Why I Stopped Going To Church – Falz Explains by Bigmugu: 9:58am On Jan 19, 2019
Popular Nigerian singer, Falz, has explained why he stopped going to church.

During the release of the much-anticipated album, ‘Moral Instruction,’ Falz’s mother complained about her son not attending church services.

Femi and Funmi Falana were present during their son’s ‘album listening party’.

During the event, his mother used the opportunity to express her concern about the fact that her son hardly goes to church.

Speak about his new album, Funmi said, “Folarin, you don’t go to church and I am bothered. I hope you would start going to church this year.”

The singer told Vanguard that his mother was right because he hardly went to church.

He said, “I have nothing against the church or going to church; everyone has the right to practice the religion they desire but personally, as a Christian, it has been a while that I have been to church. It does not make me less of a Christian.

“The most important thing is spirituality and your personal connection with God. The reason I haven’t attended a church service in a long while is because I went to a few churches and during sermons, I was put under undue pressure. There was a time that a pastor called me to the altar just to acknowledge my presence for being in church.

“In my mind, I felt that the service was not about me. I felt that everybody was there to worship God, yet they were putting undue pressure on me. The pastor gave me the microphone to address the congregation and I was puzzled; what did he expect me to say to the congregation? These are some of the issues.

“I just want to go to church and worship God like a regular member of the congregation. I do not want that kind of attention. I was hoping that I would go to church on a Sunday and it would not be like any other day I’m at a public place or doing a show,” the singer said.

On why he shaved off his beard, Falz added, “I did not shave my beard because of the album; it was just a coincidence. I was filming a project in relation to the album and I had to look a lot younger and that is why I shaved off my beard.

“I have been getting mixed reactions since I shaved my beard; some people tell me, ‘please, go and find our beard back’. I did not know that we owned the beard together. Other people told me that they love the new look and I am still a ‘sweet boy’ with or without the beard.”

The Christian church is, simply, and quite bluntly, a condominium where con men rip off unsuspecting gullible folks. And guess what, it's TAX FREE.

I know of only one church which does not care about who is rich or poor.
Everybody sits on thesame bench. Everybody is given thesame spritual instructions. They don't beg you for Tithe. You can attend in slippers or Gucci shoes. The door is always open. The ushers will never drag you to any seat. If you like sit at the front, if you like sit at the back.
The pastor is not worhipped. He only wears one cloth. He doesn't have house in any village and no personal property. You attend the Church to worship God. If you like pay attention, if you like be browsing your phone. The pastor will only let you know, that exactly what you reap on earth here is what you will sow. If you have spiritual problems, go and see him. He is only a vessle of God. He does not collect money for anything and at any time, the Bishop can remove him from that church and send to another church without any notice. Church is not his property. It is God's property.
