dangotesmummy:You have to carefully select your choice of words otherwise the gullible might be led into believing unrealistic things. The church might be a public place but, there's certain protocols/ tradition followed, which has been in existance for a long time........until recent years. I might not be a christian but, I would never disrespect the laws of christianity simply because they generally dont apply to me. The killer here is, its the same christians that are here preaching "public place", which to the gullible means any self expression is allowed. Which if you think of it is, though it still has to be kept decent and holy. |

Muslims are far better than Christians in terms of dressing to church. |

jagugu88li:errmm uncle jagugu the way 21st century Christians sit on their high horses dishing out judgements, you'll think they're saints with no human or moral flaws And for the records Jesus said in the Bible I DID NOT COME FOR THE SELF RIGHTEOUS BUT FOR THE SINNERS.A HEALTHY PERSON HAS NO NEED FOR A DOCTOR, ONLY THE SICK DO SO if you know you're so holy and perfect you don't need to be in church Speaking of which clothes do not define morality. If you go out, you'll see s.u ladies always tying scarf on their hair,they don't wear jwellry or trousers yet they're the ones gossiping at offices,inflating prices of goods,using God's name and outward holiness to defraud people .leave story for the gods jare Bottom line is that the church was made for liars,prostitutes,ritualists,deviants etc but now Christians have tuned it to a place of vindictiveness,show of self righteousness ,display of their new cars etc 2 Likes 1 Share |

dangotesmummy:Sinners are everywhere and they include this one typing here. That doesnt mean we should go out of our way to intentionally be immoral just because its 21st century. Anyway, I'm sure we are all brought up in this manner that when a child is wrong, they should be reprimanded, rather than being let be. For they'll then assume they did nothing wrong. As humans, its naturally build in to make mistakes, do wrong unintentionally etc.....but we are then taught to be better, learn from those and move on. The church was made for sinners who try to make a good living by coping from the life of Jesus Christ and all his teachings. Meaning, we should try to live better and do better, try and stay away from sin, try and be Godly.............and the only way to achive that is to say no to wrong doing. That is not being judgmental but rather, helping each other to be better people Funny how we remember 21st century when it best suits us, just funny.....and no, I am no Muslim. Happy Sunday |

CHRISTIAN71:what goes on in the mind of an "active man". With the way you sound,you'll almost think that thing in between your legs is almost impossible to be controlled. Is it not a member if your body? The last time I checked the bible Paul admonished Christians (Christ followers) that whatever is pure, whatever is holy and of good report should be meditated upon. |
Re: Ladies Please Save Us The Distraction In Church by dangotesmummy: 1:22pm On Apr 23, 2017 |
Ichietome:o please decency is relative.whatever is decent to you could be indecent to me and vice versae.we don't have the same mind,school of thought or see things the same way.our orientation and values are different so your own version of decency can be different from what I call decent That includes responsibility. I'll give you an example. The Nigerian society defines a person as responsible if he's married or if she's married regardless of whether he or she has a job. To the society he's responsible. To others a man that gets drunk or always attacks his wife is irresponsible to some and for others they'll say he's responsible as long as he's paying the bills.so everyone's idea of decency and responsibility is different |

jagugu88li:of course I'm a sinner and I admit my frailties but I don't go around saying you're a sinner because you're wearing short skirt or you will go to hell because of painted nails.those are display of self righteousness. No one has any right to change anyone's behavior or way of doing things.at best you can preach to the person if he wants to listen.it's the work of the holy spirit to transform .for example if you keep judging someone who is dressing indecently according to your standard if she doesn't see anything indecent about what she's wearing, she might likely not change .matter of fact the judgements and vindictiveness will worsen her and if she has forceful parents or brothers,she'll dress just to satisfy them but the minute she's not around her family members, she wears anything again but when the holy sprit works in her state of mind, She'll be different in essence all this works if flesh insults and judgements you call correction cannot change anybody that doesn't want to change or doesn't see anything wrong in what she's wearing, you're just wasting your tine |

The Church maybe a "place of worship" but it is also a more of "place of social gathering" if you doubt it ask those that go there to look for wife or husband. You are even told to go around and shake your neighbours. That is a social place. Ask yourself your motive for going to church? If it is to look for a babe or dude. Then dress to catch one and be on the look out for one. For like attracts like. So if your aim is to worship, go prepared, meditate at home so your concentration is 100%. You attention will be fully in place.You won't go to church and be looking around like you are in a market place checking for goods. I am speaking from experience cos those days I go to church to worship, I was always so focussed that people ask me did you see lady that sat in front of you, she was dressed like a this and that , my response was always I didn't notice. |

What u did was right if "most" were dressed that way. If dat d norm there else she might jst b a visitor. Luke 17:1-2 ( easy english ) 1. ‘Some people will try to cause other people to do wrong things. You can be sure about that’, Jesus said to those that always followed him. ‘But God will *punish every person that tries to do that. 2. So he must stop doing it. If not, he should ask someone to hang a big stone round his neck. Then people should throw him into the sea with the stone. So he will not cause one of these little people to do "wrong things".’ 1 corinthians 8 : 9, Rom 14 : 21 If eating meat would make my brother sin, i rather not eat meat. Dnt do whatever would make sb sin. Meat in this case refers to d dressing. We now have preachers who are after their belly, after what they would get and as such cannot "preach" the truth. They are called false Teachers, false prophets et.c n they r everywhere. One of the challenges women hv is d pressure to belong, to be in vogue. Women hv always bn at d center of all contention and issues that hv happened to mankind from creation and i ask why? I found out that they are entrusted with the key to MORALITY. When Eve turned against God even perfect Adam couldnt RESIST her. In conclusion, everyone is having a role to play. Play ur role righly. I pray God lead you to a purified church where his spirit dwells n where u can find rest unto ur soul. Shalom |

thesicilian: I do not agree that leaving the service meant he was not ready for church. I advise that he leaves the church kpatakpata and not the service only. No matter how good a pastor preaches/teachers, if his members' dressing would kill me faster than God will save me then I better be gone. You can't serve a world class menu on faeces stained dishes and turn around to blame me for getting up to leave. |

arrestdarrester:You may be right, but gold wrapped up in plantain leaves is still gold. If what you want is in a hidden part of the thickest forest, you'll work your way towards it. There are distractions in almost every endeavors we face as men, and we can't run away from all. That is the one of the reasons we close our eyes to pray. In essence, it is better to overcome obstacles than to run away from them. |
