RCCG condemned
same sex marriage, which was recently endorsed by the American Supreme Court,
saying “we don’t support it.
There is nowhere in the Bible where God said people of the same sex can get married. The stand of the church is very clear and it states; one man, one wife.

Similarly,
the church clarified its position about Christians in politics, noting that it
does not bar individual members of the church from participating in politics
but “we are not accountable for their performance. “We pray for those in power
as the Bible has enjoined us to do. That is our stand but we believe that by
the end of this year, Nigerians will have cause to say that all is well.”
Redeemed
Christian Church of God, RCCG, yesterday, confirmed that its new three
kilometre square auditorium expected to host 12 million persons will be one of
the venues for its 63rd annual convention slated to begin August 9.
The three kilometre
by three kilometre Arena, still under construction, is located on Simawa Road,
some distance from the outgoing one and half kilometre by one kilometre arena
which was commissioned in 2000 with a capacity to sit one million worshippers.
Addressing newsmen at the church’s Redemption Camp, Head of Media and Public
Relations, Pastor Segun Adegbiji with support from several ministers of the
mission, said the new arena will host plenary sessions of a few evenings of the
week long programme on an experimental basis.
According to
Pastor Adegbiji adequate arrangements have been put in place to host
participants from the 24 regions of the church spread across 188 countries of
the world. He quoted the General Overseer of the church, Pastor Enoch Adeboye
as warning unserious.
