Giving First Timers Money In The Church, Is It Right? by hunter47(m): 11:43am On Dec 03, 2017
Happy Sunday. I wanna ask is it right for a church to give first timers money? I kinda see it as a bribe or something of sort. What do y'all think?

U pple aff come again....

Pple have been opening thread lamenting that they want church to be a give and take transaction.... you now see church giving money to first timers, you decided to tag it as bribe....

Can we human beings ever be pleased....

Anyways, I've seen churches do it......

Sometimes when church groups go for evangelism...they meet pple who claim they don't have means to come...so if the church doesn't have transport logistics in place. They give cash compensation since they've probably promised.
So as not to be biased about the giving cos other first timers might notice it...they kukuma give all...but it's not usually done every sunday.

Oga don't try and label it what it's not.... did they announce it as bribe, shebi church give rice,they give biscuit and coke, gala, burger meat pie, now that they made it money u want to bring bribe out of it.
U asked for our opinion......
its clear u don't really want it...u just want to indirectly pass the news as church bribing members.
leave it as bribe then....
