The Leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, has said that Christianity has been reduced to a means of extorting church members by some pastors.
In an Easter message signed by his media aide, Osho Oluwatosin, Primate Ayodele made it known that there is too much hate among churches and that leaders are more concerned about beautiful edifices instead of instilling the teachings of Jesus Christ.
“There is no love in Christianity, there is no religious tolerance, it’s time we put religion aside, it’s killing us in Nigeria and bringing woes to our worship.
“There is too much hate among churches, and there is no leadership capacity in Christianity again,” he said.
The prophet stated that men of God were looking for ways to acquire wealth and going from country to country.
He noted that the world would be a better place if Christian leaders could live as Jesus did, a life of selflessness, love, tolerance, and peace.
“We don’t develop human capacity but edifice. We are looking to acquire wealth and going from country to country for revival.
“The world would be better if we could emulate the life of Christ,” he said.
Furthermore, Primate Ayodele made it known that the leadership aura in Christianity had drastically reduced, and instead of celebrating a Happy Easter, a lot of Christians are crying.
He said: “There is no sincerity in relationships in Christianity; the leadership aura in Christianity has derailed.
“There is nothing like Happy Easter because people, Christians, are shedding tears internally.
“Christians are crying because pastors continue to extort members. This isn’t the kind of life Jesus Christ died for.
“Love has finished, good relationship has finished, the spiritual prowess in Christianity is no longer there, there isn’t good leadership in Christendom, there isn’t love anywhere, and genuine God’s presence is rare.”
