OP seems to be the person involved.

We should learn to obey instructions. The church wardens are there to organise and maintain order in the church. If you disobey them, you are disobeying the authority of the church.

Another church go welcome him with open arms

Paulpaulpaul:
Nonsense, if a SARS officer had asked him to change his seat won't he do just that? So, the priest has become his mate. Children that lack home training would be taught in a hardway outside

home training in church?
Are you okay?
The church warden is a foool for reporting sef
Everytime they be feeling like one almighty nonsense..
If the warden was polite enough
I'm sure the guy would have sat at the place shown to him by the warden

How A Young Man Was Sent Out Of Palm Sunday Mass

I was in church this morning for Palm Sunday mass(somewhere in Delta state). A young man walked into the church, he wanted to sit behind(where he finds comfortable). The wardens insisted he moved to the front, at his refusal they reported him to the priest who publicly disgraced this young man and asked him to leave the church before he starts the mass. Sadly the young man left.

Now you can imagine what this act must have done to this young man's perception of the church and God. What if he decides never to go to church again
I'm feeling really bad about this.

Better self.
Who going to church has actually help. He probably knew that churches propagate falsehood and intimidate the members to accept the fairytales of going to heaven and hell.
Let him come to Amadioha shrine for Sunday morning libations biko.
Let me vammose before they come for head biko

meobizy:
You should have protested by walking out of the mass.
Jesus never rejected anyone, why do churches feel big enough to do so?

This reminds me my days in Ibadan. I will go to church with the worst shoes on Earth, that was actually my best choe. I will be seating at the back, because I was ashamed of the shoes. Nobody knew my reasons.

midnighter:
That was how i left to another church because the _stupid usher kept hissing at me whenever I came in and tried to move to a seat of my choice

Why not be polite about it?

Mtchew

Lol...you shouldn't have left. Do it for 4 Sunday's and they gon let you be.

Just that next time you walk in, side talks like "see that arrogant girl ..stubborn spoilt child...inconsiderate troublesome girl " will be gossiped amongst the ushers.

Heard those but couldn't beat the sh!t outta them.. I go Church to worship God no be to beat some ushers

I felt you are giving incomplete reports of what went down.

Paulpaulpaul:


In any organization there are rules and regulations which every member must abide by. Nobody fought him, a suggestion was made, "Change your seat or leave the church" and the proud guy that could not obey simple church rule left. So, what is the fuss about?


His perspective may be positive or negative, he should deal with it. I have a Ph.D as an usher in my church and one jambite will be doing anyhow. Nonsense

Where in the post did the op said the priest ask him to change his seat or leave?

You people will just twist words to suit yourself.
The man maybe wrong for not following instructions but if the priest knows how to communicate with human, telling him to leave before he continues the mass shouldn't have been an option.

I think preist, pastors should also learn how to communicate with people, you're not doing them a favour, you're marketing the word of God to this people, you want to win souls for God, same thing good marketers do, they have good communication skills.

The priest lack one.

See this:

His phone rang in church by accident during prayers.

The Pastor scolded him.

The worshippers admonished him after prayers for interrupting.

His wife kept on lecturing on his carelessness all the way home.

His co-vineyard workers shook their heads in disgust

You could see the shame, embarrassment and humiliation on his face.

He never stepped foot in the church again.

That evening, he went to a bar.

He was still nervous and trembling.

He spilled his drink on the table, bottle falls by accident and it splashed on some people.

Those it touched rushed towards him. He closed his eyes expecting bashing of words or slaps.

Instead they cared to know if he didn’t get a cut from the broken bottle.

The waiter apologized and gave him a napkin to clean himself.

The janitor mopped the floor.

The female manager offered him a complimentary drink.

She also gave him a huge hug and a peck while saying, "Don't worry man. Who doesn't make mistakes?"

He has not stopped going to that bar since then.

#Lesson

Sometimes our attitude as believers drives souls to Hell.

You can make a difference by how you treat people especially when they make mistakes.

* IF you cannot be a bridge to connect people, then do not be a wall to separate them.

* IF you cannot be a light to brighten people's good deeds then do not be darkness covering their efforts.

* IF you cannot be water to help people's crops sprout, then do not be a pest destroying their crops.

* IF you cannot be a vaccine to give life, do not be a virus to terminate it.

* IF you cannot be a pencil to write anyone's happiness, then try to be a nice eraser to remove their sadness.

We can always be each others keeper, let us resolve to heal the world and make it a better place. Yes, we can.

