Nigerian Pastor Asks Christians To Stop Clapping In Church


Nigerian Pastor Abel Damina of Power City International has directed Christians to stop clapping for Jesus in church.

According to the Man of God, clapping is for mockery in the Bible and was never meant for Jesus.

Pastor Damina shared this during a lecture where he taught the congregation to unlearn and re-learn the Bible teachings.

The Man of God explained that the only way Christians should worship the Lord is by lifting their hands.

The clergyman further clarified that while it is acceptable to clap as a form of celebration for other individuals in the congregation, the Lord should be celebrated according to the doctrine by lifting their hands.
