For me, two hours at most

2 seconds

I disagree the Spirit is not gone, sometimes its scares me, how its seems God presence is around or manifested.

Personally my flesh does not like long church hours, i get tired, and lose focus. But in the presence of God there is Joy unending and Life.

Dtruthspeaker:


In those days of the outpouring, Church was too sweet that even such that 2 hours would pass but one was too heavy to move or to go home (didn't even want to go home. I wanted church to continue forever. Ah but the stop too was sweet and the anticipation of coming back to church was also sweet.)

O God definitely moved in those days. I it was so very beautiful and so very sweet!

But today, The Spirit is gone and the church is useless. It is even a place of sinners and no different from beer parlour and strip clubs.

So it is not a place for those looking for cleansing nor for the holy.

I don't care about the Time duration....as long as i don't go to Church, it doesn't affect me!

.

Not even a minute should be on top of 2 hrs

HarlequinLekex:
It should last as long as the church directors want and church members want. For me church service you should be between 9 a.m and 12 p.m.

a typical Pentecostal one service man sited..

zero minute. church is a time waster that drains your money too then promises you posthumous bliss they can't prove just because some ignorant goatherders who had no idea where the sun went at night wrote it.

Hian, if you post again on nairaland.com, I will jail you for 700 years

you want me to answer for someone else?

StrongAlphMale:
How long do you think a church service should last?

For me, I think 1hrs 30mins is okay!
Anything aside this is tiring!

If you like spend 72hours in church , at the end of the day How did you treat your neighbor?

When Adam and Eve sinned in the Garden of Eden, God judged them. This was eons before the 10 commandments were given to Moses on Mount Sinai.

My ancestors and everyone else's including yours, will be judged according to God's Law which is eternal because God Himself is eternal.

Idonweak:


I wonder why your ancestors who have never heard about Christianity didn't have the same convictions or didn't have a close relationship with your holy spirit?

I still can't understand how you all try to take away the fact that you're all a product of brainwashing not a freewill of yours. If Christianity was not the religion of your colonizers, if it was Buddhism, today you'll be claiming to have a close relationship with Buddha.

I want you to answer for your fellow moral subjectivists. What's the matter? Am I asking for too much?

I'm not them so I can't answer for them. I know the question you're trying to ask but I won't help you make it jive till you ask it in the fitting way yourself

I disagree the Spirit is not gone, ..

The word is "in church". As is already seen the church has no Power today.

In a service with a well organized programme, 09:00AM to 12:00PM is OK.

Once you start feeling the urge to leave the presence of GOD, three things are involved.

1. The presence of the HOLY GHOST is not in the gathering.
2. You have become worn out by being too lost into the lust of the world.
3. You have not the HOLY SPIRIT in you anymore.

So, check these facts, and check yourself.

People say, "Services in those days are not as good as they are today!"

Now, let's ask ourselves, are these modern preachers doing what those preachers then do?

Offpoint1:
Max 1 hour, anything longer than that I'm out.

All those worship, praises, offering, tithing, unnecessary announcement and other stuff is ABSOLUTELY of no importance. Go to your house and do them.

A normal church should go straight to the Bible, read, preach Max of 45 minutes and dismissed.

Most annoying part are those invited ministers who are never out of stories to tell or brag about.

Let me not go to those ministers invited when church wants to raise project funds, those ones are sweet talkers.



I quit church when our branch pastor was threatened to be transferred to a remote village because he was not meeting up with headquarters financial targets.

CHURCH is strictly business venture, all pastors know this, except the sheeples call members.

All those expansion they're talking about is purposely for the financials, the top guys know this. A successful pastor is the one that always meet up with the headquarters financial targets.


If by 0000000.1 chance the Christian biblical stories of judgement day is true and the final trumpet blows today... Believe you me, Christians who will be rapture won't be up to 2.

You're just talking off point

I already asked the question in the most obvious possible way. You're being deliberately evasive.

okay, you have a point, whenever two or more are gathered in the name of Jesus, there is power. If they are looking for Jesus.

If Jesus chooses to be in the midst of people, then there is power.

If they are not, then there is no power.

Honestly, I couldn't have said it any better.

When in spirit I feel like the service should last the whole day, but when a debtor want to pay me I will wish the service should end in 5minutes

It is not how long but how well.
