Azibalua:Seems you just came here to argue. A sane government knows that church buildings really do not have any benefit aside where people worship. The only way church buildings can be opened in a pandemic of a communicable disease is if they are made isolation Centers. People cannot do without food and money but people can do without church buildings. 1 Like |

HedwigesMaduro: Point is places of worship should open up so that the church can congregate to fellowship, to worship, to praise God.. Hebrews 10:25 Good News Translation Let us not give up the habit of meeting together, as some are doing. Instead, let us encourage one another all the more, since you see that the Day of the Lord is coming nearer. Its important that the church congregates together.. |

Petrall:oya na since u cant effectively evangelize without a large gathering in the church and the government told u not to preach the gospel and God will support that in the midst of this troublesome spread of virus that u should defy the government health regulations. Go and open up ur church |

Azibalua:Spirits don't die, we exist forever. I'm talking about physical death, okay. You are in a physical world, so focus more on your physicality. Church is not even offering any meaningful spiritual value, because even Jehovah the god of the church is currently in a spiritual cage. |

zionmde: Its beyound evangelisation.. The church gathering affords people to hear the word, fellowship together in the name of Jesus Jesus went to the synagogue.. |

ThinkFreely: The biggest benefit you have just piinted out.. *where people worship GOD* Thats the biggest benefit Even the workd health organksation knows the importance of prayers Read their Ogas recent statement.. |

Azibalua:A place where people stay in one space for long. I go think with my belly, I have been alive because of food for more than 20 years, and during the cause of that period I have equally being alive for 10 years without going to church. Common sense suppose tell you which of them is really important to someone using his head. |

Petrall:God's word is freely available in the Bibles which can be purchased in the markets for those who really care to obtain a copy fo their own souls good. Your church buildings are merely social businesses with God's name appended. These businesses are registered to the government and so required to obey government authority, along with every other business entity out there. |

Azibalua:I will never under score the importance of gathering. Nothing can replace d gathering of d saints but it's gross ignorance making d lockdown all about d government fighting d church. ur president is a staunch Muslim, and Muslims take going to mosque far more serious dan Christians take going to church. so for him to allow the lockdown of d mosques it must be serious USA dat announced dat churches should reopen, how are they faring now? are they not contemplating another total lockdown? wisdom is the principal thing |
Re: Why Are Churches Still Closed Or Partially Open And Markets Open by Kobojunkie: 6:53pm On Jul 03, 2020 |
Azibalua: The reason the markets are overcrowded yet again is the people making the choice to flout social distancing laws that are in place. There ignorance is not then sufficient reason to demand government remove all restrictions in place. Remember something else, Nigerias healthcare system is still one where the patient is responsible for 100% of cost of care. So should any of those person's in the markets fall victim to Covid-19, that victim bears the cost. That said, government can at least work on that which it controls and that is the businesses which it licenses in its attempts at continuing to manage or control the situation. |

ThinkFreely:Dont expose your ignorance sir. What about religious tourism, Lagos state is profiting for years bcoz of TB Joshua church, it is not economic value? Covenant university, a church arm, doesnt add any value to Nigeria economy? All the big events organized by churches in stadium, arena etc...they are not adding value? or do u think the gospel is only for heaven with no impact here on earth? |

zionmde: The are faring very well for your information.. if the models had been correct there would have been millions of deaths Theres no sane reason why the church should be closed and markets open..at least think small... |
Re: Why Are Churches Still Closed Or Partially Open And Markets Open by Azibalua(f): 9:53pm On Jul 04, 2020 |
Kobojunkie: They are only registered because the laws of the land requires it.. but the church belongs to God.. Its his church.. not your own |

Re: Why Are Churches Still Closed Or Partially Open And Markets Open by zionmde: 1:56am On Jul 05, 2020 |
Azibalua:if the models has been correct indeed who modelled it? or are u listening to the pastor telling u dat if not for his prayers millions will be dropping dead in africa. my dear daily new cases in USA are almost doubling up. Dont forget wen u open church, u open mosque, for thoose people dat worship movies, u open cinemas and other social activities. I wonder why u guys wont channel ur prayers to asking God to wipe away this evil virus. Lest i forget, most of ur pastors call it plandemic, so i wonder wat the will be telling their members |
Re: Why Are Churches Still Closed Or Partially Open And Markets Open by Petrall: 3:21am On Jul 05, 2020 |
zionmde: It’s not about evangelism . It’s about Gathering to worship God . A church is a Physical gathering Matthew 18:20 20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them. 1 Corinthians 5:4 4 In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, |

zionmde: I wonder what you will tell Jesus . If you were around in the days of Goliath I wonder what you would have counseled David . “ BE WISE DAVID, WE ALL READ THE BIBLE” HIDE LIKE EVERYONE” WE KNOW GOD SAID HE WILL GIVE US THE LAND “ LET PANDEMIC GOLIATH GO FIRST”. |

Petrall:Yeah physical gathering, and who stopped u from assembling ur family members or neighbors (up to 3-4) to worship God. or wont God be in ur midst?. People are here worshipping in homes in small groups and u are here complaining. or havent u read that most fellowships in the days of Paul were held in people's homes? 2 Likes |
