What's the difference between those that watch online and those that still goes to physical service but end up viewing the activities on screens fixed in the church due to distance from where you're seated and the altar?

Question should be: Why do you attend service and what are the impacts, effects and spiritual results in your life, lifestyle and your country at large?
Word, if pastors think it's not good why do they have TV channels to broadcast sermons

Watching online is better and also promoted modernization.

But the preachers will still fine a way to ask you to send your offerings to the account number on the screen.
Yes because churches need to pay maintenance costs, pastor salaries, sometimes pay for missionaries (one church I used to attend was sponsoring missionaries working in remote villages), or even pay for things like boreholes in places that need them (another church I attended had a pastor that loved doing that, and since it had a lot of rich people, who were game).

Also, physical or online worshipping is to pass a message and for the receiver to abide by the teachings.

Point is.... Since when we were kids and with all the lessons and preachings in both churches and mosques.... Why do we still have evil people doing evil to one another? Christians doing evil to Christians.... Muslims doing evil to their fellow Muslims.

But yet, if you don't go to church, you're the real evil person.
Because human beings do not follow instructions all the time.

Road safety has done a lot of driver education, made thousands of copes of the HIghway code available, and yet here in Abuja, people jump the red traffic light because.

People don't always listen to word. It is part of human nature. It does not mean the instructions are worthless. If I tell you to sleep eight hours a day, that it is good for your health, you have the right to tell me that you can't do that because you have some work to do in the night.

It is a deceit of the devil to think you can be watching online when you are not doing a shifting work like doctors or nurses. Satan will soon use that trick to make you becomes lukewarm and gets hold of you. If your main church is far, identify yourself or fellowship with your branch church close to you and if there is none, fellowship with other bible believing church near you.

Don't start what will open door of lukewarmness to your life. Stand against deceit of Satan. You can never have 100% concentration via online and network distruption will creep in to enjoin the flow. Watch against end time deceit of the devil, be on alert. Go to physical church except those in shift of core services like security of certain organizations, medics etc. who can watch online from their shift base and go to physical when not on shifts.

Never listen to those deceivers up there operating under worldly Spirit to speak on behalf of Satan the deceiver to put you into spiritual lukewarmness. Remember the word of Jesus, those that endure till end shall be saved. Be warned and be wise!
So your god lives in man made buildings and not in you?

There is nothing on earth in which online better than physical.

In as much online makes things far easier,but still far short of doing it physical.

And when COVID happened, did God also go on holiday since physical service got halted?.

Does it mean for 2 years, there were no more Christians and serving God stopped?

Free flow of the anointing... grin

Your mind is not sound enough tho

So you think not being physically present can stop anointing. a spiritual force ...

There are a lot of Nigerians who stays abroad that still worship online with their local churches here in Nigeria. And they stay blessed...
Na your mind no sound here grin
E look like you are a spiritual baby.
Come make a groom you.

Investing your personal self in self fasting of at least five days and studying the Bible and praying to GOD personally for spiritual understanding of the "WORD" is the only way to go if you want to be spiritually "Independent",it is time you all understand that a personal relationship with GOD is the only key removing the shackles of religious slavery from your mind.
That is how deceit of Satan starts thinking you can do it all alone fasting yourself, praying alone and studying bible alone. At the end of the day, you end up doing nothing and becomes spiritual cold and dead, then your fire quences and you become unwise virgins. Go to physical church. Read my other post up! Be warned and be wise!

Stop misinterpreting Bible for your own selfishness, Satan also knows Bible and quoted for Jesus when tempting him. Do not forsake the assembly of God's children so you can strengthen and encourage one another. Christians are the church not the building, don't forsake the assembly of other brethren. Apostles were meeting physically and regularly too to encourage themselves. Stop deceit of Satan in your life trying to deceive you and makes you spiritually dead and lukewarm in this end time. Be warned!

Physical church.

Much better.

The problem with online is that while you are watching the service, you are also distracted by opening websites and doing other things...and yes, one can doze off if sitting on a comfortable sofa.

Best to go to church

Right now, I am at home because the malaria got to me.
Well said bro

Stop behaving like a kid, there's no where you can't get your anointing, as long as you believe..

There are much more people who don't go to church and do way better than those who go to church, the only reason is because the one who doesn't go to church believe and have faith more than the one who goes to church...

huh

For me, I prefer physical, but believe me, this present economy with fuel ⛽️ situation restricted me this Sunday, to fuel my jalopy to and fro no easy again...

where do you guys belong?


@GRACEGLORY your TV 📺 I still dey enjoy am, kudos 👏
Both have their purpose.
There is a need to belong to a physical church where we identify with, fellowship together and worship God in Spirit and Truth.
Virtual fellowship is needful in circumstances where fellowshipping physically isn't possible.

To encourage themselves, why did they need encouragement? Was it because they were persecuted?

Not many people need to be encouraged to worship their God, not many people need encouragement.

If as a Christian after all the years of going to church I still need to be encouraged then I'm not serious.

I take the bible as a textbook, the church as a school.

There comes a time where you should graduate from that and focus on your life without making going to church a necessity.

I could remember back in those days before there were Smart phones, Gadgets and Smart screens,
they used to bash some of us Catholics for reading Bible verses from the bulletin.
They used to criticize Catholics and say that you must read directly from the Bible, that it carries special annointing.

But nowadays you see the same old critics dump their Bibles and are reading from their phones, gadgets and even big screens in the Church.
Lol.


So what changed?

Bible nor carry special anointing and grace againhuh

Abi technology sweet well wellhuh?

No mind them, they are all hypocrite

So was it Satan that was ruling in 2 years of COVID?

Did Christians stop being Christian for that 2 years?

Did God reduce in being God?

You guys are nothing but religious fanatics. You're far from God and never know God for yourself.

Tell me, who is Jesus Christ to you and what's your relationship with him?

How well do you know God for yourself outside what your pastors tell you?

How often do you study the Bible for understanding?

How many chapters of the bible have you been able to understand through the holy spirit without your pastors interpreting them for you?

God is not looking for religious people who think going to physical services makes them the children of God.

God is only looking for those who can house him within them.

If you don't house God in you, you're nothing but a jester.

They love to misinterpret the bible because they lack understanding. They don't know that you can only understand the bible through the holy spirit and by reading pretext and postext to understand the context of what is being read.

They were under serious persecution then, so they needed one another to encourage eachother and to know they are not alone.

Nigerian Christians (most) are follow follow.
