 .

 RELIGIOUS LEADERS AS MAJOR STAKEHOLDERS IN THE AFFAIRS OF MAN MUST STRIVE TO BE ABOVE  BOARD AND SEE THEMSELVES AS AGENTS THAT GOD IS USING TO ROLL OUT DIVINE GUIDANCE FOR THE BENEFITS OF HUMANITY. 

        

PREACHING IN AN ONLINE MESSAGE ENTITLED "COWARDS IN CASSOCK",THE GENERAL OVERSEER OF VICTORY LIFE BIBLE CHURCH, ABEOKUTA, APOSTLE LAWRENCE ACHUDUME INFORMED THAT THE TIME HAS COME FOR RELIGIOUS LEADERS TO LIVE UP TO EXPECTATIONS AND TAKE THEIR PROPER PLACE IN THE SCHEME OF THINGS STRESSING THAT AS CARRIERS OF GOD'S POWER, THEY MUST ENSURE THAT THEY ARE HELD IN HIGH ESTEEM. 

          

APOSTLE ACHUDUME WHO WANTS HIS COLLEAGUES IN CASSOCK TO ALWAYS UPHOLD THE INJUNCTIONS OF GOD AND DIVINE INSTRUCTION POSITED THAT CLERGYMEN SHOULD DESIST FROM TWISTING THE WORDS OF GOD FOR THEIR SELFISH GAINS. 

ACCORDING TO THE VLBC GENERAL OVERSEER,ANY CLERIC THAT IS WORTHY OF HIS CALLING SHOULD BE BOLD TO SPEAK AGAINST ALL FORMS OF INJUSTICES AGAINST HUMANITY WITHOUT MINDING WHOSE OX IS GORED. 

         

POINTING OUT THAT EVERYONE WILL GIVE ACCOUNT OF HIS DEEDS ON EARTH, APOSTLE ACHUDUME HARPED ON THE NEED TO IMBIBE THE FEAR OF GOD AND TO ALWAYS RENDER SELFLESS SERVICE TO HUMANITY. 

     

ACCORDING TO HIM,THE WORD OF GOD SHOULD NOT BE COMPROMISED UNDER ANY GUISE JUST AS HE STRESSED THE IMPORTANCE OF INTERGRITY AND UNITY AMONG RELIGIOUS LEADERS.
