For those who don't want to read the long post, here's the summary:

The Anglican Diocese of Okene in Kogi State has introduced several new resolutions following its recent Synod.

• Members must wait at least two weeks after death before burying their relatives, regardless of instructions the deceased may have given while alive.

• The Diocese says keeping the body through embalming during this period has no evil or spiritual consequences.

• External undertakers have been banned from burial programmes. The Boys Brigade in the parishes should handle such duties instead.

• Members living outside their home communities are encouraged to send at least 50% of their annual tithe to their home churches.

• The Diocese plans to identify investment opportunities and possibly provide soft loans to improve members' economic well-being.

• Churches have been directed to embark on more intentional and aggressive evangelism to increase membership.

• The third Sunday of every month will be Youth Sunday, with youths taking active roles in church programmes.

• Children will officially leave Sunday School for the adult church after completing JSS 3, with the formal transition taking place every May 27.

• The Diocese also called for stronger discipleship and Christian teaching to retain and grow its membership.

The resolutions were adopted for implementation throughout the Anglican Diocese of Okene.
The summary changes nothing

You cant control when people should bury their dead....mtheww

Ashirioluwa:
I know you’re joking.

An embalmed dead person cannot come back to life because the embalming process drains the blood and replaces it with toxic chemicals.

Although, there were some rare events that happened because medical staff incorrectly pronounced a living person dead. These people eventually woke up in the mortuary before the embalming process began. It happened before their blood was drained and injected with those toxic chemicals.

Once the embalming chemicals are injected into the body, survival is impossible.
Just watch

Dude, take the correction from the guy correcting you. Anglican and Protestant are part of the Holy Catholic Church.

The Roman Catholic Church is the one headed by the Pope, the Bishop of Rome.

Please ask your Anglican Church Bishop or pastor instead of arguing.

Various Anglican publications clearly call it part of the Catholic Church. Could you share how you managed not to read or see that? shocked shocked
Lol... How will the Anglican church be part of the catholic church when it was created in defiance to the catholic church?

Where did you get the idea that I'm an Anglican? Damn!

If the church will carry all the expenses then no problem. But if they won't, then why put the poor family into tight condition? The church should ease the deceased family's burden, not add to it.

The Lord said honour your father and your mother.

This Church is telling children to dishonour their parents who specifically gave instructions to be buried quickly

Anglican Church why nau?
For money I guess.

My father, an Anglican, asked to be buried the day he died, so I called all his relatives to come eat pounded yam and drink palmwine and hear his instructions. He was asked what if he died late in the day, and my dad said he will die early enough in the morning for his burial to be the same say.

My father died at 1am on 2 August 2016 and was buried the same day. The Anglican Church was very not happy I bet, but my father's wishes were honored, and I can now say, "Our Father, who art in heaven", with a straight face though I know he is six feet deep in the ground.

Liar!! Before a person is embalmed, most of the organs are removed, so how now?

Definately you can't comprehend despite been subtitled in English.

Embalming fluids were applied, he was deformed, etc and after some days, he came back to life from the coffin ⚰️.

Initially, you and others thought it can never be possible for any dead body that passed through embalming processing after application of fluids to come back to life and I gave you a video testimony to see that there is nothing NEW under this planet!

I comprehended perfectly Sir. I don't doubt the video you posted. He was supposedly dead for 4 days. 4 days isn't the same as 21 days! It is the 21 days claim that I am skeptical about.

In that FOUR DAYS, was he embalmed by having chemical fluids pumped through his vascular system?


Just answer YES or NO!
