Some people get to look down at you if you aren't in a Department in the church or do stand a chance of loosing out of God's blessings.

I feel it's your personal relationship with God.

It is not a Must to a work group but it is Good to work for GOD. It pays to Serve GOD.

What is Most Important is that you don't substitute your work for GOD with your Walk with GOD.

Your Walk with GOD ( your Relationship with GOD) is Paramount and more Important than your Work for GOD.

If your Work in the Church is affecting your Walk with GOD, you better pull out from that.

Yes,I do look down on people who don't belong to any department in the church.For God's sake religion is an act of practice, put your worship into action by participating actively in church activities and not just a church goer.

It's well, no be must oh, because your pastor is compelling you to do it doesn't mean you should, no go build person business without you being paid.

I design and build hit me up via WhatsApp.

That is bullshit... It is not a must, Don't let pastors guilt trip into ing bany department.
Let it be out of your own free will and make sure that even if you , the church activities don't affect your personal and professional life.
The reason why I'm saying this is that the church will most likely not pay you for any services you give because according to them, "you're doing it for God".

So whether you wanna or not is definitely up to you.

On point

As a youthful person you have to be useful

In my opinion, I don't think it is a must for you to work in any department

It is just a way of being close with brothers who share the same faith with and to see that church ( which is you and I) is organised and to make some services readily available like those who work in health department and law department)

It is also a way of firming a smaller unit to care for each other and provide help and assistance to one another

It will be easier to render help to those who may need it and to care for one another

It should be a voluntary decision for none who wants to be part of it most especially

Why?
Bench warming sef na department

It's a choice not a must!

Not must

Just be faithful in your tithes, that's all that matters to the pastor in this Buhari era, g group isn't so important cos if you don't another person will, but if you don't pay your tithes, the monthly target reduces and the pastor might loose his job.

This I have seen.

People like us wey no dey go church at all nko

The way those pastors or workers look down on people who are not workers in the church is so condescending and that's bad.

Not being a worker in church does not mean u will lose out on ANY blessing.

Don't be deceived. Being a worker in church is solely out of one's volition.

The real question is: is it a must to a church?

Your question na phase 2.

Not compulsory but necessary

I feel so irritated seeing or hearing the expression "is it a must..."?

Simply say "is it compulsory...", or "is it mandatory.."?

Why English language dey hard una like this?

So people can resolve little issues like this on their own, but have to bring it to nairaland. Confused people everywhere

Exodus 23:25-26 says it all

.

It is expected for every Christian to serve in a department unit in church.

Jesus has given us gifts to serve and we all will give of our gifts to God.

it is not a must but it is for our benefit it is called Sunday service so we go to church to serve u don't just go to church sit down, hear preaching and go


is not by force though

With due respect sir, please clarify.

OMG!

In your mind, ing a department in church is putting your worship into action.

You are a senior church goer. Now, I know.

Matt 7: 22-23

You sincerely need to re-evaluate your Christianity. "Madam high and mighty" Prov 21:4

Yes it is always good to a department in the church, because at the long run, when you are no more, that department would be the one to fight and stand with you....

You have spoken well

Not a must… what’s the essence of ing a department when it’s only for show off to please human.

It happens when the Pastor wants to make you think that you're working for God, instead of working to his EMPIRE.
