A Nigerian missionary priest serving in Gambia, Rev Fr
Kelvin Ugwu has claimed that the devil would only need to destroy the Catholic
church in order to wipe Christianity off the earth.
The Catholic priest stated this in a post on his verified
Facebook page while reacting to the controversial document endorsed by Pope
Francis regarding same-s_x marriage.
Recall that report emerged earlier in the week, indicating that
the Vatican approved blessings for same-s_x couples.
This development has stirred controversies across the world,
as many Christians, including some Catholic bishops distanced themselves from
the document.
Some unbelievers have also taken to social media to ridicule
Christians over the development.
But Fr Kelvin in his reaction, urged his followers to steer
clear of posts and discussions mocking the Christian faith.
He said, “This is not the time for mockery. Don’t join those
who have been looking for this opportunity to ridicule our faith in Christ.
“For Christians all over the world, I say this, if the devil
wants to scatter this Christian faith kpatakpata, all he needs to do is to
destroy the Catholic church. You may not see it, but I don’t pray you see it
ever.”
The priest lamented the ambiguity in the document issued by
the Vatican, stressing that the undetailed content birthed the controversies.
“A document that almost every Bishop had to explain and
clarify to their diocesan people, the Catholic Bishops conferences had to
explain, and priests had to explain to their parishioners both online and
offline, is not a good document.
“Yes, the document did not say much or make any clear
stipulations, and that is basically the problem with the document. What it did
not say is more devastating than what it was trying to say”, he added.
