The General Overseer United Church of Christ (UCC) Fountain of Peace, Bishop Prof. Ezenna Amobi Egbo has urged Christians across the country to go beyond dancing and clapping in the church and develop a personal relationship with God.

The clergy who gave this advice in an interaction with ABN TV in Enugu on Friday said closeness with God has remained a challenge in the Christian fold, appealing that frantic efforts should be made for a personal communion with God.

While underlining that it is not easy these days because of economic hardship, he also cited societal events as some of the factors that draw Christians away from God.

Bishop Egbo however expressed hope that the grace of God remains sufficient, noting that God is able to adequately take care of every challenge.

He also expressed gratitude to God for blessing the Director of ABN TV, Mr. Ifeanyi Okali with a child after 11 years of marriage.

Agreed

Well said.
... This is because such persons -without a personal relationship/ convictions/ encounter with God- are usually the first casualty of the strange winds of doctrines blowing here and there in these times we are in...

Ephesians 4:14- 15 (KJV) That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;
But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:

Just the fact.

make i drop comment

AntiChristian:


Which sight you get?

Now listen: Christianity is more than going to places of worship & doing regular service, prayers etc.
It's about living like Jesus Christ (Yeshua, Issa).
It's about saying the truth and following it, shunning worldliness, haphazard behaviours, having the audacity to face evil & conquer it, knowing deeply the words of God and following it. Standing for truth always.


Now to you this mofo called AntiChristian, it's good you are a Christian so that infidels with borrowed brain from Arabia won't hide under religion of piss and be marrying under age girls like dia prophet!

this thing wey u write, he make sense for your eyes?
This is the 21st century, eyes Don open and you can deduce that from preachings nowadays... You can only be brainwashed if you allow yourself most people go to church nowadays to get connected to God not because of the preacher or anybody. I come to your church, you preach about tipatipa giving. I can voluntarily give if I see a genuine course, you force me, I fit deck you into coma

Christains are jokers, going to church to dance and wear skimpy clothes and saying they are worshipping God, such an embarrassment of a religion

Personal relationship with God is Knowing God for yourself. People would pray for you, but you understand your situation better. Pray for yourself, have faith for yourself, go to God for yourself, have intimate relationships with God.

Denominations are not the church...pleaseeeeee

A tall order for most Nigerian Christians

Dem no dey tell person. When ADEBOYE deceive una well enter grave una go wise

Salvation is personal, but you must buy bible. God knows everyone heart with its struggle..
