The presiding pastor of the Abuja chapter of the House on the Rock, Pastor Uche Aigbe has caused a stir on Sunday after bringing a gun to the church
The clergyman had mounted the pulpit while carrying an AK 47 rifle.
The incident reportedly took place during the second service, which frequently has a high turnout of the congregation who comes from different parts of the Federal Capital Territory.
The clergyman had boldly walked the the pulpit while carrying a gun as many members of his congregation wondered the reason for his actions.
An unflinching Aigbe walked up to the lectern, aware of the tension his action had created, without looking at the worshippers.
But as he made attempt to open his Bible, the preacher looked up and said teasingly, “Some people are looking for my trouble. And I came here prepared.
“Today, there are some pastors with gift of divination who go about ripping people. This is why we should carry our ‘guns’ and defend ourselves. I will particularly be coming very soon for some of you sleeping in the church.”
His response threw the entire gathering into a fit of laughter as he continued preaching on “Guarding your hearts from false teachers” and “faith without work is dead.
