The General Overseer, Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye has come hard on women who make up on their wedding days. According to GO, women who do make-up and paint their faces during their weddings are fools.
Adeboye made the stunning remark during one of the ministers’ conference at its National Convention on Lagos-Ibadan Expressway. He stated that people who do such things are simply saying they did not like the way God created them.
The GO also lamented that some people in Redeemed have turned marriage to jamboree. He noted that the money they wasted when they said they were celebrating could be used to train their children.
The GO said, “It wasn’t so in the beginning. When you marry, you cut your coat according to your clothes. If you believe it or not, a family, a very wealthy family came all the way from America to conduct the wedding of their daughter in my office in Ebute-Metta and they were blessed. Everything started and ended in my office. They have their baby within months.
“Some of you want to be like the people of the world. I can’t even imagine some of the things I see now. People spend hundreds of thousands of Naira on ‘shoot out’ (photo shoot). And then, on the day of the wedding, the girl put on all manner of decoration.
“Those who do make-up are those who do not believe God did a good job. When God created you, He did a great job. You are wonderful and perfectly made. And you cannot find any other fellow like you, you are special.
“When you begin to paint, and you think you can improve on what God has already done. You are a fool. You can never improve on what God has done.”
Adeboye, therefore, urged members of the Church to go to their weddings as God created them, original and unique. He urged them not to bother what other “people say. But the way of the Lord. All these attitudes must stop,” he charged the people.
In another development, the GO stated that it had come to the Church’s notice that some pastors in more than one province or region would combine to plant a church abroad. This, he said, said sounded very good.
“But they then use the opportunity to say they want to go and visit the church they had planted abroad, and they spent millions of Naira for traveling expenses. If it’s for church growth, we can understand. Each pastor from different provinces in the name of visiting a church abroad, that must stop and stop right now.
“That is the sin of hypocrisy. And if you continue, you don’t change, God is at liberty to punish hypocrites. And I won’t beg on your behalf.
“You want to use the excuse that you planted a church abroad and three of you would go every year. As well as take your families with you, spend church money. And most times when they go, they bypass the mission board, the continental overseers, God is watching,” he added.
