2020 31st night I spent my crossing over in a night club believe me this year has been the best best so far thinking of doing the same.

Nope!!
I'm currently at work. God answers prayers everywhere

Still yet E no go stop Nigeria incessant inflation and hiking price of commodity

It doesnt matter . Some do it for fun .

Romanoff:
Nope, many people prayer no dey even reach the ceiling of the church. Na only that crossover night many dey enter church, some na only that day then dey pray sef thinking they can play God Kalo Kalo.

Hahaha! Kalo Kalo got me cracking up oo.
But you're so right.

Any time spent in God's presence means a lot.

Kobojunkie:
What are this several instructions of Jesus Christ you refer to there please?

Jesus Christ for certain did not ask anyone to build your churches in His name and He never asked anyone to sit in any church in worship of Him either. He said that He will build His Church- by His own hands - so what difference do you think your sitting in on those gatherings you call churches - gathering built and ordered by the hands of the men who run those businesses - will make to your life?

Jesus Christ also warned His followers to stay clear away from the doctrines and traditions of men(and their churches), lies , which He explained where meant to decieve people away from following the Truth of God - Matthew 15 vs 1 - 14 and Mark 7 vs 1 - 13, so what difference do you expect more of the same vain worship will make to your relationship or lack with God?

I think you have an issue and the issue is with Pastors. If this is not addressed it brings in bitterness to anything called church. Stop generalising also. All churches are not the same.

Where 2 or 3 are gathered in my name there I am.

Also, do not forsake the gathering of believers were the instructions from the Bible.

It is our over religious style that makes us come up with many things just to set confusion. Fine, what makes the church is not the building but the individuals. This does not in anyway suggests that the gathering is cancelled.

Now, you are never God to know who worship in vain. So, please stop every bitterness and focus on what God wants from us.

jesusjnr2020:
Lol. Telling people to repent was just my own view and has no biblical backing... That sums up the unfounded basis of your post.

It does not sum up anything. Rather, you have only succeeded in creating more issues and confusion. In the zeal of letting others know about His coming, let's also be careful not to lead people astray.

It will do you good to always speak from the Bible than passing your view to mean it is Biblical and thereby, lead many into more error than directing them to God.

IrepChrist:
For those that will seek him genuinely it is very significant. You are seeking God in the early morning of a new year.

Scriptures says
"They that seek me early shall find me"

Beautiful.

As I entered the gates of my house this evening, not more than 10 mins ago, "I heard in my spirit God sent me to you" I wondered and somewhat believe someone or something has been sent to me. and I asked who but on reading this I knew this was God's Word sent to me.

Thanks bro

Does spending time outside make sense?!! other than the presence of God on the first day of any year. To appreciate God and to say THANK YOU LORD can go a long in shaping the year for anyone.No worry if you go this one and have faith trusting God , he will do more than you imagine.HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Everybody get wetin dey ginger am
But someone like me, as I dey go tonight, I don get plans on how to detty 1 Jan God’s grace

Does Spending The Last Night Of The Year In A Church Service Make Any Difference?

It's about that time of the year again, when the churches across the nation usually record their highest attendance numbers of the year, during their cross over services.

The reason for the record attendance figures attained during these services, is mostly because many who rarely or never attend church services during the year, for some reason are also found inside church buildings on this particular night during the cross over services.

It appears they do so because they feel spending the last night or cross over service of the year was very important and makes a significant difference in their lives, regardless of how they spent the remaining part of the year after cross over service, even if they don't change their ways, or do any thing differently from how they used to do them.

However the truth is that just spending the last night or cross over service of any year in any church building would make no real difference in someone's life, except it is able to cause the person to change his ways and how he does things.

Moreover, if Christ were to come on the last night of the year, most of those inside the church buildings during the cross over service would still be left behind, so what's the point of just attending these last church services of the year, if one doesn't repent or turn away from his or her wicked ways?

What difference does it really make?

Nothing my brother. Every single day Is same as the last day of the year..... No difference. People are just being delusional about it

Like this now´am perparing to go cross over

This thing you talk makes no sense. There is nothing like early or late. If we should follow ur logic then seeking god on the 30th of December would be useless bcs it's late abi?

4. Now, you are never God to know who worship in vain. So, please stop every bitterness and focus on what God wants from us.

1. 2 or 3 of whom? Those who belong to Jesus Christ- those who trust and oney His commandments. Now, when His followers gather in His name, be it outside somewhere or in a brothel, Jesus Christ promises them He will be in their midst. Those who gather in your churches however submit themselves to the doctrines and traditions of men(and their churches) which Jesus Christ warned was an abomination where the Truth of God is concerned. Can Jesus Christ go against His own Truth? Impossible!

2. Jesus Christ never said that.

3. What is religious style is instead to constantly confuse the doctrines and traditions of men, for the Truth of God. Jesus Christ warned you that those of you who do this worship Him in vain.

4. God explained to you over 2000 years ago that which constituted vain worship. He warned you that the following of doctrines and traditions of men in His name is nothing but vain worship that keeps you from following His Truth as you remain trapped instead in the lies - Matthew 15 vs 1 - 14 & Mark 7 vs 1 - 13.

You don't need to be God to know God's Truth. His Truth and Law was given to you and I over 2000 years ago in Jesus Christ.

No be that kind early, the scripture dey talk about OOO.

Honestly was thinking about this just before leaving home for church with my parents.
Would have preferred to stay back at home and think and relax.

Cross over service is nice if you maximize it. Unfortunately, Many Christians pray but are very lazy to take actions. Prayers and actions should go hand in hand! Don't be lazy!

Benzemma:

Lolz.... Na Early ooo.
New year never start, you don enter church, no be Early be that.

arleck:

Exactly, everyday is just the same.
New year
New day
New month.

Nothing, but to a large extent, it proves the point of a theory, that says "We as humans are social beings"

Just shut abeg

Spending any time in church changes nothing.

Best comment.

festacman:
If you want to attend crossover service, go ahead and attend. If you don't want to attend, by all means, stay home, watch TV and sleep. If you want to dance your way into 2022, suit yourself and go to a club or turn on your home speakers. And if you want to welcome 2022 by playing bangers and fireworks, feel free and do it. The sky is large enough for all birds.

This is wishing everyone a fruitful 2022.

It doesn't.

Born, breed and buried in the church is no ticket to Paradise not to talk more of just a night then after most of us depart in fellowship and gladly toe back to our first love of iniquity.

But then, I'm no moral compass too.

You are entitled to disagree with my view, without having to resort to lies that it has no scriptural backing. You should be worried about your unscriptural comment, more than my view about repentance which is clearly scriptural.

If Jesus were here, you would also be having issues with Him as the Pharisees did, because you place such lesser matters over the more important things which He emphasized as repentance and the obedience of God's Word.

Romanoff:

The truth really is that no one's prayer makes any difference, regardless of when it's done.

Please "seeking early" means when you're still alive not when dead as there's no repentance in the grave.
Get it right.

Kobojunkie:
There are no separate rules for individuals where God is concerned. Your churches and their doctrines and traditions, lies, are against Jesus Christ, the Truth of God.

I hear you sir

jesusjnr2020:
When you believe you can live a life of sin every other day of the year but just one night service would save you and makes a difference? I don't agree with you! Except you repent it makes no difference!

Who even told you what I believe?

Don't discourage people from going to church.
You too should be there.
See you next year!
