Liberal Christianity? Stage 10 cancer.
Sex education can and should happen in churches because sex education is not synonymous with encouraging people to have sex.
A church can teach abstinence and uphold its position on premarital sex while still ensuring that its congregation is adequately informed about sexual and reproductive health.
Conversations about consent, bodily autonomy, boundaries, puberty, relationships, contraception, sexual health and making informed decisions are all part of sex education.
Withholding information doesn’t stop people from engaging in sexual activity.

Sexual education is not a topic for the church. There's a reason why counselors and relationship coaches exists outside of the church.
The church is 100% about abstinence from sexual relationship between unmarried people because they live for God to please Him.
I am not against sex education, but I disagree that the church is the appropriate platform for teaching it. How do you teach people about contraception, sexual health and making informed sexual decisions without inevitably introducing conversations about sexual activity?
The Bible’s position on premarital sex is clear, and I don’t think we need to complicate that position with unnecessary nuances. The church should uphold its teachings and values, while schools, healthcare professionals and other appropriate platforms handle comprehensive sexual and reproductive health education.
Not every “important” subject needs to be taught in church. Different institutions have different responsibilities.

The consequences of sin are not all the same. Just as different offences attract different degrees of punishment, some sins carry weightier consequences than others.
Sin is sin, but its consequences are not necessarily equal.
There's no lesser sin or bigger sin but there is a sin unto death and there are sin not unto death. 1 John 5:16-17.
That being said, not all sins have the same immediate consequences as sexual immorality. It separates man from the spirit of God.

They should go and see a therapist or a relationship counselor or better still meet the pastor privately.
The church(congregation) is not a place to address that kind of conversation. There are people who will think it is an endorsement to live that kind of life.
They are so hypocritical, it makes me sick. If young people can’t go to the church and talk about these things, where should they go?

Do you know why some disciples turned around after Jesus told them to eat his flesh and drink his blood?
Why did he not give them sound advice to meet them where their faith was?
Baba, you gats leave this Christianity thing for people wey understand am to teach am.
He gave very sound advice. The church is a place to learn, not a place to perform as Jesus’s assistant. He taught practically and didn’t fall back on the usual “it’s a sin” trope. He clearly understands the world and the real struggles Christians face.

The Church doesn't need to become more like the world to reach the world. It needs to become more like Christ.

I know this is where you people will run to.
Again,you and your teacher must be taught.
Why is it the only reason you must be divorced? Reconcile that to being one spirit with Christ and why it causes man to lose his birthright.
God and read proverbs 6:17-19 come back and tell me 7 things that God hates.

1 Corinthians 6:18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.
You can easily tell people who don't read their bibles. If I had the power, I'd make Sunday school cumplsory in all churches.
If you don't understand Repentance from dead works and Faith in God when it is preached, how will you understand perfection when it is taught?
We need more churches in 🇳🇬 to actually teach the gospel and preach less.
Look at a lot of weird weird takes😂. All because someone asked about sex in church 😂.

No.
If a man comes to a church and stays there for one month and still have the boldness to ask some kind of question without any form of guilt or remorse, the fault is from the pulpit; there has never been a message that convicts the Soul of that man for one day.
That's bad.
Your second and third paragraphs do not align. When Jesus drew sinners in, he acted with love rather than condemnation; this distinction defines the difference . Many aspects of that video remain unclear to most of us. Was it a standard service? Is it a singles service? Did they invite people to attend only in bare form? Did you view the full service, or is it a one-minute clip we used to judge?
When Jesus invited those without sin to throw the first stone, the lesson remains relevant today. We hope the body of Christ will expand, yet when people arrive with their struggles, we fail to meet them where they need help; instead, we claim they are living in sin even though we are in sin too. Perhaps because you hide your faults better and avoid exposing them, you feel superior to the other person, don’t you?

The love in Christianity is not tolerance for sin. I hope we understand that.
Jesus was not condoning sin by eating with sinners. He was calling them to repentance, not endorsing their sinful lifestyles.
Liberal Christianity is not Christianity. The faith is uncompromising when it comes to holiness, righteousness and obedience to God's Word. Christianity is hardcore, and we shouldn't dilute its standards to accommodate the world.

Wow! Thank you, Sister Elizabeth, for being genuine.
Christianity is damn hard. You have to deny yourself daily and remain at enmity with sin.
The fact that millions of Christians continue to sin and pretend otherwise doesn't change what Christianity demands of us.
One of the reasons I stopped going to church was that I couldn’t reconcile the lifestyle I wanted to live with what the Bible taught.
The Bible has clear positions on premarital sex, modesty, drinking and several other things. I couldn’t imagine going to church every Sunday, reading my Bible and constantly feeling guilty because I knew I was living in ways that contradicted what I understood Christianity to teach.
What I find interesting tho is when “Christians” try to water down or reinterpret biblical teachings to make room for the very things those teachings condemn, picking and choosing parts of the Bible they like. The recent debate on the timeline about whether premarital sex is a sin is a good example. I find it quite funny, honestly.
For the UMPTEENTH TIME, it is not the reading of the bible that keeps satan away,it is the development of the Word substance of the Spirit that keeps him away.
Knowing who you are and Jesus in you is what keeps satan away.
This is what kept Satan away from Jesus.
Satan has deceived one third of the angels, imagine what he is capable of doing with a generation that does not read the Bible.

To argue Paul's teaching is to argue the source of his letters & the power behind his commission.
Doing this invalidates the whole Ministry of Reconciliation which Jesus gave to both Peter(the Jews) and Paul(to the gentiles).
The Gospels and the Acts are one by the Holy Ghost.
Controversial as it may be, I believe the modern Pentecostal movement reflects Paul more than Jesus(which shouldn’t be the case), since many practices here are interpreted through Paul’s strictness in his letters and doctrines—even though he was the most flexible apostle regarding Jewish laws.

God's calling CANNOT be anything. It is specific and that's why the gift of ministry were given. Ephesians 4.
God's calling is to preach the Gospel and the message or centrality of that Gospel is primarily about the Soul of man and the kingdom.
You people are in darkness.
God's calling can be anything ..and God can give you weird instructions
God asked bishop oyedepo not to travel out of the country ... It's been 8 years since his last travel abroad
God ask kaestrings to continue singing in hausa language ..
God ask adeboye to never take credit of what he's doing in his church and life .. the day he let pride win over him .. he would wipe him out and n one will remember him on the earth
So yes ,God can tell him that's what I want you to be doing .. be a relationship coach and about whores ?
Go get a lawyer
