WHEN THE CHURCH IS NO MORE CONDUCIVE

When we can no longer differentiate a church from a social gathering,

And all what we do in church is to just have fun,

When we can't differentiate a choir from an harlot,

And an usher is not different from a waiter,

When the church is no more conducive,

Where shall we go?

When worship session in a church is just like a disco night

And we cant differentiate a pastor from a comedian,

When salvation message is no longer the order of the day

But prosperity and entertainment message is now the core course,

When the church is no more conducive,

Where shall we go?

When prayer warrior now have to go to tongue-speaking school for utterances,

And deliverance and healing session is now like MTH 201 to be taught and learned,

When pastor have to pause for members to clap and shout during sermon in enthusiasm,

And all what we now gain from preaching is now new vocabulary and word usage,

When the church is no more conducive,

Where shall we go?

When the church of God is now an exhibition ground for the latest designer,

And those new convert can no longer come to church for the fear of being inferior,

When the tithe and offering in church have to suffer for anniversary attire,

And the little ones from the faithful member have to suffer for pastor’s birthday,

When the church is no more conducive,

Where shall we go?

Where shall we go is the right question; But never a rhetoric one

Where we can go is simply the feet of the old rugged cross,

And plead for the revival of the church of our father

Because when Jesus shall appear to examine his church

The question of “where to go” will never be an excuse

Even the elect will not be excluded.
WATCH AND PRAY!!!
