Pastor Chris Oyakhilome, founder of Love World Incorporated,
aka Christ Embassy, has described pastors who supported the closure of churches
amid coronavirus pandemic as not ‘prayerful’.
Oyakhilome during a recent sermon in a viral video, said the
pastors and leaders of churches who held meetings with the government over the
lockdown of churches were never truly for Christ.
According to him, the clergymen should have told the
government to allow them to go and pray against the disease before giving go
ahead to lockdown churches.
“In different cities, countries, states, before the
government went ahead with the lockdown, they held meetings with pastors,
leaders of churches. Why did the pastors and leaders not say give us a few days
to go and pray? Because they were not prayerful before.
“As a Minister of God, you were called for such a meeting
and you couldn’t say give us a few days to call other Ministers and say this is
what we just heard from the government authorities and we need to pray. We have
asked them to give us three days. Then you would have seen the hand of God,” he
said.
According to him, if the pastors had insisted on praying
before making their decision, they would have see the hand of God.
He added that most of the pastors warning church members
against churches have never known God as the master of their life.
“They were not thinking about the father’s house when they
made the decision. Do you know what it is for you to shut down the
congregations of the lord? It never meant anything to you, that is why.
“Even the pastors and Ministers are warning others not to
enter the church because of coronavirus. This is because Christ has never truly
being your lord and you have been the master of your life. You have never
truely known him,” Oyakhilome added.
Despite the ease of lockdown in most States in Abuja, the
government had insisted that religious gatherings be banned till further
notice.
