Because the church today is not functioning in it fullness.some church focus only on the word.while some focus only on holiness.while some focus only on prophecy .while some focus only on prosperity.while some focus only on healing .while others only on miracles.Another on deliverance.That was never the plan of God for the church.God want his church to flow on all this at the same time .don't just focus on one area and neglect the other.preach the word of holiness and prosperity,then go ahead to heal the sick ,cast out demons and give prophecy to those that need directions.

Enough of break away churches. There are over 46,000 broken away churches. Trace your root back to the original church. It requires much humility and acceptance . That church is very much here in Nigeria and worldwide.

Because the devil and the gates of hell will shake you whenever you attempt to worship God in spirit and truth. Satan worship has been indigenous to Earth like forever. It's either that or death. grin

If you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, "be uprooted and plant yourself in the sea" and it will do it.
This is what Jesus tells us.

But people spend a lot of time in places worshiping THE PASTOR.

They quote Bible left and right. But I never heard anyone quote Jesus Christ himself from Mathew, Mark, Luke and John.
-
In summary, they have no faith in Jesus Christ.

Oga, Biblical claims aren't true in real life

Yes, the bible promised anyone with faith as small as mustard seed can move a mountain but real life shows a faith the size of a mountain can't move a mustard seed unless the person uses his hands to move the seed himself or someone else does it for him

Africa is a complex place to practice true Christianity. If you don't have backup they go quench you. Even the so called over spiritual people that do not go to herbalist have evil powers that they use to disturb others.. So make all of us they deceive ourselves na God go judge the matter.. .

I worship the true living God who never fails and has never failed me. So you're wrong.

Besides, satan has no real power, just like darkness is the absence of light, so is satan. SIN is a reproach and it's like being under a shadow, the shadow of God's protection and the rule is not to sin, when you do, you're temporarily away from it, but this is actually an illusion on your side, cos you're not, however your view is limited and one may think he is. Inpatient people that don't want to ask for forgiveness and get back to God's fold will now wallow in darkness, looking for other powers.

God owns ALL powers, it's all about approach, distortions etc

The real hypocrites are Muslims like u on nairaland; who comment freely on Christian threads but require non Islamists to swear allegiance possibly with even an isis flag before I can comment on Muslim threads.

God is a perfect God.. What do I mean... His dictates.. His ordinances...his ways are not the ways of man...his being perfect can mean alot...that is why we have atheists....peiple who can't understand God... And decided to be on their own.....
Back to the topic.... Why people go to herbalists....seeking solutions is simply because they don't know who God is....they need answers fast.... Or want to see the plans of God... These set of people are not called Christians but Atheists pretending to be Christians

WILL HE DESTROY BH OR FULANI HERDSMEN IF YOU ASK HIM TO? WILL HE ERADICATE ALL THESE DISEASES AND POVERTY IF YOU ASK HIM TO?

IT'S EITHER HE ENJOYS HIS CHILDREN BEING SLAUGHTERED MERCILESSLY, OR HE'S INCAPABLE OF SOLVING ANY PROBLEMS.

NOTHING FAILS LIKE YOUR GODS. YOU KNOW THIS. THAT'S WHY YOU ONLY ASK FOR THE SIMPLEST THINGS THAT CAN BE DONE BY MAN SUCH AS PASSING EXAMS, GETTING JOBS, OR STOPPING A HEADACHE... YOU NEVER ASK FOR THE COMPLICATED THINGS LIKE FIXING A DECAPITATED, DISEMBOWELED OR AMPUTATED HUMAN BEING BECAUSE YOU KNOW DEEP DOWN IT CANNOT WORK.

NO AMOUNT OF PRAYERS CAN SAVE A MAN WHO DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO SWIM FROM DROWNING IN THE ATLANTIC.
NO PRAYERS CAN CURE CANCER, SICKLE CELL, OR STOP A GUNMAN FROM KILLING HUNDREDS OF INNOCENT CIVILIANS.
TONS OF PRAYERS FROM ROAD USERS EVERYDAY AGAINST ACCIDENTS.... IF YOU LIVE CLOSE TO A HOSPITAL, THE EMERGENCY SIRENS AND WAILING OF WOUNDED PEOPLE AND RELATIVES OF DEAD PERSONS IS ENDLESS.

WHAT WE NEED IS TO STOP LIVING IN IGNORANCE AND DENIAL OF THE BASIC TRUTH THAT THE GODS ARE NOTHING BUT IDEAS MADE UP BY MEN AGES AGO... AND PRAYERS ARE WORTHLESS.
TALKING TO YOURSELF (PRAYING) HAS NEVER AND CAN NEVER SOLVE A THING.

Simply put lack of faith while to make their supplication to God. God's way is not human way, remember..... They want magic, immediate solution but God's modus operandi is not that, if He will perform miracle, it MAY not be immediately, He will do it at His own time.

Omooba77:
Why do people go other places like herbalists and palm readers; even after praying in church?
Is it lack of faith?

You should NEVER, EVER go to Native doctors, spiritualists or a certain class of "churches" for solutions. God answers EVERY (ALL) prayers.

It is ignorance and narrow mindedness that causes lack of patience which leads to the greatest sin of idolatry. Going to juju is idolatrous.

The only interest for the devil is for you to break the first commandment. He will then give you a fake solution of the one that God proposed for you at birth.

Anytime Juju seems to work for you, know that God already had that blessing for you before ceation itself. Everybody who becomes rich by doing juju was meant to be rich by God but he has now sold his soul to get the fake of what was his anyway. That is spiritual ope, mugu, ode, dindinrin, goat. God will turn his back immediately, then watch out for such a person's wife, kids, family for a few generations.

It is not funny. Black people especially are going through a cleansing face with Church revival in this church age. We should help each other financially through the church to prevent "weak" and "stupid" members of the body of Christ exchanging eternal gold for temporary sand because of impatience.

Simple!
God does not answer prayers because he does not exist.
98% of prayers are not answered, even those that seems are answered are as a result of hardwork and some babalawo prophets.

Speaking in tongue without charity is just like a sounding cymbal. And trust me it is very disturbing to the ears and will make you complain endlessly if it won't stop. Now that's hell fire on earth (wailing and gnashing of teeth).

I wasn't wrong. I am not also judging you. I only said the truth (light). So you can use it to see where you are at.

Christians or believers are often prosecuted by the law which can not be kept, thereby condemning them to death. This is when they are tempted to seek alternative help.
Isn't that right?
