RCCG Altar Not For Male Pastors With Braids – Adeboye

The General Overseer of Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has reprimanded pastors who rock braided hair and clergywomen donning fake eyelashes and excessive makeup.

While speaking at his church’s annual convention recently, Adeboye warned similar trends among workers of the church will henceforth not be permitted.

“In Yorubaland, the only men who braid hair are the priests of Sango, the god of thunder. They say this is a new age and that we must be adaptable to what is going on. To continue as Sango priests? Not in this mission. Even after I’m gone, it will still not happen.

“Take this word from me. When we find anybody among pastors, particularly female pastors, made up to look like a representative of Nollywood, we will walk her off the altar.

“You may not like it. If you are my children, you can’t kill me. Do you know why men don’t makeup? I mean, real men. It’s because we have what is called a superiority complex. We stand before the Lord and say, ‘God, You did a good job creating us. You made no mistake.’”

Speaking further, the 82-year-old cleric said; “When you begin to fix false nails, I wonder what you want to achieve – If God wanted to make you a bird, He would have given you a false nail and false eyelashes.”

He exhorted those who take delight in appearing odd to repent and be modest.

“You can quote me: Tell anybody who questioned why you are doing this drastic change, tell him or her, “Daddy GO said so,” he asserted.

The cleric stated that any lady who exposes her boobs believes that she is ugly and needs to distract the attention from her face.

“She wants to divert attention from her face. She believes she is ugly, so the man will be lured. All my daughters listen to me: You are fearfully and wonderfully made. If anybody does not like you the way you are, it’s that person’s loss,” he said.

A Gentle Reminder: Every obstacle is a stepping stone, every morning; a chance to go again, and those little steps take you closer to your dream.
