Evil marine,occult world rules&many claiming2know CHRIST or dont know CHRIST&circular have their roots&power Frm there&pretend b4 humans.we are asking so called bornagains how many people in churches are able to see spiritually what and how their pastor/prophet or general overseer look like spiritually?spiritually speaking many of them are devil incarnates those we call chameleons and night poople and if only you have the LIGHT to see how they are in the spirit with that LIGHT which JESUSCHRIST used and said i am the light of the world?if we were you i would seek that particular LIGHT which is right available near you if you would ask for it?There are Two powers available to Human beigns ie spiritual power and political power and you must be genuinely empowered spiritually before political empowerment and many who attain political power do not have genuine spiritual empowerment with the true LIGHT the MANTLE of he that made the spiritual law and the power that be giveth?we reveal mystery to humanbeigns of the world.BEHOLD In the kingdom of Jesuschrist that has come every body is a suspect until the world of justice,the light,the mantle ,the power that be and he that made the spiritual laws clears you,no matter how you pretend to be good or to know JESUSCHRIST AND DONT FORGET it is only at night that we know who is who on the earth and beyond?and those who understand the spiritual know what we speak ,we speak life and power and they are spirits and non can challenge the authority as this is not about i see am well well prophesies of so called prophets and pastors this is accept the truth or perish and thats the authority and power and we are also open to confrontation as we have declared that the kingdom of real JESUSCHRIST has comeback and you shouldnt forget the conseqences of vain challenge/confrontation because this is highly spiritual:we tell you once again descendants of prophets of baal are stil in existence&not all prophesies are from God of justice they are using prophesies to make merchandise of their bellies ,even native doctors give prophesies as well and it comes to pass so do not be deceived humans?
Fear God Be wise like a serpent especially when you read what you have never read before investigate especially in the spiritual before you confront what you dont know the beginning to the end and be it known to you that Every treasure of human beings is hidden in the darkest secret places and you can only obtain your treasures with the LIGHT which real Jesus Christ gives and unfortunately human beigns don't have the LIGHT,the MANTLE ,forget the pretenses they are those we call CHAMELEONS:We speak with LIGHT&POWER that is unbelievable to humans,who can battle with God of justice?Kingdom of God of justice has come&it's judgement?Matthew 13:13 This is why I speak 2 them in parables:Though seeing,they do not see;though hearing,they dont hear or understand.it is written:Acts 28:26"'Go to this people&say"u will be ever hearing but never understanding;u will be ever seeing but never perceiving.thats the POWER"Deuteronomy 32:6 Do you thus requite the LORD, O foolish people and unwise? is not he your father that has bought you? has he not made you?WISDOM is UNCOMMON ABILITY to check&accept NEW TRUTH and REVELATION&parables,NO MATTER how BITTER It is#so said THE Greatest teacher of all time JESUS CHRIST:we know Humanbeings remains limited by the knowledge available to them and will always find it difficult to key into new revelation,especially the spiritual?Romans11,21-30:GOD is wicked and you must know the HOT TRUTH and dont be decieved by ignorant pastors&prophets&bornagains saying God loves you and his mercy endures forever only?

Dear brothers and Sisters, do not deceive yourself. Fornication is fornication. Regardless of where/how /with whom you decide to do it. Cheers

[quote author=Billyonaire post=33292183]You make it look like the church is for perfect people. The hospital is for the sick what the church is for the sinners. The reason I do not go to church is because I believe the church is for sinners who seek repentance. I am not a sinner, so I can not go to church. Have you seen a very healthy man going to stay in hospital ? No, only a mad man can do that. And so are many Christians.[/quote

I don't know what you are trying to drive out with your question but the fact still remains that a church is a house of God and should be respected as such. No sane man will in his right sense go to the alter of God to start partying and drinking, or who can take his new prostitute to church to have sex with?
Sometimes this things just demands common sense and nothing more

My point is that if you are having sex with your bf, then there is no difference between you and church workers who sleep with each other.
Fornication is fornication, no matter the location.

I completely agree with u....afterall, the workers do not necessarily sleep wt each others in d church.
I was following d OP at first when i thought her grouse was that workers had the audacity to commit fornication and still come & 'work' in God's house. But she lost me already when i realised her point is that the workers commit fornication wt co-workers + she also has a boyfriend.

So, will it make it right if these church workers commit fornication but wt non-workers or non-church members @OP....is that ur point?

