well, thats best way to welcome Newcomer to the church. But if all men of God keep doing this, people will definitely criticize them that they're taking the glory of new member to tide them down. about the way of their dressing, the way you dressed people will address you.
Re: Can Nigerian Pastors Dress This Simple To Church? by Dongreat(m): 2:06pm On Oct 23, 2016
The General answer is NO. This is because if any pastor like the known ones dressed like this to church, It will be seen as he is poor. In Nigeria, fancy clothes represent wealthy and maturity while simple clothing represents poor and been childish.
Also Christianity is not well practiced in Nigeria as the uniform of every pastors must be three piece Suit (seems not to understand why despite the excess heat) . You have to dress well to tell the people that "your God is not a poor God"; i.e. package well for your followers either gullible or not.
Also majority of your congregations will talk about your clothing instead of your sermons to save their souls.

Although I'm not a churchy type, I'm a christian, and I'm not trying to condemn any Nigerian pastor or pastors... Its a pity most Nigerian pastors live lavishly and majority of their members wallow in poverty.

I decided to go to church today Sunday after a long time, during service I discovered how simple the pastor was dressed, no flashy suits, no flashy gold rolex, no bodyguard's etc. He preached the word with utmost sincerity and I had a nice time in the presence of God. I was asked to step forward as a first timer, the pastor prayed for me and after service the members and pastors kept on welcoming me. The pastor even invited me to have lunch with his family after service which I generously turned down.

irresponsible dressing. no leadership in grooming. Simple well tailored dress that is below-the-knee will do. anumanu
Re: Can Nigerian Pastors Dress This Simple To Church? by acevic: 2:16pm On Oct 23, 2016
You may probably not see a Nigerian pastor dress like that because of the way we see things. We see things differently. A lot of naija pastors will never invite a church member to have lunch in his house. For what!..

WHY DO YOU STUPID HYPOCRITES ASK THIS STUPID QUESTION ? if nigerian pastors dress like that none of you would go to the church because you will say he is poor. so stop asking hypocrite questions. the pastors and the congregations are all crazy. the pastors dress the way they dress because that is what the congregations want to see. and this only applies to black people. lets just say black people have strong satanic spirit in them lol. any part of the world where black people are, if the pastors looks poor nobody will go into the church

Will you wear short and shirt if you were going for an important interview that will earn you a huge contract or job? Or will you wear it to an important evening event?

You should wear your best clothes to church... because God is the reason you are alive.

Do you dress like this to your church? Did Jesus whose lifestyle we emulate as Christians ever appeared like this? Even the Apostle of old never dressed this way. It's not decent at all.

what's simple about that? I see that as plain childish.... can your dad dress like that to church?

It's a matter of culture. In the west, this is accepted and you can see old people are sitting down to listen to him. Here in this region perhaps we are still more attached to our ideas of respect and respectability. Don't assume one way is right over another.

One of my favorite Pastors to date, is a man who i have never ever seen in a suit and tie. Not once. Yet when he preaches, old and young are blessed.

Church is just meant to be a fellowshipping of believers. Friends, coming together... the expensive display of fine clothes is not needed, and in fact we are asked not to strive towards such outward definitions of beauty.

So far as what you wear does not unduly expose you or could not be considered universally indecent, then i say remember to apply Colossians 2:16-21

Wow.....! I have read many comment and now fully convinced that nigerian pastors and members have their psycho tuned to the area of prosperity advert. people mental state has made them believe blessing to members starts from a blessed pastor who dress like a black and matured cockroach with several packed wings, olodo people im sure if Master Jesus had come to earth during this generation. nigerians wont accept him believing he is not a man of God due to his simple dressing and lifestyle. op i like that compared to false teachers who dress like trebor mint to church
