THE Diocese of Egbu, Anglican Communion, has warned its members to distance themselves from secret societies and cults or risk being slammed with commensurate disciplinary measures lined up by the diocese for its erring members.
The Bishop, Professor Emmanuel Iheagwam, read the riot act while presenting his presidential address during the 10th Annual Men’s Conference at Saint John’s Anglican Church, Naze.
While recalling the Biblical injunction that “no one can serve two masters” at the same time, the Anglican cleric lamented that there are a lot of people who profess to be Christians but at the same time belong to secret societies and cults.” Are there not people who profess to be Christians and at the same time belong to secret societies or cults? Are there not people who profess to be Christians and yet go to the shrines of lesser deities to swear or take oaths of allegiance to individuals or political parties?”, Iheagwam asked.
Another Elijah! Lord, grant him protection.
or risk being slammed with commensurate disciplinary measures lined up by the diocese for its erring members.
CANA members should swell up with pride! (or from being slammed)
If you don’t let pagan practices slide, they won’t slide you.
To 2. Brian from T19:
Your quote concerns membership secret societies and cults as the reason for being disciplined. Since CANA and its membership are hardly secret, are you implying that it is a cult to another lesser deity as + Prof. Iheagwam was speaking about, or just taking the quote completely out of context?
