WHEN THE CHURCH BECOMES A BUSINESS

1) Pastors function like CEOs
2) Members are turned into customers
3) Other churches are seen as competitions
4) Evangelism is reduced to marketing
5) Church planting looks more like franchising.

6) Numbers are primary measure of success
7) Prayer and Word study are replaced by formulas
Revival is reduced to a few days fund-raising
program
9) Preaching sounds more like motivational speech. All the people do is shout "I receive, Amen," throughout the concert. I mean the "service".

10) Praise and Worship is turned into a
performance. The best actors are made the worship and praise leaders.
11) The Spirit of God is reduced to "emotionalism". No real power of God other than hypnosis and sensationalism.

12) The saints are entertained instead of equipped
13) Disciples of Christ have become papa's sons, daughters and fans.
14) The Church, a living Body has now become a lifeless body
15) A leader's empire is built instead of the
Kingdom of God advanced
16) The pastor becomes the super man and Jesus Christ reduced to just another religious figure.

Mabizeka:
Your churches in the US pays taxes over there but you don't pay it in Nigeria. why?

Basically and by divine design Nigerians are naturally stupid.
A man has used his sweat to create an empire in Christ
Build Universities without government influence
Employed lecturers in University
Employed teachers in primary and secondary schools.
Employed pastors in Church branches
But Nigerians still want him to be poor or should be giving them palliative
Some said the university is expensive but the want the lecturers not to go on strike and hotels and other amenities on the school to me of standard is the money going to come from heaven
The useless politicians they will line up in the sun and vote for will only give the 2k before election to spend for 4 years but is pastors that is there problem

edoairways:
It is not the responsibility of the church to build factories. Hold your politicians accountable instead of chasing shadows

Have you been to winners before? Some of you will be talking rubbish without taking a step to verify them.
