A controversial ordination ritual by a bishop in a Cherubim and Seraphim Church in Southwest Nigeria has sparked widespread debate among Christians. A viral video of the event has drawn criticism, with many questioning its biblical basis and expressing concern over the growing trend of unconventional religious practices. Some argue that different denominations have unique traditions that should be respected, while others insist the act is misleading and contradicts Christian teachings.
In response, the Cherubim and Seraphim Unification Church of Nigeria has distanced itself from the bishop involved, stating that neither he nor the individuals in the video are affiliated with the organization. The church condemned the ritual, calling it "horrific" and "despicable before God and man." It further clarified that while anyone can wear a white garment, true members of the Unification Church are recognized by its leadership. The controversy has reignited discussions about the need for stricter regulation of religious practices in Nigeria to prevent misleading doctrines.
