NSCEA: “When The Church Becomes A Personal Business” -By Funmilayo Adesanya–Davies
Beloved, if you are still on these pattern
of “christianity” that is deceiving yourself by covering face with Church meanwhile you are already in cult, not the
Church of Jesus Christ. Repent before it is too
late!!!
NSCEA SPEAKS ON “WHEN THE CHURCH BECOMES A PERSONAL BUSINESS”
1) Pastors function like CEOs
2) Members are turned into customers, the day they like they come to church.
3) Other churches are seen as competitions
4) Evangelism is reduced to marketing
5) Church planting looks more like franchising
6) Members are primary measure of success
7) Prayer and Word study are replaced by formulas
8) Revival is reduced to a few days fund-raising
program because men of God attentions are diverted to pursue money for members and end up being duped and disgraced (Grant)
9) Preaching sounds more like motivational speech.
All the people do is shout “I receive, Amen,”
throughout the concert. I mean the “service”.
10) Praise and Worship is turned into a
performance. The best actors are made the worship
and praise leaders.
11) The Spirit of God is reduced to “emotionalism”.
No real power of God other than hypnosis and yet the believers are rushing from such church to another of such church blindly.
12) The saints are entertained instead of equipped
13) Disciples of Christ have become papa’s sons,
daughters and fans.
14) The Church, a living Body has now become a
lifeless body
15) A leader’s empire is built instead of the
Kingdom of God advanced
16)
Does any one of these sound farmiliar in this
generation?
Beloved, if you are still on these pattern
of “christianity” that is deceiving yourself by covering face with Church meanwhile you are already in cult, not the
Church of Jesus Christ. Repent before it is too
late!!!
All these highlighted above is exactly what made
Jesus himself to ask:
“When the Son of Man comes, will He find faith in
the Earth?”
(Luke 18.8)
AMEN!!!
