Chris Okotie, senior pastor of the Household of God Church International Ministries, says Nigeria is on the threshold of a major crisis.
In a statement, Okotie, however, said the forces holding Nigeria hostage will be defeated, after which the nation would experience a rebirth.
The cleric’s statement is in reaction to an earlier sermon by one Bosun Emmanuel, said to be a representative of the Nigeria Christian Elders Forum (NCEF).
An audio sermon which was released in July 2014, wherein Emmanuel claimed that Nigeria will be faced with security challenges, made the rounds on social media recently.
However, Okotie dismissed the claim, stating that Emmanuel’s comments were taken from a position of “ignorance”.
“The message from Bosun Emmanuel is arrant heterodoxy deriving from abysmal ignorance of sound biblical interpretation of visions and revelations,” Okotie said.
“Nigeria is not a theocratic state like Israel. It is a client nation for God. There is a vast difference. Nigeria is at the cusp of a major crisis which is a precursor to its rebirth. Pristine forces which have been a perennial impediment to the fulfillment of Nigeria’s prophetic destiny are about to be pulverised.
“God cannot judge the body of Christ. That would be tantamount to judging Christ a second time. This is blasphemy at its apogee. We must compare spiritual things with spiritual to engender sound biblical interpretation.
“Let charlatans and self styled prophets avoid the electrifying currents of eschatology where deep calleth unto deep.”