As a born introvert, i decided to join the church work force six months ago to get more used to people and also to work on the shy part of me.
Two of my sisters are in the church choir and they have both gisted me of how the supposed brother and sisters of God use to continually have sex with each other cry
We are only four girls out of almost 25 guys in my subgroup and to be sincere, all these people are really nice and most times don't bother we girls too much on works to be done.
The problem now is reality is beginning to show itself as some guys in the choir have already started eyeing me, i don't mind them anyway and I guess they must have assumed me to be an easily convinced type of girl just because of the way I smile grin
One is always trying to get my attention in church while the other will not stop disturbing me on whatsaap embarassed
The same me that thought of joining the church choir is already having a rethink of going back to my former self as a bench warmer grin I seriously cannot be a part of this kind of hypocritical act going on right in the church of God. I told my boyfriend about it and it doesn't seem new or surprising to him, it's like this is now the new trend in churches.
I don't know the kind of Christian we call ourself but having sex with Co workers right in. Church is just not done, in most cases the girls are at the loosing end cos every guy in church will know how that guy slept with you and they will probably wanna get under her skirt too cry

/
Once you understand that a church is a place of business and not a place of worship, your life will be easier.

A sacrament exists between you and God that no building or edifice can influence.

A lot of people go to the church because it seems like the right thing to do not because of spiritual uplift.

Some logic fail me though. So because Op has a boyfriend, it is okay for church workers to have sex among one another? Are church workers in church to serve the Lord or to sample their bodies? It is a different thing if these are adults with intentions to woo and marry appropriately but we all understand from Op's posts that they are youths indulging in sex when they should be 'working' for God. Brother this, sister that, who should be role models to sunday school kids. Na wa o. Workers are not forced to serve, if you simply can not be committed then don't be one.

No, she's not a hypocrite neither a saint.

A sinner goes to church to know God and forsake his or her old ways, meet and relate with people who like iron would sharpen her spiritual growth.
It therefore becomes a HUGE problem when one goes to church to run away, get help from sin gets to meet whores in the house of God who continually engage in that very thing they preach against. Yes there is grace but do we abide now in sin cos of that? What's the point going to church then?

Jmoore I can't believe u stance on this. Like seriously?

Re: My Experience As A Church Worker For 6months by Enoquin(f): 8:06am On May 03, 2015
So, OP what seems to be the problem? They ask you out, you firmly decline and life goes on. If you are really there to serve God; that shouldn't bother you in any way, so I really don't see the problem.

My other question is; is it a 25 man choir or all the workers in the church are 25? I am trying to wrap my head around why there are only 4 females in the choir and have the guys have slept with all the females of which two are your siblings or they have had fun with the other two but not your sisters?

An interesting example: My cousin's boyfriend went to invite his neighbour who owns a shop for a church programme. My cousin and I were with him. The neighbour declined because according to her, she couldn't wear trousers to church.
My cousin's boyfriend replied with: "If you are comfortable enough to wear trousers outside, you should be comfortable enough to wear to church because God is everywhere. God is not just inside a church building and absent in your shop, neither is he blind to what is done outside the church"

You took some of ur words from my mouth, d OP should better set her priority right, she should define the reason why she wanna join the work force in her church, and thinking that she wanted to leave just because some brothers her making advances to her shows that she's not really ready to serve God - you don't serve God because of people!
Would she have left her well paying job because some of her colleagues are making advances towards are? Smh.
And how are we so sure that the OP is not even sexing or romancing her so called boyfriend! lipsrsealed

Don't get me wrong abeg, am not a baby anymore and I know the difference between a guy that has a good intention and the one that basically needs only sex from me just to boost his ego among his peers.
These are guys that have slept with countless of girls in the church choir and other workers, what is the difference between me and these girls that will make this same guys have good intention towards me?
This isn't asking out, it is simply boosting their ego so they can go about and say 'i have slept with the new worker too'
I do have a boyfriend and theere is nothing hypocritical about that.


Sweetie,i quite agree with the points the other poster made.you might really have what the other girls do not have and that might have made you stand out.i also do not see anything bad in guys from your church asking you out when you also have a boyfriend who belongs to a church.you cannot be sure of their intentions based on their previous escapades with other girls in the church especially when we all know that change is constant.it's not about you not being a child,sometimes we mistake people's intentions, and can only find out what they feel for us when we go closer to them.

Its left for you to cash in on any of their advances or you turn them down politely.it doesn't make any difference if you decide to give any of them a chance since fornication is not new to you.the fact that you have a man you do things with has already made you a hypocrite.it cannot get worse if you decide to date any man from your church.(i'm not judging you because i'm not a saint either.just stating the obvious).
