Why Do Some People Worship At Multiple Churches? by Nobody: 11:08am On Jul 01, 2018 |
Once again, I'll use my folks as a case study. In order for you to understand certain things, let me drop this information. A couple of years ago, my father left Israel(after years of sojourn) back to Nigeria. His quest for greener pastures in that country was a terrible decision. Well, since then, it's been one church or the other, preferring to blame the spiritual for physical problems. I've attended basically every denomination in this country courtesy my folks. I'm Catholic by birth, still am and so are my folks. The crazy part is, once a week, they package white garments procured and head to a Celestial church for 'prayers '. It is sickening. If I was God, I'd be irritated. As a result of this, my faith has taken a downward spiral. They have evolved into paranoid Christians. Just this morning, they berated me for ignoring morning masses and choosing evening masses instead. The hypocrisy is head spinning. Why do people go to several churches? What exactly are they looking for? Yoruba people say 'What you go looking for in Sokoto, is right there in your sokoto (pocket). |

Christianity is the one true religion; so, attending many churches doesn't matter. |

Some of them would leave church on Sunday and visit babalawo too looking for solution to their problems. Then they will tell me to accept Jesus into my life! |

Mosque is mosque whether it's in north west south or east... But churches are not the same coz almost all of them have different doctrines.. So worshipping in different churches isn't ideal.. 1 Like |

SHOULD WE REMAIN LOYAL to OUR
DENOMINATION.
do you feel guilty for leaving your former church? do
you feel like you betrayed your former pastor?
SHOULD WE REMAIN LOYAL to OUR
DENOMINATION.
Many ofus have this belief that our denomination is
the surest way to heaven. All denomination have
great potentials and play important role in
improving ones spiritual life. Each denomination
focuses on certain values at the expense of others
and are therefore more suited for certain individuals
deficient in such value.
.Some denomination focuses on dogmas and rules.
others focus on ethical teaching. No one is superior
to the other. They all serve same purpose in
different ways. Each denomination promotes one
virtue at the expense of the other. While some
churches prefers to stabilize the world by keeping
to ancient traditions, laws and order, others focuses
on improving faith among members. If we examine
very well, certain churches seems to attract certain
kinds of elders or workers . Those who are fun-
loving and opened minded and dislike rules make
up the living faith church and Christ embassy. . The
perfectionist who love arguing and seek to correct
interpretation of biblical teachings flood Jehovah
witness. Those who are reliable,responsible, rigid to
standard principles while transacting business, not
prone to certain outburst of anger, old fashioned,
and cautious financially are workers in deeper life
church or assembles of GOD. THOSE WHO ARE
OBEDIENT to ancient traditions, FOLLOWS
STRUCTURE, LOYALty to ancient tradition are
catholics or Anglican(. this stereotype is not
hundred percent accurate)
Each church is like a drug to cure us of certain
ailment. NO matter how strong an anti-biotic drug
is, it can not be used to cure malaria.IN addition,
the dosage required for a kid differs withthat of an
adult.An undisciplined funloving individual may
dislike deeper life or catholic church for being
boring and too methodolical wheareras such person
is supposedto develop in such area.instead he
prefers to attend a church that promotes fun and
places less emphases on laws such as Christ
embassy.
It is adviseable to maintain ones church while
learning certain spiritual values from others. One
can also engage in inter-faith dialogue with other
denomination
A mathematics expert did not learn using one
textbook only. He started with one text book, then
tried others until he is able to solve equations
without consulting any of the textbook
Like one learning to drive, he must first handle the
steering in the presence of a tutor. As he improves,
he no longer needs the tutor presence tp drive.he
can drive alone. He doesn’t need to get stuck to
that tutor.the more he inproves, the more he can try
another tutor to learn a different style of driving. His
ultimate aim is to be able to drive so well that he
no longer needs a teacher. Aone learning to walk
throws away the crutches once he has reached
perfection THE AIM OF any church is to improve
ones spiritual life. Sticking to one denomination that
is not improving one spiritual level is not
adviseable. wemust not remain loyal to individuals
or organisation for they are prone to change. only
remain loyAL To principles Foodforthought 1 Like |
