Here, the bible is our guide.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese days, the church is becoming too worldly. A lot of our pastors today are under pressure, most of them have given in to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2022\/02\/09\/why-you-should-not-celebrate-valentines-day-mummy-go-tells-nigerians\/\">celebrate Valentine\u2019s Day<\/a> in their churches, just so that they don\u2019t lose members.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSome fear that if they do not do it, their members may say that the pastor is not a modern person. It is time to define who is a child of God. Many churches are now too worldly, and they are under pressure to do what the world does because they do not want to lose members.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLet us ask ourselves, what value does Valentine celebration add to us. Anything that will increase your desire for sin is not of Christ. I have always said it, we will never preach anything we do not see in the bible.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis church has three doors, any day you do not like what we say, just use any of the doors and leave, but we cannot preach to you anything we did not see in the bible because we want to keep our members.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He insisted that there are people in the bible who gave their lives for the propagation of the gospel but have not been celebrated. He also insisted that there are some commands by Christ, which have not been followed; instead, people find time to celebrate things they know less about.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf it is about celebrating love, it is something we should do every day. Nobody is celebrating the first man who was killed for the sake of the gospel, nobody is celebrating the feast of the martyrdom of Peter.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn breaking bread, Christ said \u2013 \u2018do this as often as you can, do this in memory of me\u2019 how often have we celebrated the death of Christ for us? How often have we done this in his memory? So, why are we not celebrating Peter, I cannot celebrate what I do not see in the bible,\u201d Nwachukwu said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr Amaechi Nwachukwu, Presiding Pastor of Rhema Deliverance Mission in Awka, Anambra State, has stated that many of his fellow pastors have given in to having Valentine&#8217;s Day celebrations in their churches because they are afraid of losing members.
