That's a fallacious statement.
The sin I know the bible said is irredeemable is the sin of blasphemy.
Some pastors crack jokes during sermon, does that mean they will go to hell ??
Where exactly in the bible is it written that when one makes someone laugh in the temple that one must go to hell ??
Sin is an immoral conduct. Is making someone happy an immoral conduct ??

I am neither a Christian nor in support of cracking jokes in churches but that doesn't mean that those who do it will not make heaven.
The bible has given a criterion for going to heaven which is only believing on Jesus Christ, and this makes me wonder what gives you such temerity to conclude that someone that just crack a mere joke will go to hell, and besides, you didn't even specify if the joke is an immoral joke or a harmless joke that does not in anyway adulterate the essence of the gatherings of God's people.

I fully support it, the funniest one I heard was when a pastor said drove his vehicle from Ogun State to Lagos State without gas in the tank.

paxonel:
do you think that place in front of church is God's altar?
You must be joking.

God's altar is right inside you, not any building or construction in front of church.

Acts 17:24 God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands;

Acts 17:28 For in him we live, and move, and have our being.....

Some churches do stand up comedy. They invite comedians from outside, and possible within the church to crack some jokes on the altar.. To me, stand up comedy in church is ungodly and a sign of disrespect of the sacredness of God's altar. It is a mockery of the sanctity of God's altar. You don't tell jokes with some lies on God's altar. The altar of God is not for caricature, but for holy things that are pleasing to God.

What is your view?

Nice reply,,,

But please can you quote anywhere in the Bible to butress your fact.

Judeoxide:

God condemned comedy in the Old Testament
But make we leave am there

I am not a preacher.

ogologoamu:


Ephesians 5:4
Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks.

FILTHINESS, FOOLISH TALKING AND JESTING (COMEDY) are not convenient but given of thanks is convenient.

You obviously read the Bible backwards.

The unsentimental, unbiased and realistic meaning of that text is that Filthiness, foolishness talking and jesting which are not important/necessary are not allowed; unless it is done to give thanks.
In other words, if they are convenient... necessary...or important, they are allowed as long as they portray or have the essence of Thanksgiving.
I am not even a fan of church comedy but alas! Let address the bible just as it is.

Pls Try to understand the scripture.

Vipro:
No wonder.

Lagosianswag:
That's okay if the jokes are clean.
It's the new age's way of making church going exciting.

Even Angels Laugh Over Good Funny Jokes.

AntiChristian:
Comedy that contains lies and untruths!

1. Indaboski

2. God drank tea with Daddy GO.

3. Fake miracle of the same arm in many churches.

Add yours!
