Revd. Chris Okotie of the Household of God Church International Ministries says Nigeria is on the verge of a major crisis.
He said that the crisis would however be a precursor to the nation’s rebirth.
Okotie stated this in a Friday statement while reacting to a 2014 sermon by one Bosun Emmanuel.
Emmanuel, who is said to be a representative of the Nigeria Christian Elders Forum (NCEF), in the audio message warned that Nigeria would be plagued with many security challenges.
The audio message trended on social media, with many users claiming that it should have sufficed as a warning to Nigerians not to elect President Muhammadu Buhari in 2015.

In his reaction, Okotie said, “The message from Bosun Emmanuel is arrant heterodoxy deriving from abysmal ignorance of sound biblical interpretation of visions and revelations.
“Nigeria is not a theocratic state like Israel. It is a client nation for God. There is a vast difference. Nigeria is at the cusp of a major crisis which is a precursor to its rebirth. Pristine forces which have been a perennial impediment to the fulfillment of Nigeria’s prophetic destiny are about to be pulverised.
“God cannot judge the body of Christ. That would be tantamount to judging Christ a second time. This is blasphemy at its apogee. We must compare spiritual things with spiritual to engender sound biblical interpretation.
“Let charlatans and self styled prophets avoid the electrifying currents of eschatology where deep calleth unto deep.”
