My observation is that many youths are in church serving in one position or the other today because of what they can get like jobs, wife/husband, connection and so on. May God help us to truely love Christ! 19 Likes 1 Share |

Depends on the God you're talking about. If you mean the God spelt as M-O-N-E-Y, Then you're wrong cause everyone serves him ![]() 26 Likes 3 Shares |

This is the same issue that has been plaguing the church at least since the middle- end of the last century..with the explosion of modernization and technology. The world has and is fluencing the church more than the church influencing the world. If what the world has to offer, is placed on the highest pedastal in the youths' hearts, then that is what will be sought after. It's truly one simple spiritual reason though: no true heart conversion. I know I sound like a tape-recorder, but it comes down to the heart. The youth in churches worldwide, probably cannot make the decision to leave the church yet or just not attend, so they just bring the "world" in. They begrudgingly serve.. It's a "barter/trade" relationship." "I'll serve, but I better get something out of it" type of mentality. One foot in the church and the other "outside" of it. So the worldy mentality comes into the church..and dominates. I'm not judging, but I know its a problem in the U.S. also. Parents/guardians have to do better job in laying a very firm biblical foundation...I would say. 30 Likes 2 Shares |

This is because of the unbalanced gospel that has corrupted our current Christianity whereby Jesus Christ is preached as a means to an end {miracles, signs, job-opportunity, marital-engagements, promotions, financial-favors, healing e.t.c} instead of THE END ITSELF (ETERNAL LIFE) that permits both advantages and disadvantages. The problem with our Christian belief started when preachers started preaching Jesus Christ as a means to an end(Miracles, financial-favors, marital-engagements, marital-bliss, job-opportunities, wealth, healing, prosperity e.t.c) and NOT THE END ITSELF{LIFE ETERNAL}. Unless we preach CHRIST JESUS CRUCIFIED ALONE as the END and ALL THAT ANY HUMAN BEING NEEDS at every tick of time on this earth more erroneous doctrines, juju-men on suits, shrine-centers in the name of synagogues and prayer-houses will abound wrecking peoples' life especially in Africa and this generation. Repetition of the Sound gospel of Grace{repent from sin/unbelief, believe in Jesus Christ in order to receive eternal life, submit your whole being; spirit, soul and body to the Holy Spirit to possess through daily consistent and progressive bible to discover more about JESUS CHRIST and grow in GRACE both as an individual and as a member in your fellowship/Church} is NEVER BORING because the Holy Spirit releases his freshness/anointing/grace each time it is preached, releases ETERNAL LIFE AND GRACE to attend to each individual and family as IT PLEASES HIM and AT HIS OWN TIME!!! 31 Likes |

What are your reasons? |
Re: Why Are Youths Not Genuinely Serving God? by BrightEye(m): 8:09am On Jan 27, 2019 |
Because they need strong Conviction! Youths of this generation are born in the era of modernization. They have access to any information they seek, and some of them have realised that something is wrong with our religious settings, and they are not sure of what serving God means. 17 Likes 2 Shares |
