..spirituality is all about your mindset...

alotta ppl spend 24hrs in church but are still candidate of hell.

. doesnt matter the number of times u fall.. but rather the number of times u rise

You were making a lot of sense until your last paragraph.

So they should sin, confess and continue from where they stopped.

It will now look like, Born again on Sunday, sinner on Monday, born again on Wednesday, Sinner on Friday, Born again on Sunday. Keep falling and raising.

Odikwa very risky.

Let it not be what I am thinking.

There is an innate need to separate religion from spirituality.

Spirituality is for the individual while religion is for the masses.

Christians can differ in spirituality. You can't claim that listening to Wizkid devalues one's spirituality just because you don't like it.

I can agree on going to church partially but not music. Music is spiritual in itself.
Sir no oo see look at d lyrics of wizkid's songs, is he glorifying God? nw read Romans 1 verse 32, if u have pleasure in them that do iniquity, you will nt inherit God's Kingdom.

Honestly, By the time you get closer to God, ud find it difficult listening to all those worldly songs. We need to be careful of what we hear and what we see. They are very dangerous to our spiritual life

1) Evil communication (1 cor 15:33)

It is said that evil communication corrupts good manners nd this is a way of killing ones spiritual life

2) Staying away from mass/service:

Some christians will stay at home on sundays nd do irrelevant things instead of going to the church to hear the word of God and they claim to be true christians

3) The kind of music you listen to:

Some people will leave the church after service only for them to start singing worldly songs. Most youths of nowadays don't even listen to gospel musics. They prefer wizkid, 2face etc. And the worst part of it is that they feel it doesn't affect their christian life

4) Watching of pornography:

Pornography is one of the fastest way of killing ones spiritual life.
I was in a church one day and the pastor said anyone who has porn on his/her phone should delete it there in the church or else the person won't get home safely and to my greatest surprise people started bring out there phones, some even pretend as if a text just got in.

5) Sins:

This is the easiest way of killing ones spiritual life.

6) Lack of prayer:

A prayerful christian if a powerful christian, if you don't pray always, then the devil has upper hand in your spiritual life. And all what he does is to kill, steal and destroy.

Feel free to add yours if u have any.
that no 3 is something I know I can't quit,rap music is the only type of music I connects to,I'm even working on my mixtape though everyone expects me now to be some kind of saint because of how God worked in my life but the truth is that human will always be human

I quit the ones I have the strength to and move with the rest

Your spirituality is fragile enough for a small boy like wizkid to penetrate. My spirituality is not demolished by listening to modern songs.


Ironically, they dance shoki in churches now

I'm a catholic.... I prefer evening masses to the morning masses on Sundays. Reason is that catholic has so much population and the kind of noise, dressing, offertory and walkabouts are just too distracting.
You can't even listen to the word of God and understand it.
My dad tells me I should use my youthful strength to serve the lord by not allowing weakness prevent me from going to church in the morning but he doesn't see it my way .

Jayee, jachie and Ukwu sala mbala by Flavour all of them na Spiritual music that will help your spiritual growth. May God have mercy on you.

For starters drinking water that contains fluoride or using fluoride products is a good example.
Fluoride calcifies your pineal gland (Third eye) hence reducing or blocking one's spiritually awareness.

I hear you, brother! buh don't forget @ 1, wen Jesus came he began with d bad in character and changed their ways, most of ur kind, no offense! tend to neglect dz, 1 cor 15:33 says, dont be misled and not avoid, it's wen dy mislead u r in trouble.. want to lift ur spirituality, go to dia midst n tell dem about the Lord, scatter n rearrange them, forget hell fire n speak love to them! because this days, we forget what's important.. hiz love, half the ppl in church today, are dia because they don't want to go to hell not because they love him enuf to b with him.. take hell out of the equation and see what happens.. u myt b shocked to see tht ur pastor in the club, no offense once again.

2. it takes the grace of God to come against these things unlike we preach so easily in churches like it took them 2hour to rid themselves from sin, people need to b taught and not only preached to, to be told, they are free and to be condemned.. check everyone Jesus met, he never saw how sinful they were or how times they kept the Sabbath.. your spirituality is the love God has for you, and only him can save u.. so, this list, u can't do on ur own! so.. stop putting people some much in a tight corner and tell them how much God cares and wants them around!!

by the God Loves you, have a blessed day and a prosperous week! he is with you...

I agree with the music issue. Not that all worldly music are bad, personally I enjoy love songs esp old sch but there are some music, as a comedian once said that u need condom to listen to because of the lyrics. If your relationship with God is impt to u, I think d kind of music u listen to wld matter
