Focus and keep your eyes on the Pastor instead of letting them wonder about. You can't control what anyone wears but you can control your own eyes and mind. It's not difficult to do if you really want to.
You are a lady and can't claim you know what goes through an active man mind. Notwithstanding, Christianity is a personal race and until when you see your ultimate goal as christ, overcoming certain temptation irrespective of the environment would be impossible. Always remember the world has become increasingly spiritual, the fight is on n real n only the strong would eventually win this race. Stay blessed.

She's going to the wrong church.

Apostate Suleiman's cult group will be more to her taste.

Who knows, she might even get a mansion and a yacht.

Ladies distract guys cause the said guys want to be distracted. Everything depends on your mind ,train your mind my brother. Everything is just packaging , how can u be in church and be thinking of such instead of you to concentrate on God and the word.
Some people dont know the purpose of being in church and when you lack purpose your mind lacks direction and when you lack direction
you end up with lustful and vain things.

I think you are setting a very high standard for the Op and men in general. The church is not the world and should not allow the burdens and values of the world; money, power and sex to oppress and weigh it down. It is an oasis within the world. However where the Op erred and hopefully this might help him is in his definition of church;

What is the church? Is it a place? A building? No. In fact the church is people gathered in Jesus name. This can take place in a building, a home, under a tree or on a bus. Two or three is the quorum.

It is entirely possible that where Op goes there is no sideways relationship with other members at a deeper level than " how are you doing?" If there is no depth of relationship between brothers and sister then where Op is attending is no different to attending a christian event; music concert or seminar. It is not a church. No matter how grand it is.

It is a Christian event. In that wise, Op must expect to meet a wide variety of people many of whom are not Christians. You therefore cannot appeal to them as "brothers or sisters." They simply dont feel that way about you. Your considerations are unimportant. To them, you are just another attendee like themselves. The only duty they have towards you is not to detract from your enjoyment of the event.

If what i have written leads anyone to question if it is possible to GO to churchor or to actually wonder where church is erupting all over your city, I have no apologies.

God bless you!
The church itself has a responsibility to uphold a decent dress code and must inform the ushers to prevent any indecently-dressed person from entering the church.

Have you asked yourself why nobody tries that nonsense at CAC or MFM? It's because there's a dress code. Most pentecostal churches however chose to turn the deaf ear to it.

Some people hate the truth but you can't run from the truth. Knowing the truth and dodging it is self deciet. Happy Sunday sir.

Listen, men are moved by what they see. Temptation does not have a particular person or group of people it devours. And about controlling eyes and mind, O. P has finished this.......dont assume you can think for man, it's not that easy.

EmtolalaaPRAISE:


the thing taya me. they will say we should control ourselves, only if women knew that men were built to follow what they see.

I had this discussion recently, I didn't succeed, so I left it. I said that any man who sexually harrases a woman should face the FULL wrath of the law but that our women shouldn't​ dress in such a way that they wouldn't​ entice a man.

The truth is any man will take a first look at a pretty and well dressed woman.

But they tend to brew terrible thought when they see women who dressed revealing parts of the body or wear dresses showing body line.

Even men who have discplined themselves over time and have overcome this issue can still fall prey of this, if they are constantly exposed to such dressing and give opportunity to it.

That's why some our MOG are getting involved in sexual issues. Because they are still men. Not condoning that though.
Please

Fundamentally​, rather than complain, I think we should learn how to overcome it ( though tasking), cause the argument from women would always be 'control yourself irrespective of however they dress'.

Secondly, the Onus is on us to teach our children, that men are wired by God to be biological aroused by the feminine body, but that the girls shouldn't dress to entice them and the boys should learn how to control themsevles whether or not the girls dress arousingly.

Once the war is first won in the society, it would be won in churches​ and other places of worship.

