Queen Mercy, a reality celebrity, has openly criticized Pastor Kingsley Okonkwo, the founder of David’s Christian Centre, for his recent assertion that men are not required by the Bible to provide for women.
Remember, there were conflicting responses to the sermon on the internet. The pastor claimed in his lecture that the cultural notion that men should be the only providers is not based on any biblical command.
In response, Mercy wrote in opposition to the clergyman’s;
“Dear Pastor Kingsley, I truly appreciate and love your ministry. I regularly listen to your marriage sermons, and they have been a tremendous blessing to me. However, I respectfully disagree with you on this. The Bible clearly states that the man is the head of his wife (Ephesians 5:23, 1 Corinthians 11:3), and the woman is his helpmeet (Genesis 2:18).”
“A helper is meant to support not to carry the entire burden. She is there to assist when things aren’t going well, not to shoulder every responsibility in the home. To me, this is quite self-explanatory. By putting this message out, it seems you may be encouraging a shift where men feel less obligated to provide, while women are increasingly expected to take on that role.”
“The reality is that many women are already functioning as providers, and though your intention may not be to promote that imbalance, such messages can inadvertently reinforce it. I believe it’s important to be mindful of how such narratives are received, as they may lead some men to neglect their “God given”responsibilities. With love and respect.”
Live with Purpose, Love with Passion. Remember to be happy
One ❤️❤️❤️
