Sussan: Well it is good but…… Lynda: is it boring…. I mean the service Sussan: That’s not what I mean though the church have modern building ,equipments but the Pastor and other ministers are preaching old fashion classical sermon. Lynda: Ah! sussan can you explain better .

Sussan: Does it really matter Lynda: Sussan you know what , there are somethings that you think does not Really matter , that really matters . Sussan: what I believe Is that your conversation , conduct or comportment is not what God will use to judge you - what does the way I live have to Do with other people – does it matter? Lynda: Are you truly born again? Sussan: Yes! Of course , why did you ask such a funny question .

Sussan: What I’m saying is that the pastor is a fanatics , In our church even choir, Usher and our pastor’s wife do wear trouser, make up and attachment to Her hair , and to tell you she preach good message. Lynda: They are prostitute on the altar, friend God will not judge you because Of the way your pastor’s wife do her thing , but according to the word Of God , the bible says ‘ women should not wear what belong to men And men also should not put women,dress anybody can disobey this rule , but the word Of God stands forever. Further Isaiah 3: 16- 17 Sussan: what I’m saying is that modern pastors do not preach old fashion Sermon . you need to preach what will motivate people to bless your Ministry , prosperity, healing, deliverance and miracle not holy holy Restitution ,sanctification , justification everyday. Lynda: it is good to preach deliverance or healing but the Word of God says seek ye first the kingdom of God and all other will be added, what happen nowadays is that people do not seek eternal things any longer but corruptible and perishable things. Sussan: Does it matter the way you dress or make up we don’t count it in our Church and our pastor preach a faith that will help you to succeed and Motivate you to the top. Lynda: Sussan are you sure you are born again . Sussan: why not is because I make up or dress corporately Lynda: Then I must confess that your life and outlook does not reflect this Profession of faith. Sussan: Look mine is not the outward reflection it is within my heart. Lynda: God words says ‘ Neither yield ye your members as instrument of Unrighteousness onto sin if you are truly born again .your entire life will be Different from hat of the unconverted . Sussan: So you mean is not good to wear body hug or make up Lynda: is it right to dress in a way that will provoke men to lust. Sussan: Any man that lusts after me is the one that has problem . Lynda: But is it good for a born again to be a stumbling block for others . 1 john 2:15 , for all that is in the world , the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the pride of life is not of the father , but is of the world . Sussan: What I’ m saying is that we don’t condemn people in our church and there Are many Christians who dress the way they like in other churches. Lynda: God says ‘thou shall not follow multitude to do evil . exodus 23: 2 ,lk 16:15 Sussan: Thank you miss preach – let’s forget sermon now I’m not ready to forgo Those stuff. LYNDA:FRIEND you need to come to reality ;we are in the world but not of the world ; are you a proffessed Christian but yet to be born again; may be you are like sussan who claim to be born again without genuine repentance,salvation experience and what it takes to be born again with water and spirit; now is the day of salvation ;come to the LORD Jesus CHRIST TODAY he will not cast you out.
