Ekenedilichukwu Nwafor, an Anglican cleric, has urged women not to leave their homes in pursuit of greener pastures by obtaining peanuts abroad.
The invitation was delivered by Nwafor, Vicar in Charge of the Church of The Pentecost, Awka, Anglican Communion, during a sermon titled “Walking the Walk” on Sunday in Awka.
He claims that most women in professional sectors like as medicine and nursing are abandoning their marriages without consulting their husbands in order to migrate to Canada and other Western countries in pursuit of money.
According to Nwafor, such behaviours can destroy marriages and disperse the order that should exist in households, leaving children vulnerable.
According to the vicar, such acts have resulted in a life of adultery for the couple involved, as well as the children engaging in acts of incest and becoming lesbians and homosexuals, among other maladies.
According to Nwafor, as Christians who confess with their mouths, they must walk the walk at all times, in all places, and under all circumstances.
He claimed that God created the marriage institution in order to create a Godly society in which parents work together to create a healthy household that will spawn a sane society.
“The economic situation is harsh now but it is not enough reason for marriages to be abandoned for materialism.
“We should allow the holy spirit to run our lives in all things, knowing that he cares for his people and should be able to live as Christians.
“Women are the builders of homes so they should not create a vacuum in homes because of little shakes in their finances, family, and offices,” he said.
He advised parents to be directed by God’s word in order to walk the walk as prescribed by God’s word.
“Walk the talk by way of parenting. God commanded in 1st Peter 5 verses 1 to 5, that as a parent you are advised to live by example to your children in all ramifications,” he summed up.
Nwafor exhorted young people to respect their parents and follow their instructions as outlined in Ephesians 6:1–3.
“All these promises of God will rest upon us if we walk the talk in all circumstances of life,” he stated.
