‘What’s the matter with you?’ – Pastor Chris slams Nigerian Christians taking COVID-19 vaccines

Pastor Chris Oyakhilome of LoveWorld Incorporated aka Chris Embassy church, has condemned the action of Nigerian Christians receiving AstraZeneca vaccine against coronavirus.

He questioned their faith in the word of the Lord. He added that they are healers and so should not trust in vaccines for protection from diseases.

In the video which has gone viral since on Monday, Pastor Chris, also faulted the call by the government for pastors to convince their members to take the COVID-19 vaccine.

Pastor Chris said: “What happened to you? Where is the word of God in your mouth? Do you realise if you believe in the word of God the way you believe in this vaccine, there will be power in your mouth? He made us healers. What’s wrong? What happened to you? When did we start making such recommendations to God’s people? For God’s sake, think again!

“How can they send to the churches, go tell them to take the vaccines. Listen, if I say to someone, you shall live but not die, that’s it to him. Isn’t that the Bible that you read? Isn’t that the scripture that you read? Where is your God of Elijah, your God of Moses, your God of Peter, James and John? What’s the matter with you?”
