As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore and repent. – Revelation 3:19. Much of the church today is living a lie. Many of you have been told continuously that you are saved and headed for heaven. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Many of you are heading directly to hell. The systemised lying that is going on in the church has deceived the pastors and the people alike. It is a case of the blind leading the blind. You all need to pray – fervently because many of you are “lost”. No matter what you call me, no matter how you view this issue, no matter what position you have, no matter what church you attend, you have to admit that something is wrong with the church. http://www.punchng.com/columnists/etcetera/the-church-is-leading-you-to-hell/ 79 Likes 9 Shares

He actually acknowledges the moral malfeasance several so-called christians, from pulpit to the pew indulge themselves in, and which are overtly at variance with God's holy standards. And the verse you quoted rather doesn't lend credence to the commandment to pay tithe as the writer opined. Jesus was just showing the SUPERIORITY of life of beatitude over physical show of devotion like payment of tithe. A Christian must be a worthy student of the Bible. We are to condemn those with polluted doctrines who have exalted the lust of the flesh and the pride of life...over and above the Christian kind of life. Holy and righteous life. Inside and outside. Overtly and covertly. God recognizes ONLY those who worship HIM in TRUTH and in SPIRIT. Nothing less is desired of a christian man or woman who has his/her gaze on HEAVEN while passing through this world of sin. 'Follow PEACE with all men, and HOLINESS, WITHOUT which NO MAN shall see the Lord' Heb. 12:14. That's the standard. Finally, identifying the rot in Christianity as practiced by worldly christians is not enough, we are to take our stand as individuals not to allow the perversion of Sodom and Gomorah ensnare us even as we live the truth, say the truth and teach the truth, always. 25 Likes |

This is really great at least some else shares the same view as me but my question remains: what is the right way? to me, the right way is doing what the bible says. P.S I'm not an atheist 9 Likes |

Let me correct you sir, because it is articles like this that point fingers at the church in order to destroy us, but it profers no solution at the end of the tirade. There is no evidence at all that the early church gathered on sundays. They met from house to house, and there were no denominationsYou lied. There were evidences of church meetings in the Acts of the Apostles. The 120 disciples were in the Upper room praying. It was not someone's house. Ananias and Saphira dressed up to go to church and lie to the Holy Spirit, and Peter was the minister that day. Ushers carried their dead bodies out. There was a large church in those days that the apostles appointed seven deacons. About denominations, the persecution of the early church caused people like Stephen to run to Samaria. a new ministry was born there. I believe the persecution was a grand plan by God to scatter the church all over the world, beyond Jerusalem. The word prosperity was never used by Jesus at allWell, John the beloved Apostle used it in III John vs 2. I wish you above all things that though mayest prosper. Remember that John said that it was the same things they heard from Jesus that they were declaring. I John 1vs 1-4. No mention of tithe in new testamentWhen has old testament ceased being a part of the scriptures? Jesus of today is a father christmasOf course he is. That is why you are not dead already. John 10vs10. I have come that you may have life more abundantly. We have a loose church today.Anything unscriptural you find today in a church means that the original still exists. There are still people getting it right. You know that too well. Stop generalising. No alter call again where thousands give their life to Christ.Just attend RCCG'S HolyGhost Congress any last friday of your choosing, or attend Shiloh in Canaanland. Thousands are still giving their lives to christ. What happened to the outpouring of the Holyghost?That you are not experiencing it in your assembly does not mean it does not happen again. Visit RCCG's redemption camp for HolyGhost congress. What you will see will shock you. We are in the last days and these are the days of massive outpouring of His Spirit. Its happening. Lots of pastors know something is wrong, and that church is now a routineGod meets us at the level of our expectation. May be you go to church as a routine. You will never experience that touch of God. I'm about to enter the bathroom and prepare for church, and I'm doing it with expectation of what new thing God will do in my life today. Church is not a routine for me. Please next time, dont generalise things about the church of God. We are marching forward, and the gates of hell will never prevail against us. Thank you. 84 Likes 12 Shares |

He has a point! a valid one at that. If only people of today can open their eyes and mind to reason. you pray for prosperity yet you give the little you have to a pastor who in turn prays for you. why not pray and fast for yourself and keep the little you have with hopes that God will multiply it. You pay 10% to the pastor, have you ever sat down to think, who the pastor pays his 10% to? Have you asked yourself why your pastor doesn't have a job yet he shows off with flashy things! Even the so called charity the church claims to offer, who are the beneficiaries? clearly not the masses. yet you put your life in the hands of men instead of seeking the Creator! may God guide and guard us from evil and hell 6 Likes 1 Share |

Some corrections sir, nevertheless a very very good write up Below are eight facts why the church is leading you straight to hell: Christians go to Church on Sunday because Jesus died on Friday and rose on the third day Sunday. Even without it Jesus made all the days and all were created for Him, so the day you worship Him does not matter. Colossians 1:16f all things were created by him, and for him:
3 John 1:2 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. 3. Tithing is not a New Testament practice at all. Before the Law there was Tithing. Genesis 14:20 And blessed be the most high God, which hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand. And he gave him tithes of all. And Jesus said not to overlook tithes Luke 11:42 But woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye tithe mint and rue and all manner of herbs, and pass over judgment and the love of God: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other (tithe) undone. Nevertheless many pastors abuse Tithing. 4. The Jesus of today’s church is a “Father Christmas,” a Jesus who exists mainly for our own “happiness;” a Father Christmas who wants to rain down continual blessings upon us; a Jesus of grace and mercy without judgement, righteousness or truth. TRUE . You forgot to mention marrying of divorcees that Jesus forbade saying marrying a divorcee is committing adultery, not He didn't say committed but committing so it's continuous. Matthew 5:32 But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.
[size=14pt]CORRECT [/size] 7. What happened to the outpouring of the Holy Ghost? [size=14pt]CORRECT [/size]
Some of the Pastors are the problems of the church, some see it as a business venture. Many of them are members of the occult, so cannot preach God in spirit and truth. [size=14pt] Most of you are worshippers of your pastors and not God[/size] 15 Likes 2 Shares |

The church is the object that makes humanity sane.... Without it, humans will have nowhere to go when faced with hardship, no where to run to when bored of the challenges of the contradictions of nature. So the role of the church is not really spirituality or any miraculous bunkum, but Just a soft bed in a room of thorns where man needs to get soft lies and Hope from even when they are being exploited or depressed... A Marxist point of view... 7 Likes |
