CHRISTMAS IS IDOLATROUS - PASTOR KUMUYI!

Well, it is without doubt that Jesus Christ was not born on Christmas day. The day is just a form of commemoration of joy and appreciation of the kindness and mercy bestowed on us by Jesus Christ. 



Whilst we are all going about preparing to celebrate christmas and what it
means ,a shocker has been dropped by a man of God..he warns his church
members to desist from celebrating the season for reasons underlined below

Kumuyi made the statement on Saturday December 21,2013 at the
church’s annual national December convention at the church’s camp
ground in Ogun state.

he says

“We don’t celebrate Christmas. It actually came from idolatrous background.
That is why you don’t hear us sing what they call Christmas carol, Never!

We always say it is the December retreat. We are only gathering together
because it is the holiday period and love the lord more, and rededicate
ourselves more.

When you find anybody coming in, or any leader, trying to introduce
the idolatry of mystery Babylon, that they call Christmas and you want
to bring all the Christmas carol saying that is the day that Jesus was born,
and you don’t find that in the Acts of the Apostles or in the early church,
then you don’t find that in the church either. If you don’t know that before,
now you know.

We are not trying to make the church turn like the world. We want it to be
like Jesus Christ, and more like the Apostles. If you don’t have that mind
with us, then you have permission to go to other places.”

Monsignor Gabriel Osu, the Director of Social Communications,
Catholic Archdiocese of Lagos responded to the statement.

“I don’t know what he means by saying the practice of celebrating
Christmas is wrong.Is he saying that Christ wasn’t born? That he didn’t
come to die for us? Does he not celebrate his own birthday? Do Kumuyi’s
pastors not celebrate him? It is not everything I react to; some people just seek
attention. If Kumuyi is a Christian, then he must believe in Christ.

The celebration of Christmas didn’t just start today; it is too public an
event for anyone to say that they don’t know what it is about. If Kumuyi
is condemning the commercialisation of Christmas, I can understand that.
Christ came to redeem us from our lost state; this was actualised through
his coming, his birth; that is why we celebrate Christmas. It is the fulfilment
of God’s promise

I saw him on the television a few days ago. He was in Akwa Ibom State
and was the chief preacher during their Christmas celebration event.

Kumuyi is just saying what he feels; he is not making any doctrinal statement.”
