People who don’t believe in God’s existence are fools – Ooni of Ife
Ọọni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, the Ojaja II has described people who do not believe in the existence of God almighty as fools, while stressing that Jesus Christ is the Lord of lords and that He turns shame into celebration.
Ooni said this during the grand finale of New Year Prayers organised by the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) at Afewonro Park, Enuwa Square, Ile-Ife, Osun state on Saturday.
News Agency of Nigeria reports tha, Oba Ogunwusi, who led different Christian worship songs and praises during the Christian event said it remains a good thing to always extol the Lord Jesus Christ and appreciate Him.
“When I look back, I observe that my life is full of God’s wonders and miracles despite all challenges faced, but today, the Lord gave me victory over them all.
“I sat down here last year with a lot of tribulations and storms of life which I cannot explain, but to God be the Glory that my shame has turned to celebration.
“I observed where I started, hitherto, the Lord has helped me. It is clearly stated to me that the Lord is Alive. A fool is anyone that says there’s no God,” Ooni of Ife declared.
However, he urged Christ’s believers to steadfastly hold unto Christ, their Lord, adding: “Truly, He is the son of God and He is the one that lives with him on the throne.”
The traditional ruler furthered that there was no one who works with God that loses, saying money was not everything in life, while adding that sound health, safety, and feeding among others were part of God’s goodness.
Ooni also restated his commitment to serve God and humanity throughout the rest of his life as well as always working for the growth and development of Ile-Ife, Osun, the Yoruba race and the country at large.
