Omooba77: As far as i am concerned, the only reason for the dwindling numbers of the youth in church is the LACK OF POWER TO BUILD YOUTHS WHOSE LIVES ARE DOMICILED IN THE SPIRIT. Since we were born, we have known the physical. We know the taste of food, the pleasure of sex, the bliss of money and all other material aspects of reality...but we have been largely ignorant of the pleasures in the spirit and our churches are not doing a great job in bringing young people into a life in the spirit... Christianity is spiritual and if you expunge spirituality from the church it becomes a boring waste of time going to church...will a youth find church worth the while if he knows that he lives a life of sin but yet he is officiating as a church worker and there is no effort by the church to ensure that he lives a sinless life? Unless that youth has some material gains he reaps from going to church he will cease going to church! The time has come for PREACHING AND TEACHING to cease being IN ENTICING WORDS OF A MAN'S WISDOM drawn from theological research but must be IN THE DEMONSTRATION OF SPIRIT AND POWER...this is what will draw the youths nigh unto GOD. |

why go church when you still yahoo, nairabet, fornicate, idolate, cheat, lie, adultery, covetous, steal, gambling, smoking, prostituting, exam malpractice, dishonest, , addiction , hater of truth, envy, jealous, tribal, gay, lesbian, vain boasting, lovers of money etcetera and all their likes as found in Galatians 5:19-21 Infact when you still do the above & you still go to church refusing to repent, you are doing yourself. You are a mere moving corpse. You are just being lucky but sadly everyone just shout grace. Can you take this grace here 2 Cor 12:7-10 How many so called Christians youthz be virgin? Don't be surprise in a congregation of 1000, non is Sadly 98% of Nigeria Christian today do all of the above & you didn't wonder why no difference? How many Christians if hit by stray bullet or a direct physical gun shot wouldn't be penetrated or die like fowl. If traditionalist powers can be potent, what about Christian powers in John 3:8? Even small witch dey beat una blue black killing you just like that . The same thing that killed biblical Samson is what is killing Christian today in different devices of Satan. Going to church to warm bench doesn't make a.difference if u are not ready because even inside the church the devil will come there & kill you. Be wise 3 Likes |

escodotman:Since you are asking him let me also ask you: how can everything you know about God be from the Bible? So outside the Bible knowledge of God cannot be had? Before man discovered writing how did men know God or how did God make himself known? No longer will they teach their neighbor, or say to one another, 'Know the Lord,' because they will all know me, from the least of them to the greatest. Hebrews 8v11. Until this happens count me out. Let God speak for himself. 1 Like |

honestly speaking, i have so many reasons why I dont often go to church 1) Christianity is a total fallacy and full of people with black heart, many of them are so wicked yet you see them going to church , does it mean that the church no longer preach repentance?? 2) God is everywhere honestly speaking, you don't need to visit the church before you find him. 3) Christianity is not a pure faith, its a cage that enslave mankind from truth. the pastors twist the bible every day and night to suit their mortal tongues. 4) you get confused on the issue of which church to attend , they are all Christian yet that hate themselves because they don't attend same church 5) pastors live on stupidity of the member who fails to understand that God never specified offering amount. today you çant even go to church if you are broke else when they are giving offering and you don't move, all eyes would be on you. 6) religion has done more harm than good, it sucks, its fallacy, at times I even notice the bible contradicts its self and no one can explain it. 3 Likes |

The only reason, is for lack of undiluted truth preached from the altars. One needs to just take time to find where the truth is preached. And when you do, pitch your tent. |

1. Because no one will report you and have a death fatwa on your head like some religion like that where fasting is eye-service. 2. Because this is 2017 and religion is fast becoming old and giving way to the gods of technology, mordern medicine e.t.c. Reference : American Gods TV series 3. Because they have realized that you can be good, do good and selfless service on your own accord not because some religious book said so. 4. Because the internet provides the required knowledge to show that religion is a sham and this is easily accessible 5. Because no one enjoys routine acts and repeated preaching they have been hearing since childhood. 6. Because atheists are doing a good job at presenting their arguments. 7. Because (some)youths are dynamic people who don't like being stagnant and will return to the church later in their sixties when life becomes boring and routine. 8. Because they have realized religion is just a sham! I could go on and on... 6 Likes |

When u realise Pastor and no one actually cares . All the Pastor need is your tithes , offerings and special gifts . But when one is in difficulties, they turn a blind eye and become so hard to reach . that's when u need to meet with Usher first ,before even talking to the PA , God help u, if u are eventually ushered to meet with the Pastor . Am better off at home , praying, praising and worshiping God . Than be deceiving myself thinking I have members or pastors I can rely on. Just rely on God . He's the only one who cares and blesses . And yes! Lest I forget . if u have a bright star working for u. Some pastors are so ready and quick to steal it off one and dash someone poor or useless star. Thats when one will start running up and down wondering why his or business is folding up. Whereas one so called pastor has added yours to his own. Some men of God are so wicked ! Am better off at home. My business and life is flourishing ,everything protected by God . I can't shout abeg. And I will never taste poverty again ,in Jesus name amen. 2 Likes |
