Christ 
DOES GOD REALLY EXIST?

This is a perennial question that always prompts hot debate when any issue of spirituality is mentioned, and the doubters would follow with their argument that, if he does exist, why can't anyone has a glimpse of him? Or what does he look like, and who created him? 
All these complex questions create huge confusion on the minds of people, because they feel are not getting the answers looking for. The problem with such questions is that they ask for answers through the prism of rational mindset.
However, one important factor to be aware of, is that the bible says ''God is Spirit'' and therefore wanting to see his physical being in the midst of corrupt environment of human nature, is like wanting to see a baby developed outside the biologically secured and mysterious environment of the mother's womb, which isn't feasible, because the baby wouldn't survive the contamination of our natural environment.
Therefore, if you want to see God you must go to a place, or an environment conducive to his presence, and some of the areas are a church, or in your own closet with an open heart of penitence {repentance} also, there's no where he's spiritually present than the study of the scripture, because he reveals himself through his word. 
Remember, if you want to see football games you go to where it's being played or shown. The bible says humans are the embodiment of body, soul and spirit.
It must be understood that the body cannot relate to the glorious sinless nature of God, because it's carnally minded, however, only the spirit has divinely unfettered access to God, to impact our physical life. So you see, spirit and spirit correlate with each other.
What has become a problem for some to believe is the fact that there isn't an empirical evidence of him, is good enough to discount his presence in the universe.
However, science even, has shown us that some things not seen could still prove its existence.Take for instance, TV broadcast, it's the radio waves that transmit the images and sound from thousands of miles away into boxes in our homes, that we see and enjoy, for we don't see the pictures floating in the air into our homes, because the process isn't important to us as the end result, which are the programmes.
Psalm 19, says ''heavens declare the glory of God and the skies proclaim the work of his hands'' We can see God through amazing created nature around us. But to see him physically, even Moses tried and didn't succeed, so, God told him, ''no one sees my face and live'' however, he allowed Moses to see only his back, read Ezekiel 33:17-23. 
The only time we might see him visible is found in Revelation 1:7 states : He's coming with clouds, and every eye will see him'' And this is the period when all people on earth will stand in his presence for judgement.
So, this shows that the face of God might not be important at this moment, than his spiritual presence in our life.
God bless you!

Welcome! Whether you've just moved to the area, or have lived here all your life – we hope our website helps you to find out everything you want to know about Mission Church.

Some key information about the church...

 

Where & when does the church meet?

We meet every Sunday at 10am for our Sunday Service. Aim to arrive 10 minutes early to ensure you get a parking spot and seat in time for the service to start.

We meet at the church building in the middle of the city. The address is:

Atkins Road
London
SW12 0AB



You can see a map on our contact us page

There is parking available on the site.

 

What should I expect when I visit the church?

You will receive a very warm welcome! There will be approximately 15 mins of singing, then there will be a preach from one of the leaders at the church. We usually finish with a final song and then tea, coffee and biscuits are served after the service where there is plenty of time to meet new people and ask more questions.

 

What happens to the kids at church?

We have a fantastic programme for the kids. Children stay with their parents at the start of the service as we worship (sing songs!) together for the first part of the morning. Someone will announce when the children need to go to their programme. You will need to go with your children and register them.

We also have a Youth service for the teenagers.

 

Is there a dress code?

No! Please just be yourself and come dressed in your 'normal' clothes.

 

Will I have to join in?

Not at all!

You are free to simply observe or participate as much as feels comfortable for you.
