Pastor Chris Oyakhilome has lambasted pastors who are yet to reopen their churches, despite government’s directive for worship centres to reopen.

According to him: “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.”
