Famous preacher, Pastor Chris Oyakhilome of Believers Love World, popularly known as Christ Embassy has taken some Nigerian pastors who have refused to reopen their churches because of the Coronavirus pandemic to the cleaners.
He said; “If you refuse to open church for fear of being infected, you were never a believer.”
“This is a great concern because there were churches that were thought to be churches until recently. We find a lot of ministers who were thought to be advocates of the gospel advocating for shutting down the churches because they cannot guarantee safety.”
“It is pressure like this that reveals what is a church and what is not. Do they really believe in God, the same God of the patriarchs in the Bible?”
“When you get to that point where you are afraid of opening churches for fear of being infected, you have denied the faith. You never believed.”
Oyakhilome said this on Wednesday, August 19th, 2020 while addressing his members.
