Exactly! Couldn't help but laugh it off when a muslim friend asked why most Christians stick to a certain church for long, and not moving about, alternating betwixt diff churches every other sunday; since, atleast we claim we claim God is thesame everywhere?. While trying to come off as smart and possibly a free-thinker which I always tell him I am, the idea in itself sounded rather dumb to me. Why in the first instance would you want to that? What do you seek? Alternating different branches within a denomination doesn't make sense not to mention parading different churches with no ties every other sunday. Save the fact that you're away from home, have an appointment at a location few minutes past the end of service in your church and all, it just is a stupid thing to do. |

People change church for different reasons, if you attend a church and it looks like everybody in the church are in a competition against one another, who's using the latest car, wearing the most expensive designers, who is using the latest and expensive phones, church have become a place to do pepper Dem gang, people using iphones in the church looks down on tecno users etc. So you might want to look for a more spirit filled church |

keypad1:What is happening in ahiara diocese is very sad but the pope has spoken & it is expected that the priests & laity there obey or be disrobed & denied the sacraments. The catholic church isn't a place to entertain such pettiness & ego trips. Every priest during his ordination takes a vow of obedience & to default is to attract sanctions. However, it's not the whole of imo state it's happening; other dioceses such as owerri & okigwe are not involved. |

Omooba77:It's primarily because a lot of people have left following Jesus to chase the ephemeral things of life. To some of them, it's all a trend. If another place can promise them a better package than the previous place, off they zoom. I once left the church i was born into in my university days. I even got baptized at that church because i felt the church i was in was forced on me but thank God, i studied the teachings of the church i was about to leave and saw that i was about to do was like trading a goldmine for a few grams of gold. People who change church because of challenges they encounter don't know that challenges are part of life. If 1 challenge brought you to a church, certainly, another 1 would take you out of there to another church and so would the cycle continue. |

Queentito:Or you might ignore such pettiness and focus on the message preached by the minister, being a doer of the word of God & how to cooperate with the grace of God so as to enter heaven instead of the phones, cars or clothes used by others. The way i see it, its a choice. You either allow the petty distractions of materialism affect you or you decide to look unto Jesus Christ, the author & finisher of our faith knowing that Vanities upon Vanity, all is vanity. That 'competition' you mentioned is most likely unofficial. The fact that 1 noticed such things & feels 'oppressed' is a sign that a certain measure of pride lurks within 1.Nobody tells you point blank that you are not welcome there so therefore kindly remain there. Take it as a lesson in humility & relate with them normally, asking God to close 1s eye to distractions. |

If your Church ⛪️ cannot change you, you change Church.... |

gemale: Hmmm, there's sense in this. The type of phone I use or the designer I wear wouldn't matter in heaven |
