Pastor Femi Lazarus Reveals Coalition Of Ministries Have Been Formed To Bring Down Platform Of Anyone Who Insults Pastors

Pastor Femi Lazarus has asserted that the public has no right to openly criticize the church or its pastors.

He stated that the church has an order of hierarchy and it is the duty of the pastor to maintain that order.

He added that the church will no longer stay silent while ministers and their ministry are criticised online.

He said: "The matter of the local church and the body of Christ is not a conversation for every Tom, Dick and Harry

He added that the hierarchy in church means that as a pastor, he has the authority to call music ministers to order.

However, he added: "A music artist is not a kingdom based minister, hence a music artist is not for the church."

He went on to highlight differences between a music artist and a music minister

He added that when he is correcting singers, he is speaking to music ministers, not to music artists.

This is after he received heat for condemning gospel singers for charging huge sums to minister in churches.

Speaking in church, Femi Lazarus further stated that three ministries have joined forces to form a coalition and they will now work to pull down the platform of anyone who criticises pastors or their ministry online.

He said: "The moment you go online to publicise what is wrong about the ministry, in one minute, the three ministries will come together, there's a platform now, we'll bring down your platform immediately."

His threat has sparked outrage and Nigerians have gone on X to criticise him.

THE MATTER OF THE BODY OF CHRIST IS NOT A CONVERSATION FOR BLOGGERS.

MINISTERS, IF GOD DID NOT CALL YOU INTO FULL TIME MINISTRY, GET A JOB!
