Open Letter To Churches on the Idolatry of Worshipping the Dead

Open Letter To Churches on the Idolatry of Worshipping the Dead 

Churches, especially the majority of the Pentecostal denominations in Nigeria must stop their idolatry of worshipping the dead by delaying burials of churchgoers who passed away for weeks, months and even years, because of ungodly reasons such as not having enough money for the burial ceremony.

It is ungodly and wrong to have fund raising to hire buses for burial ceremony with eating and drinking and sewing uniforms when your church has failed to raise money for evangelism and charity which our Lord JESUS Christ commanded us in the Great Commission to make disciples of all nations as He said in 

Matthew 28:19 ►

"Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,"

►

OBEY THE COMMANDMENT OF JESUS CHRIST as He said in 1 John 2:4: "If anyone says, "I know Him," but does not keep His commandments, he is a liar, and the truth is not in him."

Having public ceremony for the burial of the dead is ungodly and abomination in true Christianity.

This is the idolatry of worshipping the dead by useless ceremony that is against the commandments of Almighty God.

Stop all the abominations against the Word of God.

I have seen a church having more fund raising of money for burials than evangelism and charity.

And the ministers lie that they are led by the Holy Spirit.

Which holy spirit?

A church will raise more than one million naira for a burial ceremony of a churchgoer that they failed to support financially when he was alive and struggling to make ends meet.

Then you spend hundreds of thousands of naira for his burial.

Is this true Christianity or false religion in the camouflage of Christianity.

The worst is the church that prays for the dead.

Stop the charade of the parade of fake Christianity in the idolatry of burial ceremonies.

The dead don't need your ceremonies, prayers and tears.

Mark 12:27-

 He is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living: ye therefore do greatly err.

Solemnly mourn with the bereaved and comfort them as much as you can with love.

Only the Pure in Heart will See God

Good morning.

Arise and shine.

Psalm 103 verse 5 has been written and as I have spoken the verse it is fulfilled in my life.

For He renews my youth like the Eagle's.

Only the pure in 💓 heart see God.

The impure in heart will never see God.

If you like go to church one million times;

Sing along in chorus with the choir in your eye service and lip service!

Buy gifts for your pastor and bishop and church of whited sepulchre of your conceit and deceit; 

You are a mere church goer and not a true Christian.

What makes a true Christian?

You must believe in God and worship Him in Spirit and in Truth; and you must adhere to what is written in 1 Corinthians 13.

Finis.

I am Who I am by the grace of Almighty God.
