Christ Livingspring Apostolic Ministry GO says Valentine's day is against God's principles
“Valentine’s day celebration is a human doctrine and so the church
should distance itself from anything that’s worldly and against the will
of God.”
The General Overseer of the Christ Livingspring Apostolic Ministry, CLAM, Pastor Wole Oladiyun has condemned the celebration of St. Valentine's day saying it is against God's principle.
While preaching on Sunday, February 14th, he said “Valentine’s day celebration is a human doctrine and so the church should distance itself from anything that’s worldly and against the will of God.”
He added that we should show love to those we cherish on a daily basis.
“Love
is meant to be celebrated everyday and not on a particular day; it’s
normal and expected for you to show some love to your spouse on his/her
birthday but celebrating love on Valentine’s day is against the doctrine
of God and the church,” he said.
He continued, saying, "I
speak today as the annointed of God that even when Ileave this world
for his glorious kingdom, this doctrine should remain in CLAM; let it be
known that we forbid the celebration of Valentine’s day in this church
now and forever."
"As a member of CLAM, I urge you to stay away from anything that’s not ordained of God; if they call you old school, please tell them that your God is an ancient of days,” the cleric added.
