Infact, as am typing this, am charging my BB in church and at the same time, pinging.

emusmith: Its really worth asking o... A Church like Winners, when the Word is going on, wey d mind to go charge phone? A church with many excesses, what do u expect?

stillwater: Unnecessary balderdash.
Is this what your Christianity is all about?
Picking on silly and petty things that you shouldn't even be concerned about.
Inconsequential nonsense.

oko-oloyun:
Op, if u dey live for my area where electricity is a miracle when you see it u go enter mosque to worship with them to charge ur phone.

Okija_juju: Why is this an issue sef?

If charging of phones is the one thing that brings people to church, shouldn't Christians be happy?

if you had any conscience, what you would be worried about is the lives these people live. If someone is charging their phones in church, it means they have no power supply at home and cant afford back up power sources like generators and inverters.

I think its selfish to be bothered about this. Maybe next time you may want to find out why they do it rather than sit in your corner and judge.

Richy.:
what if bible was downloaded on their phone and they are making use of it in the church in the process got a low battary

Anuoluwap:
bro, if your aim of going to church is to charge your phone coz of power failure @ur house then i'm afraid you won't end up gaining anything @d end of d service. How wil u gain anythin 4rm d sermon when ur mind has two things on it? Mind you, i stressed that it is awful seeing people roaming about in d church during SERVICE, to charge phone in church is not a crime. Infact i'm not against it but we are in Nigeria we always do "over sabi". Imagine yourself coming along wit u all ur phone chargers and socket. Pls which is your primary aim? To listen and gain 4rm d sermon or to get your phone charged @all cost?

Okija_juju:


Lets stop clowning ourselves on this issue..

I'd rather be part of the Phone charging crew than be a part of the 'Vehicle|Parking attendants' crew.. Those ones come to church only to spend the whole day outside the church looking after peoples cars and not hearing a single word of preaching.

If you people had any conscience, you would realize that this is a problem for the congregation that does not require a spiritual solution but a physical one. If your pastors had any sense, they would simply start a Phone Charging Service for Church Members where they can register their phones and have it charged at no cost for the duration of the service of more. It would cost the church absolutely nothing to set up, it would help minimize phone theft, minimize members having to walk around the church looking for free|working sockets to charge their phones, minimize members having to be distracted by watching over their charging phones rather than focusing on the sermon|service, e.t.c..

Anuoluwap:
Sorry, where does it hurts?

stillwater:

People like you make a mockery of Christianity. Fixated on petty inconsequential matters that does nothing to your salvation. Are you coming to church to monitor phone chargers? When do you have time to focus on who you came for? Arrant nonsense!
