Pastor Philip's Word Assembly Holds 2 ENDSARS Themed Services by AltMon1: 4:15pm On Oct 25, 2020
Word Assembly headquarters, today, celebrated an #ENDSARS themed service, dedicating the entire 2 services to the recent happenings in the state.

The service which included interactive sessions and discussions by the audience was well attended by hundreds of people who shared their perspectives on the happenings and proffered a solution to the issue on ground. The service also included a minute silence to honor the fallen heroes of this struggle for a better nation, and also #ENDSARS branded refreshment for everyone present.

In a brief sermon titled 'The Cry |For Justice", the senior pastor of Word Assembly, Pastor Philip Igbinijesu, through a broadcast, said he was fully for the fight against brutality, stressing that it is impossible for well-meaning righteous people to be silent in the face of so much injustice, wickedness, and unrighteousness because that will be inconsistent with the very nature of God. The Pastor who is a lawyer by training, described the efforts of the youths as an incredible distinction that they brought into the cry for justice while condemning the brigandage and destruction that later ensued, he stated that everyone who has been following the protest knows that it was not a product of the peaceful #ENDSARS protesters unless the person wants to be deliberately negative, adding that destroying our national assets is not the way to go as it only hurts us. He described the call to END SARS as just a token of the many injustices in Nigeria that the youths are crying for while stressing that Word Assembly as a church stands with the youths and will do whatever it can to facilitate and support the pursuit to see justice and equity established.

He said that no nation or society that despise justice and abuse equity never thrives and that while the protest is a welcome development, it is, however, coming late, wishing it had been done years earlier, adding that as Christians, every time we keep quiet on sighting evil, we become participatory.

He encouraged the youths to continue to cry out until we see a change in the nation. he said when you keep silent to injustice, it will surely come to everyone someday, no matter what sphere you are in.
