The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God
(RCCG), Pastor E.A. Adeboye, has urged Christians to defend themselves against
attackers.
Adeboye said this while reacting to the high rate of
insecurity in the country and incessant attacks on the church
Lately, churches in Nigeria have suffered deadly attacks
with the recent being on a church in Owo, Ondo State, where scores were killed
and many injured.
Speaking at the July Holy Ghost congress on Saturday,
Adeboye said there is nowhere in the bible that God said a child of God can not
defend himself.
The cleric said it is now in the hands of the Children of
God to defend themselves amidst rising insecurity in Nigeria.
According to him, when God is silent, it simply means it is
now the responsibility of his children to act.
“I don’t want to say much because I know some people may
want to twist it but I have searched the bible from cover to cover and there is
nowhere in the bible where God said a child of God cannot defend himself, If
you find the place let me know.
”He said that if they slap you on the right cheek, turn
left, He said that one. If they now slap the left, what did he say? When God is
silent, do you know the meaning of that, it simply means over to you.”
“I am only talking to my children. Only my children come to
the Holy Ghost Service,” he added.
Adeboye also prayed that every enemy of the church will be
consumed if they don’t repent.
