. We are the Israelites of the bible and when you find that out and study your history in the bible you will never be the same. I had to come out of that mess.
