| Same Sex Marriage: The World Is Challenging The Church- Monsignor Osigweh by Damianobi(op): 4:42pm On Jul 19, 2015 |
CATHOLIC priest, Rev. Monsignor Sylvester Osigweh has condemned same sex marriage currently being promoted by the West including the United States which recently voted in favour of the anti-social behavior, arguing that the world is gradually challenging the Church. Monsignor Osigweh of St. Mary’s Catholic Church, Ifo in Ogun State, who recently celebrated his 76th birthday anniversary, in his pre-birthday sermon, lamented, why America known as ‘God’s own country’ should contradict morality with self gratifying excesses. His word: “The world is now challenging the Church which is the central controller of morality in the world. The introduction of these things; man marrying man, woman marrying woman…I say, it is against God’s recommendation. But they are trying to control and condemn God’s recommendation.” He encouraged those are steadfast in the belief that God had instituted marriage to be between one man and one women should not be swayed by current wave of un-Godly doctrines, stressing “anything that has to do with a man marrying another man is immoral and criminal. It is against God’s rules.” Osigweh who is also the Spiritual Director of ‘Jesus is Love and Power Catholic Healing Ministry’, stressed the need for Christians to remain steadfast in the Lord. “The world is full of evil people who are promoting evil. All these things belong to the world. They are trying to recruit you into their immoral life with all manner of gimmickry into the world. Jesus, in one of his sermons said, ‘the road that leads to heaven is narrow and rough while the one to hell fire is broad and alluring. All they are looking for is earthly pleasure, merriment, freedom which they abuse,” he stated. Continuing, he warned Christians; “do not patronize it and never recommend it to anyone,” sympathizing with President Barrack Obchat who, he said, found himself in a leadership position among very powerful and influential Congressmen. “America will love the good things about you and because they cannot be you, will want to contradict and influence you. I think Obama should not be blamed in this matter because he couldn’t have done otherwise because of the power play in the Congress. “However, children of God should remain steadfast in serving and worshiping God always. Nobody should think that it will be all rosy or bitter all the time. God has his way for every individual. It is the way an individual understands his way that will make God allow him to operate. If your choice is good or bad, He will allow it. He has already spoken; never you do wrong, follow the right way and do the right thing,” Osigweh said.

I want you to prove Radio Biafra wrong by answering these questions. (1) Do you have light in your village ? (2) Do you have running water in your village ? (3) Do you have good road to your village ? (4) Do you have good Hospital and why politicians never go there for treatment ? (5) Do you have standard University and why your Politicians send their kids abroad ? (6) Do you have a Job or Is there any Job opportunity in your place ? (7) Is there any security ? 8 Even some people that are working, are their salaries paid and how much is their salary ? (9) Who can tell me what he or she has gained as a Nigerian since you were born ? (10) Can we be sincere to each other, Do we love our selves? I mean Hausas, Biafrans and Yorubas? and tell me our relationship in nature. (11) Can someone tell me the most tribe that has been killed and who killed them? And also tell me the most hated tribe and who hate them and why ? (12) Can someone tell me if we Biafrans had killed anyone from Hausas or Yorubas before ? and have we been killed by them before and why ? (13) Which people provided the most number of Presidents in Nigeria since 1960 ? (14) Which tribe are the killers in Nigeria ? (15) Which tribe are the poorest in Nigeria ? (16) Which people have the key positions in Nigeria (17) Which people are desperate to take power in Nigeria ? (18) Which people have the most oil block in Nigeria ? (19) Which people have the most compound fools and illiterates in Nigeria ? (20) Can you give your life to defend Nigeria as your country ? GOD BLESS BIAFRANS..You claim you have the highest population yet you are afraid to have your own country.You claim the Igbos are the problem of Nigeria and you hate them with passion yet you don't want to let them go.You claim the Igbos have dominated your land yet you are still willing to sale your lands and properties to them.You claim you are born to rule yet you still want us to believe in one Nigeria.You claim we are one yet our religion,tradition and other ways of life are far different.You claim we are brothers yet Igbos are the first to be targeted whenever there is uprising.You claim agitation for Biafra is illegal yet you don't want to address the injustice against the Igbos. You claim the Igbos are not united yet you are killing and bombing yourselves.You said no victor no vanquished yet you still make the Igbos to feel the pain of the civil war.You claim Igbos refused to vote for APC yet you want democracy to survive in Nigeria.Igbos have largely contributed to the development of this nation yet they are not appreciated.These have made the actualization of sovereign state of Biafra inevitable and no hand is large enough to cover the rising sun because we are the children of the most high.In Biafra we hope in Biafra we believe. |
