No it doesnt,

Unless u go to a black/Nigerian church.

U will never know Wat true fellowship/brethren is until u worship with oyibo pple.

Their simplicity will only remind u of Jesus.

Yes if its with with people, I completely agree with you. But then, those ones could be racist.

JESUS!!!
Now I realize why JESUS is pleading on our behalf...
sincerely there are lots of souls to be won, let your kingdom tarry Lord so we can all make ammendments and correct our ways...
please renew our minds and give us the grace to hold on till you arrive....Amen
Remember the sabbath day and do keep it holy...
shalom...

If they are true Christian's they won't be racist.

Even if they are they won't practice it in church.

Becos of me and a few black pple in our church , the whites now demand for jollof rice every celebration.

When u need help, they will come out in full force. Don't be surprise to see the bishop of ur diocese in the children section rolling on the floor playin games with the children.

Nothing is a secret, u can go to ur vicars house at any time. They will tell u it a working vicarage.

It's so liberating.

But in John 5: 17; "But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh even until now, and I work." In response to the Jews who questioned why he would heal the man, sick at the pool of Bethsaida for 38 years, on the Sabbath day.

Who else did he heal?

Haven't gone to church for months now and every Sunday my mom thinks I'm the anti christ, I think I know what's right and wrong I know what to do so I don't hurt my fellow man, I went to church for years was in children's department as a kid but now, I just feel drained, I know God exists but I just feel like going to a church doesn't automatically make me a saint I know for a fact I'm much better than half the people pretending every Sunday going to church.. I haven't prayed for a while now, not because I don't believe God, but because I think he'd be alright with one less person begging him for stuff

Real Christians don't have any religion to loose.



Christianity is just their way of life.


Kindly define or explain "Christianity Is just their way of life", beyond been a new age over-flogged cliche now floating around moreso in denial or lack of cogent convincing lntelligent or inspired explanation or dialogue.

Going to church to pray on Sundays is rude. undecided

The bible says in Genesis 2:2 "By the seventh day God had finished the work he had been doing; so on the seventh day he rested from all his work."

Why pray on a day when god is resting. No wonder people's prayers never get answered. That is because god is on holiday and the office for answering prayers is empty. grin

It is better to pray on Monday because that is a working day and god and his angels will be at the office cheesy

People really need to read their bibles tongue



Looks like someone has forgotten that Saturday is the seventh and last day of the week?! undecided

It's no news that many of us Christians are fast losing our religion, a Sunday is just like any other day in our calender. What really Is the reason for this? And what could make you start going to church again.

You are losing your faith because your faith was based on the wrong reasons. Poverty, pain and disease makes people very religious. This is why Nigerians look up to God.

yes, God is everywhere, and were 2 or 3 are gathering, God is their.... This is just an excuse many christian use, the road to back slid is step by step. Even the apostles which this verse are directed at, tether together to worship God. Jesus enter the synagogue (church) quote from the book of isaiah.


How's it an excuse?
There you go, quick to rebuke it.
Is the inference that such a family's gathering or prayer won't be blessed? Because that's the premise here.
If not so, then your citation is the excuse to wanna make folks go to gathering of sinners, thieves, robbers, prostitutes, etc. Aren't these the kinda ppl supposedly expected in church so their 'sinned' souls can be saved as requested by the bible?

Now picture this:
The pastor opens his/ her church doors on a Sunday.
Consequently, here comes in these societal known notorious vagrants requested and expected to be in church by the bible dressed in you guess how. Will you go back there to worship next church day alone or with your family? Don't think so!
most likely, they won't pay tithes, but observe and device how collections will be stolen.
If this actually continues every church day, no one will tell the pastor that's time to close up shop.

However these are the likes of church goers today disguised in fancy attire; mere wolves in sheep clothing!

So all things considered, it makes much more sense to be within your domicile with family and or friends and worship safely, untainted, by those vagabonds the bible expects in the sin house... the church!

To each his own folks.

The reason is just one. That is preference to obey the flesh than to live in the spirit. Anything like tiredness, work to do, no light to iron clothes, e.t.c., are nothing but excuses. You can deceive others, but not yourself. It is when we have problems that our brains return to default settings.

I stopped going to church cos church goers don't worship Ggd in spirit and truth anymore. How can you explain that people chose to ve double standard to how the comport themselves in church vis a vis how the handle other activities ie the corruption in the nation. Must people that led us to were we re now go to church every Sunday yet they re monsters in mismanagement and looting. Going to church has never made any difference in church goers life.
