Nigerians singer, Simi has taken to her twitter handle to advise her fans against submitting wholeheartedly to their pastors and appearing to take them as their God. In a series of tweets posted on Thursday, the singer said God has given His Children the opportunity to communicate directly with him stressing that no single pastor was closer to God than ordinary people.
Some of her tweets read;
“Guys, your pastor is not God. God has given you the power to communicate with him directly. Hes ur Father! Don’t let any pastors bully you into submitting out of fear to a God of love. Your pastor ‘might be’ anointed but so are you! Seen a lot of people make obviously stupid, life0-changing decisions because 'pastors said'. Some of these people, are very close to me. We can't leave our lives and choices in the hands of ministers, when God has empowered us as
The genuine ones are teachers and spiritual leaders. They can help us learn and even become better Christians, but you should never idolize ur pastor. In God’s eyes, you are no less. Plus they are human beings and not infallible."
Daddy Freeze had sustained this preachment for several months now. The On Air Personality took his teachings further by calling on Christians not to pay tithes to pastors. Recently, he established an online church. Whether Simi is one of his new convert, time shall tell.
