Churches have been Americanized. They have now become entertainment centers filled with unserious people. If you doubt me, tell your pastor to check the phones of everyone in Church this coming Sunday. You will likely see porn, BBNaija and all sorts of nonsense they shouldn'nt be in Church with.

It is all thanks to the American style of gospel and its feel good sermon. Ask yourself, when was the last time your pastor's bitter truth made you feel uncomfortable in Church? You can't remember. That is why ladies now bare their cleavages comfortably in Church and young guys sag too. It's all because the pastor has been tasked to deliver a certain target of money to the headquarters before he can be promoted to the post of senior pastor. If he becomes strict by dishing out the bitter truth, half of the congregation will migrate to a lenient Church, many of which are springing up today. This means the pastor wont be able to meet his target cos those that will donate money have been chased away by the truth of God.

Such a pastor will rather massage your ears with sweet lies of how you will build a mansion and have 12 cars in two months time, when it's a salary of 30k you earn. That is why you find tonnes of Christians staying up late at night to watch BBNaija show but can never read their Bible except when the business minded pastor tells them to open it in Church.

Ladies now care more about their curves than what they have in their head. Yet all these big pastors are not preaching against such. When was the last time Adeboye and Oyedepo preached bitterly about the high rate of immorality seen in Christian lives today? All they want to do is tell you about blessings and prosperity. Ladies now compete to be the one with the highest high hills in Church. They are always welcomed. But when they are seen in Church every time dressed like that, then it means the Church has become a really comfortable place for them. A true Church will be a place they won't want to return to. And if they do, it will mean their dress mode has changed for good.

About instrumentalist, how won't they be messed up the way they are? Imagine them playing small doctor's music while doing praise and worship. What about Davido, wizkid etc? Is God now so hungry for music that He now craves from the worldly scene? Well, it's all entertainment. Keep the people entertained so they can part with their money for us to build bigger branches of Bank/Church.

Amen and Amen @ the bolded. You have written the truth.

You overburden them for nothing! You have seen their wrongs but have you seen yours? They are one of the most committed groups in chirch who don't get any credit only condemnation such as this. Do you know how many times they are in church for rehearsals in a week? Plus the mandatory 2 or 3 times they must be in church to play music you all dance to. Who remembers them? Do they have time for other things when all their time is spent in church. Playing for free. I hear in COZA they are paid, with that they can meet their normal needs and concentrate on their ministrations.
Please don't condemn them when you have not provided adequately.

Some instrumentalists back then in our choir, when preaching starts, they will go downstairs only to come up when preaching is finished.

I look at their life's from then till today...movement without progress.

The only one of them who did not join them in that habit is highly successful today.

Ehnnmm pastor Mike good observation
but it surely depends on the church and the pastor....... you only said what you wouldn't condole personally.
but sir some pastors like the instruments especially the keyboard going softly as a background back up while they are preaching
quote me anywhere Music is the only thing that makes people go to church mostly and a church without music won't grow yes I say so!!!!!
no matter all your preaching and teaching you can't exempt music and musicians
I'm a multi instrumentalist I've played in so many churches in Nigeria so I know how this works just say it's your personal opinion but think every other pastor will be the same and gives a Fvck bou that

My pastor is a good example, he doesn't allow me get up from the keyboard when message is going on, he sometimes bursts into one short song or the other during his sermons and I must be sharp and ready to find his key and play to perfection....

And trust me, he so enjoys it when I give him some soft tunes during his sermons!!

I actually wonder who even introduced hiring instrumentalists to come play in church. Can't there be an in house grooming/training for choir and instrumentalists? Tho some pastors usually fear that they’ll leave for another church to be paid after such investment in them. By and large, there’s need to incorporate them into the ministry so they won’t view it as a regular job

I play the keyboard and the guitar and I get paid in full. For me, playing is a job that I must get paid for in full. If pastors earn, why shouldn't I? I am a very spiritual person (I hate religiosity) and so I attend churches to play the piano or guitar and not to listen to perverted gospel.

aAK1:
He made a few valid points. I'm a keybordist my self and I've gone on ministrations with pastors who want you to keep playing as they preach. It helps charge the atmosphere. So as for playing when message is going on it depends on the pastor. I will never forget in my life one day when message was going on and I began to play open our eyes lord,we want to see Jesus and pastor stopped preaching and service because a worship service. I was playing and crying.

People won't see this side.
They will only condemn every instrumentalist.
I know some choir masters who are also their church's main instrumentalist and they are committed.

There are pastors who flow more with soft music in the background during sermon.
Nobody should say it is unscriptural.
Elisha asked for a musician when he needed to prophesy and when the minstrel began to play, the spirit came upon him.(2kings 3:14-16)

David also drove away evil spirits from Saul through his harp.

Music is a very powerful tool for ministration so rather than criticise all instrumentalists why not encourage them to always exercise themselves in the spirit in order to be able to invite the tangible presence of God through their instruments whenever they play during church services

Re: Mike Bamiloye Exposes Church Instrumentalists by brosammy(m): 2:22pm On Apr 01, 2018
You are absolutely right, not only you has observed it. Sir one thing is that this days a lot of people goes to church for various reason aside to meet with God: some went their to met their girlfriend/boyfriend, some came to charge phone, some came to collect money and some came for meriment so you will agree with me that such people will not concentrate or gain any thing in church, so it isn't only the instrumentalist that do that today in the church but the instrumentalists are always find in the front that was the reason why their own case can be observed quickly. May God save this our generation who take things of the spirit for granted

This is quite true, instrumentalists always behave like anything, they will sleep, chat And browse during sermon. I have only seen two different Scenarios.
Then in Secondary school when one of our teachers came to preach, Mr Ayo he will chase all the instrumentalists into the congregation making them to listen to a particular extent.
And the RCCG Youth church I attend presently, Kings Court Ikere, immediately it's time for the sermon, all instrumentalists leave their instruments, they are regarded as ministers too, no room for yamayama
Modified*
Likewise Some instrumentalists are spirit filled, playing their instruments always calls for the hand of God. An instrumentalist once played that the spirit of God fell upon him himself but the instruments continued playing itself. The Angels of God took charge of the instruments
Note: the notes that were played weren't recorded, the congregation that day was charged with God's presence.
Re: Mike Bamiloye Exposes Church Instrumentalists by Nobody: 4:07pm On Apr 01, 2018
whats his beef with musicians in church, if the holy brothers and sisters dont want to learn how to play, then the church must hire people, most of these folks arent born again but i can say they are dedicated to their task.

problem is many of these folks are unappreciated and treated as scum by the church leaders.
