Chris Oyakhilome, founder and president of LoveWorld Incorporated better known as Christ Embassy, says there are curses for those who criticise men of God.
In his new year message to his congregation on Thursday, the clergyman said people should steer clear of criticising ministers of God.
Oyakhilome said people should rather leave them to God to judge, adding that only those ignorant of the consequences would indulge in calling out pastors.
“I usually tell those in my ministry, don’t criticise God’s people, especially the ministers of God. Leave them alone for the Bible says ‘whatever they do, they do them unto the Lord,” he said.
“You’re not the one to accuse another man’s servant. Don’t join anybody to criticise other ministers. I tell my family members the same thing. Leave them alone because there are curses against those who do so.
“If you do, you find out sickness won’t leave your home, there would always be one terrible thing about your family. So, don’t join those who do that, they are ignorant.”
He also advised people to desist from “waging war” against the church of God, describing it as a revered institution which cannot be defeated.
“Don’t let any man push you against the church of Christ, it doesn’t matter what your political position is. Refuse to accept anyone telling you to destroy the church,” he added.
“Whatever you want to do, do it, but don’t touch the church of God. I warn you, leave the churches of God alone. The church of God cannot be defeated.”
The cleric made the headlines in 2020 over his controversial claims about the coronavirus pandemic and the introduction of 5G networks.
