The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) through its provincial headquarters on Lagos Island has cancelled a three-day outdoor crusade of one its parishes.
The cancellation came after the criticism that followed the invitation of the Fuji musician Wasiu Alabi Pasuma as a guest artist for the crusade.
Pasuma’s picture appeared on the handbill advert alongside the gospel singer Tope Alabi and a former band leader of the late Fela Anikulapo’s Egypt 80 band, Kereke Jike.
Naij.com gathered that the decision to stop the programme was because the church headquarters felt the idea to bring Pasuma and his fans to the church was not well conceived. A source who spoke on condition of anonymity said the organisers did not do a detailed consultation before going ahead with the programme.
He also said that as a result the programme has been cancelled and the pastor in charge of the church along with the organising committee has also been suspended as they now await sanction for dragging the name of the church into the mud.
The crusade organised by Province 20 and tagged ‘Lagos Island Family areas forum’ was expected to feature Pastor Keji Hamilton and billed for Friday, October 23 to Sunday, October 25.
We further learned it was a fan of the Fuji lord who worked at the press where the posters and fliers were being printed who leaked the artwork of the posters and fliers of the event.
A few months ago a church was criticized for inviting a secular singer, Mavin Records’ Korede Bello, to perform his hit single ‘Godwin’ during the Sunday service.
The Body of christ need to be more sensitive, and operate in dimension of wisdom and the fear of God than ever before, it is time we appropriately deal with all the skims of the devil and honor God's presence and the gathering of his saints, bringing secualr singers to church on a holy altar is an abomination, we need the spirit of God to come down and this is only possible through inspirational songs by consecrated and spirit filled ministers and true worshippers not musicians and Christless singers.
I just imagine, how it will feel to have this kind of poster made in the 1st place, Pastor EA Adeboye of the redeem christian church is a man after God's Own heart, he loves the lord, he serves the lord, he laid the foundation and sort the soul of men to be converted and redeem into the kingdom of Light, so we should not do anything to tarnish the image of this great ministry that God as emerged to see to it that the kingdom of God is established on earth, Thank God the right measures as been take,
The devil will not prevail over our church in Jesus name amen!!!
An altar should be a place of fire and not for entertainment. The planning committee did not do a good work. Their strategy was wrong. The church took the right decision. In this end time the Devil is craftily at work. Only the sensitive can see the move of the Devil in this end time. God bless you.
