Primate Ayodele Calls For Religious Tolerance Among Nigerians On Easter Sunday

 
By People’s Voice Nigeria | News

 
The leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, has made a case for religious tolerance as Christians celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

 

In a statement released by his media office, the man of God urged Christians to remember the sufferings and pains of Jesus Christ, especially during the crucifixion. He noted that Jesus Christ laid down his life for everyone in order to redeem our souls for our maker.

 

He explained that the death of Jesus Christ was to make Christians remain one body, while calling for a total shunning of division in the Christian body regardless of the religious doctrines.

 

Primate Ayodele called on Christians to ensure the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ is worthwhile by imbibing the teachings of the Easter season.

 

Read the full statement below:

I extend my greetings to all Christians in Nigeria and worldwide as we celebrate Easter Sunday: A memorable day that connotes the resurrection of Our Lord Jesus Christ.

 

I congratulate every one of us for witnessing another Easter, which is a golden opportunity to reflect on God’s incessant love for mankind without regard for our religion, language, gender, or any other differences.

 

For Christians, Easter is the most important event in our lives because it mirrors the ultimate sacrifice of our Lord Jesus Christ, who laid down his life for us and redeemed our souls before our maker.

 

As we observe Easter Sunday, I urge us to imbibe the lessons of the season, which among many others teach us to render selfless services to humanity, inculcate the attitude of humility, and show love to one another without regard for any form of difference.

 

Most especially as a nation, I compel us to embrace religious tolerance as a virtue. We will all return to the same heaven at the end of the day, therefore, religious intolerance should never be allowed to cause division among us.

 

Jesus Christ didn’t consider religion when he paid the ultimate sacrifice with his life; we should demonstrate his selflessness as we celebrate him in our daily lives.

 

We should understand that Jesus Christ died for us all to remain in one body. To make his death worthwhile, let’s totally shun religious intolerance.

 

I wish you all a blessed Easter Sunday.
