Effects Of Cashless Policy On The Church by Omooba77: 7:55am On Apr 02, 2023
During the Cashless policy and ban on the old notes.
Some of the things I observed happened to the Church;
- Attendance dropped because many people living far, couldn't make it to Church.
- Offering and contributions reduced due to failed transactions.
- Many people that get helps in form of welfare couldn't get much.
- During service, some people that managed to trek distance, usually dose or sleep during service because of tiredness.
- Anger and frustration can be seen on most faces.
In all things we are Survivors, we bless God we came out of this ill thought policy.

Many churches got moniepoint POS for contributions....


Anyway, I can't remember the last time I went to church.

The fraudsters calling themselves pastors are irredeemably jobless and depend fully on Sunday offerings to pay their children school fees and feed for the week!

And church isn't a free entry and exit!


I've been stranded before on a travel and I located a church to sleep over the night, I was denied access!

Church is opened on days designed to extort money from gullible followers! And close when the time elapsed!

jesusjnr2020:
If You End Up In Hell Fire, Who Would You Blame?

Humans generally have the tendency to apportion blame to others for their own mistakes.

Instead of taking responsibility for them, they were quick to find someone else to blame.

Some are quick to even blame the devil when caught in the act, even though the devil cannot force them to do anything without their own consent.

This tendency, they seemed to have inherited from their foremost ancestors, Adam and Eve, who after eating the forbidden fruit which God commanded them not to eat were blaming someone else for their own error, with Adam blaming "the woman" while Eve "the woman" blamed "the serpent"... Genesis 3:12-13

So sadly it seems humans have not yet learnt from the errors of the first humans on earth, as they're still playing the blame game up til date, so they were bound to continue repeating the same mistakes they made instead of repenting from them, which however comes with serious eternal consequences, for "the wages of sin is death..." Romans 6:23

Hence the question, who would you blame if you end up in hell fire?

As for me, I would only have myself to blame because if after God has done everything thing He could to ensure I don't end up in hell fire but have eternal life, I still managed to end up there for whatever possible reason I could conjure, it could only be my own fault and no one else, because no one, not even the devil, could force me to reject life and choose death without my consent.

God bless.

I'll blame the same God that brought me to this world without my permission

It didn't really have a negative effect on my own church as most people resolved to online offering and there were no glitches in bank transfers that period as the few times I did, it always went through .

For me, it was fairly bearable as I didn't get to feel the cash crunch that much cos I always go to meet the church for cash while I do a transfer of the money to the church s account. So it really helped me a lot and reduced the number of times I bought cash from the POS operators who were exploiting people that period.

Thank God for the Church for coming through for it's members that period.

Some churches can actually allow you sleep normally church is not a hotel or a place to pass the night...but you dont know the reason why that particular church didn't allow you then because of one church you get emotional for nothing?

Church is a free entry and exit meaning both saved and unsaved can go there..yes there are fake pastors and churches but dont becaus of one experience now talk like a little child.

You keep taking excuses for this churches why they keep using your brain.

I was stranded.... And there was no vehicle to take me to the town and the only hope I had was the church..... I was denied access to sleep. What if I got attacked and killed?

I have many experiences with the church! And I can conclude that there is no love in the church!

In Nigeria, churches are built to collect from the people!

You can foolishly quote me again since you're not making use of your brain. Afterall, today's Sunday and your pastor needs your brain to wash and rinse.... Tomorrow you need to go out and talk about your pastor instead of God!

It actually reduced attendance and offering. All in all, those without cash can attend nearby churches.

You can still pay your tithes & offerings by Transfer.

Even during COVID-19 lockdown, some still went ahead to create USSD to collect offerings, firstfruits etc. cheesy

How much more when there's no lockdown grin
