Why Did You Stop Attending Church Service? by AFONAMARO: 10:02am On Oct 03, 2021 |
Church dropouts, at what point did you know/feel that you'd be dropping out? And what eventually made you drop out from attending church? For me, immediately I understood that parishes are given target of an amount (akawo collections) to return to the Diocese on monthly basis, I knew it was time. When I learnt that special registers are kept for tithers and their names published (more like naming and shaming) at the end of a period, couple with the fact that religious leaders do not appear at funeral of their non-financial committed members. And finally, when the Priest told me that I'd pay him for marriage counseling, fuel the church generator and give envelops to all the Priests, present on my wedding day. I knew I had to praise God from my house. What made you stop attending Sunday Service? 5 Likes |

. And finally, when the Priest told me that I'd pay him for marriage counseling, fuel the church generator and give envelops to all the Priests, present on my wedding day. I knew I had to praise God from my house. I should fuel the Church generator when the Church will still collect offering that day. I'd rather take my bride and meet a traditionalist to conjugate our union than doing all these rubbish! 3 Likes |

They are all entrepreneurs. They hammer on winning souls when it really meant winning new tithe-and-offering candidates. Why does tithe and offering have many branches? First seed? Children offering? Sunday school offering? Deliverance package? Bazzar? Harvest? First offering? Second offering? Mass offering? Offering for elderly person? Givers Never Lack Time? Haba! Na so Jesus do? E come bi like say na offering I come this life come do. Little wonders a church sacked its pastor not bringing returns on investment. In Catholic, people go dey inside church dey bid who go donate pass! Is it a competition? Pastor dey compel you to ask God for protection but police dey escort am for back! Pastor dey say givers never Lack but e no dey give you. So e wan lack? Pastor go collect from you and ask you to pray to God when you need. Harvest time. Pastor go dey fry your chicken, you mumu pro max go dey drink garri. Pastors go dey share your tithes and offering dey use am dey sponsor their kids and their house project. You dey ask God when! By the way, all of them preach hellfire to instill fear...which is not even biblical. Everybody wan go heaven but nobody know wetin dem go do there. So, I got sense! God will be surprised at who sent some pastors! Remove tithes and offering from religion. Some people wey say God call dem go say na missed call. 4 Likes |

AFONAMARO Do no follow men Follow God as the spirit leer you. Christianity is a personal race. Christianity is a your personal relationship with Him. I could say more to you, but you did well to spot their fakeness. Pray in your house. |

I just don't have interest in going anymore. Rather than organized religion, I'm turning to spirituality. 1 Like 1 Share |

It's a long story my brother. But ever since I started my quiet time with God, my soul, spirit and personality have been transformed, a kind of feeling I hardly have when I attended church. Not fellowshipping with other believers is bad but it's your personal encounter with God that matters. Besides, Christianity In Nigeria is not encouraging. |
