Please I need advice on what to do, I have decided to change my church from the main family church to a new one mainly because I find peace and rest of mind in this new church unlike the other where you can't comfortably sit because gossipers are every where and they are both bible-believing church but my Dad has threatened to deal with me if I change saying he owns my life and he decides what I do with it and so I can't leave the church but that's where my mind is and I believe I own my life so I decide what I do with it and also have been experiencing unexpected miracle since I joined this church. Please I need your advice on what to do. Thanks
urs is good my dad ban us from going me being the reason of the ban bcus reject every tradition of the elders. I don't argue with him I went to God in prayer let's say a minute prayer and God visited him that night and warn him to let me be and he has let me alone. Your dad can't be as stubborn as mine but the ball is in ur court.

Ur father is a religious hardliner. Is very dangerous for you to start another church cos u will not have peace or favor from him.

How old are you? If you are still a minor, he may not agree but if you aren't , he has no say. Follow your mind.

Miracles only comes to individual by faith, or sometimes favor. if ur dad says no, the truth might be harsh., but u must obey ur parents even d bible condemns disobedience.The best u can do is to pray about it, n talk 2 pple who u know r close to him to convince him.


It is to you according to your faith and faith comes by hearing.

You don't just believe that this and that will happen because you're a Christian ;no. God honours his word much more than his name.

Until you know where he said it and believe it Z nothing happens.

And there are churches that teaches the word better than others.... If your a Christian that still visit prayer houses it is because you are not word filled.

No Church is the best.

Sure but for individuals, any church were you find inner peace and liberty for your spirit is the best for you.

Some churches do better than others in helping Christians take delivery of the power content of the bible while others make members lukewarm and always in need of prayer and prophesies.

Oh my guess is that you're one of those guys who believe once they take care of someone, they own them.... Well if you feel the father has the right to tell her how and where to worship God then I won't even stress myself arguing with you.....

which kind nonsense you dey talk for mouth sef..... Have you even seen the picture of the kid. You mean you would let a child under your roof make decisions such as this on her own because you want to show that you are a 21st century dad or what..... Scheeew......

Growing up as a youngster, church was not my thing, my mum decided the church everyone attended, dad goes when he feels like.... As much as I did not like the hours of shouting and muttering gibberish in the name of prayers, I never contested my being there. The only thing I did was device a way to attend the church sessions close to when they were rounding up...... After a while, I just naturally started attending Christ Embassy and became very interested and committed, my parents who were very impressed at my level of seriousness knowing that I was really not into the church thing allowed me...... Shebi na me tire, come begin siddon house back.

What I am trying to say is this, don't go into a fight with any of your parents over the church you want to attend, besides your reasons are very flimsy and the name of your new church obviously gives me the story, firebrand....... At your age, parents know best.

I checked her picture and she looks old enough to be in a University so yes she is old enough to decide her church.... I know how and where I was raised... Once I we entered Uni, we were allowed to make our decisions...

But as per name of her new church, sounds funny though but I won't judge a church by it's name....

O boy, wetin you dey talk? Me wey grow up for Lagos!!!!!!!!! Omo no dey use english judge person for here ooo....

I dunno how you were brought up but as for me and my siblings.... We were left to make our own decisions after secondary school (and mandatory 1 year University admission wait thanks to Jamb)

Okay if I get the picture, the scenario in your family is like thus : dad catholic, mum anglican, you christ embassy, brother, redeem, sister1 MFM, sister2 jehova witness, sister3 deeper life.

Every sunday morning all of una go seperate churches, and come back at different times. I bet you guys don't study the bible together, cos if you do, its gonna be war when it comes to interpretation of the passage.

Hmm sorry o! A united family , or would I say a man who wants to have a united family would take religious very serious because this is what causes disunity in the home.

So tell me, did I paint a good scenario or would you like to tell me how it goes in your family. I'm waiting to hear from you.

You're close but that's when we were grown.... You go to the church that draws you closer to God.... A church is not a social gathering, if you do not feel the presence in God in one place, my advice; change your church... Why will we quarrel because of interpretation? Your church does not interpret your Bible for you, you do.... Plus we are adults and if we can not bring out valid points that back up our perspective then we are merely deceiving ourselves....

I do not know how you look at it oo, but when it comes to God; my advice, praise Him in the best way you can.... Because you will be judged by your actions not what your father's pastor told you.

Well you said when you are grown. The father doesn't think so, okay? So maybe she has to get her independent before thinking of changing church. Peace

I don't agree with you. Though some fathers are doing so, but your mum if a responsible wife will cloth the shame of your father by alluding all financial support to you guys as from your dad, even though it may actually be from your mum. Situations where mothers presents themselves as the breadwinner of the home often pits the children against their father unknowingly thereby creating a psychological belief in the children that their father hates them hence it is mummy taking care of us. This should be discouraged in homes so that the family can thrive together and create an unbroken bond in the family tie. God bless you.

As a lady, the only reason to leave you father's church is when you get married, you can't even leave his house until you get married. Obedience is better than sacrifice and you need to obey your parents as commanded by the bible. This is not easy but with the help of God you'll find it easier. God bless you
