Things are hard. People are out to make a living by all means. When my church introduced the welfare thing too, the number grew.

There should be more outreach to help the needy.

Yes. When you refused to help your neighbors, but prefer to give your resources to your already wealthy Pastor’s, so whenever the Pastors want to give a small percentage of their wealth to camouflage, your poor neighbors will come to your church

If there are more nonmembers in church on such Sundays, then the aim of soul winning has been achieved. But if you have only irregular members attending, the outreach has not achieved what it's set out for. Hence, it's expected that more people will attend church on such Sundays

I'm broke and depressed, can't live any longer.
Being born in Nigeria is my greatest undoing.
I cursed the day I am born into this world.

Why is life so difficult and so unfair for a common man. I can't even feed, don't have what to eat and always struggle to afford food.
It's better to die, at least all pains and poverty will be gone.
All friends and family that refuse to help me while alive will be able to do fake love.

There is no God.
There is no karma
If there's God, bad people will not be enjoying while morally upright persons will be suffering.

I am really suffering

And what is wrong with that?

For some, it's welfare, for others it is something else. We all have our peculiar needs.

And if you think about it, this ritual of attending churches has persisted over centuries because it is a mandated prerequisite to save our souls from eternal damnation.

Remove this fundamental caveat and watch it crumble to its knees.

Nothing bad in it.

If God blesses the church well, they should nurture their members both spiritually and physically.

some goto check what is the latest fashion.

Yes now, though not all, some are known flying witches in the social circle of such characters but are still choristers in church. They need the welfare until they hammer and hit bit. The church is also a scouting ground for whom can be attacked spiritually. Dogs don't eat dogs so need who to eat.

That's how it supposed to be not the other way round. Feed my sheep. Jesus fed 5000men many times.

Pastors should stop using the money meant for the poor to enrich themselves buying Jets.

Most People don't care about God or even fear him. It is one of the signs of the last days, that men will love themselves more than God. I have witnessed the same thing my church too, anytime they want to share earthly things: all our seats will be occupied. We wey be real members go come take standing.
Re: Are People Only Coming To Church For Welfare Mostly? by OboOlora(f): 9:17am On May 07, 2023
Absolutely!!!
Especially the recent Nigerian migrants in the UK, you will see them storming naija churches for free food bank, clothes bank and opportunity to meet people that own care homes that can give them sponsorship 😂