All this doting epistle you wrote here is what the devil wants for the church. The church is a place of rebuke and discipline plus love. If anyone leaves church because of a simple correction, then it is his choice if he ends with satan his master in hell.

The church cannot bow to the looseness that this new generation clamour for. They either bend and be a part, or break off and be doomed. Say no to bullying the church!!!!!!

Don't be among people that are adding to the problem of this country.. if it was to be at the embassy would he be arguing with the moderator on where he would sit or queue after instruction had being giving? Charity begings at home. Let him go, next time he would have what its called public etiquette... (Lobish) in our brothers tongue.

The church is not to be blame because when you say church in Catholic doctrine we're the church so the fault is from the priest and that priest have personal issues, mind you the Catholic church has so many priests and they all have their different backgrounds before becoming a priest.

The priest didn't do right by sending the guy out of the church and the guy should have just obeyed, the priest may be disciplined and what that to serve as a punishment which was not right.

The congregations should call the priest to order and the boy can also file a report against the priest because no one has the right to send you out of the Church because the church is owned by no one, the only reason that might may anyone send you out can be your immoral dressing or behavior seducing others in God's house.

Why is it that most people that come very early to some churches always abandon the front seats and the ushers won't say anything or even insist they sit at the front seats but they will expect the late comers to take over the front seats? It isn't right. If u come early to church,always sit at the front while the late comers sit behind. It reduces distractions when anybody comes in in the course of the service.

The Word of GOD is not a product that you market. Please correct the nonsense you wrote up there. The Word is preached, simple! If you heed, good for you. If you don't, your funeral. Don't support insolence.

Lol no i didnt just storm out...this happened over an extended period until i got tired of their _stupid attitude and stopped coming

The whole vibe of that church wasnt nice

The priest kept complaining that people's offering wasnt enough, that we know that his salary is low. Making people stand up to come and pledge

All the kids and young people were at the back making noise and barely listening...once a guy sitting behind me started asking me for my number

It just wasnt my type of place

he didn't come to church, if not what is wrong with following simple instruction.lets assume something is wrong with that seat he will go seat there and get himself injured. And also remember there should orderliness in the house of God.

Well said

Who says God stays at the front of the church? Didn't you know that God is omnipresent?[/quote]

But thats like punishing people for coming on time... people who come early should be able to sit where they like, no?

You're the one saying nonsense mister.

Every field have the terms they use.

Doctors, engineers etc have the kind of words they use that is only related to their own field.

For the church the use the word preaching, does your teacher preach? Naa he teach.

When we talk about winning souls for christ, what does the preacher does? Tell people the wonders of God and how he will save them, what does a marketer does?

Tell people the important of a product and how it will be of benefit to them.

So if you understand good for you, if you still don't, your funeral 1diot.

The priest had the audacity to send the man away because he felt there are numerous members in his congregation.

No problem, you guys should not step leg in church again because u were being corrected. Such can happened I don't see big deal in it. u are not doing God, he does not need our prayers neither does he needs populations in heaven to vote him into power. He reings forever. Lol...

You think If the usher was holding a gun the man wouldn't have obeyed without even looking at his face?

You think if the priest was holding a gun he wouldn't have gun him down instead of sending it out?

We are not talking about people holding guns here, that soldiers, SARS etc you're talking about, if they don't hold guns the so called bloody civilians will deal with them seriously too but that's not the issue here.

I'm not even talking about the man disobeying the usher I'm more concerned about the priest telling him to leave before he could continue the mass.

Salvation is a personal choice.
If someone rejects Christ, it's his business.
There must be order in church.
The Catholic Church is a church of rules, which have kept the Church going for centuries.
If he thinks he is too big to be controlled in the House of God, then he is a joker.
What does it cost to respect Church wardens, biko?
For Christ's sake, you can only be in church for a few hours and leave...you won't live there forever
I must commend that priest for his courage.

Bros have you thought of the fact that some people are uncomfortable sitting at the front and as well might not give needed attention to the word if God.
All my schooling days right from primary sch, I stayed at the back seat and always come out best of my class, maybe if my teachers had insisted I stay at the front seat, the story might not have been same. Even in church I prefer back seat and that does not make me less of a Christain.
The priest did wrong by sending him out unless there is something else missing in the story.

If he leave the church because one priest say he should leave that is quite a pity because knw priest have the right to ask anybody to leave the church, the church belong to the people not the priest