I've been there too and it was difficult for me to concentrate because I am a simple person, I like to focus on the reason I went to church, if I want a girl, I will just go for her and definitely not in church. however the laps I see in some churches, only God will help a brother not to imagine things. I wonder why one would overcome temptations outside and be having a free access to porn in the church. it's evil

Maybe you can structure churches like mosques. Brothers section and sisters section. Nothing concern one section with the other, your eyes will have no reason to roam during khutbah except you're... clears throat... gay. Everybody minds their business till its all over.

EmtolalaaPRAISE:
I remember one day I went to a church and the sister in front of me wouldn't let me pray. I just picked up my Bible and left the church because most sisters were dressed that way.

I can't be in church and be high in the spirit knowing it wasn't of the Lord lol! No I can't. It's not because I'm corrupt. Ladies that dress to kill , I have this to tell you, you do not know how a man thinks, so don't act like you've been a man before, like you reincarnated to be a woman. You cannot think like men, you cannot think like a man and act like a woman. For me, it took me time but God solved that mathematics for me lol!

However, you cannot finish slaying a man in church and expect him to come and minister to you in spirit, mbanu, sister Kolewerk! If he wanted to get all that high, he could decide to visit a porn site or go to a club where everything goes.

I am no preacher but please some of you that dress to church like it's your last day to attend a night club, please stop it. It is not good. That is why some people go to church without understanding anything. See it happens in a man's head not your head. It is not about why he did not focus. At least reduce the distraction ni!

One cannot finish fighting temptations and winning outside and come inside the church a supposed place of refuge to be slain eh? Why nu? Lol...

Emtolalaa Praise has spoken his mind!

yes u can't control what one wears but charity entails u dress modestly if u claim to be Christ-like. Charity entails you don't be an occasion of sin. Christ said the thing that causes sin must surely happens. But woe unto whom through which such sin happens. To be one's brother's keeper is to ensure u are mindful of the weaklings among u...so u don't destroy whom Christ died for because you want to appear sexy. St. Paul would say if his eating meat will cause his brother's to sin, he would stop eating food(offered to idols). My sister u are at liberty to dress how u like but you should not turn the house o prayer into a club and still tell me u are Christ-like.

I completely disagree with that post! You can help them BUT without any string attached.
If you must meet with her for any reason; NEVER do it alone. Jesus helped "Ladies' and most of the times he was with His disciples.
Choose to be a Joseph always; run while you still have legs!! Bible says we should flee; stand to bind and cast.
Do not choose be a David; You can handle it. No matter your anointing, you can not stand seduction. Learn from Samson.

Golden Rule: "Show mercy to those whose faith is wavering. Rescue others by snatching them from the flames of judgment. There are still others to whom you need to show mercy, but be careful that you aren't contaminated by their sins." Jude 22-23(NLT)

It is rampant in all churches as pastors become greedy for offerings, very soon people under the age of 18 will stop going to church cos of corrupting influence of indecent dressing amongst ladies.

Re: Ladies Please Save Us The Distraction In Church by Nobody: 12:17pm On Apr 23, 2017
While I think that there is appropriate dressing for every occasion, I also think that OP is a mumu who lacks self-discipline. Face your front or close your eyes.

Cleavage out, split skirts are definitely not for church. But with that being said, charity begins at home. If a brother can stop her sister and girlfriend from wearing these "harrasing" clothes in church, everything would be easy.

Parents too. See how they let their kids be and still be harrasing everyone else with thier "you'll die a painful death" eye shot, for wearing the very cloth their kids are wearing.

Also, I think common sense should be used as such....common. One can easily tell when they are improperly dressed for any ocassion.......lady or guy.

news flash. Church is a public place. Like a hospital or cinema where any and every person with different orientation and belief system can walk into and so you may see the outfit as indecent but the wearer doesn't

Well the church is not just any public place.
Any Christian must imbibe the basic tenets of Xtianity-charity. How would you claim to be christ-like yet you dress indecently? Dressing good doesn't mean you have to be half-naked. Do not by your actions put others to the test.
