Nigerian music star, Divine Ikubor, professionally known as Rema, left millions of Nigerians dumbfounded with his N105 million donation to a Christ Embassy Church in Benin City, Edo State on Sunday during the church service.
The donation of the whopping sum of N105 million to the church has raised many eyebrows and this has got several people talking on social media.
One of the many Nigerians who have reacted to the generosity by the singer is none other than former Governor of Delta State, Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa’s ex-aide, Ossai Ovie Success.
Ossai, who lauded Rema for his gesture, stated that the singer’s donation would be futile if he has not given his life to Jesus Christ. He stated this via his Instagram page.
He wrote; “It’s disappointing that Rema donated N105m to Christ Embassy without giving his life to God.”
“It will be disappointing to God for anyone to give money to his church without being born again.”
“While Rema’s N105m donation to Christ Embassy is a commendable gesture, it would be spiritually futile if he hasn’t surrendered his life to God.”
“Giving to the church without being born again may not resonate with God, as He desires our hearts and souls, not just our wealth.”
“I applaud Rema’s generosity and willingness to support the gospel, but I hope he recognizes the eternal significance of surrendering his life to God.”
“The talents and resources God bestows upon us are meant to be used for His glory and to win souls for His kingdom.”
“With the kingdom of darkness actively seeking to claim souls, it’s crucial we utilize every opportunity and gift to bring people to God.”
“The most valuable offering we can present to God is our lives, surrendered to Him in devotion and service.”
“May Rema’s donation be a step towards a deeper spiritual commitment, and may his talents be used to further God’s kingdom.”
