it's because most of them don't research well on the topic before mounting the pulpit, I was in church yesterday and couldn't even absorb anything from what the pastor said, just hammering on the same point times without number, without defining her terms
ur pastor na woman...she must have missed her period..before u pounce on me..ask d light skinned usher by the door..he made arrangement for the pastor's missing period

Like play like play these things are becoming unbecoming and more like an outbreak among the pastors in Nigeria. Well as a young scientist i'm born into a world of observation and as an observer i pay attention to minute things. But much more as a Christain it seems good to put into light some bad habit exhibited by pastors of various churches in Nigeria. Below are some of them:

1. Shout Hallelujah: the Pastor will just climb the pulpit and as soon as he does he tells the church "Let somebody shout Hallelujah" and the church will shout Hallelujah though the church don't know why they are shouting hallelujah grin so to them it has become a routine. For a sermon of 15 minutes the pastor go don give hallelujah order like 30 times grin

2. Amen: Pastor sees the congregation is not interested in his formulated sermon so hm go say "Amen somebody" the church go reply Amen like he has just said a prayer.

3. Praise the Lord: while there is nothing wrong in praising the Lord yet everything is wrong on how you call the Holy name of the Lord. The pastor may see a sister sleeping so to wake her up he says "praise the Lord" for the fun of it. You think God will be happy with you ba?

4. I can't hear You: He just said a prayer like this "Before the end of this month you are going to smile to the bank" and so the people respond with a loud Amen, though he heard them he will still say "i can't hear you". Una dey lie for pulpit ba?

5. Wiping of Face: Still under Air condition pastor go still dey wipe face. Picking up and dropping the white handkerchief every minutes and that happens when he is on pulpit only.

If you have some you can drop it Pastors must learn.

1. Halleluya means "Praise the Lord", simples. So, it should be shouted anywhere, and everywhere, just keep praising God, no tiring.

2. Is it good for the members to sleep or be uninterested? Why did they go there in the first place, to sleep of listen to the word of God?Let him fire them up with that if it would work.

3. See no. 1 above. Let God be praise anytime, no dulling, it is not calling his name in vain. David said, may his tongue cling to the roof of his mouth if he ever ceases to praise God.

4. His ears operate in the 'supersonic' realm then so your small shout was not enough to be heard the way he wanted it.

5. So he shouldn't wipe his face again if he perspires? Please cut them some slack.

Nothing to add, don't criticize your spiritual leaders, pray for them and walk up to them and correct them in love when you feel the need to. Stop criticizing your spiritual leaders!
You know what? We criticize others when we have not taken their place. If you are a pastor tomorrow, you'll do those things you're complaining above more than 100 times your pastor. You'll sweat a river. Encourage them abeg.
Will they accept correction? I only did this online and i got all the comment of been carnally minded now what do you think of doing this in real life i bet it they will roast me alive

The manner you did it here is not ok. I correct my Pastor sometimes, albeit very respectfully and lovingly. The bible has a rule of thumb for this.
I once went to my Pastor, a much older man, better educated and way much richer than me. I can't match him in anyway, except that he answered calls during bible study and that distracted me a lot - I always switched off mine.
I walked to him one day, alone in his office, and said, after exchanging pleasantries:
"Please Sir, with all due respect, I have something that bothers me"
His ears stood, he was waiting to start a counseling session for me, and thus urged me on.
"When we have meetings and you answer calls, it weighs down my spirit, it affects me" I said with an air of helplessness.
He was taken aback as he fell into speechlessness momentarily.
"I would prefer you switch off your phone and avoid taking calls during meetings" I suggested.
He started explaining that he did that for important calls, and that his phone was always on silence. He also cleared that he most times just told his callers that he was in church
I then urged him to always go out to take the calls. I reminded him the "switch off your phone" sign hanging on one corner of the auditorium and averred it would encourage others to keep their phone on during services, which no one may be able to control when to silence the call or let it ring out, as was seen once in a while.
He smile and thanked me. He took the correction.
You could approach an elder to help you do that. But for me, the things you listed there are not worth complaining about in Church, my opinion.

Thanks for understanding, i sure get your drift but it seems people are seeing this in the offensive because it affects their pastor. I purposefully create the thread for them to see that their pastor is a man like them that needs correction always and if their pastor is going to make heaven they got to help him and not stand there watch him go astray because of fear of been accused of rebellion against the leaders. I'm giving them the priviledge to know they are the only one in the bridge to speak against any form of carnality and custom like Paul confront the great Apostle Peter in the presence of the Jews.
