Just Incase you’re wondering why Pastor Chris is trending pic.twitter.com/2x54kP7RAh— Ebuka Akara (@iamakaraboy) July 11, 2019
Nigerians on social media have
been left divided over a video which shows Pastor Chris Oyakhilome of Christ
Embassy saying that “husband means master”, and “not the male partner in a
marriage” as widely held today.
Pastor Chris Oyakhilome made this
known while giving a sermon to his congregation on marriage.
The clergyman warned wives
against opposing their husband in public, which he says is a sign that they do
not recognize the anointing of God’s spirit.
“Do you know the meaning of
husband?”, he asked.
“I think some of you don’t know.
You think husband means the male partner in a marriage.
Chris Oyakhilome went on to
define what husband truly means, which made his congregation give a loud cheer
in approval of his words.
“Husband does not mean the male
partner in a marriage. Husband means master. That’s what it means, not the male
partner in a marriage”.
He added that the failure to
acknowledge the role of the husband is “the reason there are problems among
Christians in their marriage”.
“Marriage in Christianity for
most people is just a flop. Why? Because they don’t agree with God’s definition,
they have theirs. They believe they are equal partners”.
He went on to give an instance of
how the position of a husband is disregarded today.
“Listen to two people that have
just gotten married. A lot of times, it’s the woman that speaks first”.
He continued by revealing the
reason why God made woman.
“If you want to live according to
the Bible, according to the scriptures, then understand what the word says. The
reason God made woman was because of man. He made the woman because of the man,
that’s why he made the woman. So, woman was not his original idea”, he said.
Speaking on the biggest problem
women have today in regards to marriage, the clergyman said:
“If most women had their father
bold enough to talk to them, they’ll be very successful in their marriage and
they’ll be very happy people. Most women have never been taught by their
parents, their fathers particularly. That’s their biggest problem. They don’t
know who a man is. They think he’s another woman. You see, in a marriage, you
have the man who is the head of that union. And because he’s the head of that
union, it is important to understand him. Now, you think “he’s the one that
needs to understand his wife”. That is where you are wrong. He will, but until
you know who you have married”.
The sermon which was applauded by
some social media users was however labeled as archaic by some who questioned
why his own marriage ended in divorce. See screenshots below.
