The
Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG, has issued a directive banning grooms
and groomsmen from wearing of long beards to wedding programmes to be conducted
by the Church.
According
to information in the memo, all grooms to get married in the church and their
groomsmen must be checked properly to ensure they are not with Taliban Beard.
The
church made this known in the memo released by the Assistant General Overseer
in charge of Admin and Personnel.
The
memo signed by the assistant general overseer, Pastor Johnson Odesola
(Administration and Personnel), also contains other important rules which are
expected to be followed by workers and ministers of the church.
According
to Pastor Odesola, the directive came as a result of report of “certain loose
practices that have been adopted during conduct of weddings in the Church”.
The
memo further reads:
”Ministers
who have the responsibility of assessing the gown of the bride, must also
ensure that the outfits of the bridesmaids are checked to ensure that the
standards of the Church are not compromised.
“Prior
to the wedding programme, the groom and his groommen's must be assessed to
ensure that they are not wearing Taliban beards, which is against the doctrines
of the Church.
“Every
worker or department that will officiate must in wedding programmes should
appear strictly in formal outfit.
“All
ministers should be guided by these directives, especially in parishes of the
Mission that are licensed to conduct weddings."
Recently,
the Church issued a directive mandating intending couples to go for medical
tests before wedding and this has continued to generate mixed reactions among
members across the world.
IS
THIS HOW GOD COUNTS AND KEEPS RECORDS OF SINS?
WHO
THEN WILL MAKE HAPPEN??
