Hmmmmm, bringing worldliness into the church, cultural mass was not part of the church of old and shouldn't be part of the present church.

Lolzzzz.... It's like you've not attended a high Mass before. It's most times that way with burning incense. Try one day pay a visit during any high Mass.

It isn't called high mass but rather Latin mass. There's nothing like high mass in the Catholic church.

I used to be a catholic member before my mum dragged me to deeper life during my service year. One thing I like about catholic is that, they always uphold our culture. In Onitsha, we usually do new yam celebration in church. We practicalize it by welcoming many traditional kings, native doctors, town criers etc All of which is our church members. The traditional Catholic church us custodian of culture.

Catholics should explain the spiritual benefits of this

Romans 11 God has no favorite but anyone Jews or gentile that obey him is acceptable to him. Spirituality is not majorly an outword thing but about the circumcision of the heart. There is a practice in Catholic church called enculturization-Taking the people's culture that are good and not contradictory to the teachings of Christ and fusing it to church service. St Paul said I became everything to every one so that I will win them 4 Christ.But we know that "the everything does not include sin. I hope u now understand.

People will just wake up and start saying sh#t. Promote your culture as if Christianity is your culture. If y'll want to promote culture then promote African Traditional Culture and stop confusing yourselves in the name of promoting culture.

So what culture was church of the old?

What Catholic church is doing is what is called inculturation. Using your local way of life to worship God, that's why, instead of band, you see drum, ogene etc, Thanksgiving abroad is by cash, in Africa we go with goat, yam, farm fruits etc that's our way of life.

Instead of going to celebrate new yam harvest in shrine, the church encourage members by doing new yam harvest Thanksgiving

Instead of using the foreign made golden insect purifier, we can use our local earthen ware etc.

Before now, if you wear native dress like isiagu, you will be looked at like a heathen, but today it has become generally accepted as cultural wear that can be worn to church and not only suits

If this same thing was done by whites, you'll be hailing them but it's idolatry because it was done by your countryman. It's the same way they told you that the devil is black and you swallowed it hook line and sinker. We dumped our culture/identity for the white man's culture and that's why we're currently having these evils and identity crisis we're currently having.
Black man, embrace your culture because it's the only thing you have

hmmmmm, I still not agree with that, it was not part of what the church was created, the main aim of the church is to preach the undiluted Word of God to sinners and backsliders.

You do realize that during the time of Jesus, they had their own culture which includes their dressing, right? If Jesus Christ understood the importance of culture, why do we abandon ours because men from another land came to our land and told us that our culture is barbaric while making us believe theirs is better than ours?

Thanks for explaining it to them. People refuse to think, or even read the bible but swallow everything their Daddy G.O tells them.
It's same way some of them think our cultural festivals are evil. Rubbish people
