There is too much distractions in church nowadays . You will just be seeing yansh going up and down . Anyone trying to cut some bad behaviour and wants rest with fellowship after being bombarded with these things Monday to friday will fail and will keep getting distracted. The church should be a place where worldly distractions are discouraged so people can truly listen and stay on the path of salvation . People should dress modestly to church . The idea is to focus on your spiritual growth rather than outward appearance . Now should you dress shabbily? No . But if as you are dressing , you want to slay or look amazing for people to admire , you are not going to church to grow . You are just going for a social outing |

thinkmoney:Through our words and actions, God knows who is His own. Whether you wear trouser, leave your head open or cover it with scarf, God knows those that are worshiping Him in Spirit and in truth. I hate it when people try to point out or try to castigate the action of others because of their own definition of serving God. Sometimes, they even allow others influence how they respond to God. Meanwhile, your worship or service to God is a highly personal thing. |

sotall:Your thoughts, Now mine: even if 100% of churches are used for factories. Your government will pull it down! Ask yourself how many government owned institutions or factories still functions? The one individuals try to build they frustrate them with heavy tax levy. I live in a state where the government told a construction 🚧 company that wanted to base in Nigeria. 60/40. That is, government will own 40% and they 60% outrageous. Before innoson motors got a name in Nigeria, do you know the battles Your country doesn't like good things, the goal is to keep everyone pooor. So even if they change churches to factories, government will pull it down. Na me dey tell you. simple, so let's pray our way out instead. |

Yes the Holy Spirit, talks to us, i think i heard him call my name, one morning as i was waking up. God is always there. we would still make mistakes, but the bible advises us to not grieve the Spirit of God, by whom we are sealed until the day of salvation. I Think the the Spirit speaks to those people wearing inappropriate outfits, although they may not listen. Anyway Sometimes i don't want to disappoint God. Although I know He has done it all. I dont have the gift of speaking in tongues, and i dont pretend to have it. It is the Spirit who manages the gifts and gives it to who he chooses litigator: |

SeriouslySense:My brother/sister . God be with us all . I am a sapiosexual but I know how my African brothers get easily distracted and fascinated with yansh . Once I see I remove eyes because it doesn’t interest me . That’s how one media girl on camera stood in the middle of church auditorium on a podium with yansh elevated. There is no way if you are seated directly behind her that your view will not be in constant view of the yansh . Women church leaders should talk to the sisters to dress moderately . If men with 6 packs start going to church in body hugs now , they will understand how distracting their tight jeans and booty enhancing dresses are . |

Have you ever heard of, or worshipped with the Church of Christ? Find out about them. There's still a few out there who follow the Scripture. |

You better look for another church where you are convinced that they are following the scripture o. Don’t let them use modernization to drive you straight to hell, like some churches condone homosexuality. OluwaLina1: |

SeriouslySense:Yes . The church is like a hospital with all kinds of people trying to get better in life , spiritually etc Imagine a drug addict coming to church for salvation and what greets him is a tray of weed . Imaging a brother battling sexual immorality and whenever he comes to church na yansh just dey jiggle for his eyes . It is getting too much . How will he not backslide |

OluwaLina1:This is my response to you: 1. The white men that brought the gospel to you wore trousers both male & female. 2. Do you believe that God answers prayer because of your headtie or because you had no cap on? 3. Speaking in tongues is not modernization, it's in the Bible. 4. Members and men don't wear cap into church but the Bishop & Archbishop wears cap. 5. The white women don't wear headtie or scarf or veil because it's not their culture. 6. You made specific reference to the altar thereby restricting the presence of God to a particular location eg church or altar. God is everywhere. 7. There is no posture for prayer. |

Tzar:In Bible times, both men and women wore gowns and scarf don't misled him please. When David was dancing & they saw his unclothedness, it was because he wore a gown and NOT a trouser. |
