6 Things That Choke/kill Ones Spiritual Life by Damianobi(m): 11:19am On Dec 06, 2014
1) Evil communication (1 cor 15:33)

It is said that evil communication corrupts good manners nd this is a way of killing ones spiritual life

2) Staying away from mass/service:

Some christians will stay at home on sundays nd do irrelevant things instead of going to the church to hear the word of God and they claim to be true christians

3) The kind of music you listen to:

Some people will leave the church after service only for them to start singing worldly songs. Most youths of nowadays don't even listen to gospel musics. They prefer wizkid, 2face etc. And the worst part of it is that they feel it doesn't affect their christian life

4) Watching of pornography:

Pornography is one of the fastest way of killing ones spiritual life.
I was in a church one day and the pastor said anyone who has porn on his/her phone should delete it there in the church or else the person won't get home safely and to my greatest surprise people started bring out there phones, some even pretend as if a text just got in.

5) Sins:

This is the easiest way of killing ones spiritual life.

6) Lack of prayer:

A prayerful christian if a powerful christian, if you don't pray always, then the devil has upper hand in your spiritual life. And all what he does is to kill, steal and destroy.

Feel free to add yours if u have any.

Prayerlessness and staying away from the word of God. It causes lukewarmness

There is an innate need to separate religion from spirituality.

Spirituality is for the individual while religion is for the masses.

Christians can differ in spirituality. You can't claim that listening to Wizkid devalues one's spirituality just because you don't like it.

I can agree on going to church partially but not music. Music is spiritual in itself.

I guess they were playing gospel songs at the wedding Jesus turned water into wine.....mtcheww.


Your spirituality is fragile enough for a small boy like wizkid to penetrate. My spirituality is not demolished by listening to modern songs.


Ironically, they dance shoki in churches now

if it doesn't corrupt d mind, why do they refuse to sing them in churches?
And probably wen a church organises an all night of praise, they invite wizkid to come and sing

Not knowing what you want for yourself.
For instance, if you don't want to be a church-man, and you're forcing yourself to go every Sunday, you'll successfully become one of the following:
1. Minister of 'Dress-to-kill'
2. Professional Buttocks Analyzer
3. C.E.O., Attendance Records Dept.
4. Member, Notice-Me Asso.
5. Slumber Crew, Church Branch.
6. Gossip Specialist, Back Seat Section, e.t.c.

Anything but a Spiritual Gee.

He attended a wedding and wasn't listening to the songs for personal pleasure. Singing and assimilating such songs is worldliness and that's the number one enemy to Godliness. it drowns u spiritually, can u call down GOD's presence with such songs??
