Pastor Enoch Adeboye, the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God has come out to warn Nigerians against viewing nudity online. He recently revealed this amid the #SilhouetteChallenge on social media, and Nigerians have been reacting.
According to him, watching those clips and viewing those photos have a way of quenching the spirit, and no true Christian should tolerate that.
He added that that it is always best to stay away from sin because the God who helps man fulfil his destiny hates disobedience to his commandments.
His words, “What are the things that the flesh usually tells you to do? They are listed in Galatians 5:19-21 as you must have earlier read in today’s Bible text. You think that you can view a few pictures or videos on social media where someone is almost n*de and it is okay.”
“You are quenching the Spirit. That little window you give to indulge the flesh will strengthen it such that you would find yourself going back to those pictures/videos after that time. The Bible is very clear – don’t ever do anything that will quench the Spirit. Never!”
“Do you know that there are some things that are not sins, but can strengthen the flesh to the point of eventually quenching the Spirit? Examples include not fasting (Psalm 35:13), not being able to abstain from s*x even with your legally wedded spouse (1 Corinthians 7:5), not praying (Ephesians 6:18), not studying your Bible (Psalm 119:9-11) and not fellowshipping with the brethren (Hebrews 10:25). From Galatians 5:16, we see that it is necessary to always walk in the Spirit so that you will not fulfil the works of the flesh.”
“If you take a break from spiritual exercises, you will eventually fulfil the works of the flesh; there is no holiday in the spirit realm. “Can two walk together, except they be agreed?” – Amos 3:3”
“I stay far away from sin because I know that God is the only One who can help me to fulfil my destiny and He hates sin.”
