Why do many see Church as problem rather than solution?

if you choose to see the fault in something you will see, if you choose to see good in it you will.

Only the unbeliever and little faith see church has the problem

Because the church is diverting people from the main thing they have to do and make people look stupid and hypocrites.

Xi Jinping China President gave a more detailed explanation. See below

Honestly which solution has the church ever offered before one can even rate Western churches much more than the ones we have in Africa especially Nigeria because they carry out humanitarian services from time to time but the ones we have here are out to milk the poor congregation dry using the Bible as a cover up.

I always wonder if it's not the same Jesus Christ in the Bible they pretend to emulate yet they do things directly opposite what is clearly written in the same Bible.

Church doesn't let us bear responsibility of our irresponsible deeds. It takes d blames from us only to heap Dem on spirituality. How den do we improve and progress?

Let's say out of greed u hacked a brother or ur fellow human to death. Church will exornorate u from the crime, saying it's spiritual problem.

Wen u're sick, u're expected to take a healing oil from ur pastor which is not given on gratis(payable, not free). But wen d so called men of God fall sick, dey fly out of d country to seek excellent medical attention.

So tell me, isn't church our prime problem?

Nothing more than the lack of power in the church. In the days of the Master Jesus, you cannot encounter Jesus without something changing in your life. No power in the church again bro!!!!!

Unlike in the past where they participated in solving problems, now, they are the ones causing problems by lying and telling people what they want to hear because they don't want to lose members rather than say The Truth whilst doing their job.

The Chruch thrives on indoctrination and control.

The Chruch has refused to teach their followers how think for themselves, take responsibility for their actions and develop an open mind.

Instead, they force their followers to believe in an external power other than themselves.

The Church has refused to tell their followers the truth that -

Wetin you de find for sokoto, has always been inside your sokoto.

One major reason I figured out is lack of emphasy on the state of the human spirit. If they follow the spirit trail of Gods word and not the physical body, there will be greater appreciation of the what a true church of Christ attempts to offer them.
The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak.

Regardless:


Nothing more than the lack of power in the church. In the days of the Master Jesus, you cannot encounter Jesus without something changing in your life. No power in the church again bro!!!!!

and if I may ask, who bestowed the responsibility of Jesus solely on church leaders? Every Christian is suppose to be Christlike and not just the pastor. If your faith in God through Jesus is alive, pastors cannot deny you an encounter for long.

Stop generalizing all churches and pastors.

Stop generalizing when talking what you know not. Same bible that asked the church to be charitable also admonished that the right hand shouldn't know what the left hand is doing. It means your charitable deeds need not be publicized.
For the fact that a church preaches a doctrine is clear indication it could be practicing same.

Most churches today do not follow bible commands their pastor bends it to what wil favour them, they often turn churches to places of motivational speech, some even go to the extend of inviting gross sinners, etc comedians, musicians, politicians to church to officiates in some ways. Even the immoral practices of such pastors are not left out. With this and more people see churches as a problem which am one of such people

Stop saying what u don't knw.
Ignoramus people generalize things, what of those pastors advising their memebers to go to the hospital for treatment and they will be helping them with prayers and bills in the church.

Always, whether even when the Truth shall be unpleasant to its consumers.
