The General Superintendent of Deeper Christian Life Ministry, Pastor William Kumuyi, has disagreed with Pope Francis’s position on same-sex marriage, saying such a practice is not biblical and not in line with Jesus Christ’s command to Christians.
The Catholic pontiff had on Tuesday, stirred controversy when he granted permission for priests to bestow blessings upon same-sex marriage couples.
But Kumuyi, while speaking on Wednesday at the opening of the Deeper Life Global Crusade at the church’s International Conference Centre along the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, insisted that Jesus never approved same-sex marriage as his command was for a man to get married to a woman.
