The General Overseer of the Deeper Christian Life Ministry, Pastor W.F Kumuyi, has again warned members of the church against celebrating Christmas, saying the annual celebration of Christmas is idolatrous and unscriptural. http://www.punchng.com/news/christmas-is-idolatrous-kumuyi/ 1 Like |

It's a pagan tradition,no doubt. For one,we don't know exactly when Jesus was born. We only give speculation about the day we think he was born,which may not be true. It shouldn't be about celebrating December 25th,rather it should be about celebrating Jesus. 62 Likes |

Sometimes I wonder how some people reason! You claim people should not celebrate xmas because it has links to roman gods, do you know that everyday of the week is dedicated and name after a roman god? Do you know the meaning of SUNday? 55 Likes |

Actualy the bible did not give us the specific date when Jesus was born. We are only guesing about about the date, nobody is 100 percent sure of, when Jesus was born, therefore i may choose a particular date, and name it chrismas , and i begin to celebrate on that day, each year, it is not an offence nor do i comited any sin .nowwhat matter most is the motive behind it. 13 Likes |

KUMUYI is a nobody in the scheme of things!. His children do not even obey his church declared doctrines talkless of me. Remember the white wedding and daughter inlaw makeup things? Na im wahala be dat. I'm sure if you visit his children on the 25th, they sef will be celebrating Christmas! 31 Likes |

sureteeboy: The pastor in a message Doesn't this sound contradictory?. If Christ is to be celebrated everyday. Is December 25 not inclusive? I even noticed Kumuyi is on facebook. omg has anyone told him that the founder of facebook is not even a Christian. I also thought TV is not in the bible but it looks like he was on TV too. Facebook, TV's etc are not in the bible o but him and his members are using them. So he not only allows his members use them,but he too? Well I guess he's just seeking attention Because since after he was caught on camera smiling from cheek to cheek at his son's wedding when the wife was dressed in everything he preaches against(more like a wedding made in hell fire), I concluded he probably agrees that nothing is wrong with some of those things he condemns. It's always the members that will carry everything he says on their head. I wont be surprised if him and his children are caught on camera again rocking Christmas celebration(afterall his sermon suggests that Christmas should be celebrated everyday not only December 25th) I also hope he doesn't hold church services on Sundays until he shows where sunday was mentioned in the bible and since when sunday worship became scriptural He even travels by flight while Jesus travelled with donkey.smh. 90 Likes |

I've heard it several times ? BUT, Whether Our Lord Jesus Christ was born on Christmas day or not is immaterial to me ?. The most important thing is that a Saviour was born to salvage mankind from God's wrath . If Christ was not born, my life would have been miserable. Thank you Lord for giving us Jesus Christ. 80 Likes |

They are indirectly celebrating christmas hiding under the guise that its public holiday, hence converge coz they love the Lord more. If it's not scriptural, atleast he should show us the courtesy of telling us the bible verse that says its idolatrous. 3 Likes |

Some historical views a lot of us hold here are uninformed. We give undue credits to pagan religion by saying pagan worshipers started this or that. Come to think of it; an event, either of religious belief or not, must have its origin started from somewhere. Paganism in the real sense of the word isn`t a religion, paganism to those of past generations was meant to be a way of life they lived. The vain among them personalised a custom which was a way of living life to them as a religion. Let Joy, Love, Peace, Compasion, Kindness and other fruits of the spirit live in our hearts, pagan religion will vanish because people will stop patronizing herbalist and joining witch-craft e.t.c Since all needs and good desires are easily met. A man who is comfortable and contented with what he has, will never seek spiritual means to satisfy his belly or vain desires by switching to pagan religion. 2 Likes |
