Sinach, Frank Edwards, Joe Praize, Eben, Turned The Church To Party Place – Pastor Chris
The founder of Love World, also known as Christ Embassy, Pastor Chris Oyakhilome, has narrated how some top Musicians in the Church turned it into a party place.
The Cleric stated this while speaking on why some gospel artists left the church.
Didactic Information Hut recalls that some prominent singers such as Sinach, Frank Edwards, Joe Praize, and Eben have left the Ministry with many speculations surrounding their exits.
Many People alleged that they left because of restrictions placed on ministering outside Christ Embassy.
Particularly, Pastor Chris became displeased as Sinach’s international music ministry grew, making her scarce at Christ Embassy.
But, it is believed that Oyakhilome asked her to return and actively participate in the church’s singing ministry.
In a recent trending online video, Pastor Chris said: “Why did it happen? The church was turned into a party place, not a place of prayer where God’s word was truly celebrated. They were not soul winners; they led praise in church, and when it was time for prayers, they were gone.”
Pastor Chris also decried that worship in the church had changed, becoming more about personal celebrations than true worship. He accused the musicians of commercialising their talents, charging fees for their performances, and allowing secular influences to infiltrate the church’s music.
“I did at the beginning and celebrated them, but when I changed, they refused to change with me, so I had to let them go.
“God was getting my attention, telling me this was not the way. I told them the Lord wanted us to do the right thing.
“They had become too popular, and because they were making even little money… do they know what big money is? The little money they were making was too attractive to them, so they didn’t want to follow me. So they made a detour. I hope they all repent. They are not worship leaders,” he stated.
