It says " do not neglect the gathering of brethren". Globally christians agree to meet on sundays like the muslims on friday. Albeit i'm less concerned about the meeting day or point, the work is what am after.
no dispute here, only highlighting the need to look beyond the day and focus more on the works.

Woke up today thinking of all my very huge financial obligations and it's made me sad and depressed. So I'm not going to church. I'm just stuck in bed thinking of where and how to raise a few millions to sort out very pressing issues. Truly, uneasy lies the head that wears the crown. Growing up is a scam o. Expenses left, right and centre. They didn't tell me when I was a child that when I grow up, this is how I'd be running from pillar to post to meet up with my responsibilities. If they had told me, I wouldn't have grown up. I'd have just remained a todler.

Stay strong man.... You'll pull through

I don't go to church but some weeks back my boss talked about emptying ones cup in life. So I entered church last Sunday I enjoyed the preaching but the pastor talked about other religions going to hell because of........ Dat statement made me angry and upset.

I am seriously struggling to believe in religion but the evidence against it is strong
True. If one were to consider all the negatives, going to church would be a NO NO for most people. May God help us all.

Going to church is no longer appealing to me one bit. I cant even begin to force myself to go when while at it i'll keep getting thousands of reasons why its a waste of time.

You gave God an option, what if God gives you an option , serve me or die.

He has already given you somethine more valuable and more costly than money.

No amount of money can buy life, your health is a gift.
Your sight, your legs, your immune system, you got no cancer, no tumor etc.

The financial difficulties we face is a problem created by man.
You find a way out, do not put it on God.
Why would he give me an option when he has indirectly left me in this hell-hole of a country with no option??...it would have been unfair...having all those aforementioned things you talked about as blessings doesn't justify the fact that going to church with a broke mindset won't put you to shame...suffer no dey tire you??

Going to church doesn't change the beast in most people, it only makes them more vicious. Going to church doesn't guarantee success in one's endeavors. What you need to do is to hustle well. Work hard and stop believing in fallacies

I have been going to church since when I was a foetus and am still going.
Although, there are many reasons why going to some church is discouraging.
It saddens my hearts when am in a church in which the preacher is not talking about the finished work on the cross but rather advanced psychology, playing on the members emotions to give tithes, afraid of calling spade a spade so as not to discourage those who pay the highest tithes.
Even the gospel of grace is not spare, they tell there members that they can continued to sin with the slogan that "Grace covers all in all" forgetting that Grace can be liken to antimalarial drugs, we don't expose ourselves to mosquitoes just because we have the drugs.
Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? 

If the ministers of God can stick to the Truth, then some of our politicians whom occupied first role in the church we change.
NB;
All these reasons shouldn't stop an individual from going to church, if you notice you are not blessed spiritually in your present Church you can simply change to another church.
finally do not neglect the gathering of the brethren

wow you are a rich man .how do you make all these money.

Which money you dey call all these money? Struggling to pay 50K monthly as children's school fess, save another 50K monthly for house rent, 50K for house keep, salary remains 30K. Most times starving, walking long distance to office to save cost and wearing old worn out clothes and shoes so that wife and kids can live an average life. My brother, sometimes I just think this earth shouldn't have been created in the first place. So much struggling and uncertainty for the not too lucky ones like me.

Going to church is a waste of time. Spend your Sunday morning with your loved ones. Thanks me later!

Why is it that atheists, Moslems etc will rush and comment senselessly on Christian thread.

Seun, lalasticlala, puskin its time to accept allegiance to Jesus before being able to comment on Christian threads just as you do for Moslems.

People who were taught not to question their religious indoctrination will always feel persecuted by those who have the common sense to question their beliefs. This is their cognitive dissonance kicking in. They can't believe anyone has the audacity to question what they were taught not to. People can refuse to go to church or mosque because they don't want to, it's that simple. It's funny when religious people look at you with pity in their eyes, when you reject their teachings, like they have won the lotto and you're missing out on something big. Let people be, you preach live and let live, yet wake people up every money with noise, preach on buses, go from house to house and shiit. If religious people had their way, they would throw people in jail for not practicing religion. I say this because one moment they are enticing you with heaven, the next, scaring you with eternal damnation.

Transport fare: 10,000 Naira
Hotel room: 10,000 Naira
Food & drinks: 5,000 Naira
Barbecue fish: 5,000 Naira
Recharge card: 1,000 Naira
Condoms: 500 Naira
---------------------------------------------
Total: 31,500 Naira

All of the above frivolous expenses just to make love to a woman I met online!?!?

I have stopped that madness since. Imagine spending such on 24 different ladies in one year, we are talking of 756,000 Naira in just a year because I want to prove that I am not a stingy man. I repeat, it will never happen again.

Until some single men realize the frivolous error they are doing and until some ladies understand that they are missing their husbands because they want it all in a day then we will keep on having numerous unmarried spinsters and bachelors.

Some men should please receive sense, spend wisely on your wife or your wife to be. Think about tomorrow.

Because churches are more of social gatherings and it's not every week you want to go and hangout in clubs, parties or with basphemers a.k.a bible thumps/church goers and adding to your problems.

Been about 5 years since I went to church and I'm getting better with my spiritual walk. I will still go to church in the future to fellowship after observing the shabbat on Saturday if I see a church based on Christ.

No one should be under pressure to go to church, and church doesn't mean God is there. You are better off praying with family members and friends/neighbors because the bible says where 2 or 3 gathered in his name, and he must be worshipped in spirit and in truth.

Going to church can even be unequally yoked with unbelievers because what most "Christians" do is not different from what the satan himself is doing. 90% of the pastors need serious prayers and deliverance for themselves

Pray for yourself, friends and family and go out to give money to the needy people you see.

Church is a building, just like Niteclubs, restuarants, Hotel rooms, casinos, Brothels and cinemas rooms.


The only difference is Scamming pastors are making so much money from church businesses without paying any taxes.

Well, as a Catholic, the priests don't know how to preach something worth my time. It's synonymous with almost all Catholic churches I've been to.
Say the reading is about how Jesus fed 5000 men with 5 loaves of bread and two fish, I know it's difficult to explain but it's unnecessary to stand in that pulpit for more than 2 hours beating about the bush on the message. I want to hear something that'll have a positive impact on my life.
Preach about our daily lives. Catholics just go to church cos they feel they will go to hell if they don't and that the solution to their problems lies in going to church. That's all.
That's why you'll leave your seat to go receive communion and someone will steal the phone you plugged in the wall socket cos priests only recite the bible and rarely teach good morals and etiquettes in church.
Although some protestant churches are good at addressing these issues but their mode of operation is completely brainwashing their members...but that's a story for another time.

Kai!!, you just hit d nail on d head for a fellow catholic, u just said it all,alongside d Pentecostal part too

7 straight years of not stepping inside a church

In the last 15 years , may be less than 5 times sha.. Sorry what are they doing there?

When a rich man that can employed all the congregations wont do, he can't even help the the obvious people in need but prefers to donate all to the pastor and church...

Only in Nigeria they will start a meeting with prayers, lie through out the meeting and still end it with prayers.

Btw, Nigeria politicians do attend church and mosque too


Count mosquées out. Our way of worship is not the same, so islam never lost it way of worship
