Your reply is so far off point that it is in another continent.

And stop lying that you read the post. Your initial answer was also offpoint.

Or is maintaining the crux of a discussion something you actively avoid?

I read it.
But the thing is if I get tired of the prosperity, tithes, miracle and offering recycling of talks in the church, next is me and my phone googling how to leave the church without acting like I am leaving.

Sorry, I am not among those who respect their pastors more than God. To me, you are a common mere man too. And like the people of Thessalonica, I don't just accept whatever any man preaches, I verify.

Have a nice century.

Next time mind your business. If it was a guy doing that, I bet you won't lift a finger. Na your fellow female you dey flex mouth for.

What will it take you to stare at your preacher's mouth and concentrate instead of roving your eyes side ways? Did the lady put her phone in front of your eyes?

You sound weak spiritually. Someone that can easily be led astray. Go early to church next time and sit in front.

This is one of Nigeria biggest problem. when someone is doing something wrong, summoned courage and tell them. this is church, home to all Christians, if you ignore one mistake and the same mistake propagate , in future time, it's may become a doctrine.

Stop it, it's wrong.

At least show some respect for GOD.

I sat next to a lady that was visiting IG, reposting things on WhatsApp status and streaming another church's service in church.

My biggest grouse was that she did this throughout the 1hr 45 mins service.

When the sermon switched to why we're meant to correct people when we see them acting wrongly, I knew I had to do something.

So I tapped her and gave her the "why are you using your phone in church" look.

This lady responded so angrily it shocked me. Anyways, we were going to cause a scene so I let her alone.
At least I'd passed my message.

If you use your phone in church, please stop it. You end up distracting people around you plus it's disrespectful. Please stop it.

They will not hear. Men too have join them. Nowadays, everybody lives a social media life. The part that should have shocked you even before today is even the so called men of God are social media free-stylers. No body use social media pass them. Once church is over, check the page of these pastorprenuers and you would see the entire message and videos of the day online.

Like someone once told me, "church is now a club"

Using phone when message or important announcement is going on is totally wrong. But u see offering time when half naked women stand up to dance? That's when I use my phone and God is very happy with me.

I will gladly bench press all day, but you see that annoying stand up and sit down that messes with my digestion? Count me out.

What’s this obsession with honing in on other people’s business even when they’re not doing anything that bad/blasphemous?

Are you God (or even an usher, let alone pastor)?

It isn't compulsory to leave your house for church na...

Why not stay home and enjoy your Sunday pressing phone instead of trying to look religious by going for service you are clearly not interested in.
wetin concern you with person phone! Can you just shut up please. Everyone is old enough to know what to do at any given time. If someone wants to use the phone in church, as long as it's not making any noise, let the person be. Busy body people. Na people like una dey make gunmen enter church. Shioor

Even to read my digital bible?

You mah wey leave wetin dem dey preach dey read my messages, onyeoma CY, can you religiously mind your business?!


Good character is not for Sunday morning alone. No bi only inside church everybody go dey do like fowl wey rain beat, you love your neighbor as yourself?

Tah!

I am not a hypocrite!

You wear long skirt enter church come out enter house, wear intestine enter club. That one no dey immoral for your eyes. Some others own wey put face like calf dem feed hot akamu go still dey reply their clients inside church. What about pastor wey dey use magic do miracle wey dey frame testimony but still dey tanda our girls but only make I reply person to call me later I dey church na me una wan use preach courtesy for church. I go deck you.
so, we should dress to church the way we would when visiting a brothren just not to looks like an hypocrite? Or watch porn inside church just because we watch it at home? Why do we go to church if it has no difference from our home? Why do you think God told Moses to off his sander before approaching the burning fire in Exodus 3:5? Stuffs that you can't do in a courtroom. Kudos to the OP!

My dear Brother, I will advise you mind your business anytime you’re in church

Everyone has his or her purpose of coming to church and yours might be entirely different from hers

A word is enough for the wise


That purpose of hers is such a stu.pid purpose. Why not stay at home to stream her favourite church's service. Why in another church? Such a senseless being! Sometimes, I wonder the kind of brain inside dis ur gender head.
Re: Stop Using Your Phone In Church! by eddytop: 3:38pm On Jun 26, 2022
You did not also tell us the church, catholic church could be boring at times. There are people who also come from a family where it is catholic or nothing and while they are still with their parents, they have no choice than to be obey. But in their inner heart they want to go worship in one of the yahoo yahoo churches in town, but wouldn't do so because of their parents. So when they get bored and because their heart is somewhere else, they can start streaming another church service of their choice online. You did well by calling her to order and it is a pity she was badly raised.

If you are a better Christian you would’ve took it upon yourself to declare a 7 days praying and fasting to pray her out of that habit

Doesn’t it occur to you that she might be possessed.

Imagine that you are battle ready waiting to insult and criticize instead of praying

You and your mama go party, ur mama kon see say u dey behave funny, she kon cut eye for u.. does that mean your mom lost focus on why she went to the party?

This makes a lot of sense.
Re: Stop Using Your Phone In Church! by AfroKnight: 4:04pm On Jun 26, 2022
Pstjey you could have chosen to mind your own damned business. Or Maybe you went to church to focus on another person. I wish she shouted at you maybe you’d have sense next time.
Re: Stop Using Your Phone In Church! by sisisioge: 4:16pm On Jun 26, 2022
And you decided to appoint yourself as her correcter? Human beings and their nosy attitude ! Everyone is walking this life at a different pace....you went to listen to the preacher in church, what she went to do is none of your business so long as she's not harming anyone. It is well.
